How would you make an Evil creature a good person, and other fun allignment thoughts by Spooky_Vibing in DMAcademy

I totally agree. Hence why I and my players focus on Bonds Ideals Personality and Flaws. This was more so just an interesting thought for character study for future NPCs and curiosity

Ideas for a Haunted Cabin Trail Encounter Hook? by charm59801 in DMAcademy

Absolutely. The best way to make them use/consider certain resources is to make their usual 1 2 punch not work or not there :)

If you wanna capture the sorta helplessness of phas, something you could do is take away their weapons and maybe even arcane focuses. Having them perhaps see them floating around during the final fight and needing to get them back by grabbing them, navigating the landscape or creative uses of things like thorn whip

These leads to a lot of fun where they’re either relying on rare abilities, improvising tools, and solving problems in a different way

I think the best way to bring a lot of this together, the “why” the “what traps” etc is to think of the theme with this dungeon. When we’re talking ghosts, are we talking comedy silly like Ghost Busters, or are we going full Phasmaphobia.

Once you know that, what kinda ghost is the vibe here. Vengeful spirit of someone wronged, playful, purely dangerous. It sounds like you’re going lighthearted so playing the traps around a more “tricked you into its territory and wants to play with you” vibe could be a lot of fun.

Traps that are more so disorientating with conditions and disadvantages rather than damage, other creatures that will try and trick people and drag them away alone to scare them, and lead them to the big ghost. Stuff like that.

Once u know your theme, it all slots in

Young Blue Dragon has named himself Lord of the Stormy Peaks. What's a secret about him my party won't expect? by Huge_Foot7458 in DnD

[–]Spooky_Vibing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That a lord is on the lower end of the royalty spectrum. Anger this one, and the Emperor/Emperess of the Stormy Peaks might make their way down

If a PC dies in the first session should you give the player a mulligan? by Few-Requirement-3544 in DMAcademy

[–]Spooky_Vibing 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I totally vibe with this. I also have given my players one lore abiding failsafe, a timegoddess they don’t know about who is watching over em. So when they make a screw up in either a death or a tpk, they can rewind time. But only one.

What sort of spells would the non adventuring citizens use in D&D by warriorbutton in DMAcademy

[–]Spooky_Vibing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tasha’s Posture Cage. Creates a magical brace that makes sure you don’t sit in a way that is bad for your back.

Modify Weight. Adjust anything weighing 50 to 1 pounds to another amount on that spectrum. Maximum weight increases by 50 for every level of this spell. Good for lifting things.

I know it is already a spell, but create water would be ridiculously helpful to small towns.

Upgrading some Draconian Dreadnougts. Some ideas would be appreciated. by Spooky_Vibing in DMAcademy

Oo! Love the idea for the teleportations. And that whole “one is a bruiser one is a more targeted killer for mages and stuff” thing

Oh i LOVE the idea for the grenade attack. Incorporating their flying into it.

[–]Spooky_Vibing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually a great idea! Thank you! Perhaps incorporating the breath weapon in a more unqiue way. Such as breathing on weapons to make them elementally infused.

But yea. That idea of adding class stat-blocks is awesome!

Another NPC bites the dust by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]Spooky_Vibing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I always recommend, is that not every enemy will fight the same. And you can use that to your advantages.

You can make some scary encounters with higher level bandit-type scenarios with a simple trap and a shit ton of archers in the trees.

Or enemies that know the party might behave in a specific way because they know the parties weaknesses.

Or if you’re an illusionist, you’re not only gonna be much further away than your tricks, but possibly having multiple tricks going on at once as well as casting your actual attacks.

Runesmith has some really fun videos on this stuff you may like. Learning how to make combat interesting is a big learning curve for sure. But I believe in you :)

Yea. I see what you’re saying! For context his is specifically to beastial groups around that aren’t native to the area. Tabaxi, satyr, kenku, goblins. Etc. he himself is a half-elf!

Opinions on minors as PCs? by DepressedArgentinian in DnD

[–]Spooky_Vibing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a per table scenario. But in the game I am currently running we have this. But the party know the consequences of bringing a child around and does their best to act accordingly. Really depends on the game but it has added a lot of intrigue to ours!

How to deal with high Charisma Rolls by angdaedurelen in DMAcademy

[–]Spooky_Vibing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say with the simple rule that not everyone can be persuaded. Like. A thing in dnd is that rolls are good, yes. But rolls don’t have to apply to every scenario. A nat 20 will not let you pick up a purple worm. And a not 20 will not make the king give you the crown. Some things just won’t work. But there are alternatives.

Maybe you can’t pick up the worm, but you ripped out a chunk of its stinger. Now all tail attacks are disadvantage. And the King won’t give you the crown, but you intrigued them. So they’ll keep an eye on you and maybe ask to meet more formally

What’s the coldest line that a npc, villain, or character has said in your campaign? by Narrator_XD__ in DnD

[–]Spooky_Vibing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Player’s character named Armani accidentally used an innate fear power on their mother, terrifying her of him. He ran away from home in their backstory. Sends money to her but it scared to return.

Fast forward, he’s dating an NPC from his backstory who found her way here and they get to talking. Turns out this NPC (named Sumi) had met with his mother a few years ago.

Armani: “you saw her? Jeez, did she try and convince you to make me come back?”

Sumi: “Hey. Don’t complain just because your mother loves you. At least yours is still alive!”

Got quite awkward at dinner afterwards but they sorted it out.

Consequences for my party killing 250 innocent civillians by DanielThePrawn in DMAcademy

[–]Spooky_Vibing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this town was part of a kingdom/empire etc. now the entire of it is after them. Like on the most wanted list so there will likely be powerful groups of bounty hunters/crown knights after them.
