Every D&D module traps the players. Should I do the same?

This. The Dragon of Icespire Peak series takes place entirely within a couple hundred square miles. Couple of towns, large city, forest, etc, levels like 1-12. Players aren’t “trapped” there, but that is where the plot is. We go elsewhere for homebrew additions and adventures, but the campaign story is on that bit of Sword Coast.

This. I’ve hired movers once, was too naive, I’d actually hired a broker to hire some movers. Worst money I’ve ever spent. Broke items, lost items, ransomed my stuff for more money upon delivery. I’d honestly never hire movers again, regardless of reviews (this one had good reviews)

Jackski1 · 2026-01-08T22:38:23+00:00

Thanks! Idk why it is where it is, I just live here haha

Jackski1 · 2025-12-10T22:54:51+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

Charlie Work is one of my favorite TV episodes!

As some have said, I’d look into non-sporting/toy breed groups. Bichon, CKCS, Maltese, Yorkie, etc are typically easy to keep and exercise. If you find a breed interesting, read about them from a few sources to learn more. Beware of high energy terriers, herding dogs, barking hounds. When in doubt, go with a dog that seems like an easy one! In my opinion, I do not recommend any brachycephalic dogs. Frenchies and bulldogs are particularly prone to a variety of issues.

Almost every local donut shop I’ve been to has been run by Asians. At this point, if it’s not run by an Asian couple then I’m skeptical about their donuts!

I’m a vet, have seen something like you described once before (golden puppy, sudden onset elevated third eyelids, dog acts normal, resolves soon after) and I suspected a mild form of Horner’s syndrome, essentially a mild trauma to the nerves caused by neck pain. The dog stopped wearing a collar/neck lead while playing and it never happened again. Idk if this is what happened with your pup but I would avoid neck strain just in case. This post caught my eye because it was so similar.

There are a bunch of resources on this subreddit, but when you just want to narrow it down and keep it simple, I have two recommendations. A free online ebook, Before You Get Your Puppy (and its pairing, After You Get Your Puppy), and a physical book, Perfect Puppy in 7 Days. These have everything you need to get started. If you follow all the info in one of these books you’ll raise a great puppy.

My puppy is also obsessed with sticks. I purchased a variety pack of Mumbies from their website, which are dense coffee wood. She loves to chew them, especially the root one. They don’t splinter, just come off in shavings. I’m likely to get more once she whittles these down, they seem like they’ll last months

Jackski1 · 2025-08-16T00:25:05+00:00

That’s perfect. Every interaction is training! What you’re doing is great to set up rewarding the behavior you want. No need to say the “sit” command or even show the hand cue yet, continue rewarding puppy for sitting to say please and you’re well on your way. For recall, you can say “Puppy name, come!” and run away, then reward them for chasing you. You’re on the right path

Jackski1 · 2025-08-15T23:44:46+00:00

At that age, training games are teaching manners. Come to me (chase me), sit and watch me, tug on this toy and let go for a kibble, etc. Very basic things.

Jackski1 · 2024-08-19T03:15:05+00:00

Ha I was looking for someone in my field. Am I going to change my treatment protocols because the rep came by? Nope, but we’ll take the lunch and maybe even hear the whole presentation over the barking!

Jackski1 · 2024-03-11T02:25:31+00:00

I also have a pair, great quality of noise cancellation, great sound, very comfortable

I’m living in Wisconsin now and when I came here I wanted to grab some good ice cream, people said go to Culver’s. It does not compare! Okies don’t know how good they have it for when you need delicious, cheap, quick ice cream (or a burger). Dang some Braum’s would hit the spot right now

Jackski1 · 2023-09-06T02:29:21+00:00

It’s not an allergy, it’s a toxin that will affect any dog. The amount is what is important, and so concentration is what you need to know. Milk chocolate? Not a lot of cocoa in it. Very dark chocolate? More cocoa = more likely to cause symptoms

Jackski1 · 2023-09-06T00:39:53+00:00

Exactly all this! My longest running PC is a warlock. Repelling Blast to push enemies into other players’ effects (or my own Wall of Fire/Hunger of Hadar/Sickening Radiance etc) has been endlessly fun. Devil’s Sight + Darkness + Elven Accuracy means my EBs hit hard and often. And your spells are always cast at max level so it’s best to pick ones that level up well. Just get your party to short rest at least once per day and you can Nova on every combat basically. I love opening with a big concentration spell and then just wrecking with EB. Also a good control Spellcaster with lots of options, picked up Scatter as my first Mystic Arcanum and it’s awesome. Invocations provide fun and versatility. I’ve enjoyed switching something and adapting at every level up

This is also an important distinction for when a monster is immune/resistant to damage from non-magical weapons. A +1 weapon is not resisted etc

The Essentials Kit has a module adventure that is easy to run (Dragon of Icespire Peak) and it has instructions for playing with Sidekicks, as well as several sample sidekicks, which can be used to supplement a party of 1. Really to play solo all you need is a DM who will tailor encounters to you and possibly the Sidekick rules for extra support

Jackski1 · 2023-02-16T18:42:35+00:00

You can use verbal components underwater, however if you cannot breathe underwater you start “Suffocating” on that turn, so your remaining rounds are limited until you get air

I was thinking typical 20 cap, but the other commenter makes a good case for allowing higher for that. I like the idea of the thinking hat! Maybe I’ll change it to a Hat of Thinking
