Like the character sheet. Two thoughts. No real place to mark that your character is synthetic. Second, I think on the backside I would create an area where you record experience gained and how it was spent. Just a bit of book keeping so that you can trace experience to make sure everything...

I assume the idea behind a second axe head would be the same as having the back side of your sword edge sharpened, so that you have more freedom to swing. A single head on an axe means you have to completely reverse the weapon when when swinging. At least it would seem to me, I am not a a...

I do believe that the double headed battleaxe is purely a creation of hollywood and fantasy novels. I remember reading that there was no real evidence that the existed historically. Would love to hear from someone that knew more or knew different.

The bard is just fine as long as the campaign in question is more sophisticated than a DPS race followed by another DPS rate as your part walks from one fight to the next. If your campaign is all about killing monster after monster after monster then certain classes will appear to be substandard.

Maybe one day we can all live in a world like the Expanse where everyone who does not want to work or does not want to work on things society values can live on Basic with a guarantee of a certain level of living and free universal healthcare good enough that someone dying in their 80s is...

Yep because comparing computers and nitch hobby activities are the same thing. Try a comparison that actually makes sense.

Okay, I would like to quit my current job and start a new career where I dont play video games, I dont rate video games, I watch other people play video games and the rate the games and the players. Please make sure that I am financially secure with full access to everything to make my life...

All of this skips the point. This should not be a discussion of politics and national healthcare. It should be about whether it is anyone's fault except the game creator who chooses a career path that cannot financially support him. Starving artists have existed since the time of the...

This topic is not about either of them. You try to make a career out of something that pays very poorly and this is what happens. You become unable to handle financial hardship when it happens. Trying to blame politics and the current medical system because it does not allow you to follow...

No there is nothing we can do. It is called market economy. There are lots of people in the world who wish they could live off their hobbies. Wanting to live off bring a game designer sounds like fun. A vast majority find it doesn't work, there is nothing inherently wrong with that truth.

Ummm? Get over it?

Pass. A little too much corporate whoring for me.

I can see that being a no win situation for everyone. Some people are just waiting to be extra on critical role, while others basically see DnD as a smaller scale tabletop battlefield game. It seems to rarely work out well when the two groups are mixed. Personally I think I would have enjoyed...

Wanted to add a final comment to the thread. This is 5E this is not DnD or ADnD. This is the "balanced" edition where you don't need stupid rules like Paladin codes to "balance" what was an OP class. So the reality is that in 5E Paladin codes are fluff for the character. They should not be...

So you entertained yourself in game by intentionally being irritating to the other players?
