    D&D 1E Favorite Obscure Rules from TSR-era D&D

    I don't know how the book says to do it, but I would rule that it moves at 10 feet per inch inside the cave and when it exits, the remaining inches are now going 10 yards per inch.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That one was call doctor after you die! I mean, if I stop breathing while sleeping, I'm not going to be in a position to be calling anyone, let alone my doctor! It reminds me of years ago when my cell phone provider changed insurance companies and sent me the booklet on what was covered and...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's always reassuring to check your prescribed cough medicine and see this warning. This medicine may cause serious side effects. Stop using this medicine and call your doctor at once if you have: weak or shallow breathing, breathing that stops during sleep; Sure. I'll just wake up 3 days...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Brainstorming another Fey PC

    I made a character in 3.5e that was human, but really short. Like jockey short. Then I gave him fey blooded from the Unearthed Arcana, which gave him a few fey like abilities as he leveled up. I chose Ranger/Sorcerer for his classes. Primarily Ranger with a splash of Sorcerer to give him a few...

    D&D 5E Escaping from (rope) bonds... What is your ruling?

    That's more realism than I'm into, but I do know what you mean. A guy in my group who I have known since junior highschool popped his kneecap out in either junior high or early in high school. It then popped out a few times a year after that.

    D&D 5E Escaping from (rope) bonds... What is your ruling?

    See, dislocating is damage. Then hit dice to heal the damage and put the shoulder back in. :P But seriously, what you suggest works as well. There's no correct way to rule something like this. Even the purists who only allow it as a straight dex or str check aren't wrong.

    D&D 5E Escaping from (rope) bonds... What is your ruling?

    I also see sleight of hand working like your acrobatics portion on small scale. Wiggling fingers around to pull/push ends or move loops over/under something to get room. And really, I'd probably do Con(acrobatic/athletics) to dislocate a shoulder and get out. That seems more like an endurance...

    AI is stealing writers’ words and jobs…

    To be fair, at least it recommended non-toxic glue. :P

    D&D 5E Advanced D&D or "what to minimally fix in 5E?"

    Honor and Sanity absolutely require learning other rules. There are no rules for either in the base system. You have to learn and understand all the ways in which honor and sanity can affect you both positively and negatively. Then we can add in the new Fear and Horror rules. These are...
