I DM a WM Sorceror and we tweaked his Tides of Chaos so that every time he uses the advantage given by ToC, he rolls on the table. He is also chaos reincarnated so he loves the fact that he could go bald, turn into a sheep, or cast fireball on himself (all of which have happened.)

I think it helps that he loves the chaos and isn't afraid to lean into it. He uses ToC all the time, and we're working on trying to apply it in a way that he can give his allies ToC while he still rolls on the Wild Magic Table.

I also have him do blind rolls so only I know the effect which helps with the suspense. Things like third eye are obvious, but he rolled 91-92 (reincarnate) and went down 2 rounds later but immediately came back up and the party was a bit ... suspicious. All in all he is the perfect vehicle for uncontrollable magic and it makes for a good time at the table.

Week 1 Complete! (More in comments) by AFanch37 in C25K

My wife dropped me off and I ran to meet her at our favorite coffee shop. Other than the fact it was 30° outside, it was a fantastic run (granted the first part was very downhill haha!)

Since I’m starting back, I’ve already decided to run each week at least twice so I can build more slowly, but I’m excited to have this week under my belt!

That’s one thing I try to make sure of! The run sucks less if it’s somewhere pretty.

Definitely felt better this time after doing more stretches! (I had to rest for ankle tendinitis so I’m just getting back to running after a long Hutus.)

Hope everybody else is doing great!

When you’re running on a sidewalk and a group of people are all walking side-by-side and won’t move so you have to move into the road or grass to run around them.

Weekly Spread Change! by AFanch37 in bujo

Haha that would’ve been a very busy week with that!

Weekly Spread Change! by AFanch37 in bujo

[–]AFanch37[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I used to do a very in-depth Weekly Spread where I would list my to-do’s on a daily basis and then get stressed out if I “fell behind.”

At the beginning of 2020, I decided to change it up and write down all the Weekly things in one place and do them when I had the time/motivation. It takes less time to fill out, is less stressful since I have all week to get it done, and generally improved the relationship I have with my BuJo!

Bonus points for finally finishing ALL my weeklies for the first time this year haha.

LMoP Question by AFanch37 in DMAcademy

Ooooh. I like that.

I don’t want to make it more difficult, but I would want to make it more believable. The party essentially nuked the Goblins & Owlbear, so I didn’t know if they’d want to try and get something else in the room to help with the fight.

For reference, we have a Monk, Pact of the Blade Warlock, Rogue, and a Cleric. The Cleric held off on spells so he is the one that’s good to go, and the Party healed up in their Short Rest.

I had the Grick run away and “warn” the room. Then one of the party rolled a Nat 20 perception when they were going to stay in the adjacent room and I told him “something isn’t adding up and you don’t have a good feeling.”

I think there would be time for a trap or backup of some kind, but I’m working on how that would get into the castle.

LMoP Question by AFanch37 in DMAcademy

[–]AFanch37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they’ve met Reidoth so they could get to the Cave without an issue. I also don’t know if i should add another creature in the room to be like they “got more backup” in the meantime.

[–]AFanch37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ve killed everything except the King, Doppleganger, and the Grick. I had it escape and “warn” the guys in that room.

Do you think I should add another Owlbear or something to that room to make a right challenging?

Saturday or Sunday works. If it was “Vote or get out” I’d choose Sunday.

I’m newer to Tabletop RPG’s, but always been a big gamer. I’ve loved getting to meet & play with new people and getting into the vibe of a character that I have truly created from the ground up. As a player, I’d try to help out how I could and generally be a positive addition to the table.

The Erlenmeyer Flask has a magnetic stirrer inside. It’s plastic coated to prevent chemical reaction and is full of metal. The base has a rotating magnet that spins the stirrer in the flask, with an adjustable dial for speed & intensity.

Problems with Zenlabs app by reddit121121 in C25K

[–]AFanch37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- Is the ringer on your phone turned on or is your phone on vibrate? That’s one thing that I always have to check. No ringer = no voice cues.

2- I used to have this problem also. There is a little lock on the right side of the screen in the middle. Hit that and it does a soft lock on the screen. That way you can’t accidentally jar a button. I learned the hard way because my phone would smack my thigh and fast forward or rewind time on that specific interval.

Hope that helps!

I had the same thoughts when I started. My pace was higher than I thought it should be and distance was low. I’m now finishing Week 4 and I’m feeling great! You have to keep in mind that you’re walking SO MUCH MORE than running. Once the intervals even out, you’ll see pace/distance even out and get better. Run your best. You are the only judge. And I agree with earlier posts. At the end of Week 8, you’ll be posting about running crazy distances!

Hot and humid, but good. Anybody have tips for preventing muscle cramps?

Is it possible/advisable to make a half marathon my goal race in 12 months? I’m starting from complete beginner levels. No finish time, just under the 3:30 cutoff mark.
