If you like:
- D&D 5e
- gaslamp fantasy
- characters who wear leather jackets rather than armor
- robots
- classless leveling
- alternative magic systems
- magic-powered biplanes dogfighting dragons
- lots of intrigue
Then stay tuned: I may have something for you in the pipeline.

If anyone is looking to make the move to Mastodon and has questions about it, please feel free to reach out. Additionally, I'm looking into potentially launching a TTRPG specific server and am currently reaching out to some contacts from when I helped run the WotC community.

Technically 'Frankenberry' is the name of the scientist.

@JoshuaMSimons @ThirstTrapMoth I sure picked a bad week to check back in on the TTRPG scene.

@SamWitwer The Andor armor is definitely better than my attempt, but I was proud of it at the time.

@Marakkel @XPtoLevel3 I played a Barbarian/Rogue named Badger that was loosely based on Wolverine. Rage was a single-minded focus on killing the target. Sneak attack was the innate knowledge of how to do that efficiently.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@pjmegaw @Mechfried @XPtoLevel3 D&D Next had a lot of really good ideas left on the cutting room floor.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@XPtoLevel3 Yes, it works. One of my favorite 5e characters was a Barbarian/Rogue named Badger that used a scimitar (initially two scimitars until she found a scimitar of speed and swapped the second for a shield).

@JacksNotFunny @JamesIntrocaso We have a strict no malarkey policy. Biden must have picked it up from fellow Amtrak passengers.

@i_zzzzzz Ahem...

Editions are more what you'd call guidelines, really...

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@ChrisSSims That was my initial reaction as well.

@mhoward1456 @themattylee @jglewis1983 @beth_doc @C_Stroop Now who is taking things out of context?

Exodus 21:16 prohibits stealing another man not slavery itself. Other passages in the Bible specifically provide ways to aquire slaves that aren't kidnapping: including war, debt, and the foreign slave market.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@mhoward1456 @themattylee @jglewis1983 @beth_doc @C_Stroop And I don't have any issues with any God. I do have issues with people who use their conception of God to excuse abhorrent behavior.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@mhoward1456 @themattylee @jglewis1983 @beth_doc @C_Stroop These verses are explicitly discussing purchasing slaves in foreign slave markets. Unless your claim is that Egyptian and Caananite slaves were exclusively refugees, that excuse doesn't hold water.

@RpgrsD I've got 7 years at WotC on my resume so it came up in the interview and the whole office knew before I started.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@JoshuaMSimons My first character (I was 9, at the time) was a Jedi survivor of the Clone Wars named Matthius Fenix. He joined the rebellion as a spy, and was given the codename "Whitelight". Basically Obi-Wan Kenobi meets James Bond.

[Matthew Lee @XPMatthewLee]

@CatieOsaurus 3.5 had the Factotum class which was almost exactly this.
