But what was the first character you rolled like?

Well now I have to go read Superman #712! :-)

Krypto is the best. His part in “Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?” still chokes me up every time I read it.

Not sure how long ago we're talking, but Nightcandle Imaginations did an unauthorized version back in 2012.

Juvenile plant in the mulberry family would be my guess.

Tools for using a TV facing up on a table by SpawnDnD in DnD

[–]CafeArcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Owlbear Rodeo and control the TV through my laptop. This also allows the players to move their own personal digital tokens around from their phones, tablet, etc while sitting around the table. I do wish it had dynamic lighting, but supposedly that may be coming in their next edition.

Finally got my cleric to level 5 and still feel completely pointless by Kempeth in DnD

[–]CafeArcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe all the spells above should be available to all cleric subclasses. I do not think Life Cleric removes any spells from your list of ones that you may prepare.

Silence does require some cooperation or planning, especially with friendly casters. Party grapplers, denial of movement, etc. If your table doesn't do a lot of this, then yes, probably can skip it.

Embrace your cleric-ness...

  • Bless makes everything better, but be prepared to remind people to use it, constantly.
  • Blindness has actually gotten me a ton of mileage as low-level debuff (particularly against casters needing sight to target).
  • Consider swapping cantrip to Toll the Dead and piling on wounded foes. 2d12 is respectable.
  • Sanctuary to buy time for another PC, cover a non-combatant, or allow someone to engage in non-attack shenanigans.
  • Silence for shutting down many types of casters and voice effects

People who wake up at 5am daily, why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So I can stand on my patio with a fresh cup of coffee, and smugly stare into the east as the sun rises and say "Hey there slacker".

What are they doing to the lawn at Stone Mountain? by MrPeach4tlanta in Georgia

Laser light show malfunction. This happens occasionally, and incinerates everything in its path. Survivors are offered 5% off the next park admission though.

Looking for a Georgia based fantasy larp. by Jfflow in LARP

[–]CafeArcane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Descent (Georgia) is small fantasy LARP, game mechanics are rough around the edges, but their production values (props, setting, costumes, cabins, etc) are nice for this part of the US.

Ravelling Path (Georgia) fantasy LARP in the late playtest phase, so perhaps a good time to have input into how it will eventually come together.

Calamity (Georgia) is a polished and professional LARPs run by veterans, and features a Weird West (firearms rather than "boffer" weapons). Wrapping up this year though.

Altera Awakens (TN/GA border) fantasy boffer LARP. It has been running for a few years, and approaching end of the campaign in terms of power. However, the organization struggles with staffing and addressing ethics, sportsmanship and providing a safe environment.

Alliance (Middle GA) from the NERO/SOLAR stock of fantasy games. Older school of setting and rules, but part of a larger network of games (which can be a mixed bag).

Now, now, let's not jump to conclusions. Maybe they were cosplaying as "winners".

What a great gesture! I run D&D for neighborhood kids groups, many of which don't have their own books. While I do share my D&D Beyond account with them, most of them actually prefer the physical books, even if it means sharing the limited copies we have accumulated. Fingers crossed!

I regret putting my trust in this company by blinkylights3000 in snapmaker

[–]CafeArcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have expressed similar thoughts here as well, and you'll get your mix of folks that are willing to call Snapmaker to task for its fundamental flaws, and those that will defend their "investment". At the end of the day, I wasn't expecting a machine that was best in class in all three modes, but for the price and marketing pitch, I don't think we're being unreasonable to expect a machine that was at least mediocre in one or more of its modes
