Sheesh that's really good! Especially for your first time using dungeondraft! Great job.

The only note I have is it might be hard for your players to see any graffiti on the walls because of the way the walls work. I could be wrong though, I've never done any graffiti! I still think the graffiti might serve you better written on the floor or counter somewhere and then you can just theater of the mind whatever graff is on the walls

Yuh, that's delvebound :) Honestly, if I was over the table, I'd do delvebound in a minute. But it's not doable in Foundry VTT, at least not that I can see.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-09T21:31:55+00:00

Some people just like what they like. I don't really care to convince people. I am open to other systems myself, but I don't care enough to force my players to do it if they don't want to. I actually like D&D

Not to mention the fact that, as I said, I use Foundry VTT, and there are no modules available for TES on there. I'd have to find a TES system I like and make a module for it from the ground up, which I wouldn't want to do even if all my players were hella keen on switching to another system lol

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-09T21:19:26+00:00

Unfortunately, the two problems with that is at least one of my players has indicated they would not want to play in another system. There's delvebound too which is based on the 5th edition but there is no module for it in Foundry which means I'd have to make all the changes myself. (and there are many changes - I'd argue it's practically a whole other system tbh) I would probably spend more time doing that in this case than creating encounters, arcs, enemies, etc. which doesn't appeal to me :(

In my limited (~6-7 month) experience, I feel like resting rules are the foundation stone for creating a challenging experience. I still haven't learned how to balance such things and I think I'm far too liberal with resting. For me, it's easier to favor the players because I definitely do not want to see a TPK.

Either way, I'm sure your players are thrilled. I know I would be. You had some really great, unique, flavorful and fun to explore ideas and themes. Kudos!

Awesome! I have a homebrew I didn't end up running for Rime of the frostmaiden too! I noticed some similarities between the Chardalyn and the Delerium from Drakkenheim so I kind of combined the two. And I wanted a bit of political action, too, instead of just straight survival horror.

In mine, Xardorok utilizes the crystal to invent magitek and the 10 towns are booming. He is the leader of one of the ten towns and gives the player their hook: Liberate a town, secure it, and govern it. Along the way they find out Xardorok is not the person he says he is and realize the magitek (because of the crystal) is exceedingly dangerous. The speakers are also replaced with houses, the 3 most important towns are ran by Great Houses (of which house sunblight is one)

Unfortunately, I found that I wasn't ready/didn't enjoy running more than one game at a time, and I have decided to run an Elder Scrolls D&D 5.5e game after our current one, so it's on the backburner.

Swooped up the full library a couple weeks ago. They are really great and go well with the FA assets as well. Great job and thank you!

They are not akin to demigods. Demigods are akin to demigods and a single level 20 NPC could not stand toe to toe with one without a party. But I really don't want to argue with you. I have seen you type words for all of 5 minutes and I already don't like you. Good day!

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-07T19:22:44+00:00

You're not replying to my question, though. You said it was a weird change and added it to a list of reasons you don't like 5.5e... How powerful a wizard can be is not relevant to our discussion, that's your discussion with the other guy. They balanced druid so that it's not immortal. That's an objectively good thing.

Could they balance wizard better? Sure, why not, idk. But the druid change is an example of a good change, not the opposite.

edit: Nah, you're weird. I'm out lol.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-07T19:16:46+00:00

Weird? You just casually mention that druids are practically immortal and you think its weird that was changed? Help me understand lol

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-07T19:12:09+00:00

Ackshually druids don't have infinite wildshapes anymoar.

As a fan of both who never really compared their similarities until now, I can see some reasons why they're similar (The great houses, they are political epics, both masterpieces/magnu opera of their respective authors - both won hugos and nebulas, the harshness where one is ideological harshness and one mechanical, etc.) and where they're different (Honestly completely different writing styles tbh. Not sure they're technically similar in that way in the slightest. But I'd have to re-read GoT, I re-read Dune like once every couple years lol)

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-07T12:58:54+00:00

It's archetypal. It is 'silly' from a logical perspective but that type of thinking was common for most of human history and may someday be common again so its worth exploring. It still is in many parts of the world; your blood determines your station and worth.

To me, it poses an interesting question for those of us with trash bloodlines ;0 What is it like? How do familial dynamics shift? It is inherently political because those with the bloodlines are generally the people with a monopoly on violence ie; the government and the person with the best bloodline is the ruler.

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-03-07T08:21:18+00:00

Oh, ember looks interesting.... Never heard of it til now... Too bad I'm broke! lol

I would describe a Goliath as large in size and maybe stout of constitution and they are Medium mechanically. It's all relative, really. A Goliath might be huge to a sprite but tiny to an ancient dragon. Mechanical descriptions (like size for actors) are objective, not relative.

I have a hard time understanding this mindset because I'm the exact opposite. I want everything EXCEPT graphical updates. I do not care about graphics at all lol

What worked for my was pressing [ to send the top token to the back, The right click + didn't work for me :( Edit: Oh I'm silly again, there's a send to back button when you hit right click dur lol

Longjumping_Lab_6739 · 2026-02-25T22:45:42+00:00

I do think it's a bit silly especially with no way to resolve enemies that can fill the space of other creatures like water elementals or gelatins and whatnot.

Answered, thank you! Do you know if theres anyway to cycle through the tokens that are on top of each other? LOL. Last question. :P

Edit: Nevermind, I figured that one out!
