2024-05-17, 06:58 AMSchwann145 replied to a thread Speculation More 2024 PHB Revelations from the GameInformer Article in D&D 5e/NextI simply don't believe planetouched races/species/whatever should be in Core.

2024-05-08, 11:51 AMI think the underlying problem is really that, if we're being honest, Fighter lacks a theme. It's the "blank slate" class. Barbarian is a "fighter"...88 replies | 7747 view(s)
