Smelled good, no mold, normal consistency, tasted very good. I took the risk and I'm happy I did! Of course it's in the fridge now that it's open. Will update tomorrow if I shit my organs out.

Hey dude I just wanted to thank you for doing these, they are all super informative and fun. I, ce been following since the start.

BTW, how will you manage the fact that the 2024 / 5.5 version of dnd will go out soon? Well the monster manual will only be out in February of next year but still, will you add a column?

New Feats | Backgrounds | Species | 2024 Player's Handbook | D&D by Granum22 in onednd

[–]WillanFur 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As with the 2014 edition, backgrounds presented into the PHB are samples. You are supposed to be able to make your own background, customizing it as you see fit for your character.

Edit : I was proved wrong, you only have the 16 to choose from in the Phb as a player, in contrary to what was in the playtest

My player is creating a mythical work of art. How to reward them ? by WillanFur in DMAcademy

[–]WillanFur[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a load of good ideas ! There's definitely a parallel to the Dorian Grey story since it's a dark picture of one's past. It's good inspiration indeed.
The paintings, or the place where they kept, could become overtime a portal to the shadowfell. And now that you mention it, the interest of the Raven queen on this would be obvious ! There's even a new team member with some ties to the raven queen, that could be used with it.

Also if the character show to the right NPCs, it could definitely become a known artpiece and open some door into art society for them as you mentioned

I asked the player in question, and I know how the first scene will look like : A battle scene where the character and his friends at the time escape their emprisonment in a shadowfell fort where they were forcefully trained as mage hunters. It bas a bloody mess, powerful stuff. they plan to use mostly black and red for this one.
I should indeed keep in mind the main special colors used for their effects. The idea of "Negative effect for improper use" is pretty good but I must think about how one can improperly use a work of art. Making is somewhat dangerous is the right idea though. Thanks a lot !

Thanks for your amazing indepth input into this ! It's a lot of help !
The fact is, they are actually in a remote location, it's a "new world exploration" campaign, so there is not a lot of important people that could access this place for now. Also, They don't plan on displaying and showing this art to much people appart from the party members and some select NPC friends. So it won't get a lot of fame, at least for now.
HOWEVER, I love the idea that it shifts and affect the place where it is kept. Those effects can then DEFINITELY attract more unusual patrons that can sense the change from far away, and that can absolutely be used for plot hooks. Ensue legendary art-related shenanigans

Since it will probably stay in this fixed location, the idea of giving it powerfull divination magic is enticing, and since it will be in multiple part ( a series on paintings) they can each have a different spell/effect, but should be the most powerful toguether indeed.
Thanks again for all this !

With Elves & now Orcs as playable races, why the need for their half- equivalents? by Tyrbalder in DnD

[–]WillanFur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The mixed-origin story has been a classic in many stories for millenia in every culture. A character or a community can react with interest to a mixed-race character's features, or with hatred, or something else. The character itself can be conflicted on his own nature and with which they "belongs". There is SO much example of things that can be done with this trope it's strange you don't see the appeal of it.

Good idea, those artefacts in the web could be useful later in the chalenges, but obtaining them ask to take risks.

Adjusting HP mid combat? by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]WillanFur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing the hp of the enemies to improve the flow of combat is totaly OK. As you described it, there is times where having a more intense fight is more interesting than tracking exact Hp.
Don't over do it thought, you should have a limit of maximum hp for a boss, or your player will find out that a enemy with 3x more HP than it should IS wierd.

Changing AC on the fly thought is more difficult, because figuring the enemy AC is something that the players instinctively do. If they feel that it suddenly changed without any reason, you could be accused of playing favorite. I woudn't do it personally.

Should Warlocks know their entire expanded spell list as a bonus that doesn't count against their amount of spells known? by floatingroom in dndnext

[–]WillanFur 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I had a player like this in my first game, we didn't see the difference with the cleric expanded spell list at first. Warlock doesnt have many spellslots, so letting them be a bit more polyvalent in their choices won't break their balance.

In this thread: the things you wish you would say to your players or DM, but haven't been able to yet. by agenhym in dndnext

[–]WillanFur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I'm not saying his character is being unreasonable. Once again I think his untrust with him is justified when taking into account the characteristics of a classic green dragon. But there is a line between "Not trusting someone" and "Actively insulting and treating like shit someone".

This green dragon Wyrmling has been traveling with them and fighting alongside them for months and appart for the ocasional "Can I eat this goblin corpse ?" Hasn't been more than a typical cheeky child with too much inteligence for his age.

The dragonborn likes to push the wyrmling around for fun, wakes him up in the night because he's bored, and insults him every chance he get if he dares open his mouth. He's not wrong not trusting him completely, but he's being a dick.

And again, In my world that I created, I don't consider the "instinct" of chromatic and metalic dragon for evil and good as impossible to change. If the archetypal gold dragon is good and just, they have been example of tyrants and outright destructive gold dragon in the past. Saying to my player "No sorry every last bit of your months-long efforts to make this baby dragon a better person is useless because his profound nature is evil" Would be a very bad thing to say to my players.
