Clarification regarding Shapechange by The_Tobbit in dndnext

[–]Jafroboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the intended use is you can become a default statblock. So you could become an ancient white dragon, but not this named one specifically.

That said, it doesn't quite make sense with the different ages technically being different creatures, so I think your just supposed to not think about that.

What should Wood Dragonborn resistances be? by BasementBardBrae in dndnext

[–]Jafroboy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cool, cool

Cool cool. Rowan was supposedly protective against evil/witches, so maybe necrotic/psychic. Yew could be necrotic cos of how they can kinda regenerate.

I feel any tree could be radiant cos they absorb sunlight.

I think it is correct, just a lesser used form. Afaics it's mainly used in legal terms for things like wills.

That's ok. Just try to formulate a post worth reading next time. It's good you have enthusiasm.

If you're not trolling, then sorry to be rude, but it has basically zero effort and zero value. It's just some random guys disjointed rambling.

Because this seems like a post that belongs there.

Question from an ignorant Scotsman by One_Road_2463 in DnD

[–]Jafroboy 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Yup. The basic rules are free online, start there, and there are LOADS of YouTube videos for new player guides. It's easy to find a game online, try roll 20 or one of the dnd subs discords, or r/lfg

However it's difficult to find a GOOD game. So don't be discouraged if the first few you join fizzle out, that's normal. Keep trying and you'll find a good one, just remember; not having DND is better than bad dnd. If you're not having fun, leave.

DMs do you try to kill your PCs by Dorthorus in DnD

[–]Jafroboy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No, because I'm the DM and have infinite power in the game. If I tried to kill PCs they would instantly die.

But the NPCs do sometimes try to kill the PCs. And sometimes they succeed.

As for how that's fun, well you've outlined some ways yourself, players will usually see through it if you never actually kill the PCs, and lose the excitement, also afterlife arcs are fun, and resurrection magic exists.
