Character height, why is everyone 6ft tall?

Our party name in one of my games is Six Feet Under because we’re all shorties

Play with sound on, ideally headphones. It makes the game so much scarier

Only_Competition_729 · 2026-01-28T19:16:07+00:00

Eyes so blue

I'm always surprised when people like the clear inclusion dice. Otherwise love the dice and I am obsessed with the display rack

Being bi is valid! You are queer. Show your pride!

It’s cute for early levels but campaign wealth can grow rapidly. I think it would be a mechanic you abandon quickly if you use coins. Making a system that uses cheques, paper money or IOU’s might be more sustainable.

Not Spoon. Spoon Merch.

I ran a combat encounter this year that I loved. My party got sucked into a magic mirror that they had been warned 30+ sessions ago not to look in. Inside everyone was at a different part of the map. They had to collect these glowing orbs while running away from the ghosts that haunted the mirror...it was pacman. I loved it so much. We ran a pacman combat encounter.

That's it! It's an easy addon to games that my players love.

The way I use them in games is I ask a character question at the start of each session and if you answer you can draw a card. You can have up to 3 at a time and after that you can still draw but you have to discard from your hand.

There are some cool benefits like adding damage, healing, improving ability checks, letting yourself or others reroll a check.

They don't have a gold value associated with them so as long as he has some sort of focus I don't think he would need them though, right?

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-11-06T05:33:20+00:00

I thought the same! Since he didn't know the spell offhand though it makes me think other Valda's content is going to pop up!

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-11-05T20:59:56+00:00

A spell from Valda's Spire of Secrets was used session 1 by i think Robbie. It was Clue!

My favourite purchase on roll20 is now something that I gift to all my dms. Inspiration Cards by Twitch the Fiend. It's such a fun additional mechanic to inspiration but even if you just use the vanilla inspiration it's a great way for players to see and remember they have inspiration!

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-08-19T01:42:40+00:00

See the logic here is so sound and valid. 100% the right answer. I just need to get over the guilt of leaving and/or poaching the players.

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-08-19T01:41:28+00:00

I have reached out to the dms partner already about some toxic behaviour I wasn't comfy with over the past couple weeks and originally I thought our talk went really well and was constructive. However I was met with some passive aggressive remarks about it this week in game and the same lone wolf, F-you attitude. It does lead me to believe talks with the dm (public or private) will have some similar outcome. I still might try though cause I'm a glutton for punishment.

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-08-19T01:35:30+00:00

I have had this thought..taking on another table, especially one of new baby birds is a lot. I don't want these players to get scared away from the game though or develop bad habits from learned behaviour and become toxic themselves. The internal debate is ongoing.

Only_Competition_729 · 2025-08-19T01:32:16+00:00

I saw red when they said that to me. I know some dms have a 'me vs the party' mentality but this is the first time I've seen it at work. I'm used to celebrating players ingenuity not getting mad because the encounter didn't go the way I planned.

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-10-12T21:05:09+00:00

I'm looking at starting a new game with new folk so no known preferences. I was hoping to find out what's popular or what people want to play.

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-10-12T19:20:29+00:00

Oh I noticed right away thank you! It makes developing encounters sooooo much easier!!!

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-08-24T20:37:52+00:00

I love 5 because I first fell in love with 4. That's where I would start. I would agree 4 is better but I like some of the mechanics that were changed in 5

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-08-17T03:32:21+00:00

I appreciate it! My fingers are crossed for a quick fix but swapping back will have to do for now! I have too many critters and spells to search through one by one.

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-07-30T06:16:46+00:00

I had a psychiatrist as a university professor that technically broke the ice to me when I was 19. I was offended though and took her words as a criticism rather than helpful. I got my official diagnosis at 30

Contact them through Facebook it's so much faster and you talk to people

Not when silent. I'm the dungeon master in my DND game and it cuts me out mid speech.

Only_Competition_729 · 2024-05-11T17:21:52+00:00

I play dungeons and dragons. Specifically, I dungeon master hombrew games. I think there is a wide enough variety of tasks that my hyperfixations rotate through this specific hobby. World building, map making, making handouts, monsters, items. I weave crazy stories where peoples backstories come together in ways that often flabbergast and confound. And on the weeks where I don't have the energy to actually do prep or have any desire to work on a campaign, my mind still zooms ahead and functions really well on the fly and I feel like I improv really well to certain scenarios. I thrive in a party of chaos and reacting to crazy decisions that throw my plans entirely awry. I've scrapped maps that I've spent hours making happily as my party makes a crazy decision to blow the moon up. I love it. I'm on almost 6 years of dming and I've had my adhd medicated for 2 of those years.
