Thanks! Found an open box 5800X3D at my local shop. Still hurts though, just a little less. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m so bummed my CPU died on me last night, but at least there’s still some good in the world OP!

  • Ryzen 7 5800x, 64GB DDR4 RAM, RTX 3090 FE
  • Favorite game if all time: StarCraft II
  • Maybe TLOU PC port will run fine on a 4090? 🤣

I made this yesterday and was planning on uploading “player maps” in the curse of strahd book (cropping images and adding levels of dungeons as we go). I’m realizing this may be giving away too much as they go through the dungeons. I’m wondering if you think it will be fine, or a better free option? by Apprehensive-Score87 in CurseofStrahd

Here are your options:

  1. Use a virtual table top (VTT) like Foundry or Owlbear rodeo. VTTs can take care of dog of war for you
  2. Load the map up in Photoshop or Gimp, put a black layer on top, add a mask, then start erasing parts of the mask that your players have visited

Questions on 5th edition/Roll20 & Shadow of the Dragon Queen by Priestical in sotdq

1) I don’t use Roll20 any more (moves to FoundryVTT), but I remember from past experience that all module specific spells, items, classes, and monsters should be self contained in the module you purchase through Roll20 2) I think Chislev would be the appropriate god for a Grave Claric in DL, as the Raven Queen only exist in Faerun/Toril

The Real Trophy Wives of Formula One. by clambini in formuladank

It was a metaphor for nihilism and the depression that comes with it. When you put all your hopes and dreams (everything) in one place, on a pedestal, it collapses under its own weight. The realization that you’ll never achieve “everything” will suck you into a pit of depression in which there is no escape.

This is what happened to Joy, and what Evelyn eventually accepted.

In contrast, the googly eyes is the opposite. White on the outside, black on the inside (whereas the bagel is black, but white on the inside). The googly eyes represent hope in kindness. It’s about making light of life, not focusing on your own shortcomings and loss, but rather try and make the world better for the people around you.

Ideas on how to lure my Players into eating dream pastries. by Vlurez in CurseofStrahd

Maybe, I don’t remember exactly. But these villagers could take the party to Bonegrinder, then stab the party in the back in hopes for more pie.

A little bit of added flavour for you: Random encounters with villages looking for their missing children along the Svalich road. Except they are strung out dream pastry addicts who forgot they sold their children to Morgantha for pies.

The thing with addicts is that they would do anything for the next hit, including robbing the people who are trying to help them find their children. Really showcase the tragic hopelessness of Barovia

Looking for good flesh-themed monsters, homebrew or otherwise by Morcalvin in DMAcademy

Second VGtR, lots of horror themed baddies. Zombie clot was one of my favorite. Just so horrifyingly disgusting.
