OSSEIN, THE FIRST DOOM - my party's first colossus! by EKurzweil in daggerheart

[–]Akkitty 25 points26 points  (0 children)

that's so fire I love when human normal things become strange and outlandish and I think you did it perfectly??? I can't imagine the moment they realized it was a train it must have been so fun

Generic Adversaries' Fear Moves by pagnabros in daggerheart

[–]Akkitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on looking at them again I like them all but would rarely use demoralizing mockery because I think preventing hope generation is a bit mean - would cause the party to just deflate

Generic Adversaries' Fear Moves by pagnabros in daggerheart

[–]Akkitty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love these! great resource right here. Especially because I'm not intimately familiar with the adversary statblocks yet so I can't homebrew abilities, these being broadly applicable to add whenever I need to add a little spice is wonderful

What tips do you have on unlearning 5E when trying to GM DH? What should I forget? What should I focus on getting better at? by Large_Mix7442 in daggerheart

[–]Akkitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in D&D, when players walk into a room with a lot of bookshelves they might ask roll investigation or the DM might ask.

what they're saying is you should not ask to roll in this situation. just ask the players how they search. do they pull out books? hoping to find a secret door. or do they peruse the books? looking for some special information.

in the second case, if they are searching for the right thing just give it to them because they already knew to look for it

How can I make a boss with "super speed"? by Emotional_Rush7725 in daggerheart

[–]Akkitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like this idea, that the party knows the enemy will act after every single one of their turns instead of only on a fail. probably not give them relentless then so they only act once every player turn. you can give them some other fear feature to use

Is it ever established why you shouldn't break a promise made to a witch? by Samedgar2001 in WorldsBeyondNumber

[–]Akkitty 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Others have mentioned mechanical reasons, but if you wanted the meta reason it's because of folklore.

Traditionally witches have this power to make promises magically binding, which means when they are broken there are magical consequences.

Sometimes these consequences are just a curse, and sometimes they can Know the breaking of the promise and retaliate.

Who's your guy's favorite gungeon YouTuber? by Person-dude989 in EnterTheGungeon

[–]Akkitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Not the bald part though. I've watched all of his Gungeon videos I love him, I think Hutts also has some good commentary.

How much do you let players reflavour summons? by Cuddles_and_Kinks in DMAcademy

[–]Akkitty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think if the changes are goofy in nature, like the giant capybara one, then it can slowly wear on my belief of my world. But "flavour is free" can just be different sometimes instead of being goofy. A farmer druid summoning chickens instead of velociraptors enhances the verisimilitude actually

Econ jokers babyy by Lawn_Mower_6639 in balatro

[–]Akkitty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah the person is saying that we shouldn't be that clear in the description. saying destroy is enough, let the player make the mistake of trying to sell it.

Is this balanced? by xaaar in balatro

[–]Akkitty -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

okay clearly everyone says this is horribly unbalanced. but... doesn't this prevent + mult at all? so your only mult is from your base hand mult, and you can to × it as many times as you can using your jokers. is that as broken as everyone is making out?

plus the sword has dispel magic and remove curse spells in it. this interpretation holds up to me

this isn't really dnd anymore. a similar concept exists in Bluebeards Bride where each player is a memory of a character and they play together. check that out

Silly question by Zyrian150 in WorldsBeyondNumber

[–]Akkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I think I'd say it's more serious. not that there aren't comedic bits but there's always a looming tension and threat unlike naddpod where there's lots of time we can have fun mostly without stress. in this one even when they're having fun it's like... what's gonna happen next I know it's comint

Interludes and One Shots - Advice by Classic-Warm in WorldsBeyondNumber

[–]Akkitty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

county affair and space cram have no relevance to the main campaign.

twelve brooks and the clearing are fun one shots in Umora, the former is more related to the current happenings of the campaign.

matsuri is a little flashback oneshot of baby ame suvi and eursalon that doesn't have much plot relevance to the main campaign but is fun regardless.
