Silverlight Dagger   Weapon (dagger), common  This weapon is considered to have the silvered property.  As a bonus action, you can command the blade of this dagger to shed silvery light, creating bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet. Also, as a bonus action you can extinguish this light.  Even without the light effect active, the blade of the dagger always seems to glint in in whatever light is present.     

I've finally been giving Obsidian Portal a try. I had made this page a couple of years ago when I started the Campaign of the Lost but never really updated it because I hadn't the extra free time then. Campaign of the Lost at Obsidian Portal I'm also using the free service, which means I'm severely limited in my uploads. So here's some art assets I'm posting here to link to there.

We were about 15th level in a 3.5 campaign and events kept spiraling into war.  It became inescapable and everyone agreed we needed someway to resolve some battles.  The players needed to have a stake in it, and had to be decided in-game.  Well, that's what we all decided anyway.  There's as many ways of handling big story elements as there are big story elements. I took a couple of weeks to come up with a workable solution for moving units in combat.  My method of resolving this was to treat a unit as it were an individual character.  I'd probably come up with a different method in 5e.  I might be tempted to use swarm rules... have a swarm of cavalry, for instance.
