Death Saves Alternatives

By
Before we dive into any changes, let's review the basic rules first. Death Saves in D&D 5e: What they are and how to use them . Death saving throws are an important part of Dungeons & Dragons 5e. They decide if a character survives after being knocked out by damage. The summary of the rules for them is: Rolling a d20: At the start of each turn after a character drops to 0 hit points, roll a d20. A roll of 10 or higher is a success, while a roll of 9 or lower is a failure. Stabilisation: If a character rolls three successes before three failures, they stabilise and are no longer in danger of dying. If they roll three failures, they die. Stabilisation Methods: Allies can stabilise a character by performing a DC 10 Wisdom (Medicine) check. If successful, the character becomes stable and stops making death saves. Healing: Any healing spell or potion that gives the character 1 hit point or more restores them to consciousness and resets the death saving throw count. Understandi...

An Acorns life

By
 In the land of sundried tomatoes, lives an acorn who wishes to be a tree. The Acorn is happily growing from its branch, as its time will come, when it can be tree. As the months progress it swells and grows, it is ripe n ready for its time. Finally its time came, and it sprung free from its bond to the tree, free to grow further and independent of the tree, free to reach up to its potential. Hitting the ground it landed softly in a bed of leaves. My time is here, I must show them I can be tree. When suddenly a squirrel came along and stuffed the acorn into its gob and chowed down on it. For the Acorn was not to be a tree, the Acorn was to be squirrel shit.

About The Hobbits Hole Roleplaying Club in South East London

By
Roleplaying in South East London since 1999 The Hobbits Hole Roleplaying club was founded back in 1999 in South East London when a regular group of role-players from the South East London Wargames Group (SELWG) decided to setup their own club dedicated to Roleplaying Games. Carol aka "The Hobbit" found our first venue, the Ringway Centre, in Grove Park and the The Hobbit's Hole was formed. Ringway centre years For a few years the Hobbits Hole RPG club ran several games each Friday night at the Ringway centre, usually 2 or 3 games at once each night. Games such as Palladium Fantasy, Alternity, Steve Jackson's GURPS and many other home brewed systems created by club members. The centre was great and we continued to grow in numbers as new people joined by word of mouth and soon realised that we had outgrown the venue and needed somewhere larger. Linda, another founding member, in 2003 found a replacement hall in the Coldharbour Community Hall. Coldharbour Community Hall ...

The curse of the coffin

By
Three men, Gary, Dan, and Job, grew up together as best friends. They dreamed of one day becoming rich and would do anything to attain wealth. One day, as they were sitting in the local bar, they overheard another group of men discussing the long lost buried treasure of Captain Sleazybeard. The three friends agree that this is their chance to make it big and decide to go together to find this treasure. After searching for months deep in the jungle, they come across a cave that they are certain contains the treasure. There are many traps within the cave: poisoned arrows, moats of crocodiles, pits of fire, and rolling boulders, but the three friends are determined to get their wealth. Finally, they reach the deepest part of the cave and it is *filled* with treasure: gold, diamonds, rubies, and more! In the center of the cave is a large sepulchre with the words of a strange language written across it and depictions of death and suffering all along its sides. The three friends paid it no h...
