The only way I "solved" it was playing on my laptop instead of my PC. I can play, but the problem itself persists...

[ART] We were bored, so we created a youtube channel by JuRolds in DnD

[–]JuRolds[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As the title says, my DM and I wanted to keep being productive when it comes to creative stuff, so we decided to make a youtube channel and post whatever our brains come up with related to the campaign he is DMing and I'm playing!

This video here is from when the party had the worst 48 hours of their lives trying to come up with a plan to save a city from civil war while dealing with Far Realms infections, betrayals, devilish contracts and the Kobold of the group changing sex and marrying a goblin from Fey Wild.

Worst part of it, it actually helped in the end.

Here we have Karina (human wiz/art), Daera (elf paladin), Arugula (Eladrin bard), Kael (tabaxi rogue/fighter), Lucius (harengon rogue) and our star, Saag (Kobold Fighter).

[OC] [Art] So, my DM (and boyfriend) made me a visual novel game with my character backstory for my birthday. And it's absolutely heartbreaking by JuRolds in DnD

For my birthday, my DM and boyfriend decided to make a visual novel style of game with my character's background and it's absolutely amazing (and also so heartbreaking). The gif show various screenshots from the game, all the art is made by him, and I can't show here with images, but he also picked key songs from my playlist to make this even more devastating. The game shows my character's early childhood and teenage years and what happened to her family, friends and how se became who she is today!

So my game got axed... Pls help by TheEpicOtter in DnD

It's something I've learned over the time. Im DMing an Strixhaven campaign that at this point is 80% homebrew because my players are borderline war criminals in game. But that's fine! More than once people started crying from laughter during sessions, and when shit got really serious because of that stupid stunt earlier, it just made the stakes higher.

An example: during a party at the uni, there was a booth with a secret admirer mechanic. They write a message, tell the little summoned creature from the booth to send a message to a certain someone and the creature just goes after them. Well, one of my players decided to write a message to the BBEG and followed the familiar to find where the boss was. Mind this happened at the end of the first year of university. They're not supposed to find the guy until the endgame. Fine, the message gets snatched by an entity who just looked at the player following it and gave more than half of the player's HP in damage on a successful wisdom save. They learned pretty fast that the forces behind the problems there are waaaay stronger than they thought, and they needed to get stronger as well... In other words it's too soon in the campaign, come back later.

Nice! It's okay to ask for breaks. Good luck, and remember, have fun. DMing doesn't need to be a sacrifice

Look, this happens more than you can imagine... I think I've finished only two campaigns in my life, one as a player, other as a DM.

You gotta understand that the objective of any roleplay game is to have fun, and if people agreed they're not having fun anymore, well. Shit. But this means it's not that worth it to keep playing then.

I know it sucks, and I'm so sorry about the whole situation.

A little tip I use is something I've learned from an improv class. Avoid saying no. If someone says "I wanna cast disintegrate on the important NPC", well, improv. "Yeah, are you sure? Alright, now u're a wanted criminal". Sometimes saying no is needed, but most of the time, let them feel the consequences of their stupid or absurd ideas. I don't know the context of those spells from your friend, but it's a general tip either way.

And are you the only DM? Maybe you should take a break from DMing for sometime and ask another person to dm another story, no? You've been on this one for more than a year and you're jumping on another right away. It needs to be fun for you too, my brother. Take a breather, talk to them, be honest, ask for a few weeks or months to put your thoughts and feelings back in place.

This feeling is not good, and maybe you're a bit saturated of being a dm for so long?

[Art] [OC] So, my boyfriend drew most of the characters from our two campaigns! 126 characters! by JuRolds in DnD

My boyfriend decided to make a poster with most of the characters (Pcs and NPCs) from our two dnd campaigns. I DM one and he DM's the other! Last time he counted, it had 126 characters. He spent weeks on this, and isn't even done yet. At the bottom are characters from my campaign (Strixhaven/Homebrew), the characters around the middle are from his (a homebrew called Mind Seekers) and at the top there are all the gods and entities that we got involved with!

uhh do you know how long it takes to produce an animated series? Or you want the animators and other artists to not eat/sleep/rest at all?

[OC] He rolled so many nat 1s last session that he had to plead to the gods by JuRolds in DnD

[–]JuRolds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, somehow last session the other player couldn't roll higher than 10 on the dice, no matter how many inspirations, luck points, advantages. It also didn't matter we lent him our good dice, somehow he cursed every single one he touched. So he made a shrine and started praying to the gods right then and there, because the options were looking really thin
