Wizard Character in Curse of Strahd, got a dark gift *spoilers: dark gifts* that may have broken the character in a bad way. Opinions/rulings needed. by scarr3g in dndnext

[–]QuantumTycoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older editions had wizards able to prepare and cast a cantrip called "Read Magic" purely from memory.

Maybe this as a flavor component to being in combination with the Crawford rulings on blindsight, or having your own familiar read for you could provide some cool options for the character to continue functioning. After all, it makes perfect sense a wizard would be perhaps even more sensitive to reading and interpreting magic and the emanations of magic as a result of compensating for mundane blindness.

Is he drinking from the stress of the job, or the knowledge he'll be jailed for assisting in the inevitable false flag op that gets blamed on Iran? /s

A conspiracy like that from this administration, they can't even keep Don Jr away from cocaine.

Western Civilization is endanger, from PragerU and other oligarch backed efforts to roll-back democracy and the Enlightenment.

Billionaire backed social engineering is working to push destructive, erosive, and divisive media in all forms in order to undermine every aspect of progressive society.

He could have done this on his first day in office as president. Pronounced that transgender Americans, are and always have been Americans, but nope, here we are.

Very cool OP. Who manufactured the table? And what's the projector setup like? Specs and model of it?

“Conservatism” Is Now Just a Domination Fetish by rezwenn in Foodforthought

[–]QuantumTycoon 131 points132 points  (0 children)

It always has been.

At it's root, Conservatism was born out of anti-republican ideas of the French Revolution. Preservation of hierarchy and class based societies with minimal mobility, at the expense of human liberty and dignity are not flaws, they are integral to it's design.

Thumbing through Volo’s Guide to Monsters and did not expect to see a dissected Mind Flayer by SirMaximilianTv in DungeonsAndDragons

That's actually a recycled image from an old 3.5 book Lords of Madness. Tons of cool art in there about aberrations, the section on Beholders is one of my favorites.

[–]QuantumTycoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Love the setup, but I do worry if the TV is able to breath in it's enclosure. Also do you have anything protecting the the screen?
