I think honestly Snow White is best as a Glamour Bard (you know she used enthralling performance on those Dwarves! And Mantle of Majesty to get them to "wash up"!) variant Human with the Eldritch Adept (Beast Speech) feat as their variant feat
Cinderella is definitely an Archfey Warlock (fairy...
I mean the pathfinder version certainly looks WAY cooler than the D&D version
Has there been any statements from either eOne/WotC/Paizo on this yet?
Could there be any realm where the art was licensed for this poster specifically because it looked good and they didn't think everyone in the...
I like the dis to saves and also the double width ideas, both of them make it more thematically cool and also a little extra.
But ... these hags aren't dumb and I'm sure they've thought about lightning or whatever. They're ancient magical creatures after all.
Custom Lineage where you appear as a high-elf, but you can use the feat to pick up something like Magic Initiate (Sorcerer) with Lightning Lure, Shocking Grasp, and Fog Cloud as your spell (or something like that). Finding a DM willing to swap a cantrip for Air Genasi stuff isn't a guarantee...
Wonderful people out there developed "Sane" prices for 5e magic items as found in the DMG.
The PDF is wonderful... but I've always wanted it in Excel form for sorting and slicing.
Well, here it is... enjoy.
Just use the new Custom Lineage and call it whatever you want. Feats can replicate many racial abilities depending on what you want to do.
Walking crystal person? Check.
Groot? Check
With the custom lineage it's all about the flavor you and your DM can agree on to work in the game.
I agree - I think all lightning spells should have the adv on attack or dis to saves for those in metal armor. No reactions would also be nice but would probably be too much.
For me my biggest issue with Lightning Bolt in particular is that it's a "Self" spell and therefore a sorcerer can't use...
In many ways the War Wizards of Cormyr in FR lore, under Vanderghast anyway, functioned like this with their "mind reaming" spells keeping an eye on nobles and other threats alike to protect the throne.
Though, they obviously weren't nearly as fully tilt 1984, it's a start for sure.
Detect...
I agree with the OP, that I like my classes to impact the fiction of my world, though this discussion seems to have gone far afield from the original proposition.
That said, it's not the only way to play the game. For me it is.
What is the impact on the world around for people who are born...
So.. you want to have all the abilities of a Valor Bard (better fighting) and a Lore Bard (three more skills and cutting words) ... and you want to get rid of the ability that would let you just take the spell you think Bards should have (Hex)? You say you want to focus on Bard's skills... but...
The most resonant word I can think of when I started playing 3.0/3.5 is/was "freedom" after playing 2e as my starting point about 8 years before 3.0 came out.
My very first 3.0 character was a dwarven sorcerer. Because. I. Could!
