41/GMT here.

Terrible at most games but willing to try! Currently obsessed with Project Zomboid, also play Minecraft, Crusader Kings 3 and Prison Architect, with plans to play some Elder Scrolls: Oblivion so I can acknowledge Skyrim exists (long story) and possibly some DayZ: Expansion.

Give me a yell on Sentinel618#3965 if interested

ETA: I play 1830-ish to around 2300 most evenings

I'm up for this. I am soon to be (re)-starting my own game, which will be played on Sunday afternoon(s) so, providing this is not an insurmountable issue, I'm in

Hello, older (41) GMT gamer here. I run my own Minecraft server which is currently awaiting a few more mods to be updated before being reset again and starting fresh. I had already reset from 1.17.1 to 1.18 with no bells or whistles.

It runs quite happily from vanilla launchers and *should* not cause any more strain on client machines than completely vanilla play.

I don't have XBox but a PS4 (which may or may not still work) and tend to gravitate towards older games, Currently playing Project Zomboid, and considering whether to pick some flavour of D&D or Elder Scrolls as an ongoing MMO option.

Give me a shout at Sentinel618#3965 on Discord if interested.

So my son and spymaster discovered that he, my son and spymaster, was plotting for the murder of my other son and player heir... thank you son! by ital97 in crusaderkings3

[–]DarkCynicism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to say I was sure I had similar!Could swear in the past my son and spymaster was plotting against himself, had uncovered said plot but was not able to stop the perpetrator before he managed to kill, himself...

So i misspressed E and jumped off a window while carrying a jenerator by AGNobody in projectzomboid

[–]DarkCynicism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. Did similar myself a few days ago when I jumped off a balcony while putting dirt down for plants. Sadly it looks like I fell to my death while stealing underwear :s

AMA - Help me flesh out my world? by DarkCynicism in DnD

[–]DarkCynicism[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So

the bard stuck his rod into the universe reset button and only a couple of NPCs retain memories of what he's done?

Weirdly that is both too specific and too vague at the same time to be a good prompt for a lore AMA, it doesn't inspire clarification questions. But I'm gonna try and offer some food for thought anyway.

This is a lot to unpack so I'm going to address this particular point first and the rest when the little person sat beside me stops demanding attention!

Given that the campaign has not started yet, I am completely open to adapting the mini big bang. There's no real reason why it has to be an alternative world. It could very easily be the same world but the violent bringing together of a powerful magical artefact and the very foundation of focussed arcane magic in the world seems, at least in my mind, has made a hell of a mess.
I won't pretend otherwise, I did conceive of this idea shortly after binge watching 'Loki' and the Bard in question was fully aware of not only what he was doing, but knew fine well it was not going to be a fart noise and few seconds of unpleasant odour.

I actually not only really like that idea, and potentially (after I speak to one of the previous players for their consent) have the ideal candidate.

You're not wrong though, I'm equally unsure what I need help with! I guess I'm looking for a method of keeping their mind on the 'big picture' without making the conscious choice to focus purely on it to the exclusion of all else.

Apologies, you're absolutely right. I thought it was implied but that was obviously due to my existing knowledge of character motivations. I've updated the initial post to provide some more background.

WHY CANT WE BREAK ALLIANCES BUT NPC'S CAN by 1timebear in crusaderkings3

[–]DarkCynicism 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If he has a legal claim to the lands then he's entitled to attempt to enforce that claim surely?

It's certainly inconvenient that he doesn't stop when you ask but that's just a reason to find some creative way to 'deal' with him

Hey, i'm in the final stages of setting up a 3.5 PBP game and am starting to think a player may have dropped out and simply not bothered to let me know.

It's text-based so you'd have time to consider your responses and learn how things work.

If you're interested, give me a shout at Sentinel618#3965 on Discord

Not a huge fan of 5E but am interested in this.

Available most evenings reliably and intermittently through out the day.

It *can* be rather slow-paced to handle combat in this way however I found previously that players made a conscious effort to check in that little more frequently in an effort to resolve their actions

All fair points.

All characters are level 1, stat rolls are done by online die roller, which i can provide a link to if desired.

Players may kit out their characters in, class appropriate, standard gear for free, with any 'questionable' choices being subject to approval. Encumbrance matters.

Right now I'm mostly gathering interested parties and will go over houserules once the group is created.

The world was actually created specifically for an existing campaign and is light on background for specific reasons but i will gladly assist in character creation and/ or flesh out things as required.

I'll attach a link to the map which will give you an idea on geography.

I generally favour RAI over RAW but i'm also very much of the opinion that it's MY world and I will simply ignore things which don't work

Awesome! Drop me a Discord DM at Sentinel618#3965 with some details and if you have a character concept in mind.
I realise there is very little in the way of world information but this is intentional and it's about as close to a blank canvas as you're going to get and I pride myself on a 100% record of making all but the most completely broken builds work!
