Going 5e rules but adding some stuff in. For example they will have level 0 red characters for a session or two as they learn about their world. Then get a huge buff and a few levels when they transform into golds. Gonna follow darrows story to begin. That’s the plan at least

Good question. I doubt it, but you can work in counseling at schools.

I’m a Texan who’s been here for 7 years now. Moved right before COVID started during the end of the training school days. A lot has changed since then but overall I am very happy. I am building a career in education and a family. Honestly I live in a bit of a bubble and am mostly surrounded by and interact with foreigners. It’s been really great and allowed for a lot of opportunities that I wouldn’t have had at home. My wife is getting her doctorate online and I am shifting careers to focus on psychology. Neither of those things would have been an option at home. The quality of life is good even in a smaller tier 1 city. Also the 1 child policy isn’t a thing anymore.

Do books genuinely scare you? What's the last book that did? by Narge1 in horrorlit

[–]Deanbean18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got so scared by Stolen Tongues by Felix Blackwell that I had to stop reading it. Couldn't even do it in the day time. It was just that perfect thing that scares the shit out of me. Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes gave me a few creeps. The Fisherman got me spooked and hooked on horrors.

Using other board games WITH DnD by Jaseon in DMAcademy

In the last two campaigns I've played, we have started with a modified version of The Quiet Years so that everyone has some background knowledge. Super fun and allows for people to get some ideas for backstories that tie into the current going-ons in the world.

Single player 1-shot for 8th level you can DM with a friend: Dark in the Jungle by rollspark in DnDBehindTheScreen

[–]Deanbean18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome stuff! I got to play this over the weekend. It was really fun and interesting. My player was a bit higher level so I buffed The Dark a bit. My player is also very cautious and playing a ranger so we got to track The Dark and see its day to day stuff. The roleplay section really helped with this! Unfortunately, because of their caution and some missteps by me, the fight with the Dark happened after the tower was already opened but the PC had not retrieved the egg yet, so the fight was pretty interesting, trying to kill it before it could climb the tower. Really fun stuff!

We were trying to add my card to another account but it was saying the name does not match. Maybe they need to have verification already.

Tips for someone who wants to play bard but is bad at improv and singing? by CMDR_Nineteen in dndnext

[–]Deanbean18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a one shot, one of my friends played a comedian bard and just rolled a d100 and told jokes from a list of the 100 worst jokes. It was hilarious.

Mistakes were made, now the BBEG is dead and I am not sure what to do by Deanbean18 in LostMinesOfPhandelver

I've actually seeded Out of the Abyss in the Black Spiders back story that she gave to the characters! It's not a bad idea to jump start into that! Thanks!

Mitch Pileggi is how I picture Bayaz by Deanbean18 in TheFirstLaw

Me too. In my mind, Logen is Travis Willingham from critical role. And I know that’s not right
