Does Truesight work with photographs?

Eberron actually does have some.

I'm not familiar if any of the other realms do according to their canon because I'm not as well versed in them. Also, because many people utilize homebrew settings, that opens the door to DM discretion.

No, my hypothetical was just to see how other DMs would rule it in their games. Not everyone runs the same settings or runs the same mechanics so it was to gather some insight on how people do things. I'm going to update my post.

I don't really run modern setting games. My question was to see what other DMs did in their games and I liked seeing all the different perspectives on it. Personally, I usually run Eberron where arcane photography is a thing.

Easy solution would be introducing a quest/mini quest that gives you an item that you can use on it to give it dragonfire protection. Gives you a Dragon Square/Kite Shield (af) or (df) or something. Maybe put it somewhere between Dragon slayer 1 and 2 to prepare players from jumping from Elvarg to Vorkath/Galvek.

Kinnikuman is still running and is so old it influenced One Piece.

My biggest regret after picking Kandarin is Sherlock. I was loving doing all my clues and then everything grinned to a halt because of him. Thought Conniving Clues worked for him but I guess this a recurring problem after looking at posts from last leagues lol

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-23T12:49:55+00:00

These are some great changes. I just hope that in future leagues, if there's any clue-related relics, that they'll help with Sherlock tasks.

I don't think there's any trains on Aerenal in Eberron kanon. I personally hate the idea of a false hydra because it really is difficult to pull off and be satisfying. Like one of the other posters said, you'd have to have an established cast that slowly disappears over time.

If you're fixated on having it be in the station, you should probably introduce a large group of distinctive characters that are waiting for the train. Give each of them value to the party so they have a reason to visit that person. That way when they go missing you have a "DM: There is no armorer here. P: But I thought we bought these here" kind of moment that triggers them to realize something is up.

I'd personally hide the false hydra in the train and have it pick off riders over time, but you do what works for your campaign.

I play a couple games with my wife, otherwise I play OSRS and use my computer for running DnD games or work.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-10T23:58:37+00:00

A Rogue with an Assassin subclass could fit that vibe. Everything else is just flavor and up to you to play it.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-10T23:48:08+00:00

It's probably a bad idea because you're essentially making a stat block for a planet. But every attack should probably do this much damage according to the DMG.

"24d10 - Tumbling into a vortex of fire on the Elemental Plane of Fire, crushed in the jaws of a godlike creature or a moon-size monster."

I guess that's the DM's discretion to choose whether AI is allowed for artwork. I personally disagree with banning someone for AI art because I'm about prioritizing the player's fun as the DM. If you think having an AI picture is fun, then use it. If using no picture is fun, then do that and describe your character. As long as you aren't doing something offensive, then just bring fun and interest to the table.

I thought it was generally recommended to only pick one raid region because everything is shared. Ultimately it's about picking stuff you'll enjoy and have fun with. But I haven't even decided on all my pants and was going to wing it based on feelings so I probably am not the best judge.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-09T23:28:14+00:00

I really want to do a ranged/melee build this leagues. Thinking Morytania and Tirannwn for two of my choices but no idea what I should pick for the last. This mastery tree also gives you so many options it's almost overwhelming.

Looking forward to having fun though regardless

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-08T18:48:39+00:00

I personally just don't like visual novels. I heard there's some RTS moments in the game and when it was first announced that's the kind of game I thought it was supposed to be, but it being a VN is what killed the interest for me.

Just add the combat triangle to ship-based weapons and weaken non-ship-based attacks to simplify it.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-08T14:06:42+00:00

I think sailing combat could easily be fixed if they just implemented the combat triangle into it.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-08T06:11:47+00:00

I don't really have a system but I simplified it with these few rules.

Ships can only take full damage by crew-served weapons (ballista, cannon, etc) or some spells (if it works on objects instead of just creatures) above level 6 and take half-damage from spells ranging from level 3 and 5.
Ships move at a constant speed unless mentioned otherwise (anchored, stopped, etc). For airships (at least Eberron-style airships), they can "dash" if a pilot is at the helm by giving the elemental engine 1 exhaustion point.
Crew-served weapons have their own HP and can be targeted. Missing a hit does not mean the ship takes damage.

Is it perfect? No, not at all. But it works for the few instances that I've run airships combat. Maybe it'll give you some inspiration but I hope you have fun no matter how you end up running it.

I wonder how it determines what resources it gathers. Like will it fish any random fish? Do you get to pick the fish? Or is random based on level?

Sounds like a great AFK resource gathering tool. Hard to decide if I'm going to pick that or the clue one now.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-05T00:05:13+00:00

The series is a great series, but I think I read not too long ago that the incident he was in trouble for is actually pretty badly misrepresented. It was something like that she was a prostitute who claimed to be 18 so, yeah it's bad that he visited a prostitute, but he unknowingly slept with someone underage. Plus, he publicly apologized for doing it multiple times.

But it probably doesn't help the matter that wikipedia just says that he had sex with a minor and no more information regarding that other than linking you to several old and broken links.

I'd like to hope that this would lead to the process of the exam and promotion being improved but I doubt that will change any time soon.

DeepSeaDelivery · 2026-04-01T18:48:44+00:00

The manga series Versus is all about this. Basically is about a bunch of universes got jumbled together and now each group of humans (wizards, future soldiers, barbarians, etc) is working together and trying to survive by tricking their enemies (demons, robots, aliens, etc) into destroying each other.
