    Wisdom is perception and intuition. Intelligence is mental acuity, recall, reasoning.

    I find it funny that the abilities are still so debated when they are explained pretty well in every DND book. I feel like it gets brought up almost once per session lol.

      I suspect that one disconnect is that we’re not specifically talking about DND. This isn’t an RPG community or a DND community. It’s just a comic strip community.

      The comic has a cloak of wisdom, but otherwise seems to be entirely in a modern setting.

      The person I responded to just mentioned “intelligence” and “wisdom”, and people do talk about these with regard to real life and not games. In fact, my aphorism about looking both ways at a one-way street is one that was created referencing real life.
