Monkeys, Apes all have opposable thumbs and thus tool use, octopus, elephants, otters and racoons have fine manipulators though maybe disadvantage on slight of hand. Those centaur climbing rules crack me up, but it does take care of the biggest restriction on dog/wolf and other medium sized...

I'm thinking a stealth option would be best (hence my last post mentioning that we should aim to avoid/minimise any carnage - I can cast Pass without Trace) Also noting that both Shade-9 and Aywin dont need to breath so can survive underwater (so thats 3 of us for the dive team - any others?)

TEAM LAKEFILTRATE - SUBJECT:SHADE-9 - Mark of the fallen star. Shade-9 remained back with the kayaks, motionless in a shaded recess, just outside the glow of the sword and lanterns. He observed as the two Teams integrated, logging behaviour, accessing profiles and making status assessments The...

If it makes you feel better I had forgot about them too, until I noticed that Team Caves had found one. But then Id also forgot about needing to find a staff until now too - I thought we were here to kill a Dracolich :o !

I've seen PCs play a Leopard Ranger without issue, mobility and speed outclass humanoid PCs, they get natural weapons (bite 1d6), stealth and pounce (knock prone) is great when working with allies. Hands arent an issue since others in the party are there to open doors and manipulate objects. The...

yeah I can accept that, I suppose I was focussing on the nihilism and skeptisim of the protagonist as the fantasy rather than the nature of the Land itself. Its a grim psychological venture into utopianism, but it is ultimately restorative rather than revealing a false idyllic

The Dying Earth - post apocalyptic decadence and decay The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant - Tragic, cynical and morally ambivalent The Black Company - Mercenaries slogging through grim and morally grey wars Neverwhere - London’s hidden history is dark and full of human suffering American Gods -...

heh Bannerets back and its reactive boosts and emphasis on positioning and action economy are nice features that give it flavoursome niche :)

for the sake of cool Prince-of-Persia style parkour tricks I'd rule that If they also have a climb speed, they can end their turn clinging to a solid surface without falling. And even if they don’t have a climb speed, they can make a Dex (Acrobatics) check (DC 10–20 depending on surface) to...

The Five Olympic Rings represent Asia, Africa, Europe, America (combined), Australia/Oceania - but of course the count can range from four to eight depending on the arrangement and context. The most 'scientific' approach is probably using the seven major tectonic plates (African, Antarctic...

TEAM LAKE - SUBJECT:SHADE-9 - Convergence at the Upper Lake Shade-9 merged back into the shadows, camouflaged, where the routines were familiar and he could keep overwatch as Guldred returned to his own kind and the Team assessed the way ahead. Although he had been updating his heuristic...

The party hearing voices in the rock is a great way to handle them. Xorn are intelligent and speak terran, which is sensed as tremors and groans in the ground. These serve as warnings for others to stay away, even if those others do not understand the intent. Xorn dwell in the deep bedrock...

The Scandal is that the Lorwyn digital supplement is only available to those who have already purchased the $160 Forgotten Realms Ultimate Bundle which D&D Beyond is proudly promoting as the most expansive take on the Forgotten Realms in D&D history. People hate it because its a digital only...

I agree, I loved the options and variety of 3.x, its the closest DnD has gotten to a 'build your own' system while still being class-based, and I liked that. I didnt like the presentation of 4e, got turned off and so didnt play it (Pathfinder and FATE were there). However after (reluctantly)...
