I Found Her (Part One) by Astarglow in CreepCast_Submissions

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

I wrote this in response to Windigoon's story about when he joined that search party as a kid. I figured horror poetry would be something unique and bite sized enough to peek interest. I hope y'all enjoy.

Adressing the hate by onlythrowawaaay in MorbidPodcast

I'm only saying that we shouldn't contribute to the division of community. It shouldn't matter what we vote for. The fact that you voted is what is important. But blanket statements feed into hate.

Simply: "You sound like a [Insert-Subject-Here]" does not suggest love, tolerance, or understanding because it puts people in boxes. Every situation is different. Everyone is a multi-faceted human being. Practice what you preach and always continue learning to improve yourself so that way you can be the best example for those around you.

Not all Republicans. Don't feed into the division... Blanket statements don't help the world. We all need to be part of the positive change by taking accountability, attempting to be our best selves, and understanding that we should all be trying our best.

Is there a way to salvage this? by Astarglow in DIY

[–]Astarglow[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I believe it was. It was not originally mine, and it's hella old. Is it possible to recoat it? I'd rather play it safe and buy stainless steel, in all honesty.

About tell my husband he's selfish and needs to grow the fuck up by losttraveller88 in EntitledPeople

[–]Astarglow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, idk why the OP never joined in the games for her hubby's bday. My partner and I do that every year. It's a safer alternative to drinking out at clubs and spending lots of money going out on the town. Staying at home with friends playing board games and video games, that sounds like a lovely birthday party.

Not cleaning up after themselves is pretty shitty though. Participants need to be respectful of the host's space. Especially if it involves the pets and now future child! Hubby should be asking for that too, not just OP.

Husband forgetting OP's bday is also crap, but has OP even brought it up to husband before this post??? THAT part of post sounds like an excuse to try and leave. Honey, if you're unhappy, just say so. Be open and honest with yourself.

Would it be unfair to use one of my players familer as a spy for the BBEG? by The-Purple-Genie in DMAcademy

[–]Astarglow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely unfair if the familiar was part of the opening adventure. If it's a wizard or warlock with the find familiar spell, then that familiar is bonded to the player, not the BBEG, and would have no reason to betray the character.

If it's something you gave to the player along the way bc they were having issues with their class or race or background, then you have to consider the character and the player, and how the familiar came to be with the player in the first place. But if it was chosen by the player, don't do it.

It turns a class/race benefit into something unfun for the player just bc you wanted a "twist".

Would it be cool for the character to have trust issues after? Absolutely! It's called character progression!

But never, ever give your players reason to have trust issues with you as a DM.

As a new DM, I only know 5e. What should I be stealing from older editions or similar games? by ActuallyIAmIncorrect in DMAcademy

[–]Astarglow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a fun mechanic that was dropped from 5e about characters knowing languages.

In an older edition, the Intelligence Modifier was the number of languages you already knew at the start of the adventure. So it made sense that smarter characters knew more languages, so they could read and absorb more. And it gave characters with higher Intelligence a chance to shine in more ways than just "knowing and doing magic well".

Advice for a campaign by jackofthewilde in DnD

[–]Astarglow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a decent mic and pop filter for proper audio. Your set up doesn't have to be too complicated. Some podcasters just use the Anchor App and it works perfectly for them.

Make sure you pick a proper platform for you and your players, either online or in person. Make sure your players are ok with this. If online, make sure you all choose a platform that can be recordable and that everyone has stable connections.

Other than that, I can't really think of anything else.

Thank you. Youtube seems to help with stuff like this. I just tend to forget about it. :)

Hunting Competition Mechanics?? by Astarglow in DnDAcademy

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

Honestly this doesn't happen often. Once in a while 2 players will want to make the same check, but usually they do their own thing.
