5e's character creation is out of control.
Creativity
Hello LP readers, and welcome to part two! In this second half, I’ll be going over the creation process of my Dragon pantheon. My DM gave me a very specific set of guidelines to follow in this creation, so we’ll also see how I explored those challenges along with carving […]
Father of Dragons: Creating a Pantheon, Part 2

101 Damnations: Creating a Pantheon, Part 1
