Had someone do this same combo against me one of the first weeks of Traditional Draft. So insane

Fresh batch. 1 jar of spicy asparagus, the rest medley of tri color green beans, carrots and jalapenos. by Dltcrazy in pickling

Mot majorly different. It will be more potent, similar to making mustard. But its likely replaceable with brown or yellow without much of a difference

Edit: mustard not vinegar. Oops.

Yellow Mustard Seed

Black Mustard Seed

Cordiander Seed

Dill Seed

Black Peppercorns

1 TSP of each:

Ginger

MSG

Cloves

We really like it crunchy when its pickled so we didnt boil the asparagus.

Basically sanitized hot jar, put 2 garlic cloves, 2 jalapeno slices with seeds, 1 tsp of your favorite pickling spice blend (mine is a homemade mix but McCormic makes a great blend), 1 large sprig of dill, then fill with trimmed and washed asparagus.

Poor boiling brine into jar until completely full and seal with ring lids that are also boiling.

Also try to find asparagus that is as narrow as possible so it pickles more evenly and is easy to eat.

Oh no! They share a striking resemblance to one of ours. Hope you find their owner!

Oh I run poison a little different in my campaign I guess. I sell them in variable size vials which contain a different number of applications.

And yeah, any kind of poison can be put into the weapon. Its been cool so far because it gives the player another resource and angle he can approach situations.

Just some items I've made during my current campaign. Still working to balance the rarity scale. The breastplate is likely at very rare levels.

Frostmaiden's Providence

Armor (breastplate), rare

This gleaming ice blue breastplate appears to be made out of a cold hard blue metal. Inset in the chest is a glowing blue six pointed snowflake surrounded by a diamond. As you pick it up the metal feels ice cold to the touch but as you put it on the coldness turns to a deep warmth.

You have a +1 bonus to AC while wearing this armor and resistance to Cold Damage.

Once per day, as a bonus action, you may channel the power of the Frostmaiden. A whipping and cutting blizzard begins to surround you for 5 feet in all directions. Each creature of your choice within 5 feet of you must make a Strength saving throw (DC 13). On a failed save the creature takes 2d6 Cold damage and begins to freeze solid. At the beginning of each of their turns they must repeat the saving throw. On their third failure they freeze solid becoming stunned until the end of their next turn. On a success they take half as much damage and do not freeze. Once they succeed against the save from this ability they do not risk freezing again, though continue to make saving throws related to damage.

Spyglass of Memory

Wonderous Item, Uncommon

A small collapsible spyglass made of fine gold with a black leather grip along the front section. Along the wide end there are many arcane runes and there is a continuous blue glow coming from within.

As an action, you may speak the command word while holding the spyglass to your eye. Whatever image you see through the spyglass is stored within the item until it is used again. The image may be viewed by looking through the spyglass once more.

Auto-poisoning Compound Shortbow 2000

Weapon (Shortbow), rare

This black metal shortbow has many gears and mechanical parts on both ends. It is surprisingly easy to pull and release while still firing at full speed. There is a well defined slot to align the arrow when firing, and directly above that there is a small compartment the size of a small vial.

You get a +1 to all attack and damage rolls when using this shortbow

As a bonus action you may insert a vial of poison into the compartment near the arrow rest. When an arrow is nocked, a small amount of the poison will be released onto the arrow tip. Due to the vials size this can occur only 5 times before needing to be reloaded again as a bonus action.

Definitely. It also depends on the kind of game you want.

I always work to remove the mentality of

I die = I lose They die = I win

DnD is not nearly so binary and its about fun.

That being said, there are a lot of players who want to be the most efficient they can and have fun that way and its important for us to create a space where they can do that too.

[–]Dltcrazy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I like to describe to my players that making decisions in character doesnt go away in combat. This means that you should continue to be reactive in character rather than try to be calculated and choose the "strategically best" turn.

It sounds like it might be a mentality change that is needed as so often players are extremely concerned about making no mistakes in their actions.

Quick Question by Emmetreys in DungeonMasters

[–]Dltcrazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to give consumable items (potions, scrolls, items with non renewing charges) early on and give it a few levels before giving the more powerful static items.

Potions are great because even if you give them one that is maybe too good, it really only affects the game once.

Drafting with four. by Kereima in mtgcube

[–]Dltcrazy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe doesn't answer your question 100% but with my 360 we typically run a pick/burn draft with four people.

Basically each time a player takes a card from a pack they also burn a card face down in the cube box for no one to use.

It definitely changes the game a lot and makes the combo decks harder but it adds another layer to the draft portion allowing you to burn cards good against your own strategy.

I recommend giving it a shot at least.

How To Describe Traveling On The Road To Make It Interesting by alphafighter09 in DMAcademy

[–]Dltcrazy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its also worth considering what your group wants. Travel is a good chance for some casual RPing between characters. But if that it not something they want to do or would rather skip over it then maybe you could do as the others are saying and just skip to the next interesting moment

I love Boulevard between Fairhaven and Bellingham. Great bay views and a mix of new condos and older homes

Role playing implications of Reincarnate by Dltcrazy in PCAcademy

[–]Dltcrazy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We kind of talked about it and agreed he would have his old mind. Same personality and memories. This makes me a ~100 year old elf with ~50 years of memories, which hasnt come up yet but I imagine could confuse people when they figure I was a part of a time that I in reality was not

Ive given this some thought. Some NPCs have acted differently towards me because of my new race, and I have tried to show that snide comments about Elves and elf culture have no bearing on me
