My theory is you could probably feed it your medical history yourself, or potentially speak with whichever hospital would have it and ask them to share it with Samsung

When I changed dentists, I was told to ask my former dentist to give me my records to share it with them

Silly Billy, it doesn’t matter if the people in a non-Western country like their government, it only matters if we like their government (or to be more specific if our government likes their government; if our government doesn’t like their government and decides to go to war with them, we will also conveniently not like their government and it will be because we came to that position independently, not because we’ll feel we’re supposed to)

Reminds me of when during a DnD session my monk attempts a…I don’t even know what check I used, I don’t think 5e has handle animal; my monk does a check against a dire wolf (it had normal wolves with it as well) while we were up against a cliff, rolling to throw a stick off the edge pretending to play fetch with it; I roll a 20 and the DM has the dire wolf jump off the cliff

even if though the foreign state has never contemplated this potential advantage

So any time your imagination runs away with you, you need to treat others as your enemies?

Ah, good; honestly I remember taking rogue before this change was made (or perhaps it had been changed at that point but none of us at the table knew) and the problem was immediately evident; there’s a lot of stuff in 5e that makes me wonder what the heck the creators were thinking and if perhaps they just rushed the whole thing along and decided to just fix up any oversight later.

This is basically 5e sneak attack anyway (the ‘not having it’ aspect that is)

You can only get a sneak attack if you have advantage on an enemy, and you know what? You don’t have advantage on an enemy just cause you’re flanking them, that’s mentioned in the book as an optional rule the DM can allow (where flanking gives advantage) but isn’t the usual rule. In 3e/3.5e/PF, an enemy being flanked confers benefits including allowing sneak attacks. In 5e the only way to sneak attack without needing advantage is by taking the swashbuckler (specialization? Archetype?).

Huh…if I was running a DnD campaign again I would actually totally do this; ironically my players aren’t…heroic/humble? If the townsfolk began reacting negatively to the characters, the players would just stop fighting the bad guys. Spider-man would continue helping people if they hated him as much as JJ hates him because he can’t help but be heroic, my players would not. I’d have to confine the effects of the newspaper to just the newspaper itself.

Where’s the level 20 retired adventurers? I just see four average babushkas

“I’m having a cyclops blindingly good time!”

If this king doesn’t have access to wizards casting every defensive spell in the player’s handbook on him every single day of his life, wearing the best magical armor in the world that glamors into ordinary royal attire, with defensive wards cast around his immediate vicinity every day, and he just let adventurers stroll into his castle armed while he was being lax with all these precautions, then he deserves to get Kirked.

Yes

“Oh the monk is immune to poison?! Well hah! …I completely forgot”

I’m reminded of when a DM allowed me to throw a rock off a cliff and roll a diplomacy check to see if the dire wolf jumps after it; I succeeded with flying colors wolf

Of course not; they’ll feed them

Either they’re seeing how popular AI is becoming and they’re calling it that to get some of that popularity, or they’re using the term AI in a different way than it’s currently used (so for example referring to regular NPC behavior as NPC AI).

But capitalism has a copyright on innovations!

I hate this; back in 3e/3.5e a keen scimitar could crit on a 17 because a scimitar’s crit range was 18-20 (keen widens crit range)

I hate 5e for simplifying everything so much

Literally did this as the bard-healer of the group; one of the players got swallowed by a construct, so I went in after him, healed him and then cast heat metal on my armor…and then had to heal him again (I had full HP).

(Or maybe I cast heat metal on the construct; can’t remember, it’s been ages)

Throw it between each other between attacks; fighter makes his attacks, then tosses it to the druid to make his attacks, and then he tosses it back, and so on and so forth

I’ll paint a scenario and then you tell me what your action would be:

You come across a corridor, there’s a villain pulling a dead body off the wall; his face had been pushed into an indentation in the shape of a human face; the eyes of the indentation are holes allowing you to see into another room, although it is dark and what lays beyond isn’t immediately visible. In the hall before the face indentation are dead bodies; their eyes, along with the eyes of the body pulled from the wall, are smoking craters. When you near the indentation, you are struck by fear and it slows your movement.

What do you do?
