@Levistus's_Leviathan I wanted to draw a couple character portraits to show you how I have envisioned a few paladins I've played/made, but I haven't had the combo of time/energy needed. I hope to do it later this week. Meanwhile, I got reminded of the Lightsworns from the Yugioh card game. In...

It is in Neotrad, and other playstyles. You two are arguing from completely different worlds.

@Levistus's_Leviathan I'm sorry we as a Community failed you. Though I'm not entirely sure what a solution looks like for you. Your OP and follow up lacked clarity in that regard. What do you envision when you visualize a solution?

I'm a fan of Gazette era Greyhawk. However, I'm also a fan of going even further back in the timeline, and of messing with some of the established NPCs.

IMO, I prefer the Paladin as a champion for Good (capital Good) and strictly tangential to dieties. Someone who may worship good deities, but only because these deities are aligned with Good, not because they somehow define or determine Good. In the same way, a Paladin should and would raise...

It's almost as if a certain someone just went over the thesaurus and didn't bother to check the dictionary definitions...

Have you played Minecraft? n_n

In this tangent of objective Evil and Good, I've always held that Good (noun) and Evil (noun) are absolute ideas, even in our world. What we will always disagree with is what is good(adjective) and evil(adjective).

It's almost as if we needed a way for subclass to be meaningfull at all levels and not just starting at an arbitrary later point.... To me the Good part was the important part. To take the hard route if that means saving more people or doing more good, not just going the easy way for the sake...

I think that the best backstories have more open questions than answers.

@Jaiken I don't have a resin printer, but as far as I remember, after the mini is printed, it has to be cleaned in isopropyl alcohol to make it safe to handle -you should never handle an unwashed resin print with your bare hands-. Then, you need to cure it under UV light, be it a lamp or in the...

Somehow this jumped to mind. (First five frames) https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0240.html

@tetrasodium Well, I kind of self ascribe to neotrad, though that is mostly because I found it descriptive of how I play rather than something I found cool on the internet and that I adapted to. So, the following is more my own experience and might be inaccurate to it. To me Neo-trad is...

Crawford's opinion is only worth for new version onward. He wasn't there twenty or so years ago when they designed the original class, and he wasn't the lead designer when 5e was first made ten years ago. He doesn't even have monopoly over current sorcerer onward, because there is also...

Fair...

You know that if something is innate, it wasn't acquired, do you?

They actually came first in Dragon Magazine.

Funny how much sorcerer hate there is in the comments yet wizard has twice the votes.

I think this is worth its own thread.

Just notice that in 1e something being a class or a subclass was basically purely taxonomic. It would get a full unique writeup down to its own level up charts regardless. Back then the distinction didn't even matter, but right now if a concept isn't a class, it basically doesn't exist in a...
