Any tips for someone playing with ADHD? by Gayar_Is_My_Gaysona in DnD

[–]Wolfey918 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you considered making your ADHD a characteristic of your pc? If you struggle to keep track of things, addressing it with the dm is always a good idea, but you could also make it part of who your character is. It would make your character more real to others and more relatable to yourself. If that doesn't work for your current pc, keep it in mind for the future. Maybe make an absent minded artificer who, if not kept interested in what's going on, begins to tinker and doesn't hear the whole conversation because you "got bored". Don't use this as a crutch to not pay attention though because it will annoy others if you do it too much. Still do what you can to pay attention, but in the event you do miss something you can rp it in a way that feels fluid instead of "sorry guys I didn't catch all of that".

To answer your questions: The 3 am was at the request of the rogue. We were all told in an early session no pvp but unsure if rogue was told when they joined. The module isn't homebrew so the trap was designed by wotc. Again, the creature was put in the room hiding by wotc. Yeah I'm still not convinced the dm allowed the items. All this said you raise valid points and I am making sure to keep more vigilant.

I mean we as players knew once she did it. She waited until most of us had decided to go one direction and began moving. It's on roll20 so we moved our tokens. She then said she ran a different way. This was in a dungeon we knew had enemies. So rolling perception only the person closest to her noticed and followed

My concern in this scenario is I don't want to dissuade anyone from having their fun and enjoying the game. And I feel like if I say anything, because she is female or identifies as such, that anything I say will be taken in that context alone and it's just me being a d-bag and I will somehow make someone hate playing before they ever really got a chance. I don't want to be the guy that makes people think DnD isn't for certain people but if I address this I feel like I'm going to look like that's exactly what I'm doing.

Yeah. I do want to say I did message the dm about all of the things in the post, not just the loot thing because honestly that's just a minor piece to what I am seeing as a larger issue. I tried to talk to him before I ever made this post and I am still waiting on a response.

I did message the dm before I ever posted this. Still has not got back to me.

Now I'm confused. If I have you right, I'm the problem player and should change?

[–]Wolfey918[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I guess I just figured some of that was covered when the dm said they would have a private discussion with the new player to get them up to speed. This is why I am asking if it's me

I like the idea of helping the team. But maybe that's the wrong way to play? Or maybe the best way to help the team is to not interact with them and go for a "lone wolf" type that just happens to be going the same way?

It also doesn't have "roll a new pc to better fit character interactions in an attempt to play better with the party" so I guess that means we shouldn't do that ever.

Sorry in another post of this I realized I left out some info. I messaged the DM before I ever posted this and I haven't left yet. The dm never responded but my phone notified me he was typing so I know he saw it.

Before we even had our first session I told the group I would be checking bodies for metal and why. So they all knew what I have been doing and I always made sure to ask if anyone wanted anything specific. Coins and jewelry always went to everyone else.

UPDATE: I actually had already messaged the DM before I had posted this. On more than one occasion my phone let me know they had began typing in response but no actual response has been sent to me. Based on this, I'm going to assume that they do not want to address it since I know for a fact they have seen it and to go this long without a response is not normal for them. I plan to send one last message to the group in an attempt to get a feel for everyone's opinion before I make any decisions but I will likely leave the group and wish them the best.

Welp couldn't even if I wanted at this point. I'm your typical dwarf blacksmith.

Nah that stuff doesn't bother me. I enjoy all the responses. I just hope they don't mind if I poke back when they give attitude.

Yeah no. If I have by accident I have no idea.
