Have you done this before? I have, using butcher paper, and it worked out fine. — KorvinStarmast 2 hours ago
@KorvinStarmast I use those packages of paper for wrapping plates/stuffing boxes that you can get from a moving store. Basically newsprint, but maybe a touch higher quality?
Can get, like a hundred sheets for $5, and I just throw the pack of sharpies out on the table.

@MikeQ I mean, this is solid advice to solve most social problems at the table.
Often I'll just get creative/lazy and let everyone draw a feature or two to make the map interesting.
@MikeQ (New contender for site motto.)
@nitsua60 Are we allowed to have a site motto that BESW didn't say first?
You and your so-called "evidence", getting in the way of a perfectly good joke.
so... the 12th site motto?

Actually, before that, you may want to converse with your player, and figure out what their goals are. Identify what parts of gameplay you enjoy. Then try to devise a solution from there.

Q: If an Oblex devours a wizard's memories, can it cast the spells the wizard had prepared?

OharImagine that an Elder Oblex (from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. p. 219) ate a memory of a wizard. Could it cast spells which were prepared by this wizard?

@nitsua60 that's a good choice. There was also a time that I used easel paper: it used to be that when giving presentations, before power point was a thing, that you'd use these tall pads of paper and write on them, and stand next to the easel as you gave the talk. I can't remember the formal name.

Q: Does a reincarnated Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer save his class abilities?

OharIt looks like that Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer got all his class abilities just from his dragon ancestor. But does such ancestor provide sorcerer only with a Draconic Bloodline body, like ancestors usually does? Or maybe sorcerer's soul and spirit are Draconic Bloodline, but his body isn't? ...
