    First off, how did I not see this for two days? I have been tweaking some stuff / actively checking this thread the past couple... ah, I see, you slipped in right after a check. Figures. :P

    OGL drama hasn't changed anything currently, given the rollback.

    Currently I'm dealing with what may be the main hurdle for a One D&D version - the split between Warrior/Mage/Priest/Expert. Most Ozodrin fit Warrior, but then you have Eye/Puppet and a few other builds that are iffy.

    Puppet: If I changed Parasite to being a dex-based saving throw (for attaching, still Cha for charm) that would help... but its still iffy, I think? Puppet really needs a way to attack in the event its the party's only frontliner and didn't grab tentacle as a secondary, but that's hard to fit in. Could rework puppet self some more, I guess.

    Eye: Might need to be overhauled to fit that box, tbh. Has anyone played an Eye-Primary Ozodrin in an extended campaign? I feel like it is the least popular/playtested trait (as a primary, at least). Been working on Eye recently as it is, although those changes were for other reasons. I like the new middle option for Framing Gaze although the name "Duplicate Motion" could use some work...

    On another note, I made a few eye changes recently. I also very recently made a puppet change I'm more iffy on:

    I changed Puppet Self to replace the +5 max hp with something that would still help with surviving but would scale better while being less powerful at level 1 (bonus action, sac any amount of non-temp HP to gain twice as much temp HP until start of next turn).
