Okay, heroic inspiration. Okay, let's have a look. What's changed? So, inspiration is a rule that the DM uses to reward you. Blah, blah, blah. Yep, we know that. If you have expiration, you can expend it to... Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

how do you get here we go in the 2024 rules heroic inspiration functions similarly to the 2014 rules the primary difference being that a player can use it to re-roll any role in the game doesn't say how you gain it oh it's handed up the DM there are also new mechanics that allow players to earn inspiration in other ways for example the new champion subclass has an ability called heroic warrior that grants the character heroic inspiration at the start of a turn if they don't already have it

Because like, you know, not that I'm bitter, but like, you know, playing to your bonds and flaws and doing stuff that puts you at a disadvantage. because that's playing to your heroic traits, flaws, bonds, it's supposed to gain you inspiration. And people just didn't seem to like that.

For me, it's strictly cash. You pay for your inspiration.

Russ has got a different sort of vibe going on but Jessica that was how it was in 2014 as well it was either you got it based on doing something awesome at GM discretion I was like oh like Savage World Benny's Bish Bosh I know how this works that's great or it was doing the role playing aspect and they seemed to have removed the doing the role playing aspect no no it's still there I think that is that as well I think it's just a bit vaguer it's not like you have to do it specifically according to these bonds and flaws it's just up to the DM

Yeah, but it was always up to the DM. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's like this, an NQ inspiration, or it's up to DM, which would necessarily include if you did something cool.
