Grognard- I mean spellcheck does not even pick it up and when I Googled it it dates back to the Napoleon era. Min/Max- Can throw in with Optionizer and Jerk. Know it when you see it. Abbreviator- anyone that assumes I know the shorthand slang of the newest book and does not use the title...

I like the idea to make them a bit more unique. Do other monsters have something for them. I can see something like this for ghouls and even shadows/wraiths. Steal from movies with cults of human cattle are devoted to them or evil lairs where humans a kept for food and bled to prevent...

Do you really have no idea where the campaign is going to go or be? I like the idea of creating things with the players and seeing what develops, but not having a few ideas to choose from would not be my thing. I see why you want a start on things, but no skeleton to hang some meat on makes it...

I thought you made Fred Flintstone sized ribs and hung the head in your new tavern. I have seen dragonscale armor that is scale mail with resistance to the dragon energy type. A heart can be made into potions if heroism or invulnerability. Powdered horn can be used to boost spells and make...

Are you saying that 16ft tall blue human-looking people do not scream water creature to you? The evolution looks seamless.

I thought the site here was non-political.

With limited time, I would likely look to steal maps from places online. Other stuff like towns and NPCs and such could also be found. Maybe plan on the initial 3 sets of options and then on another three for around 3rd level. If you think you can ties some threads between them, then that...

@TheNewPlayer welcome to the site.

They ended up defeating the dragon, but did not kill it. The dragon was possessed by a ghost dragon and when they exercised the ghost, the other dragon was allowed to return to its lair. So, the dragon could owe them a favor which the players are hesitant to go ask for. I was thinking that...

Playing the after Icespire Peak series that deal with the Town of Leilon. The PCs just saved the town from a dragon leading a horde of undead and a bunch of cultist of Talos that all attacked at the same time. The module just says that they are celebrated and have statues made to mark the...

Poor Reggie the thief who volunteered to enter the dark tunnel first in the Tomb of Horrors. I lost him early and then A cleric and a fighter if I recall. Today, I would likely have a check or roll damage once you put your pinky finger in the hole and not just say you enter and I'll tell you...

I think that it also has changed over the editions. 5e characters have soo many more options from 1e days where they now have feats and skills and other powers that tell the player and DM how good they are supposed to be at something. People should not wonder then why new players, or any...

I still have cable although the TV has some Samsung thing built in with some channels. Firestick turns on the others things like Disney and Netflix. Cable provides HBO and Showtime and Disney which is free with the phone plan provides Hulu. My daughter started working at Walmart so we now get...

Pompus Assintent was a PC of a friend back in 2e days. He was a minor lord from a far away place and been sent to this land by his father to more or less grow up. He quickly pissed away all his coin and retainers soon left so he needed to find work as a warrior, having been trained is all the...

I think the first game my son played with us in when he was 8 has magical food in it. He jumped up and said, "Don't eat it- its poisoned." Must be a hard-wired reaction into gamers.

I was thinking of a DC15 for the ability check and likely would have let him land ok if he rolled a 13 or 14, with maybe some penalty. He rolled around a 5 so it did not matter. Same for the DEX save where I was around a 12 and he rolled a 6 or 7. Again, same for the touching roll in the...
