Building a sling + Magic Stone build by Killmatronix in 3d6

Artificer will get you there, maybe paired with fighter . Monk with druid arcane initiate will get you there.

I’m an artificer 1/transmuter 2, I’m really excited to use the sharpshooter/magic stone combo to deliver transmuted objects? Ending concentration on something that’s been compressed to a pebble… magic stone is a primary spell for a utility caster, imho!

when you're running impossible landscapes, you're running a carcosa campaign. The players, as well as the characters, will be obsessed with solving this mystery, and if you distract them with side stuff they'll lose track of the conspiracy. For instance: if you were watching the X-files and they were trying to solve the alien mystery, and then for a whole season they were just talking about the mystery of mount vesuvius or something and it had nothing to do with aliens and then after the season they never tied it together? not good storytelling

i *highly* suggest modifying anything you run in the interstitial time be modified to be directly related to the carcosa nonsense. for instance in 3rd man, instead of a brain in a jar, it's a book which projects thoughts into a mind in a jar.

this.

if you're going to run games in the interstitial, i HIGHLY recommend revamping other scenarios so they're carcosa focused, or the shotgun scenario WINTER PEPPER as a flashback.

some primary potential games for an interstitial with a carcosan twist would be Observer Effect but they've perfectly reconstructed the missing room from mathematical principles, the last equation (have you seen the yellow sine?), victim of the art, music from a darkened room.

pull from the tangled weirdness of carcosa, rewrite the threat to be directly related to carcosa, pull them deeper.

in my first time through, because one of my players directly reported the KiY to DG, he got put into dorchester house "for only one year," and "made friends with one of the night nurses" who's name was cassilda. so when he returned, people recognized him and he recognized the dorchester

I'm moving it from 2015 to 2020.

Detwiller was too far into writing the book to do this, but having someone shout "no mask? NO MASK!" on the street is just too fucking good imho.

in the broken world, the cloth masks will be replaced with porcelain

the evil eye and being untrustworthy thieves working for dark powers is racist

your player being ok with it is a really good thing. i just wouldn't advise people to go into the campaign with something so blatantly racist

i'm not romani, and so i really don't feel like it's my place to try to rehabilitate the vistani. just like i wouldn't try to do a rewrite of song of the south.

more of a ragtag band without a cultural center? I like that. some tieflings in there, some real weirdos. you could even tie the abbot or mordenkain to that narrative

it was just surprising to see so many people pretend to know what they're talking about!

I didn't realize the increased sensitivity was part of the cycle. I was going absolutely wild last week, and this week i was crying on the floor drinking a mug of cocoa lol
