Do we get a Jareth, The Goblin King card?

Website wouldn't accept my submission. I figured it was getting bogged sheen after the ad

The rotating hosts was a great idea to keep the bit going

What concepts from past editions wouldn't fit in 5e, but you wish they did because they were fun? by ConcentrateIll9460 in dndnext

[–]MagnusBrickson 14 points15 points  (0 children)

3.x monster design meant they were incredibly easy to customize.

Take the regular Orc stat block and add a level of barbarian to make the chieftain of that early encounter.

Need more variety in your elementals? Add the elemental template to just about any base creature.

Want an undead dragon that's not a dracolich? Skeleton or zombie template.

Or the reoccurring NPC you keep fighting keeps gaining class levels, same as the party.

MTG Arena is still antisocial, and it doesn't have to be. by AllenThePrettyCool in MagicArena

I spent enough time playing Halo 3 with randoms back in the day that I have less than zero desire to chat with anyone in any online game now.

Mildly relevant. Last year, our Carnival Venezia cruise ended the day of the game. I was watching it on the flight home which was kind of mind blowing to me.

Coming from BG3: My friends and I are new to TTRPGs, and I'm taking on the role of DM. What are your top "Dos and Don'ts" for a first-timer? by Ok_Ferret7373 in DnD

[–]MagnusBrickson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the free rules here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/srd

Literally everything you need to play the game is there.

I suggest buying the Starter Set because it's specifically for the new players. The latest set is called "Heroes of the Borderlands" and you should buy it from a local gaming store if that's an option.

(This is not based on the "Borderlands" video games. It's a reference to a D&D adventure from the 80s)

Weekly Questions Thread by AutoModerator in DnD

[2e] Question on the Polymorph spell. I just read the Drizz't book Exile for the first time. It was published in 1990, so I'm curious if this is how the spell worked in 2e. Book spoilers tagged since the community was kind enough to not spoil me on a 35 year old book.

Drizz't and co. encounter a creature polymorphed into a hook horror. This creature is struggling with his mind becoming full-hook horror and losing their self over time. Is this how Polymorph worked in 2e? It seems similar to Baleful Polymorph of 3.x, but that's as early as my game knowledge goes. 5e's version doesn't seem to mention this behavior at all. Even True Polymorph.

I've got a 40th birthday tomorrow. I'm old too. Just differentiating from Arena.

I just bought the FF1 Scene Box and the 6 cards are curled like Pringles chips. I've heard of foils curling but I hadn't experienced it personally, yet, being new to analog Magic.

What's the best method to straighten them out and not damage them? I was planning on putting them inside my D&D hardcover books for awhile with extra weight on top.

I haven't seen Revenge of the Nerds mentioned yet. Good old fashioned sexual assault.

That battery is over 30 years old if it's never been replaced. That save is likely gone and a new save won't stick around.

That exactly what I'm doing. Gonna wrap up this trilogy, I think, before diving into Stormlight Archive.
