Is anyone ever going to do something about this "site can’t be reached" trove...?

Yeah, this should be interesting. Will they mention the uncomfortable racial implications and the blackface issue?

Works for me

Basically branding. The exposure of Dnd to normies means it's the easiest system to find normies to play with. Other than that, it's a below average battle simulator.

All of my friends only want to be a Wizard / Warlock, and I'm sure as hell not playing a healer or tank

How should I convince one of them to at least be a healer so I can stick to DPS?

Meh, I think it'll only be an issue if they make a way for Drow PCs to easily skirt around Sunlight Sensitivity.

>racial implications and the blackface
Are you retarded? They're Greenwood's femdom black leather bondage fetish race, not anything to do with african "blacks" who are actually brown rather than black black like drow.

To be honest since the shadar-kai are coming out I will just advise them to make one of these if they want an edge-elf with super dark vision and no penalty

blackface issue? Do people want to make drow faces more african since their skin is too dark for caucasoid features?

Oh shit yeah my niggas now we talking. Eberron elves as a whole are awesome. The good lich(?) ancestor worship elves and the souls fused with shadow to fight greater darkness drow (Umbragen) are definitely my favorite.

Why does all of Shad's art look like they have chromatic abberation?

Now THAT'S a 9th level spell.

You can Kamehameha some motherfuckers real good with that.

Actually, shouldn't Drow have 0 pigmentation since they live underground? Shouldn't they be deathly white?

Is this a joke?

Eh, sunlight sensitivity isn't really that great a design thing anyway. It's either 'You suck forever' or 'It will never come up' depending on the type of game.

they are not the product of natural evolution so no

Son, I removed that from my games since 3.5. Drow, Duergar and Svirfneblin are land dwellers and not underground snowflakes. Also, there's no underdark.
And you can't stop me! NOBODY CAN!

Yeah, they're not being allowed in my game...

I'm not mad that they can change their sex. Changelings can basically already do that. I'm mad that WotC have decided that Elves have to do fucking everything, including being special snowflake sexual dimorphifluid.

Is this actually better than the Sea Sorcerer in any way? Or is it shaping up to be, rather.

I mean, considering Corellon is a god who does that all the time it's not really surprising. Any more than say, Sune Worshippers all looking good or a Cleric of Odin putting out one eye searching for knowledge.

Good on you, buddy. Snivblarfflargen are pretty cool.

>being suc ha thin-skinned reactionary
I will play one in the first game I get into after the book is out because I think it sounds neet as fuck and will allow me to explore personal experiences foreign to me IRL.

It sorta makes sense. Corellon is the god of elves and the main god known for that so the overlap doesn't really surprise me.

The bits it takes from Warhammer are the gross-out and so-horrific-it-cycles-back-around-to-comical elements.

He said sex, not gender. So you don't become a trap, you physically turn into a female or a male based on your decision.

You don't actually need a healer, you know. Just bring some potions or take short rests.

Bards can put any two spells together, so you have the most options available to you for memes.

Fuck off tranny janny. Just do your job and stop shitting up this place.

Also, Crawford has made trap posting relevant to 5e with his latest video.

yeah who would've known Veeky Forums jumped on mentally disabled, autist totally hasnt been a buzzword for half a decade or more

>““We also talk a bit about the fact that, on some worlds, the name of Lolth is not even known, just as the name Corellon isn’t known, yet there are sort of like echoes in the blood, where even if - like in our world - you don’t know the name of your parents, you still bear your ancestry within your blood. And so even those dark elves who don’t know the name of Lolth, they still have been shaped by her influence, just as all elves, even drow, are descendant from Corellon.””

Shoot me.

I wouldn't go so far as to call them "people"

Lets be honest, now. If anons here could choose between being stuck in a male body forever or be able to switch things up every now and then without anyone even knowing, they'd go for the flexible option. They can pretend they are disgusted by the idea all they want, but checking out what its physically like to be the opposite sex is a really tempting proposition.

Damage, lots of damage. Or use a wizard.

Damage mitigation is better than healing, and most classes can fill in for two roles in the party anyway, especially if they choose an appropriate subclass.

Can dragons crossbreed with others of their race? Ie can a red knock up a gold? And what colour is the end result?

Hey man, they put that sit in their own game, it's not that user's fault he is using the rules and you're not.

>referral to school psychologist

We're not at that point yet as a society, and we probably never will be, as a whole. Hooray for D&D occasionally granting bouts of escapism.

If anything, I'm tempted to make an elf wizard who frequently shoves himself into the 'neither' category for days where he wants to be left alone and just get some research done.

VERY important question:
If I impregnate an elf while they are female, but they choose to be male one day mid-pregnancy, what happens to the baby? Will it die? Will it get paused and continue baking when they turn into a girl again? CRAWFOOOOORD! WE NEED ANSWERS!

Why do you think Elven couples have such low birth rates? They fuck like rabbits, but they keep on transaborting them when they switch genders.

It's not a rule worth keeping, like anything else 4e dragged foward.

I'm playing an androgynous elf wizard right now actually

If I understand correctly, traps aren't even transwomen, just crossdressers. That's why it's gay to like them.

Its an advantage to be able to do that with virtually no drawback. Boys only space? Be boy. Girls only space with free drinks? Be girl. Want to not be bothered by neckbeards while playing vidya on voicecoms? Be boy. Want free shit in MMOs? Be girl.

People are retarded.

How can I make use of all of that mobility?

Attached: ImABardNow.png (600x1000, 1.11M)

Dude, if you're that assblasted you could just go play pathfinder.

So I've been looking at this seriously and I must wonder how balanced would it be
Pretty much is feels like it would make the player never use the lower level spells, like, once he got access to third level fireball why would he ever again cast burning hands?
In other words, I fear this might turn into a "just more free casts of higher level spells"

anyone else see what I mean?

Gain some mobility within your gender spectrum.

Now they do!

As will the Raven Queen. She's going to now be the ruler of the Mournland, where her Shadowfell has become one with the Prime Material Plane.

Why would I want to play with those fucking weebs? I just want D&D to be D&D again rather than WOTC constantly fucking up everything about a game I love.
