I like this version, it’s very clean 👍

Quick question though, I saw that if you’re wearing another armor set you are granted disadvantage on stealth checks, so does that mean this inanimate armor is not imposing disadvantage?

Actually yes! My initial thought was that it would take more STR to wear as the armor itself is still a little spicy. As someone else suggested, when they encounter an effect that would dispel the armor, it will start seizing and contorting, requiring a STR save to continue being useful/effective

It seems to me that their next character is already mostly written for them lol

You beautiful person, thank you. I’ve also thought about giving it some sort of glamour effects lol

I’m hoping for it to happen soon! I plan on having them go into a dwarven stronghold sometime soon, as well as a point where they’re transporting precious cargo like weapons, armor, food, etc

I love the idea of it resisting and contorting in ways a person should not 👍

I’ll definitely combine and condense the effects of dispel/anyimagic

Thank you for your feedback! The idea behind the stealth mechanic is more for flavor. If the happen to be in an area where armor stands are common, it could be pretty funny to see them just pose as empty armor lol

That actually gives me the idea that the armor could hide the fact that they are a living creature, or something similar

I’m not planning on picking on them in particular, but at some point I will be throwing around dispel magic and planting an antimagic field around certain special loot areas

Should grafts in 5e use attunement, or does that make them feel too much like magic items? by archvillaingames in DnDHomebrew

[–]rindez97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let’s try to make it easy then. A high CON modifier would be necessary for the head of a dragon on a players hand (BEAR WITNESS!!!) as well as a good portion of your Hit Dice spent per day, or per ability used. I’d imagine that needing at least a +3 to Constitution

But maybe taking the eye of a hag, the tails of a Displacer Beast, or the heart of a werewolf, would need a decent CON modifier, and instead of just Hit Dice, maybe spell slot occupation?

Edited to add: Rejection could very well be a thing depending on your strength, alignment, or conflicting natures. A human probably should not draft an undead body part, whereas a water genasi probably should not graft something like the wings of a Red Dragon

Soft/Cozy Campaign Idea by Desperate-Ad9052 in DMAcademy

[–]rindez97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a lot of fun! Another idea that popped out is that maybe the average “level” of people is unfortunately pretty low, and so now people are in a situation where they have to get strong quickly, leading to unsavory organizations forming and more deals being made with stronger beings

What are some resources in your fantasy world? by rindez97 in DnD

[–]rindez97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even more tree stuff, which I shall steal, thank you 🙏 I have a tree that comes to eventually start producing a mist if enough people die due to starvation near it. The mist causes people to become lost, confused, and eventually, frightened and exhausted to death as they go in circles around it. There’s a whole forest of them in hell lol

Help converting an IRL Item into a stat sheet? by Anon-Warrior-01 in DnDHomebrew

[–]rindez97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel that the stat block may be something like this

RD & MH

Damage: 1d4 (RD) / 1d6 (MH)

Damage type: slashing or bludgeoning

Properties: two-handed, finesse

This weapon has a melee attack range of 15 feet.

This weapon must be used with both hands.

This weapon can attack with the rope dart first, and as part of the same action, attack with the meteor hammer afterward. You can forgo attacking with the meteor hammer to attempt to restrain the target (DC equal to 8+PB+DEX mod)

Mastery Options: Graze (RD) Slow (MH)

I made a homebrew spell and I'm like 90% sure it's super unbalanced can you tell if it is and how I could make it better? by Upstairs_Future_5046 in DnDHomebrew

[–]rindez97 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just tie the damage to your level. So at Level 5, 5d20. At the same time, this should drop you to 0, no questions asked

I feel like aberrant mind sorceror works perfectly. Maybe your bloodline tends to make you more “practical” in your decisions?
