    Ravenloft, the Movie

    I wonder if they could do a psychological ghost movie with the Dark Powers as The villains, highlight the nature of Ravenloft as a prison where the residents are locked in endless repeating cycles. Make the Mist the active threat and show the land and architecture changing at a whim. You could...

    Ravenloft, the Movie

    I could see it as a movie. And it might do okay with gothic horror fans - but it is a bit derivative, so how would you make it special?

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's Write A High Level Adventure

    I agree that High Level play often does require tailoring adventures specific to a play group, since no combination is ever the same, but I do think that there are some principles of high level play that can be used as a foundation. Thats one of the reasons I really liked Lair Actions and...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Using player knowledge is an issue but 1. Make sure the PCs come across statues that are just statues, so players dont build expectation 2. Use decoy statues that are just statues with the Gargoyles hidden in the shadows (stealth bonus) or amongst rubble (Ruins Lurkers) 3. give some Gargoyles...

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    I am the King of Atlantis! You will show me some respect! “Fear not! No danger shall befall you while Aquaman—King of the Seven Seas!—yet draws breath!” Aquaman has been a Bro since the 1980s Justice League International, but Mamoa is mostly the 1990s Barbarian Aquaman with some New 52 swagger...

    D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

    I dont know if thats true, rather it would seem the DM has not been clear enough in defining the limits of their setting. I know its hard to say No but that is something that needs to be addressed in session zero. Ive done curated lineage list with anything else having to be justified with a...

    D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

    yeah its pretty much Sandbox set up, with the assumption that the Circus travels to the next town and gets involved with whatever is happening there ...

    D&D General XP: How Do You Like To Earn It?

    Obstacles/Milestones - I like to have a steady progression of Adventure Acts, with rewards coming as obstacles are overcome and an Act completed Fiat/1983 - year XP rewards can be fun, but XP accounting is meh and sometimes its fun to stay at the same tier forever

    What Are Your Favourite Movie Quotes?

    because if a machine, a Terminator, can learn the value of human life, maybe we can too.

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    It didnt? The first Aquaman movie did well financially and got good fan scores. For a while it was the best movie in the DCU (I'd say it still is) As for Gal, I think should be awesome as Talia Al Ghul

    D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

    you could do what I did and turn them in to an actual Circus! The Grand Circus Maximus would tour the empire putting on shows and getting in to adventures (even being the adventures as the Marques and beast pens made its own dungeon:)) but yeah it is an issue, let the odd characters be in and...

    D&D 5E (2024) Lorwyn: First Light Released on D&D Beyond
