    D&D General D&D Beyond: How do you add a ranger's primal companion?

    That's my problem exactly. I don't see a completed and fully tallied stat block. It drives me nuts. D&D Beyond is such a helpful tool and I like how you can reference things quickly, like spells. However, there are things it lacks and it's not always the laid out well. I find that frustrating.

    D&D General D&D Beyond: How do you add a ranger's primal companion?

    As I understand it, the way you add an animal companion, sidekick, etc. in D&D Beyond is to go to the Extras tab and click Manage Extras. I can see the beast companion from 2014, but there appears to be no way to select Beast of the Land, etc. Am I missing something here?

    D&D General Friday Fun: What Are Your Top 3 Playable Species

    What, no minotaurs? I love me some minotaurs. Richard A. Knaak really brings them to life.

    D&D General Left the Campaign / Need Closure for Character

    Recently I asked if I should leave my friend's Spelljammer game, due to my work schedule and a few other issues. The consensus was that I should and I have left on agreeable terms. I'm welcome back any time. Thing is, I really loved my character - a halfling aberrant mind sorcerer/GOO warlock...

    Margaret Weis Productions used it as the cover of Races of Ansalon.

    I recognize that character, but I don't know from where. Found it - Glitter from Kidd Video.

    D&D General Should I leave my friend's Spelljammer game?

    I just messaged my DM and let him know that I was leaving. He was very understanding, and we have left things to where I can re-enter at any time if some things changed. So that all went good. I just messaged the other players to let them know. I haven't heard anything back yet. I wanted to...

    D&D General Should I leave my friend's Spelljammer game?

    10pm is the end time, but sometimes the game goes long. Plus time to go home and a little wind-down time in the evening. Then I have to get up around 5:15am. It's not exactly 7 hours, and I'm not as young as I used to be. Still good looking, though. ;) Okay, so he's been back into it for a...

    D&D General Should I leave my friend's Spelljammer game?

    The bad part is, I really like this character. That’s what is making me feel indecisive.

    D&D General Should I leave my friend's Spelljammer game?

    I am playing in a Tuesday night Spelljammer game, and I am debating on leaving. When we started playing, I was unemployed. The DM, who is an old college friend of mine, was going through a divorce and I agreed to join the game to help him get his DM'ing shoes under him again. His then-wife...

    D&D General What character sheets do you use and what do you put on them?

    I'm curious to know if you use the official character sheet, a third party sheet, D&D Beyond's online sheet (with PDF download?), or your own custom sheet? Also, how much detail do you put on them? The full text of your abilities? The name of the ability and the source page number? Something else?

    D&D General Which species would you like to see being introduced next for 2024 D&D?

    I want to see the shardmind return, but maybe with some different art. I wasn't a huge fan of the 4e art for them. Maybe with some subraces. They have such great lore. The vanara! They were a race of monkey people inspired by Chinese lore. Plus, they're cute!

    D&D General Oh Please give me some Happy Backgrounds!!

    Ginny Di addressed this very topic. Her video got me to thinking about creating characters without tragic backstories. To me, tragic backstories are fine, but they have become cliche'. So I'm challenging myself these days to come up with characters that aren't tragic. I've had some great...

    D&D General Is the SCAG Still Useful?

    Now that the new Forgotten Realms books are out, I'm wondering if they cover everything from the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide. Is that book still a keeper, or has everything from it been redone?
