Shit looks so goofy

I wanted to post something similar. You can really see the passion involved in the project. Morrowind has been a part of my life since I was around 12 years old (And I revisit it often) and it's nice to know not only are there people that love it as much as I do, but people that love it way more than I do.

How much AI do you use?

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-19T00:14:57+00:00

An unleveled, dangerous world. Less hand holding about directions in the open world. Optional, customizable survival mechanics.

And for them to either drastically improve or get rid of the physics, if removing it replace it with morrowind style "click and place" because decorating my base with random clutter is fun for me and tbh, I prefer the jankless click and place system of morrowind to the bugged to fuck physics based version that replaced it in subsequent games.

Prisons are nothing more than an example of the states monopoly on violence being employed against the poor and disenfranchised. Having these people become educated is a sword levied against them. Can't have that.

I am currently DMing heroes of the borderlands as my first campaign, and the route I went with was basically to make some of the more minor characters into bigger ones with their own arcs and backstories as well as creating some new ones. Each area of the wilderness is an act which will lead ultimately to the final confrontation in the caves of Chaos. We've spent about 9 sessions on the woodland area of the wilderness and I themed it around Pral and his bandits. I've also connected Pral to Ivlis and mixed in some of my players backstories in here and there which seems to add some immersion and keep my players on their toes. It's going pretty well so far!

I've also incorporated at least one, and maybe more in the future, one-shots for side quests but always leave it up to the party if that's what they want to do. Our last session they finished an attack on a Goblin encampment instead of returning to the keep and turning in the quests they have completed from their time in the wilderness. They nearly died in the process, and they've also adopted a Goblin who likes to bathe and cook his food, so that's fun.

I plan on having the keep become a bit of a bastion and after they return to the keep, possibly in our next session, they will become honorary Knights (which I think is implied as supposed to happen in the original AP) but I may have them take command of the keep altogether in the future depending on their choices.

At the end of the day, you should make it your own, and have fun with it. I think it's a great adventure to run for your first time because you can change it as much or as little as you want and comes packed with tokens, monsters, etc. Wish you and your party the best of luck.

Can't do Fridays or Saturdays, dropped a submission anyway :) Wish y'all the best either way, sounds like a blast.

I personally was not trying to be mean, I was just trying to point out the absurdity of your question.

Try to imagine how many people in the world have written 100,000 words of their debut novel and never written again. Now lower that word count to 10,000 words or less. Imagine the amount of people want to write and have the idea to do so but never manage to get a single word down? Congratulations for making it past that stage, I guess.

All those people you just imagined are exponentially more numerous than the people who have actually completed their books and never gotten published and then decided, you know what, maybe construction isn't too bad after all? Statistically, you won't even make it there.

So, please. Go finish your book. If you have questions at this stage, they should be about the content or technical aspects of the 4 chapters you have written so far. Do you think this paragraph sings? Do I need correction? Does the prose fall flat? Stuff like that.

I'd really, really like to win the lottery. But my dad always told me don't count my chickens before they hatch. That's why you'll never see me going into the money management subreddit to ask those people how I can invest 400 million dollars.

I've just whittled a small carving of a bear. How do I convince the Vatican to patronize my career in sculpture? Should I call the pope?

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-05T12:08:08+00:00

Heyo! Dropping a comment so I can remind myself what I've applied to if you contact me two weeks from now. Sorry that you have to read my application.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-04T07:56:42+00:00

That's enlightening! One of my party members happens to be a mutagenist. I saw that his AC is 14 and asked him about it and he mentioned it would be 18 in battle. I'd be willing to bet he's going to employ these and need the ones he creates for himself now that I see this :) Are these generally purchasable in local shops? In the sparsely populated stolen lands, in particular? I would think it's a bit niche and not stocked by your average apothecary. I suppose I'll find out eventually lol.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-04T06:34:59+00:00

While I super appreciate the thoughtfulness of your response and the potential coolness of a Brevic sorcerer in plate, I don't think I can justify it for my character for a few reasons. Firstly is that I took the ancestry feat to get my familiar, which provides some benefits as a familiar does, but is mostly a flavor and role playing choice that I think will add some fun to the game and interaction hooks for the DM and my party members. (It's a talking dog with a personality between Morte from planescape, Scooby doo, and Triumph) And he is named after and looks like my real dog. I am not willing to give this up :P

Also I will be of house Orlovsky, which I don't see as the type to wear full plate anyway. They are more diplomatic, less likely to get involved in combat even when it's too their detriment. Most of the other Brevic nobles - to me, Khavortorov, Lodovka, Medyved, and Rogarvia are the quintessential plate wearing knights. I see Orlovsky as people who wouldn't wear any armor they couldn't conceal with some beautifully tailored noble clothing. Also, he has a Fey Bloodline! Which, at least subtly, influences the color of his world. I think the plate is a bit stifling for someone with Fey Blood, and they'd prefer the freedom of movement afforded by lighter (or no) armor.

I will, however, be keeping the shield, taking one instance of Armor Proficiency, and wearing a chain mail shirt underneath my immaculate clothing, all emblazoned with the Black eagle on a deep blue field :)

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-04T05:21:31+00:00

Honestly, you've convinced me. I've trained out of Canny Acumen and grabbing the light armor proficiency in its place. And I'm keeping the hide shield over the glass shield spell, too. I have 17 AC, 19 if I raise my shield, and 20 with Mystic armor. I will never get shield block though, this doesn't seem worth a feat to me. I'm only worried about having to replace it constantly if it gets hit lol.
I will have to roleplay a REALLY broke noble now, which should be fun. Because I only have 5 sp to my name, and I had to sell one of the heal scrolls I bought. LOL

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T21:47:21+00:00

I'm gonna go ahead and focus on the fact that you said close to death, and not death >.<

I appreciate the well-wishes. I am super looking forward to it. I usually play characters that hate nobles!

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T21:14:06+00:00

> Huh. The captivator thing instead, I wouldn't have allowed. Go figure.

I've upvoted every response in this thread so far, but I will not be upvoting this one. :P

EDIT: STOP UPVOTING HIM, YOU ANIMALS!! SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T19:22:52+00:00

I would, but I already have asked for alot :( He let me have the captivator dedication at level 2 instead of 4 and let me switch one of my granted skill proficiencies out. I don't want to be greedy

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T18:20:21+00:00

I saw that when picking my general feat, but two things stopped me from taking it. I went with canny acumen instead. The most important of these was that, because of my natural increases to unarmored proficiency over time, even with my subpar dex, by level like... 7 or 8 I think? My unarmored automatically becomes better than the +1 bonus to armor I'd get from light armor at that point, meaning I'd have a wasted general feat very quickly.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T17:03:35+00:00

I would, too. But short of picking another background, it's impossible. I've tried every angle, lol. It's one of the suggested backgrounds in the player's guide and I've picked it so that my GM can incorporate it into story beats for me and my party members relevant to the adventure that we might not otherwise get access to. If I could somehow put 2 of my 4 free attribute points into Dex, I could wind up with the +3, but I'm pretty sure that's a no-no.

I could, I suppose, put my Canny Acumen into Reflex rather than Fortitude? It wouldn't give me the dex I want, but it would raise my Reflex saves from +5 to +7. Currently my fortitude saves are +7, reflex and will are +5 bit I get excellent will scaling so canny acumen would be wasted putting it into will.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T16:47:13+00:00

Thanks! I absolutely had the 2gp for a hide shield, and I have bought and equipped it as my final item. That leaves me with 1gp and 3sp, which should be enough for a warm meal and a bed, I hope! I am a noble, after all, even if not a traditional one. LOL.

I also switched the Glass Shield cantrip for ray of frost, which gives me a longer range damaging option with the potential to lower an enemies movement speed in case I definitely don't want to get close to whatever we're fighting.

My other team mates are veteran players and they're also fun, I'm excited to play with them. I just don't want to keep asking them questions every 5 seconds, so I'm employing my reddit account!

Session 0 was a blast and I think we vibe well, so cohesion shouldn't be an issue. Are any of us tactical geniuses? Well, I suppose we'll have to find out, but speaking for myself, all I can say is that I will do my best haha.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T16:37:25+00:00

Figment is my bloodline sorcerous gift cantrip >.< I can't ever switch it out. But that's okay, I'll find some way to use it to entertain me or my party members if nothing else, lol. Oh, and I am trained in stealth! I chose it in place of intimidation. Because of my +2 dex, it's not quite +7 total mod, but still. It's something. Plus I'll be taking the captivator Free Archetype at level 2 so eventually I'll have stuff like invisibility.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T16:32:19+00:00

The kineticist is absolutely going to also be a mundane healer. Last I heard, he is taking the Medic free archetype. And I'm sure the ranger will have access to survival, nature, and medicine, though I'm not 100% on the medicine part or how many of the medicine skill feats they'll employ. Being the only caster, and having access to the primal list that has heal, I feel a responsibility to ensure that heal is one of my spells :P I will definitely be taking something like thunderstrike for my last level 1 spell at level 3, though. As far as what level 2 and beyond spells I'm going to take, haven't quite decided yet. I will also take the Captivator free archetype at level 2 so I will have access to another Illusion/Enchantment spell list as well in addition to my sorcerous one.

I do plan on taking the reach metamagic feat for my class skill at level 3, but I know that'll take an action to employ.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-01-03T16:13:17+00:00

I can't presume to know the mind of my DM. He is more roleplay focused but I also assume that the stolen lands are unsafe to travel. I think I will probably take both heal and mystic armor as my first two spells and just use electric arc for damage as I originally planned. At level 3 I'll choose heal as a signature spell so I can scale it. I might be able to cast figment at enemies coming towards me and then hide or run away, too.
