    D&D General Baldurs Gate, Darksun, Fallout Mashup.

    Seven evil rulers of the largest settlements in the area are under threat from The Absolute('s replacement) and don't know exactly what it is. Even though they're evil, conniving, backstabbers they're patrons for heroes who are out to fight against the big ugly horror show that's coming. Willing...

    Level Up (A5E) Are Spell points and Sorcery points interchangeable?

    Hellboy. The goal was to do a Hellboy style concept. A warlock who uses some magical spells largely out of combat and favors a revolver in combat, eventually gaining the ability to avoid a creature's resistances through the use of elemental ammunition in the same way Hellboy might load his...

    Level Up (A5E) Are Spell points and Sorcery points interchangeable?

    Well... I created the Arcane Knight and Eldritch Blackguard combat traditions, there's the Zevites, the "Living at the Edge of Night" article with backgrounds and destiny, the Zephyr's Complement which you noted, the follow up of The Zephyr's Legacy: An Airship and her Crew, Streamlining your...

    Level Up (A5E) Are Spell points and Sorcery points interchangeable?

    Nope! Warlocks don't have spell slots that can be converted into Sorcery Points in A5e. It's a really simple fix for the brutally OP Sorlock from 5e while also giving Warlocks a little room to cast more spells.

    Level Up (A5E) Cantrips, pros and cons

    I find it really interesting! And it really presses hard on one of the changes I'd like to make to Bards... At 5th level, Bards should be able to cast Vicious Mockery as a bonus action.

    D&D General So, how much did/do you use psionics?

    I really do love when I wake up in the morning and check EN World and there's another ping about Paranormal Power. I'm so happy I wrote that book. <3

    Level Up (A5E) New Conditions: Agonized, Forgetful, Manic, Placid, Vexed

    I have two questions: 1) What is the purpose of creating additional conditions? 2) How common will these conditions be? The first question's answer is likely "In order to streamline communication at the table". After all, describing a character as "Vexed" is a lot easier than listing off each...

    D&D General Gish Thoughts

    What I was going for with this thread was the idea that Gish, conceptually, could be more than Fighter + Mage. Whether that's the core of a whole gishy class, the use of prestige classes or subclass, the insertion of gish feats, or using a bladelock to be a Fightymage. It was an attempt to...

    Voidrunner Here It Comes... The Voidrunner's Codex: A5E in SPACE!

    Being one of the rare and wondrous people who remembers the glory of Farscape is no glendian pleasure vessel... but at least I have fond memories and the entire series in every format I can find.

    Voidrunner Here It Comes... The Voidrunner's Codex: A5E in SPACE!

    To be clear: I'm not saying that's the values in the book or anything. I don't know those values. I was just trying to express a decent speed for starships to travel to have a strong "Interstellar" feel. After all it's unlikely -every- star has a space-faring species around it. So while we'd be...

    Voidrunner Here It Comes... The Voidrunner's Codex: A5E in SPACE!

    8 Ly/hour, 31 minutes to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star to our solar system. Seems a decent enough speed for closely clustered star systems nearer to the galactic core, but leaves longer range travel taking days or weeks on the outer rim?

    Voidrunner Here It Comes... The Voidrunner's Codex: A5E in SPACE!

    To expand on it a bit: The VRC adds in all the Sci-Fi stuff. Starships, Cybernetics, Psionics, Laser Swords, Etc. It has some new heritages that are various alien standards and new takes as well. You can run a purely sci-fi game right out of the book. But. Just like the A5e core books there...

    D&D General Want to use traps? Make them obvious

    I'll see this and raise it another level: Make Passive Perception DCs low enough for your players to find the hidden traps. Whether you use the Delving system from the GPG or not, you're probably going to have someone with a decent passive perception in the group. Probably the trapfinder. Let...
