For no reason whatsoever, here is my favourite cover from Dragon Magazine (#143): I've cracked wise about this for years (and will continue to do so for my own enjoyment), but really I can't wait to run a one-shot using this as inspiration. Top Gun vs. Dragons anyone?

Illustrated cover of Dragon Magazine #143 depicting the inside of a slightly altered F18 Hornet fighter aircraft as it takes on a Red Dragon at night, the full moon peeking out from behind the clouds.

Unlike you, I get my news from a reliable source

A crazy pamphlet found on a bus that prominently features a skull and headers such as ‘5G Genocide’ and whatever ‘Weapons Grade Milimetre Wave’ is meant to be.

Misheard Magic Monday! This week's strangely gendered spell was found stuck to the back of a bathroom door in the local bardic college. #dnd #ttrpg #tabletop

A spell that reads:

Guy Dance
Enchantment Cantrip (Bard)

Casting Time: Action
Range: Touch
Components: S, M (a vial of alcohol)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

You touch a willing creature that identifies as male. Until the spell ends, the creature has Advantage on Charisma or Dexterity (Performance) checks. When the spell ends the creature is Poisoned for 1 minute.

Ok, petty issue with the new DMG: Why is the value of silver bars measured in gold pieces? I know the answer is that gold pieces are the standard element of counting but... (Real rant in the alt text)

Trade Bar table from the new Dungeon Masters Guide, where a 2-pound silver bar is valued at 10 gold pieces, not 100 gold pieces, which is the same value but feels wrong for some reason.

Say instead of a silver bar, you had the same amount in coin. You wouldn't push 100 silver pieces and say "There you go, that's 10 gold pieces." would you? You could argue it's easier to calculate, but then why not go all the way? Why not call it one 1 platinum piece?

If, theoretically there was a 5-pound platinum bar on this table, would it be worth 250 PP or would it be worth 2,500 GP?

Misheard Magic Monday! Each week, I plug my ears and mishear a spell. Let me know how you'd use it or suggest a spell for me to mishear next! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg #tabletop

Sea Invisibility
Level 2 Divination (Bard, Sorcerer, Wizard)

Casting Time: Action
Range: Self
Components: V, S, M (a sponge)
Duration: 1 hour

For the duration, you treat water as Invisible. You can still hear, feel, smell and otherwise sense the presence of water as you would normally, and it retains all other properties.
