  • Sending doesn’t have a range limit, and explicitly works across planes 95% of the time.

    The big question here is what mechanically is them. Spells like Revivify target a dead creature, which means if the corpse isn’t the creature the spell won’t work. But there’s also no rule that dead creatures can’t talk or take actions or whatever, so you’d still be able to use Sending or just ask them normally. But that’s assuming they are a creature. The section on improvised weapons says that a dead goblin is an Object. If dying turns a Creature into an Object, then it could no longer take actions. But there’s also nothing saying that Creature and Object are mutually exclusive. maybe a corpse is both?









  • Of the ones I watched, it mostly seemed pretty fair. The leprechaun wanted people’s souls, which would presumably involve infinite torture. Probably not as bad, but the leprechaun probably wasn’t just going to do it once. He did make the Medusa’s imprisonment extra uncomfortable, but it doesn’t seem significantly worse than what she was trying to do to him. It’s not clear what the succubus would do, but I’m guessing she just kills them. And he made her death a little worse than needs be, but ultimately dying is the worst part of it and she’s presumably killing people regularly.

    Though the pegasus seems to be an exception. What he was doing probably was on par with the punishment he got, but I don’t think the barbarian knew anything about it. The best I could say is maybe the barbarian didn’t know he was sapient.

    Still, he doesn’t seem like a good person.






  • A DM’s job is to make sure everyone has fun. If they want to make things realistic or they don’t want people to play murder-hobos, they should talk about it. And if they and the players can’t figure out a game that would make all of them happy, they split up and find new groups instead of playing a game that makes everyone unhappy.
