Neverwinter. The name brings to mind the classic Dungeons & Dragons fantasy setting—The Forgotten Realms. Made famous most recently by smash BioWare hit Neverwinter Nights, older gamers might actually remember it from the premier AOL graphical RPG of the same name. It was quite literally the first of its kind: an online role-playing game with actual visuals! It came out in 1991 and had a six year run before it shut down. This was a pre-MMO title, limited initially to fifty players per server at launch before growing each to 500 by 1995.

This 5E Fighter guide covers the latest fighting styles and subclasses from the Players Handbook to Xanathar’s Guide to Everything.

This Bard optimisation guide is to help players (and DMs) with the 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons Bard choices.
That said, if you have a fun idea for your character that isn’t based around ‘charop’, don’t be afraid to put fun ahead of numbers.
