Archetypes and Heritages

Zweihander looks interesting to me, though similar to Warhammer so I do wonder how the experience might differ Outgunned is one I want to try too and has anyone played the Adventure Time RPG yet?

If its fun and makes them feel good - just do it! You're the DM, you can also do cool tricks to compensate

Scaly skin is a common description of eczema and similar dermatological conditions and importantly scaling is a common issue for Chihuahua and similar hairless dogs - so really saying they had scaly skin doesnt suggest reptilian traits at all, and paired with dog-like makes me think of Kobolds...

I dont use FR per se, but its so expansive that I will refer back to its Lore and use its locations, factions and characters and set pieces as inspiration for my own games

Dragon # 65 Where are the missing dragons 1982 :) Anyway I've just been reading up on the Laidly Wyrm of Spindlestone Heughs and got to thinking that having dragons as species was probably a mistake from the start. The powerful True Dragons should really be unique entities on the level of...

Entirely depends on theme - for instance if I'm doing a Haunted England setting then obviously the monster palette matters and the encounter sites get built around them, if the setting is more generic then the locations and relationships get built first and the monsters plugged in later as added...

I'd say Golarion is Modernized Greyhawk (low magic grit) with FR uber-kitchen sink style (and a dash of pulp horror) Nothing, its a spiritual successor to 3.5 Living Greyhawk by design

I wasn't excited by it - but I'm not a fan of Zombie plagues

I like the middle ground and think that in most cases groups and certainly DMs fall back into what theyre comfortable with anyway, so even if it is a kitchensink the DM and players will make it more specific to their taste and keep it from losing cohesiveness and becoming a meaningless...

its a good song and better production than many 'tiktok hits'

its because they are trying to capture entirely different traditions. On one hand the original gnome is the Paracelsian elemental - tiny, secretive, subterranean creatures associated with gemstones. This type feature as the Nomes of Narnia and lead to the original Blackmoor gnomes and later...

Genasi/Aasimar tend to blend into each other whereas Goliath pick up the elemental traits for variety, they have the largeness making them distinct from humans plus all the deep lore of Giants - both DnD and IRL.

depending on the age of the carcass I can do that in the real world with just a few minutes of examination. One of my big issues with DnD is when things that should just be skills get turned into spells. Even the idea of communing with spirits while fantastic is still mundane in a world were...

In 5e: Ideals/Bonds/Flaws in the form of Fate Character Aspects compelled for Inspiration Fate Scene/Campaign Aspects compelled for Advantage Dungeon World Fronts Give Scenes and Plots Fate Stress Boxes (which is the same thing as a clock) Aspects are also a great tool for Social Encounters -...

how do I up-vote this?

So for the sake of debate - what is the Ranger fantasy as you would define it? for me "Skilled Hunter and Guide thriving on the borders between civilisation and wilderness" and personally, I dont see anything in that ranger fantasy that requires it cast spells - it does need a better...

What is that Solution thing? Whats a question thread? You can do more than just polls?

I think it may have been better if they did it all animated
