Dungeons and Dragons

In an effort to not fracture the community, please go to the dndnext community on ttrpg.network. If for some reason in the future it becomes unstable (bad moderators, hostile admins, etc.), then I'll reopen this one. For now, I will trust blindly that they have the community's interests in heart.

Playtest release tomorrow (June 29)

This was a table I put together for a campaign I was playing a druid in. The DM and I wanted to remove the ambiguity around the spell -- whether the animal is chosen by DM or Player. So we made a table for the lowest level casting, assuming temperate forest or similar terrain. Thoughts on this solution?

Anyone want to buy your DM a present? ;)

Assume that you still only have a limited number of cantrips known, and it would be displacing another cantrip on your list.

tl;dr: relate to NPC; item hooks; lore hooks; evolve the characters; and campaigns designed around characters.

tl;dr: tell the players on advance how many encounters to expect, so they can budget their resources.

From Lorne Balfe

"Wait, is that the ORIGINAL voynich manuscript? Where did you GET that? Wanna try playing a round of Druids and Dicotyledons?"

I'm looking forward to volume seven -- The Dark Tower. So far The Lost City has been my favourite, in terms of 5e conversions. But it's really nice to have a proper Elemental Evil conversion that is sanctioned. If anyone wants pictures of some contents, let me know.
