    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel leads the charge, running towards the doors to ensure that they don't close, and no one gets out. Move and Dash 70' (35x2) to get to the door (AD36). Concentrating on Bless. 5/10.

    D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

    1d20+0=10 vs DC 12 or Prone, FAIL. Tommi finds himself prone on an altar, the unfeeling hands of a skeleton holding him down, slowly squeezing his throat. He moves to break the foul creatures grapple, even as he feels the grip momentarily weaken when one of Escella's fiery bolts breaks off a...

    D&D 5E Thoughts on Tier 3-4 Satyr martial in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    The Rune Knight or the Paladin sound the most interesting to me -- nothing in what you've written suggests Bladelock is there for story reasons. I would choose The Rune Knight -- a 12' tall satyr swinging an axe would be terrifying and loads of fun -- but the Fairy (and maybe the unknown...

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

    In my view, Acrobatics has nothing to do with this. Slight of Hand only, modified if the escapee is proficient with ropes. I have wanted better rope rules for a decade now.

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    "We're not done yet," says the Colonel, letting go of the Ogress's ears and bolting for the kitchen doors that have just closed, before they can be barred. He holds his hands to his mouth and ... silence. Until, BOOM. Thunder erupts from the location of the door. Move as needed, I'm presuming...

    D&D (2024) Check Out The 2025 Monster Manual Alternate Cover!

    While I am not wild about the Mind Flayer, I do think all three go very well together, and will be very pretty on my shelf next to each other.

    (OOC) Fitz's Folly (ToA PBP)

    @TaranTheWanderer -- you rolled for Weed last round; do you want to do so again?

    D&D (2024) Which section of the 2024 PHB will you check out first?

    While I appreciate the merits of being a single-issue voter, there has been, from what I can tell, absolutely no discussion of this particular change in relation to the playtest documents. Do you have any reason to believe this change will be made, or is even on the designers' radar? I would...

    D&D 5E (IC) Fitz's Folly

    The sudden appearance of... that giant creature, whatever it was, frightened Miss Imogen deeply. She had been holding back, hoping that this fight, any fight, could be avoided. But it was not to be. Time seemed to have frozen, her allies weren't attacking, and she didn't know why. But there was...

    D&D General What are humans?

    That would indeed be very useful. Sadly, the feat isn't predictive, it only allows you to identify past events. Scenario 1: DM: You enter a room. The floor appears to be wet. PC: I use Rainsmelling. DM: It is a room. You are indoors. It did not rain. Scenario 2: DM: You enter an open-air...

    D&D General What are humans?

    PRO: All humans get a bonus feat at level 1. CON: It's this one -- Rainsmelling.

    D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

    Lunn's rebuke surprises him, since Lunn had been standing next to Tommi as they had approached. Lunn knows Tommi needs to move in combat. "Just giving you room to swing your axe, my friend!" he says hopefully, with an unbalanced smile.

    D&D General What it means for a race to end up in the PHB, its has huge significance

    I am hoping that was just a test balloon, to see if and how people respond. Too many races have darkvision; it would be bettr, in my view, to find ways of removing it form others (elves -- lookin' at you!) than add it to all.

    D&D (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    Mention of strongholds in the back-cover text strongly suggests that the Bastions rules will be in the DMG and not the PHB. I'm good with that.

    Whatever makes it best for you. I am always grateful for what you do here.

    D&D 5E (IC) Scourge of Daggerford

    "Come on, you all!" shouts Tommi, either to his companions or to the Skeletons. He wedges himself between the altar and the one skeleton still in a corner, and strikes with Gutter. The rusty blade connects Move 5' to AV47 to make room for others. I'm assuming Lunn is adjacent and so Sneak...

    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

    The Colonel sees the Giant go down, and is proud as the lad on the roof lowers his bow. Lord Falldur will be proud of the man he's become. Meanwhile, he is running along the roof, towards the corner of the building and leaps into the air, soaring down off the building onto the Ogress. He lands...
