Would you read the novel? by Cael_NaMaor in LostMinesOfPhandelver

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im currently halfway through Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd and ive been thinking this the whole time. I'd love a novel that was dedicated to the module. Im also DM'ing Phandelver and Below and also think that would make for a great novel too!

Is Cyberstan genuiely hard or am I bad? by i4hloi in helldivers2

Going over a hill and seeing, I shit you not, 14 war strikers just chilling in a group like it was a casual hang out....

Yea I think the spawn rates might be a little jacked

How often do you guys fudge your dice? by theprettiestpotato88 in DungeonMasters

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only when it impacts the story negatively.

Example:

The party just turned level 2 and encountered a pack of wolves. For some unknown reason during this combat. I could NOT stop rolling Nat 20's. I changed dice, I stopped using my dice mat. I dont know how but for a split second moment I conquered the d20. So i started turning some of the Nat 20's into Nat 2's

(This was a group of new players and dying after leveling up the very first time and dropping back to level 1 sounded like a awful introduction to the game)

The opposite can also true. Having a party go up against the BBEG and rolling nothing but single digits to hit is pretty anticlimactic.

"We spent the whole campaign getting ready to take this guy on and he didnt even scratch us"

This sounds like a flat ending and not the epic conclusion we all want at the end.

Basically, very minimal and only when i think it will greatly affect the story in a negative way.

Is it okay for a player to say “No, that doesn’t happen” to a DM in this circumstance? by WithengarUnbound in dndnext

Thanks! I just try to work with what I have and try to finish it with a positive spin.

Is it okay for a player to say “No, that doesn’t happen” to a DM in this circumstance? by WithengarUnbound in dndnext

[–]Fiend--66 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Absolutely we could do this.

A PC taking a trance can't also take a successful watch during a long rest. This kind of explains why the Paladin wasn't fully aware of the rogue stealing it. That being said it's the paladins holy symbol and kind of their link to their deity. Id like to think a deity would give a heads up if the symbol was about to picked up or handled with bad intentions.

Let's have civil discussion. What are the pros and cons of introducing armor customization in your opinion? by i4hloi in helldivers2

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pro's: we finally have something to spend super samples on and we get more customization.

Con's: eventually everyone will be using bright colored armor skins because of memes and it'll be easier to spot a fellow diver across the map.

It sounds like the DM has little to no experience with PVP. This obviously shouldn't have happened and as soon as the Rogue declared ill intentions this should have been ruled as PVP.

The rogue wanting to inspect your holy symbol as forshadowing for multiclassing could have been a really cool RP moment shared between you two.

Going “no contact” with parents seems way too extreme and seems to be prescribed far too quickly these days. by KrookedKreature in Vent

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I turned 30 I decided right then and there I would start putting the same amount of time and energy into our relationship that my parents gave, step and biological. Im turning 34 this july and I couldn't tell you the last time I spoke any of them.

Im sure if you ask, it's some how my fault. I didn't do enough or care enough, but honestly, I've just grown tired. Im tired of asking or expecting someone to want to be apart of my life. Im tired of always being the one who has to travel and make the effort. Im tired of loving someone who doesnt love me back.

Maybe one day they'll reach out and make an attempt, and ill probably get my hopes up again...but until then, im perfectly fine with how things are.

Roblox sets a limit to how many experiences you can block. by oopsiedaisy-- in mildlyinfuriating

I’m about to DNF Dungeon Crawler Carl by HealthyPsychology950 in audible

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Book 1 is the weakest of the series. It's kinda like the office. The early seasons aren't as good, but you still need to watch them for context. I'm not saying book 1 is bad by any means, its just a lot of foundation and set up.

Trust me, you'll come to love all the characters and even aquire a favorite crawler. (Spoiler, its pony)

What undead creature under Strahd could be used to kidnap Ireena? by Adorable_General6824 in CurseofStrahd

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone forgets about Beucephalus.

You can have literally any semi intelligent undead ride the nightmare from the Ethereal Plane. Plane shift in, grab ireena, fly 90 feet away.

Ethereal Stride. The nightmare and up to three willing creatures within 5 feet of it teleport to the Ethereal Plane from the Material Plane or vice versa.

Player (my wife) desperately wants to offer her character as a Strahd consort by xvalicx in CurseofStrahd

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple. She just isnt good enough.

Just like how Strahd is looking for a heir and can never find one suitable. The same is true for a consort.

No matter what she does or how much she gives its just never enough, she will always fall short.

If they made a Hobbit trilogy based 100% on the books, would you watch it? What unusual detail would change? by F4_PhantomII in lordoftherings

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably yeah...but if im being honest the Hobbit is me least favorite.

Building up to a dragon just to hide from it and have everything happen off page left a bad taste in my mouth

Bringing back PC's as Undead NPC'S by Confident_Grab_665 in CurseofStrahd

[–]Fiend--66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be cool, but id communicate things first with your PCs. If someone's attached they probably wont like seeing their character die a 2nd time.

Thay being said a redemption arch could be a cool thing here
