This sounds like a wild magic sorcerer

Big green kirby?

What about an orc that hates magic so much that it just doesn’t effect him at all

Wonder whatd happen if you stuffed one into a bag of holding then... Hmmmm

I played a lizardfolk warlock once whose "fey pact" was actually a series of fey/nature spirits he had hunted down and eaten for their power.

I didnt know a class or profession could be gained through "you are what you eat"

Me am ate sparky fire man head, me get smorter and make sparky fire now.

Theu level up by eating every magical creature they find (along with the smaller magical items)

Wait... 40k but the sorcerers is a psycher and the ork becomes a weird boi

My current dnd character is a wild magic goblin who was dumpster diving in a high level wizards trash, found a broken artifact, and just shoved it in her mouth

😂😂😂 Great idea I will do this

Ranger who constantly talks like he's on camera, but that's just how he talks. Also he has an Australian accent because of course he does. "Crikey, that there's a Green Dragon. Now, these bugger's've got a mean breath, so I've got my new poison resistant armour on, and a cleric to heal me if things go down the gurgler, but I reckon' we'll be in like Flynn if all goes well"

I kind of love the idea of "eccentric survivalist ranger". The party is like "Oh hey, this inn is gonna let us stay for free and give us free rations and drinks!" and the ranger is just like "NO BUT I MADE A TENT OUT A SQUIRREL BONES, COOKED OWLBEAR MEAT, AND BOILED MY OWN URINE! WE DON'T NEED THE INN!"

Food for thought: if you're a paladin and your oath is simply to defend an incredibly rich person who had the oath written up by a very specific lawyer.

I dont think i ever subbed to a DnD channel after one short before

Could build it as Ranger, noble background for the retainers feature, the retainers are your crew who bring you food that you *definitely* hunted yourself

Kinda just sounds like a fighter with holy magic themed abilities now.

Falls in love with someone who is a huge fan of the second joker movie.

This is my Cleric. I picked up Survival from my Human trait to make searching for "snacks" easier. Even going so far as to picking up the Observant feat to do so as a Bonus Action.

the oath of “i promise to do x, but only if y” 😂

For my d&d fun with my friends my character is called Brizo, a Cloud Elemental who is a sorcerer. I don't have a physical form apart from a blue orb in the middle of my floating cloud/mist that acts as my eye, if it's destroyed my mist will fade and I won't exactly die, I can be revived by using spell or even just be giving the orb a bunch of magic to reshape the orb, then water to reform my mist.

Click the link to do both! I use map books every session. They look great, they’re quick to use, you can draw on them and rub away the marks, and you can get a variety of great looking maps that will last campaign after campaign.

Do you have a link to the Tomb of Maps book? Who made it?

Perks of having extra maps: you can spend extra time on your maps 🤤

Or you could do one where you protect the innocent but only betweenthe hours of 8:30 am- 9:45pm or something

To me as a player, being able to literally choose the order for every combat sounds suuuper boring. The randomness of a dice roll requires you to re-think every combat-start on the spot. That's what's making it fun for (!)me(!). Also, I strongly believe that players would at some point figure out their "optimal order" and if I push for a change and combat goes badly I would feel terrible and never try it again. It also doesn't allow for "combo turns" because to characters can never have the same initiative. So nah, I really don't like it. :D Also, what's the conceptual difference between having action points and having the action/bonus action/movement economy? Isn't it just the same thing with another name? ^^ Finally, the tactitian feat sounds like an absolute must-pick for at least two characters in the party, which is never a good thing.

Printer go Brrrrr.

The flow of time in the game should be inversely proportional to the danger the PCs are facing. Combat should take longer to play out than the amount of time the characters would be experiencing it in. Gotta slow it down to make sure everything is fair, but also it adds to the dramatic tension. When nothing is at risk (overland travel over safe roads, downtime spent crafting items), days or even weeks for the PCs can go by in the blink of an eye from the players' perspective. That said, there are a lot of games that slow down combat too much. Your idea seems pretty good. I prefer side-based initiative that is rolled round by round (BX/BECMI D&D style), but for a game where every player rolls individual initiative, setting the order this way is the way to go to speed things up.

I always like the idea of playing a wizards apprentice that is an Eldritch Knight fighter who serves the party’s cranky wizard.

Isn't the opposite of a druid an ambassador of entropy? They would work alongside concepts and turn them into diseases, poisons, and true ice that stops even light. If a druid is based on nature, its opposite should be based on the end of the universe.

Yes! Down with opportunity attacks

SIMULTANEOUS COMBAT o Has two phases. o Phase 1 is the declaration phase. Go around the table and have the players declare their actions. Once an action has been declared, it can't be changed. o Phase 2 is the resolution phase. All dice are rolled and all actions are resolved in one fluid narration. o For structure, actions are resolved in this order: Movement, Missiles, Magic, then Melee. o Roll for reactions and surprise before combat. Roll for morale when appropriate. o No initiative roll.

🥳🫂👍🏿 Love games that do away with opportunity attacks - Sounds like a take on popcorn initiative but making it mostly persistent - I haven’t liked popcorn initiative in the past, but using cards like in Dragonbane sounds like a great way to reduce confusion, and it opens up a new design space for mechanics like switching cards - very cool

I would love to play this system

This idea is sick Yoink

So transformers?

At first that really sounded like one of The Transformers series...

I had a great game DM'd by a friend and he had us all write down 3 words on 3 slips the draw them in turn order. I got "Agile", "Durable", and "lol dead" (everyone has their own interpretation of DnD when they first start). After we showed our picks, DM asked how the character manifested and we gave more/less help depending on game knowledge. My "lol dead" characteristic made it so all damaging spells by enemies would home in on me and healing would be directed towards allies. So I basically played healer Druid of the Moon Fire Elemental but reversed, self healing while bonded to an ally to heal them, circle of moon for the easier wild shape accessibility, and then natural armor (due to unarmed barb/monk stacking from a prior game that had to be nerfed this was allowed because adding 2 to an AC of a non elemental giant scorpion is nothing compared to a level 6/7 Monk/Barb getting unarmed and unarmored benefits making them gods the second they gave up all their possessions Fun game, fun campaign, try out weird ones like this where essentially it was a 3v2v(Had a Child so More important things), but without anyone knowing who is planning what

This...doesn't make much sense
