    What do we think the odds are that they got to keep the story/world bible and are repurposing it for their upcoming project?

    What Property That Has Never Had A TTRPG Adaptation Deserves one?

    OSR Dolmenwood Books

    Plenty of worms in the poor food. Blech. I've come to really like kindred-as-class. I feel it helps to avoid the humans-in-funny-hats dilemma. I disagree about thief as a name. I think the thief class does things that no expert treasure hunter class should be designed to do like backstab and...

    Knave 2e quasi-classes

    Some months ago, I got some positive feedback here on some rules I made for reliquaries. That inspired me to flesh that out into a somewhat more complete "class" system for Knave 2e. I added some character options while trying to stick to the spirit of the game. Players can choose from a...

    Knave 2 from Ben of Questing Beast. Update: Backerkit store is open.

    I think this is a pretty good solution to adding a druid-like element into the game. I made a similar one for clerics just before the official divine magic section (in the Kickstarter preview) was released. Reliquary A reliquary is an intricately carved box with several doors designed to hold...

    Knave 2 from Ben of Questing Beast. Update: Backerkit store is open.

    I've been feeling a very high level of "shut up and take my money!" ever since this was announced. I was mentally preparing to run a campaign in Knave before the announcement, but now I'm all in for running it in Knave 2e.

    DDAL New changes coming Sept 22

    Unless I missed it, there's no mention of seasonality. Was this already known for season 11? It's news to me.

    D&D 5E Revisiting RAW Darkness Spell

    I'm in the opaque black globe camp because I think it far more closely matches the spell text, but I definitely get the criticisms. The opaque globe interpretation practically makes it a portable fog cloud spell. There's also some verisimilitude breaking when total blackness has no effect on...

    D&D 5E Revisiting RAW Darkness Spell

    After reading this whole thread, this is exactly the question I want to know the answer to. (Also midair can totally be "a point you choose within range" for casting darkness)

    D&D 5E 20th level Sorcerer vs the world

    There's the same problem with the 4th-level spells. Polymorph is transmutation, but you need at least one more to be a transmutation or abjuration. Edit: Galandris beat me to it

    D&D 5E 20th level Sorcerer vs the world

    Why? True polymorph doesn't change the mind, just the body. The true polymorphed wizard wouldn't kill their simulacrum and the new beholders share the original's personality and goals

    D&D 5E 20th level Sorcerer vs the world

    I think you're misunderstanding. The simulacrum casts dream on the true polymorphed wizard. I also realized that dispelling true polymorph isn't necessary. The beholders can just bite you until you drop the form. Save those valuable spell slots. If you can glyph of warding a dream on yourself...

    In In what way is that simulacra-cheese? It only ever had one simulacrum at a time. And though the loop could be done an "infinite" amount of times, I didn't. It uses only as much time as you have the sorcerer.

    I can't believe that this is the thread that got me to register for the site... With 3 years of preparation, cast simulacrum as needed. True polymorph yourself into a beholder. Concentrate the whole hour. Fall asleep. Simulacrum casts dream on you and controls the dream environment to include...
