I've never used psionics and I've played all editions but I don't count monsters like illithid that have psionic abilities. I've never had a pscionicist NPC. I guess I just never really saw the point, to me psionics is just space magic or magic by another name. I don't mean that as being...

Or ... people just like what they like and express their opinion. I'm not a big fan of vampires (or werewolves) as a power-up and an all wizard school is a bit limiting to me. But if it works for you, great! Hmm ... then again assuming some other posters weren't just trolling ... the whole...

Add in local doesn't mean local to where your PC is based it means that the person you're meeting with must be local to wherever you are so you can meet with them. People can run their games any way they want, and you don't even need the text to agree with you. But if you are motivated enough...

In my campaign it would also take a bit of legwork, some discussion and have a chance of failure even if you're willing to help out. So it's not guaranteed and it doesn't require a background feature. A sailor may have a better idea of what to look for, how to ask around on what captains are...

It explicitly states that you're calling in a favor. If you're paying your way some other way that's been negotiated, you don't need the background feature.

That's clearly not what it means. It further clarifies that you are calling in a favor. How do you do that with someone you've never met?

Feel free to ignore the clear text. "You might A or B" is about as clear as it gets. Still waiting to see how you explain that you are calling in a favor from someone you've never met. Oh wait ... I'm not because you won't.

The AD&D 1E DMG. There are some other fun ones in there. I always appreciated that they were willing to have a bit of fun with the drawings. :)

It's an either-or statement. One of the two options, a ship you served on or another ship you have good relations with. You can't call in a favor from someone you've never met. Feature: Ship’s Passage When you need to, you can secure free passage on a sailing ship for yourself and your...

I would just add that even as a player this would make the world less believable and therefore less fun for me. There's nothing wrong with what they're doing if it works for them and their group. Just don't expect it to work for everyone. I had a really good DM at a con recently but the way...

Not to mention - how does that dragon actually eat with those horns in the way? :unsure:

I do like the cover, but kind of like the back cover more. The cartoon characters art is a lot of fun with everything from pixies to mimics and perhaps the goblins are a nod to 5E art?
