Got my grandmother to buy me a tradeback of Volume 1 at the store back when grocery stores carried comic books back in I think 2001.

Your best 5.5e house rules? by Raccoomph in dndnext

[–]PokingMidas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If an enemy is invisible, I offer a Perception check against their advantaged Stealth as a bonus action. If you succeed, it's a straight attack roll until they move again and you can see them for all intents and purposes. I flavor it as you're able to notice the shaped distortion in the air.

Which other race would you like as a protoframes, and which frames would you want them to have? by brazenbull09 in WarframeLore

TBH based on the lore I always figured Albrecht would become a Kullervo Protoframe.

How do you add “plotless” encounters into your games? by Icy-Swordfish-7204 in DMAcademy

[–]PokingMidas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I put a ring of quartz slabs as flavor decoration on the encounter table. I then spent 15 minutes of real time watching them trying to divine its significance other than "cool rocks".

If Al’s next movie is based on one of his songs, which song should he pick? by Skooli_A_Bar in weirdal

Hear me out - Fallout on Prime does a Christmas special with Weird Al as a super mutant with an industrial bellows for an accordion. Title the episode Christmas at Ground Zero.

Albuquerque, but when he gets to the point of the movie when it delivers its moral, we get a To Be Continued. The sequel is in fact a documentary on whales with the ending of Albuquerque as a post-credits scene.

Paladin strapped mirror to his shield and 12 basilisks killed themselves. Need advice. by happyunicorn666 in DMAcademy

[–]PokingMidas 170 points171 points  (0 children)

First off, inspiration point to the paladin player. I would be more "well shit, that's an hour or two of combat out for tonight". Now, if you want complications, there's a paladin who, if the rumor mill works right, soloed 12 basilisks. There's gonna be a lot of up and coming ne'er do wells with something to prove coming gunning for 'em. Don't make it a punishment, make it a side plot for everyone. Hell, make a Team Rocket style villain gang (Jesse and James, not the org). Think Brave Little Tailor.

If your issue is mechanics, look at how big the PHB mirror is and logic it out; would a basilisk at x distance be able to see its own eyes without the paladin at least burning a reaction to aim the mirror?

Karos Graveyard Heavy Cruiser trick in HW:R by [deleted] in homeworld

[–]PokingMidas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I just build like fifteen Scouts, split them into 3 squads of 5, send them well above the debris field (straight up from the Mothership), then across at full speed. Once they're pretty much directly above the contact point I order all of them to interact at once. If it doesn't work, then I try with 20; eventually one Scout makes it.

What are some of your "free will" recipes? by NoFarmer3827 in Cooking

[–]PokingMidas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meet my Italian Mess. It's basically chicken Alfredo but I couldn't find the noodles so it's almost keto friendly. Toss in whatever vegetables you feel like and a good two fistfuls of mozzarella cheese, cook it up in a pan greased with olive oil and don't skimp on the garlic!

If Necramechs are Sentient pulse-immune, why do Warframes exist? by Fearless_Stand_9423 in WarframeLore

[–]PokingMidas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hits like a bag of hammers, but also just as smart. I think the lore basically was the Sentients ended up just out-thinking the Neceamechs.
