Both races have the same limits on their strength, and athletics, but it’s hard to imagine why. A Goliath could feasibly lift and throw a gnome, yet the Gnome, following rules as written, can pin down a Goliath, fairly easily, if statted correctly.
Is there an in-universe explanation as to why such dramatically different sized creatures can wrestle on an even playing field?
How might a DM explain a scenario in which a gnome beats a goliath in any kind of test of strength?
In the D&D 4e game I run, I am planning on soon having my players go to the Feywild on an adventure. Something I’d like to try to pull off during this is to have a subversion of expectations. Basically, I’d like to have the players come across a very peaceful-seeming village of gnomes. However, after spending a little bit in the village, the players will realize that the gnomes are actually evil and vicious: they are canibals and demon-worshippers who lure travelers in to kill them.
My question is, how can I pull this off effectively? I’d like to drop subtle hints about the gonme’s true nature, and I’d like to have the realization come about gradually and naturally, rather than hamfistedly.
How can I hint that a seemingly peaceful group is secretly murderous? How can I hint at their true nature, and make the dramatic reveal effectively?
My group has previously joked about my gnome Bard disguising himself as an Orc and broadly suggested that wouldn’t work because of the height difference.
However, my interpretation (based on understanding of disguise kits and deception) is that accounting for the height difference (i.e. stilts) is implied in the disguise/deception process.
If I put myself in the shoes of the GM, the only limiting factor I can see is the availability of the materials to make the disguise.
How does the game handle this attempt?
I’m just beginning to DM my first campaign, and one of my players asked this of me.
She plays an Orc with 20 strength, so theoretically I think she probably could drop-kick a Gnome, but I have no idea how to calculate it, or what kind of number I’d require her to roll on a check for it.
Forgive me if this is somewhere in the DM’s Guide, I haven’t been able to find anything.
Background: Where is the suspend/hibernate button in GNOME Shell?
I think this design looks clean and is convenient to use but practically impossible to discover without the help of google. It feels like the developers are deliberately discouraging the use of sleep.
Is there a email thread that can explain for the rationale of the current design?
I’m playing a DnD-5e campaign with some co-workers; it’s my first role-playing in, oh, decades and something like my 4th character ever. I know when to ask for help. Help!
I’m instructed to create a 4th-level character to join an existing party, and I had in mind to create a very, very old female Forest Gnome Warlock; something akin to a wizened medicine woman. I’m using the PHB as a reference, as well as roll20 and other online resources.
I feel this character is quite powerful for its level, so please tell me all the mistakes I did in interpreting the build rules.
Looking at cantrips, a forest gnome gets two right out of the gate; Minor Illusion and Speak with Small Beasts (which refers to Beast Speech, which refers to Speak with Animals — if accurate, I’m still going to limit it to tiny creatures). As for the warlock, at 4th level she’d have 3 cantrip slots; adding Pact of the Tome is said to yield three additional cantrip slots. The total comes to 2+3+3 = 8 cantrips for a 4th-level forest gnome warlock. Really?
Looking at spells, at 4th level a warlock would have two 2nd-level spell slots and five slots for “known spells” (which, I gather, can only be swapped out when you gain a level).
Looking at invocations, at 4th level a warlock would have two invocation slots. I’m not quite sure about the difference between invocations and cantrips; for my character I have chosen Agonizing Blast (which functions as a permanent booster for a separate cantrip) and Mask of Many Faces (which, it seems, might as well be a cantrip?).
Then, stats. My base stats are:
STR: 8 DEX: 10 CON: 12 INT: 14 WIS: 13 CHA: 15 but then I can add:
so my final stat block becomes:
STR: 8 DEX: 10+1 = 11 CON: 12+1 = 13 INT: 14+2 = 16 WIS: 13 CHA: 15+1 = 16 and for Hit Points that should give me 8 (base) +2 (CON modifier) + 3×5 (fixed increase from each level above 1st) = 25 HP.
Does this all seem reasonable, or am I way off base here? I really don’t intend to be a munchkin; I had this person in mind before I looked into its construction.
That is the core of my question. For additional information, here are the spells I thought I could be choosing:
I extend to you most humble and sincere thanks.
Several Pathfinder sources indicate that gnomes don’t exactly die of old age in the traditional sense. Instead, gnomes who don’t regularly experience new and exciting things undergo “The Bleaching”, which causes their hair and skin to turn gray and their minds to deteriorate. I’m trying to find more information about this process, particularly…

Can I list all available notifications and their summary using a terminal command?
I’m having an issue where pycharm can’t detect Super + O because it’s being picked up by gnome for the orientation lock shortcut. I can disable orientation lock in dconf editor, but the shortcut seems to remain there. How might I get that shortcut back? Thank you!
