A flying creature that doesn't hover and can't move must fall:
If a flying creature is knocked prone, has its speed reduced to 0, or is otherwise deprived of the ability to move, the creature falls, unless it has the ability to hover or it is being held aloft by magic, such as by the fly spell.

@Trish well they said they didn't want to talk about it and it made the enitre sever uncomfatibale and i was banned yesterday night which was a day or 2 after mind you and 4 hours after i asked the owner why they said because of the question
@AncientSwordRage It is. It's a soldier's will. I have seen pretty much that plus a list of items that are the things that the wife was to get as a letter home from a soldier... that promptly was shot dead about 2 weeks later in Verdun.
@ThomasMarkov Mind, that was a 1916ish French soldier of about... 25 if I remember correctly, but yea, you need to be of age to write one, and it needs to tell people that it is a last will and testament.
@Catofdoom2 Always a new weird corner of the internet to discover. Have you looked into knitting. There's an awful lot of knitting groups all over the place, and some are pretty rad. Also, very soothing activity.
@GcL i've done a couple things in my life already. i played pinao a little. made a video game, had a girlfriend once. honestly i'm pretty far on the list of the things I want to do before dying
@Trish i'm almost 15 is that young for how sick i am?
i feel like the worst part is that it isn't my fault. if my sickness my fault i couold live with it or i guess die with it lol. but it was just bad luck. that makes me sad
@AncientSwordRage actually, it really is just about combining at least two skills for any particular test. If they need to rank the dye for skill, than having to choose multiple skills will force them to choose suboptimal dice.
Still thinking about that one. But I'm also thinking about the method of driving what you are doing to the game master, and the game master selecting your skills for you to roll on based off of that.
Otherwise, why would a player being sent advised to choose subwoto. There needs to be some sort of benefit if they are going to. But then they're always going to pick that optimal benefit.
@AncientSwordRage But I think you're on to something with making more than potential optimal outcome. Otherwise, players will naturally do what they can to optimize.
@AncientSwordRage "roleplay-wise my character's warlock abilities are being treated as something the other characters don't want to get too involved in."
lol
Says my wizard: "I have adventured with several warlocks; boon companions, good in a fight, many other sterling qualities. Always makes me more than a little nervous where their powers come from, I mean, you can't even really tell."
@NautArch If we weren’t stuck in the middle of a high stakes dungeon with timed events forthcoming we’d see Makaidos use a lot more divination rituals.
There are several questions about duergar in multiple editions of D&D (albeit not nearly as many as for drow). Part of what prompted me to create a separate tag for them is that they're apparently not considered dwarves in D&D 4e(?), which means the dwarf tag won't always cover such questions.
When I notice a new tag (or in this case, create it myself) and it makes sense for the tag to exist (which I think it does, per above), I generally try to add it to all the questions for which such a tag is appropriate – at least as long as doing so is not too disruptive (and I don't think it was too disruptive here, given that it affected less than a dozen questions).
If anyone strongly feels that it shouldn't be a separate tag, feel free to bring it up on Meta. :)
@V2Blast It’s actually a pretty good candidate for a tag, I think. I personally would have gone with five today and six tomorrow, but 11 is not so bad for a one and done.
@ThomasMarkov I'd have held off until there's a new question and the asker finds it useful to create the tag... Not something I'd ever enforce but it feels like a good balance. 11 is probably a good threshold to make it worthwhile though.
@AncientSwordRage Yeah, I personally would not have created the tag, but now that it’s been done, meh. There are much bigger tags that I would like to see destroyed.
@AncientSwordRage I take the George W Bush approach to tags. “Read my lips: no new tags”, and then half way through the term realize new tags are sometimes necessary.
Pretty much the title question. Specifically, I'm interested in when they first given a stat block (if there were allusions to them earlier). I think it was an AD&D module, but don't recall which one; though it is always possible that they were first introduced in Dragon, or an extension rule bo...
