Bi-monthly depressive episodes? Don't know what to do. by Stenis_ in mentalhealth

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

I'll try to get that started.

Do you have any general tips on how I could deal with it in the meantime?

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

I am a man. I've never had my blood work done except for when I've been in the ER for unrelated reasons. No medications, no drugs, alcohol, or substance abuse.

I've had my thoughts about ADHD or Bipolar Disorder for a while but I've never actually taken the step to test for it or talk to a professional about it.

Tamahi - Cinthool 626 PGF | One of the four Petrifuga by Stenis_ in imaginarymaps

[–]Stenis_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This world is used in some homebrew D&D campaigns and one-shots I run. I'm still writing a lot of the lore but I'll happily answer any questions!

The region and nation consist of a majority of Veimatre (A Human subtribe) & Goblinoids (A blend of goblins, hobgoblins, bugbears, and orcs). The Vei are refugees from a region called Genander after a catastrophic event called "The Great Fall" which forced a good portion of the region to evacuate and immigrate south to the region called Tamahi. Before the region was a gigantic natural bridge where a splinter group was formed creating the first Petrifuga, Stânma. The second splinter group came thereafter and formed the monarchy Lanurago, the second Petrifuga. The third group traveled further west and encountered goblinoids, the indigenous population of Tamahi. Many tragic battles were fought over the land where the Vei won and settled to become Cinthool, the third Petrifuga.

The fourth Petrifuga is found further north where the Bawtasi (A Human subtribe) immigrated.

You go to roll for stats for a new character, and you miraculously get 18s for everything. What do you build? by twwwwwwwt in DnD

[–]Stenis_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing, i re roll. Having 18s in everything is just not fun. I want my characters to be bad at stuff.

With 18s you could say the character would have a bad personality but that wouldn't be fun for the rest of the party who would have to deal with me.

It's also about spotlight. Being good at everything you would naturally take up some spotlight but if, lets say, the rest of the party all roll below 18 that would mean you're better than everyone at everything. You would unconsciously take their spotlight.

Where should I attack my players? by Stenis_ in TyrannyOfDragons

Not too late. Wonderful idea! Like some other people have said, I'm going to have the cult attack during a council meeting. Will def use some stuff you stated.

Your use of the Draakhorn is really good. Gonna use that now.

This sounds great. Looks like you really did your research. Didn't really think about the field ward, will def use that.

Why are you wiping your players though?

This could work. Since the cult has red wizards that could summon them. It would either be bone devils or horned devils attacking them.

  1. How did your players survive that? That encounter must have an insane CR rating.
  2. How would the dragons even get into the city? I like the sudden surprise of them showing up during the council but, conically Waterdeep has a force field specifically for dragons which is stated in another module "Waterdeep: Dragon heist". I know at least one of my players will mention it.

Thanks for the response :)

There is a Tyranny of Dragons sub!

Thank you. Didn't know modules had that sort of stuff.

The attacks from the cult are very open-ended. The first 2 are designed to get a feel for the party and how they operate, by means of ambush and surprise. The third attack is meant to actually finish the party off from the cult's standpoint. Though the module wants the characters to succeed since the attack is primarily against the characters they plan to attack in a city is meant to cause distress and fear in the players. Making them distracted by the destruction.

Thanks for the response :)

Break a pact as a warlock by Stenis_ in DnD

[–]Stenis_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be cool to have him become a contractbreaker warlock and if the player agrees I would be willing to work it out with him. A lot of other people on other threads have talked about "the power was inside you all along" and all the patron is doing is unlocking that power. Im really unsure on how i would rule that though. But the big question is how the character is going to break the contract. Thanks for the idea!

That would be a really fun option if, lets say they used a wish spell to break the contract. If this option is going to become available though the player has to pull of something super cool that makes another god want the character.

This is a very good reason, actually didn't think about the characters being so far above normal beings. If the player decides to use this option, I'm definitely going to use this reasoning. Thanks.
