I’m not making fun of you I just thought it was a funny word :) Also, sorry about your butt.

No no, they didn’t do that until TNG

The DM gave him an OP magic item to compensate for his crappy build

Your worn items just kind of morph into your body when you wildshape. You don’t have to strip naked to go from humanoid to animal, for instance.

If those data feeds were mostly generated from gmail inboxes, then they’d naturally never see messages already caught by google, skewing the data. This reads like marketing.

Magic is rare in most settings.

RAW that wouldn’t do anything though.

I don’t really go on other networks, is there drama about .ml?

If you don’t want to do a one-shot, I still recommend keeping it short. 3-5 sessions perhaps. Just to dip a toe in and even out the kinks, and be able to feel good that you completed something. Decide if you want to commit to a big sprawling campaign after the first little demo campaign.

The federation changed forever on the day the Enterprise discovered the Planet of Chocolate Air

Pretty terrible movie, all things considered, but it does have a very satisfying ending.

Only the Doctor was sentient

I think it’s fine if they act like highschoolers in a show for highschoolers. It just means that’s not a show that’s for me.

I think you’re selling DS9’s progressiveness short. The federation is portrayed as less progressive, but the message of the show itself is far more progressive than the norm; if anything, it makes the federation standins for moderate/centrist/liberals and calls them out for not being left enough.

For sure! And that scarcity of resources and failing supply chains is a GREAT setting for questing!

A couple thoughts occur:

• If you wanted to justify big cities in wildernesses, you could use the prevalence of monsters to do so. Say it’s just too dangerous to have small villages, and everyone has to spend the night in a walled town/city for their own safety.
• I’m pondering how magic could effect this, too. You might have a whole Town in this ecosystem replaced by just a single wizard, who’s willing to magic up complex tools or luxuries in exchange for an exorbitant payment from the peasants.
• A lot of fantasy settings are lowkey post-apocalyptic, inspired by the Dark Ages and/or The Black Death. You may encounter isolated Villages that are struggling to scrape by as their Town got wiped off the map, or isolated Cities crammed full of starving refugees that fled their Villages.

Could you elaborate? How do their healing systems work? What makes them good?
