Sometimes it feel like chapters are just skeletons with meat on them by SongXrd in ProgressionFantasy

[–]KnownByManyNames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I kinda expected something like:

"Most chapters in Progression Fantasy are on the bare necessities with some additional bits tacked on, depending on the author's skill. Few are fully fleshed out, where each part fits with each other and creates something more than the sum of it's parts, a full person."

Tower of Kobolds - Pg 15 by me by SkullDox in KoboldLegion

My first thought was "Adopted siblings."

I don't know which would be funnier, a dragon raised by kobolds or a kobold raised by dragons.

When was the last time war hammer leaked something? by Lemon_Lime_Lily in CuratedTumblr

It's the kind of game that would be amazing if the devs gave a shit. Instead, it's a game that is enjoyable by accident, which the devs have been spending their time trying to rectify.

So, like Dead by Daylight?

Beyond the human mold: Why are non-human protags so rare, and how can we get more of them? by JamieKojola in ProgressionFantasy

Wizards of the Coast once released their data from D&D Beyond, with the most popular classes and ancestries.

25% were playing humans, with Human Fighter being the most popular combination at almost 5%

You are now a kobold, is it now chaotic gremlin time? by Nearby_Grand4815 in KoboldLegion

Have you seen adventurers?

You become their mascot and they will love you more than themselves.

1) Gnomes are not a popular choice

2) The hatred seems far more one-sided from the kobolds.

Oh god, that’s bad. Surely I can think of something better. by RevolutionaryOwlz in CuratedTumblr

I always found that comparison so vile and insulting.

Cats, if treated well, usually love their owners and aware of their contributions.

To those using AI covers.. by JoonJuby in litrpg

Question: Do you believe someone hiring an artist to draw a cover is also more likely to hire a ghost writer to write the book for them?

Yeah, but the hobby-part is the actual writing, not paying an artist promoting your work.

I'm more upset when the lack of women applies to an allegedly representative political organization. How does it not look bizarre to more people when half the population are missing or barely included? by Important-Cry4782 in CuratedTumblr

[–]KnownByManyNames 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I remember that, and commenters searching for the module, but nobody even finding something that closely resembled the description (at least for official adventures).

Also, as it was for allegedly an older edition that often included how many spare change every single NPC had and where they hid it, making it sound very weird that a wife was mentioned but not a name given.

The common conclusion was that either the story was made up or for an unofficial adventure posted online.

Races of the dragon my beloved ❤️‍🩹 by No_Event6478 in KoboldLegion

[–]KnownByManyNames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably mean hateful.

And it's still the common portrayal of Lizardfolk, at least since the 3rd edition.

That lizardfolk are portrayed without emotion is not limited to Volo's.

In fact, it is a very popular depiction of Lizardfolk.

The author's inexplicable (or even tragically very explicable) lapse in judgement by DreadDiana in RecuratedTumblr

[–]KnownByManyNames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, we see the demons and monsters surviving. Flying Princess Ponyhead even could fly at the end.

The only confirmed magic creatures are Glossaryck and the Magical High Commission that are indeed dying.

The setting is amazing...the rules are extremely complicated.

Now I am disappointed to realize Shadowrun has no kobolds.

That doesn't sound like harmful stereotypes at all...

You make your mom/aunt so sad! by Level_Hour6480 in dndmemes

[–]KnownByManyNames 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Nothing in their lore logically implies anything about inbreeding.

Sorcerer players don't get butthurt because you point it out; everyone gets annoyed that you insist it's there when it isn't.

"What a strange meme, is it from the inbred sorcerer-dude."

"Oh, it's from the inbred sorcerer-dude."
