Description Edit | History

Publisher blurb:

The first Dungeons & Dragons game was played back when Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson chose to personalize the massive battles of their fantasy wargames with the exploits of individual heroes. This inspiration became the first fantasy roleplaying game, in which players are characters in an ongoing fantasy story. This new kind of game has become immensely popular over the years, and D&D has grown to include many new ways to vividly experience worlds of heroic fantasy.

The core of D&D is storytelling. You and your friends may tell a story together, guiding your heroes through quests for treasure, battles with deadly foes, daring rescues, courtly intrigue, and much more. You can also explore the many worlds of D&D through any of the hundreds of novels written by today's hottest fantasy authors, as well as engaging board games and immersive video games. All of these stories are part of D&D.

User summary:

New edition of Dungeons & Dragons released in 2014 after two-and-a-half years of development including an open "D&D Next" playtest program which ran from May 2012 through October 2013. This edition of the game aims to take the best parts of all previous major editions of D&D, and to be extensible in a modular fashion, with Dungeon Masters adding new rules as needed and players having a flexible level of complexity in character design.

This RPG designates official D&D products released or licensed by Wizards of the Coast.
    • Unlicensed products which do not use the "Dungeons & Dragons" trademark (and which typically proclaim "Fifth Edition" or "5e" compatibility) should be assigned to the 5e Game System Product (D&D 5th Edition Compatible) RPG instead of to this RPG.
    • For preview, free-release, and playtest packets involved with the "D&D Next" effort, see D&D Next.

0 Kenmore RP Society Open Table Downtime Reckoning
Before each session, players present pick a life style and pay for it. The consequence may involve some ill health or robust health for the session. It also determines how much of their raw experience can be converted to trained experience. Only trained experience counts for leveling up. Gold can be used to pay for extra training.

4 Character Sheets - one page for non-caster second page for spellcasting
Revised character sheets. One page has no spellcasting, so it has a whole column for features, and lots of space for attacks and equipment. A non-casting class can use this one sheet for everything. There are two versions - skills listed alphabetically and by attribute. A spell page with a table for listing spells and their details such as casting time, duration, if it requires concentration or is a ritual. A spellcaster just adds this to the first sheet to have everything they need.

12 Complete D&D Checklist
I created a complete(ish) checklist of all D&D publications from the beginning. I did not include magazines. I hope that anyone takes this and improves it and re-shares it. I will probably try to update it as they release more stuff. If I missed anything let me know and and I will add it. If you have suggestions feel free to drop them to me. Hope this helps someone.

4 Journey System for exploration games - cribbed from The One Ring
I took the Journey system from The One Ring as well as a bunch of hazards for that system from online forums and modded them to work with 5E exploration games. I'm mainly going to use it with a "pathcrawl" game on a large island, but you could really use it for whatever you'd like.
