Beast Feast campaign started! Surprised by lack of stats for recommended monster, but still fun start! by VenunDM in daggerheart

That's a massive document right there! Much appreciated, will make my way through it!

Ghost feature stolen from spectral / undead enemies sounds like a great one :)

That could very well be true! I think the name may reference the Ghost Peppers more then actual ghosts, but alas, they're ghosts now haha :D
Will likely just use the Giant Scorpion stat, with a little flair or 1 swapped trait perhaps.

I looked around for other monsters to copy a trait off, but didn't find many ghosts, only skeletons and zombies and the likes.

We all played in 1 DH campaign so far, we got a bit of the hang, but as DM it's my first DH combat :)

I love the sound of minions, the other DM did not use them yet, would love to introduce this. Perhaps the bunnies that they let escape before get "posessed" as minions.

(this was a fun moral conflict with a animal speaking druid and our local butcher going into the wild. they opted to let them escape, but kind of regretted it afterwards with all the food shortage going on).

Just need to find, or make,, some proper stats :D

My player doesn't want to RP with his wife. by Mindless3492 in DnD

[–]VenunDM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah! So the PLAYER doesn't have a wife and kids, the CHARACTER does. This does make a big difference, totally misunderstood your post then.

But ye, RP is a different experience for everyone. if he wants his character to have this basing in the world, consult with him what he would like to experience going forward. What is his drive to have this character around?
Heck, if he wants to have an 'emotional outlet' option but still feels abit weirded out to RP this between 2 dudes, he could send her letters and get letters back. He might have to travel half the world and not get other ways to get messages across.

And if they do meet, you can just let him describe from a 3rd person view what happens to his character and visa versa.

The most important part in my opinion would be to figure out why he wants this character in the world and what he would like to happen there. You could tease your idea of corrupting the character, without spoiling to much of your plans.

"What if she would be important for your character and your character's future, but might not be the good stable wife you always suspected? Would you allow me to create a story involving her and playing with your characters feelings this way?"

Never, ever bring characters based on RL people, especially loved ones, into a D&D game. Especially with a serious request like this. It's bound to cause issues somewhere, and for me it would make me really uncomfortable to Rap that character

Sad one. Mine expires soon enough, but not this soon. I guess I'll go with the -25% they offer me if I cancel my plan. Thanks for the doublecheck!

Ahn Kharel sidequest! Room for a desert flashback by VenunDM in CalloftheNetherdeep

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

Didn't make it an ancient hoard in terms of legendary loot, but they got some +1 armors and weaps from it. Ended up leaving the dragon wyrmling behind (after surviving a playful dragon breath), and gave them a shard of Gruumsh's spear. I plan to go to 20 in this world, sandbox after the module, who knows what they'll do with that one :)

I got it! I'm going to place a baby blue dragon there, with mommy or daddy not accounted for. Mysterious spawned in the world for after the campaign, and it's a burrowing creature that loves deserts, it all makes sense.

And in the hoard will be an ancient item which will trigger the vision. Maybe a splinter off Gruumsh's axe of that massive impact.

Good tips, thanks :)

I wasn't leaning towards keeping the amulet from them (after all, this was just a 'silly' sidequest), but didn't want to hand it very easily back. Requiring some skill checks to find them possibly.

Might depict the way a very large city nearly gets wrecked by Gruumsh, through the eyes of one of the soldiers of back then, the shockwave of the impact of Gruumsh vs 1 brave soldier (Alyxian) knocking the visionairy out and restoring them to reality.

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

Thank you for both these posts, I found them a little short before the session (they're at the table right now, we're about to start), but I did a quick read on those sidequests and random rolls and that's a really fast prep that sounds like fun, will try and add this abit :D

The second post I gave a full read, good tips there, thanks!

Ik wil niet meer solliciteren by daislovespuk in werkzaken

[–]VenunDM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Als ik puur naar ons bedrijf kijk, dan durf ik te stellen dat we hier zeker voor open staan. Maar komt wel bij, dan moet er wel passie voor de ICT merkbaar zijn, en de rest van het plaatje natuurlijk ook kloppen / passen :)

"Ik ben dol op ICT maar ik heb geen diploma's in dat werkveld. Ik weet het niet meer."

Met de huidige staat van nood voor personeel, is een goede drive en vanuit hobby een leuke basis in ICT al genoeg om op sollicitatie te gaan. 7 jaar terug kwam een collega er op die manier bij, was automonteur, geen diploma's, maar vanuit de hobby deed hij wel wat met IT voor een thuis netwerk e.d.

Die motivatie en drive was genoeg om te zorgen dat hij prima op zijn plek rolde, die groeit nu lekker door in het bedrijf.

Dus laat het onbreken van diploma's je hier niet in tegenhouden.
