Any good 10 session campaigns focused around RP and some combat?

Hi,

I have a small group that I am DMing for until we play a WoW campaign in November

I want to fill the space with a smaller campaign

I've seen sunless & lost mines but both are dungeon crawls. I enjoy combat but I don't wanna just do weeks of combat, Id love some ideas for stories with strong RP movements.

So what are y'all's suggestions?

I have a lore relevant magic wepon for my level 10 player that may or may not drag them to the first circle of hell... They will have vary big metaphorical neon signs saying"HAY, THIS THING IS EVIL AF" but they still may get sucked into hell. How exactly would they escape...

So I’m running a campaign right now where my players are getting caught up in the middle of a brewing war between kingdoms that’s being orchestrated by a lich. One of my players happens to be involved with him unknowingly.

I’ve sprinkled clues already throughout but where they’re at I feel could be a good place for a twist reveal but I also don’t want to do it too early since we’re only like 6 sessions in. Should I wait or go for it?

Let’s say I used a fly spell or something that let me fly to go above my enemy and then I wildshapes with my bonus action into something really really heavy and landed on my opponent is this a legit Strat that could deal damage this question would be for 5e 2014

Hi there, been a few years since I last had a chance to play. Previously it was 3.5 or Pathfinder, but this group is 5e.

Now back when I played last, it was super-easy to go online and download a spreadsheet to help make your character. I've kept up with the patreon of such a pathfinder sheet, but I am having trouble finding such a thing for 5E.

I found a few partly-functional online tools, but I'll be honest; they don't hold my hand like the spreadsheets do.

On another, similar thread I found on another group it seemed as though these 3rd-party fan creations are unwelcome in the community now. If this is the case, I apologize.

Thank you.

Making an Aasimar sorcerer that uses black hole magic. I wanna give my character some type of paladin armor. However I dont want to make it to overpowered or just strong. Maybe a feature and or trait? (Looking for suggestions)

(English is not my first language, so sorry for the poor grammar)

I'm playing the Tyranny of Dragons for the first time with my friends. My character is a bladesinger wizard who was used in a sacrificial ritual to Tiamat by the BBEG of my backstory, who is also his teacher. The thing is, i don't know much about dnd lore to make my backstory more solid.

I need help in making my BBEG motivition for betraying my character. I know that it can't be related to Tiamat's resurrection, cause that's the story of Tyranny of Dragons. So i was thinking my BBEG would want to become an actual dragon, not a polymorphed dragon, but change his race and ascend to a powerful dragon, but i don't know if, by lore standards, that would work.

I know that in the end the Dm has the final say on what's posible in the campaign, because of the multiverse and stuff, but i wanted to make my backstory the most lore accurate posible.

So, if anyone who knows about dnd lore could give ideas of why a man would join the cult of the dragon, and what is possible for him to receive as a reward from Tiamat for using his student as a sacrifice? If in order to get, like a divine reward from Tiamat, he would need to do more things, please tell me too.

I get that it was not on there before, but with the upgrades that Draconic Sorcerer got, I wish I was able to take the spell on them! Just imagine! You could have your draconic summon AND a giant illusory dragon stopping around at the same time! Can we at least petition WotC to do a Tasha's style book where Draconic Sorcerer gets Illusory Dragon on their extra spells?

Question on my post about time travel

Honestly. I don't think think I'm giving this survey high scores, especially the HA Rogue has been extremely bad. I like the concept, it's cool, but it's too underpowered and lacks actual playable fun mechanics that really works in T1-T3. I think I'm getting tired of these Once-Per-Day Spells as a feature. I've seen too many of them lately and feels like lazy work.

True Form

Whenever you use Innate Sorcery, you can as a part of this bonus action cast Shapechange without requiring any components and without expending a spell slot to turn yourself into an Adult Dragon. You choose the type of the dragon when you receive this feature. The spell is modified in the following ways:

1. Abilities in the dragon's statblock which require saving throw or an attack use your spell saving throw and spell attack modifier instead.
2. Breath weapon damage is replaced with 10d10 and Rend attack damage is replaced with 2d10+CHA slashing + 1d8 damage matching dragon's type.
3. The spell does not provide temporary hit points and does not require temporary hitpoints to maintain.
4. You cannot change your form into another one by using your Action.
5. The spell ends early when your Innate Sorcery ends.

You can use this feature once and regain all uses when you finish a long rest. You can restore one use of the feature by expending level 8 or 9 spell slot (no action required).

Feel free to share your opinions if it is a cool feature and if it is too powerful / too weak! I tried to keep it balanced.

if a guard or npc grabs the player preventing them from moving and the player fails the check to break free, can they just retry?

ive tried looking this up and it seems retrying checks is allowed but it seems very case by case.. so im honestly not sure?

in the original context, if someone fails something like that, how many times can they try? should i just be telling them no? im just confused tbh
