1. Oct 09, 2014  So the new Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition has minimized the combat system and veered away from advanced tactical rules and Flanking can not be found in the player’s handbook. I don’t think placing miniatures on a map exactly is really necessary, and sometimes I don’t mind placing miniatures on the table to get a general feel of combat. So being true to the new D&D5e rules, you would need.
2. Jan 24, 2017  A simple alternative to the current optional flanking rule in 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons. Quick modifiers for outnumbering or being outnumbered in combat. So I'm going to be DMing this Sunday, and one thing I want to introduce into combat is a quick and easy flanking rule that conveys some of the danger of being outnumbered in combat.
3. You attempt to TK disarm an opponent as per Disarm rules in the Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition DMG, page 271. Except the range is 30 ft and you are attempting to disarm by using a telekinetic attack rather than a weapon. You may increase the range of the disarm.
4. As a melee attack, you may attempt to disarm your opponent.If you do so with a weapon, you knock the opponent’s weapon out of his hands and to the ground. If you attempt the disarm while unarmed, you end up with the weapon in your hand.

In a typical campaign, characters aren’t driven mad by the horrors they face and the carnage they inflict day after day, but sometimes the stress of being an adventurer can be too much to bear. If your campaign has a strong horror theme, you might want to use madness as a way to reinforce that theme, emphasizing the extraordinarily horrific Nature of the threats the adventurers face.

Going Mad

Various magical Effects can inflict madness on an otherwise stable mind. Certain Spells, such as Contact Other Plane and , can cause insanity, and you can use the madness rules here instead of the spell Effects of those Spells. Diseases, Poisons, and planar Effects such as psychic wind or the howling winds of Pandemonium can all inflict madness. Some artifacts can also break the psyche of a character who uses or becomes attuned to them.
Resisting a madness-inducing effect usually requires a Wisdom or Charisma saving throw.

A character afflicted with short-term madness is subjected to an effect from the Short-Term Madness table for 1d10 minutes.
A character afflicted with long-term madness is subjected to an effect from the Long-Term Madness table for 1d10 × 10 hours.
A character afflicted with indefinite madness gains a new character flaw from the Indefinite Madness table that lasts until cured.

A Greater Restoration spell or more powerful magic is required to rid a character of indefinite madness.
