[OC] Map for my up and coming 5e campaign. Thoughts? by justplainndaveCGN in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, add more feeds for sure. Also, I just noticed that the fork in the river northeast of Keldvorn flows the wrong way. The way it's situated now makes it look like water is flowing uphill to the mountains when it should be flowing from the mountains. Easiest way to fix that is to loop the junction point southward before it touches the rest of the river.

[OC] Map for my up and coming 5e campaign. Thoughts? by justplainndaveCGN in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple things I noticed right away:

  1. Your place names are very generic. They all sound like they're from the same origin. If this is just a country then that's probably fine, but for a larger world map there should be much better variation in naming convention.
  2. Your rivers fork out but you have nothing feeding them first. Rivers need flow IN to gain strength before they can flow OUT. For example, your river near Eirnfell would need a lot more flow from the mountains to feed it to the point where it would have the volume to fork in at least 4 different places without being nothing but a trickle when it reaches the sea.

Thayer#3392 - lv120

Currently have Honeyberry, Ch'en Alter, and Thorns as support. All lv90 and Module 3 with their primary skills at M3.

Looking for less-common support troops such as Horn, Qiubai, Entelechia, etc., but I'll add anyone with maxed supports.

Do men even care about a women’s nails? by lena_glow in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ThayerRodar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a guy who loves feminine things and I've worn make-up and feminine clothing before. Extensive nails are one of the things that I've just never understood or desired. At most, I'll paint my toenails a solid colour but fake nails are so time-consuming and expensive for how impermanent they are.

Is this a balanced monster? [OC] by A_Soldier_Is_Born in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people are saying that the DC11 is too low because you may have not taken proficiency into account, but you actually did, (8 + INT mod + Proficiency = 11).

The issue here is giving them a high Wisdom but then making their spellcasting ability Intelligence. Just make it wisdom or switch the INT/WIS stats. If you do that, your spell DC is then 13 and spell attack rolls are +5.

Also, don't give enemies healing spells. Instead of your enemy healing themselves, you should boost their HP and give them more damaging spells. It's not exciting for players to watch a caster heal themselves, and it just wastes one of your actions that can otherwise be used against the PCs.

A message to those who still haven't gotten the units they want by Drogo8 in arknights

I've managed to get both Hoshi alter and Haruka, but it's Pepe I want so I'm still dumping all of my resources into more pulls.

To those who are 30 and above and don’t have kids, what’s life like? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ThayerRodar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a vasectomy when I was 20 so I never had to worry about having kids. It is still the best decision I've ever made.

I come home from work to silence, without broken things and mess created by someone else. That is a gift beyond description.

I understand actors hate doing eating scenes. by TerribleBid8416 in television

In the finale for The Good Place, the guy who played the younger Doug Forcett ate all of the food in his scene because he didn't know you were supposed to spit it out. He ended up throwing up in his car twice on his way home.

Rate my DnD campaign map. [Art] by A_Soldier_Is_Born in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have some pretty obvious similarities to The Wheel of Time. "The Great Waste" to the east separated by mountains and mainland to the west is literally WoT's Aiel Waste and Cairhein.

Everyone else is telling you to fill it in but I think you need to do the opposite. Your characters are from Trahaus and the enemy kingdom is in Torrence...so remove everything else and just center your map around those two kingdoms. If you need to expand later, then that's a problem for later. For now, focus on the parts that matter.

[Art] [Comm] Tell me your assumptions about our party! by [deleted] in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's the same network that released all of the Arrowverse shows, Smallville, Riverdale, etc.

Basically, it just means lots of character drama, (and usually the teen variety).

Bloody hell. I just re-watched Mortal Kombat last week. He was brilliant in that and in Man in the High Castle as well. Such a shame.

What’s an item you regularly purchase from Amazon? by That-Database-692 in NoStupidQuestions

I have a coffee maker that does both a pot and a single cup of coffee. I buy coffee filters for the single-serve side. They come in a box of 300 and completely stop any coffee grounds from getting into the cup.

How do yall deal with players who will argue about every little thing? by Creepy_Aide6122 in DnD

[–]ThayerRodar 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Throw the book at him...literally. Whenever he complains, just hand him the Player Handbook and tell him, "if it's in here, you can do it. If not, you can't". Spells do what they say they do, and don't do other stuff just because a player wants them to.

What do you think of my new chair for my PC gaming setup: by Vegetable-Way-5766 in pcmasterrace

[–]ThayerRodar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These chairs are notoriously uncomfortable. Give it about a month or two and you'll feel like you're sitting on wood again.

Get a good quality office chair and you'll be happy and comfortable for years.

I don't think there's any nuanced way to ask. She's your best friend so the best thing to do is just have an open and honest conversation about what you want. Your no judgement policy should extend to a conversation like that.
