To give a little background on this race, I wanted to create something akin to the Lizardmen from Warhammer Age of Sigmar. They're different from the Lizardfolk race in Volo's Guide to Monsters in that they're not swamp-dwelling savages, but rather they have a highly ordered and developed (althou...
I’m stepping down from moderation soon and putting away my shiny diamond. Just like nitsua60 I’ll be sticking around for a bit longer post-election, so this is not immediate. (Don’t worry, this isn’t some surge of mod resignations. We both planned this in advance, only I had some delays in gettin...
Trolls have an insane regenerative ability, being able to regain lost hitpoints in a flash and even regrow lost bodyparts.

Multiattack. The lizardfolk ma...
I'm thinking about making a Necromancy wizard, but had a few questions about RAW.
Would undead from the animate undead spell (or any necromancer spells), e.g. skeletons or zombies, be able to climb a rope, climb a ladder, or swim?
I feel like they would be able to climb a ladder, the rope is a...
The Spell Continual Flame (p227 of the Player's Handbook) is a touch spell. It does not offer any parameters as to what qualifies as a target other than it has to be an object. In theory you could touch an opponent's helmet and a flame would spring forth, potentially blinding them (with no save...
