When did we pass the 3 year mark and why does it not feel like it has been that long?


I think that's a glitch, because the first post was Jan 2022, so yeah... not three years yet.

... but soon.

This statement has reminded me of a highly concerning fact regarding the Feywild and the passage of time.

Sorry for the silence on my part, everyone. Things really picked up IRL for the holidays. It'll no doubt become busy for me again, but at least this weekend, I can post. I apologize for the wait.

Now, to get to responses and IC posts...!

YOU GUYS! HOLY SHIT! THAT OLD D&D CARTOON IS CANON TO 5E NOW! VENGER'S ON THE COVER OF THE NEW DMG!


Woah, Really?! Cool! I still have my hackles up when it comes to the 2024 D&D rules though. I've heard about what they did to the subclasses, and what they did to the warlock is especially heinous. Not knowing what type of patron you made a deal with is and your abilities as a result are until 3rd Level?! What?!



I wonder who among this party is going to pull that sort of stunt... XD



Awww! Cute!

Yeeeeaah...

Same with Sorcerer, though in that case it could potentially work. Like imagine you have incredible magical talent and you just assume it's because you come from a line of sorcerers. Then level 3 comes about and you suddenly start growing scales, fangs and claws and then your character's parents have to sit them down and tell them that their grandad was a dragon.

Potentially dramatic and/or hilarious.

Started to think too hard about this and how would work for other Sorcerer origins!

Divine Soul sorcerer: You gained magic fairy-tale style after doing a favor for a little old lady one day. You didn't think anything of it until Level 3, when you realise that little old lady was in fact the goddess of magic in disguise.

Wild Magic sorcerer: You were a magical protege all your life, and you prided yourself on it (and might even have been an arrogant little shit). Then when level 3 comes around, there is some horrible event that causes your magic to never work as quite the same. It would be cooler if said event was caused my aforementioned arrogance, like a jealous rival mage or a magical being deciding you have too much hubris.

Shadow Magic sorcerer: You have a near-death experience that causes your magic to start to tap into the dark powers of the Shadowfell.

I'll think about the others later, but what I'm saying is, Sorcerer might have a work around.

@XxFellsingxX Cleric is interesting to think about in this context as well.

The new subclass third rule would make sense if the deity a cleric worships has multiple domains. But if it has only one? Then it's like the Warlock Patron issue again.

Though...I can see that being resolved if the Cleric is able to switch the deity they worshipped before Level 3. For example, The Cleric realized that the initial deity they were worshipping was not something they believed to be and went against their beliefs. So they realized the 'Church' they were a part of was actually a cult. At this revelation they decided to worship a different deity that was vilified or dismissed in the cult, and gains the full domain powers as a result of seeing the truth.

I think that can be worked around as well. In mythology, deities gain new domains all the time. For example, Apollo being a sun god and Artemis being a moon goddess are actually fairly recent additions. Leaves it open for the cleric to perhaps learn more and interpret their deity in different ways. After all, as shown in the Planescape setting, belief can be surprisingly powerful.

(tbf I do agree with the warlock thing. It is the most difficult to work around, though not impossible. For example, a fiend taking on a more heavenly disguise when offering their pact for the first time... still frustrating though, and I do wish they hadn't ruled it like that xP)

Also finding out your warlock patron is a Great Old One could work well. They might have first appeared in a different form to their warlock, not entirely out of deceit, but simply because the warlock's mortal mind could not comprehend their true form.

However, no matter what you may think about the class structure, can we all agree...

That the new goliaths are pretty darn cool.
