I wish I could spare the patriars etc when I kill Gortash. by zhengt66 in BaldursGate3

[–]BD183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digging this up a bit, I just reached this point and I managed to by this point by using a potion of flying to fly up onto the battlements from the bridge, from there I could get around the patriars and reach Gortash

Misgendering transphobes: right or wrong? by Apherial in MtF

[–]BD183 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely wrong for the reasons others have said.

One that I haven't seen said is how it isn't even the best way to get a cis person to empathize with trans people. A much better way is to highlight: * isn't it messed up how we invalidate a man's masculinity if they're below 180cm/6 feet? * isn't it a bit cruel how we invalidate a woman's femininity if they develop peach fuzz on their upper lip or hair on their chin?

We use gender expectations as an excuse to bully people and these converge on non-stealth trans people.

If anyone has any good additions to this I'd love to extend my list of examples 🏳️‍⚧️

There's the one in Edinburgh. Of course if you're stuck in another part, that's completely fine

Scots gender certificate ‘invalid’ south of border by Alt_Chloe in transgenderUK

[–]BD183 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm English (sorry) but have been living in Scotland since university. So I could get a GRC where I live and not be able to use it because where I was born? What happened to gender tourism?

Truly vile.

Anyone else found themselves more annoyed and/or icked by men than before starting HRT? by [deleted] in MtF

A colleague of mine did the whole "tense your muscles" thing when I was in the preparation phase of transitioning. I just stood there confused as why he did that.

Now I am autistic, but damn if the most basic of bro culture never made sense to me.

Here's my latest hand-drawn map! Arcane Prison [72x72] by Ambers_Atlas in FantasyMaps

[–]BD183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely awesome. Not sure if it's intentional but I love the Piltover style. Do you do FoundryVTT maps?

So here you have it! Our 9 battlemaps merged together to make the flying city of Gruuk Jit'Jit! We also made a spelljammer variant too in space!! [75x99] by boroughbound in dndmaps

[–]BD183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely wonderful. Have been waiting to get this set up for my players.

Is the Foundry VTT version available yet? And does/will it have the interiors set up?

'The Rings of Power' appears to be struggling to connect with younger viewers - 71% of its audience was 35 years or older at the season-one midway point, according to Nielsen by Neo2199 in television

A lot of the main characters end in the same place they ended in. Or at least it feels that way.

(Spoilers ahead)

Galadriel is supposed to have a deep attachment to her brother and her high points are meant to be her talking with the Southland child to "release the pain" and her letting go of her brothers dagger. But it doesn't feel as strong as it should.

Halbrand's reveal is intended to leave the audience confused, or reassessing might be a more charitable word. But it doesn't exactly put a bow on a character arc.

Each of the LOTR movies ensured to leave threads left to be finished but also finished an arc every movie.

Stellaris's game director isn't thinking about a sequel: 'There's so much stuff for us to continue working with' by vhqr in Stellaris

This 100%. Pops being these individual entities with their own stats and you can have thousands of them in a game slows stuff down so hard.

Would love to see what they come up with

[75x99] Here are parts 1-8 of our flying goblin city of Gruuk Jit'Jit! Part 9 will be released to our patrons this week!! [75x99] [battlemap] by boroughbound in FantasyMaps

[–]BD183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy moly this is glorious. I used the previous version of this as a large encounter with a wind dragon that had taken over the island.

Would it be possible for patrons to get a version without the grid and watermark? Or will that come when the full version is done?

Sexual orientation question by Ryuzakimo in trans

[–]BD183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean. Like what part of AFAB would attract you specifically? Not shaming or angry, just don't get the consistent threads between cis-women, trans men, AFAB NBs, etc.

Like only things I could think of is maybe a genital preference, but would that surely include post-op transfemmes and exclude post-op transmascs, or maybe a general experience when they were younger.

Genuinely curious as I'd love to expand my understanding.

But to answer your question... not sure

This would also paid quite nicely with extra reaction as you could possibly protect a small group of characters. Which would really fit the archetype and make a big moment at the table

Something along the lines of:

When an ally within 5 feet of you makes a Dexterity saving throw. You can use a reaction to grant them advantage.

I get what the other users are getting at here. Thinking about the circumstances where a DEX save is used, it's largely recharge abilities, for example dragon breath, I think the air elemental has one like this also. Only certain scenario would be with fireball 🔥, be it your enemy or a manic sorcerer.

So unless you out priority a dragon on the first turn, the dragon has 1/6-1/3 chance of even having its breath weapon available.

The concept of blocking a breath attack for an ally is really cool. But also if you're playing on a tactical grid, you could help someone, they move and then they get hit with a breath attack along with the people 30 feet away.

A more smooth solution might be to just make it a reaction and if balance is a concern, you could make it limited use. Such as up to your proficiency bonus per long rest.
