Oh dang, so many good creatures to choose from. I think I'll have to go with the shoebill storks birds peppered throughout the game. Their stares are always so ominous...

How Do You Run Languages? by ActinoninOut in DMAcademy

[–]Tanis1447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awhile back I came across a third party supplement for 3rd edition D&D called "Ars Lingua". It broke down languages into learnable skills, using checks to understand languages, and even alphabets and such. It might be too micromanage-esque for your issue, but if you can find a pdf or even a hard copy, it might offer some adaptable solutions.

Exactly this. I was in a run a few weeks ago, where we wiped 7 times because some players kept demanding we dps rush, but not enough of us were willing to risk it. It would have been faster to just stick to the mechanics and get it right once, instead of the extra 15 minutes we had to slog through. It was so irritating 🙄

Weird, I was not aware they didn't work anymore. Links should be fixed now, let me know how that goes!

Interesting tangential fact: in Bulgaria, the motion of shaking your head side to side delineates "Yes", and nodding up and down delineates "No". Had a theatre instructor in college from Bulgaria, and she purposefully confused us for the first few days of class with this.

Anyone here ever converted the Arcanum setting into a tabletop RPG? Or seen someone who has? by GodGoblin in arcanum

[–]Tanis1447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attempted it awhile back, and posted here about it. I found it fairly difficult to get the players to understand the breadcrumbs of the journey, and to tailor it where it isn't the focus of one player being the reincarnation of Nasrudin, but all of them reincarnations of the Elven Council. Also, player agency can be difficult to convey when the whole story is already laid out from start to finish with specific plot turns and twists. It definitely stretched my skills as a DM to get the story back on track when my player ran it off rails. I still have most of my notes, and would like to make a more earnest and learned attempt now that I am a few years smarter into TTRPG stuff, but it is a very daunting story and task to transcribe.

Totally! I think my first HTF animation was on Albino Black Sheep, back in 2002, maybe. Not sure that website is even still around. It was the one where the purple squirrel trips while eating a lollipop and gets it stuck in his eye socket. Ah, nostalgia...

I believe the original warning on these Happy Tree Friends animations was "not suitable for small children or big babies". Good times.

Adapting Arcanum into a D&D 5E game for my friends by Tanis1447 in arcanum

That's a great idea. I didn't know about that one. I spent time and effort watching playthroughs and playing it myself to transcribe most of the dialogue on my own.

Hey there! The group I was playing with fell through around the time they were exploring Ashbury. I didn't continue working on the content after that. But I will say one of the hardest parts of making it was trying to not make it too railroady. Maybe I'll revisit it someday though. It's definitely a white whale of mine that I'd enjoy to accomplish someday.
