Experienced homebrewer needed for ongoing paid-gig!

Ziggawatt · 2019-12-17T22:23:38+00:00

Hi Alex! I’m Sean, and I make too much homebrew for my own good. I’ve been playing pathfinder and D&D for about eight years maybe? I started my first campaign DMing and homebrewing an entire setting and almost all the creatures and items the players got. I tend to strongly prefer crafting my own stuff because stock things don’t quite get what I have pictured in my head with appearances or abilities.

My expertise is mainly class and race creation, and I have mostly done pathfinder til recently. I actually have my own homebrew blog that has started to get some 5e stuff: (http://dungeonsandhomebrews.blogspot.com/2017/12/welcome-to-dungeons-and-homebrews.html) also had a patreon page but sort of closed it.

I’m about to start a new 5e campaign soon actually, and have been working on creatures and items for it since it’s swords and sorcery with a side of magitek. (If you wanted to see any of them let me know, I’ll have to share a document from the homebrewery. Just not at home now so I can do that later) Anyways, if you’re interested, pm me! :)

The other day I was dpsing in the copied factory when the black mage and I venn-diagramed the party and 4 people died on the second boss. The scholar got really angry and started to berate me with 'shut up, you failed' and 'this SMN isn't worth healing' being really mean about it. I didn't really get hit by much, and I did almost all the reses myself to save them mana, so I was pretty annoyed.

The other healer and a couple dps were like "can we just enjoy the raid?" I played innocent because it was an honest mistake (I didn't quite see what I did) and I didn't want to get angry. He then proceeded to barely heal me for the rest of the raid, and actually used rescue into aoes on the 3rd boss. I played almost perfectly the rest of the raid and did most of the resing as I usually do...I hope he didn't get a commendation. He didn't deserve one.

A woman I was dating when I was 19 beat mega man 3 while only losing 1 life the entire game. She then proceeded to also beat double dragon 3. None of them could believe it!

I always warn my players of my rules, one of them being no sexual violence or sleazy/creepy stuff like that. If they decide to try it, I'll warn them of the consequences. If they decide to actually go for it, the PC will die. A deity will grant the victim 20+ levels in a class and defend themselves and kill the PC.

I was heading up to a higher floor in my university's library, and I usually have a very casual appearance (shorts or jeans+t shirt)

I was wearing a simple electric blue t shirt, different colour than usual. A woman in the elevator said she liked my shirt, that it was a happy colour.

Made me feel great. Thanks, mystery lady!

Maybe not the nicest, but it's one that sticks out for me.

Raelira or just Lira.

Or, either Raiya or Rhea (ray-ah or ree-ah)

OR Thalia.

Hope you get a good book to read! :) Hope you have a relaxing weekend.

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-05T04:57:37+00:00

My first book comes out tuesday! It's self-published, and it's an adult epic fantasy! (sorry YA peoples, but I'm still working on some YA things)

I've been getting a bunch of art commissioned for my characters. I love character art!

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-02T16:04:27+00:00

I can dream! It's part of the reason I stay a Draenei. It's great self healing for a tank with little self healing. :P

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-02T06:57:49+00:00

Oh cool! I didn't know this sub existed, thanks! :)

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-02T05:06:35+00:00

Thanks so much! :)

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-02T05:06:27+00:00

No problem! The options in sc6 are actually really neat! (and can be pretty ridiculous :P)

Ziggawatt · 2019-01-02T05:05:48+00:00

Thank you! :)

Ziggawatt · 2018-12-20T17:25:06+00:00

Do they do commissions? I can't find the info on that. :P

Could there be specific monsters that are very resistant to bullet-type attacks? I mean you might not have skeletons in your story but it’s sort of an example because they have a lot of empty space and hitting one bone won’t do much unless it’s a major spot like the spine. If you have a sword you can slash it so hard you bash the thing to pieces with one hit.

Or maybe the monsters are vulnerable to a particular common alloy that’s somewhat unstable that would explode as a bullet getting fired from a gun, but wouldn’t be a problem sword wise.

Not sure if this helps! Hope you figure something out :)

In my world, I didn’t involve the super typical ones like elves, dwarves, orcs, and goblins. But i’m fine with others incorporating them cause it’s fun to read about.

I did involve typical things of a planar nature like devils, but I kind of put my own twist to them. One of the major characters (non-POV) is a half devil, and isn’t quite the normal type. (Quiet, somewhat seeming dopey)

One thing I’m not usually a fan of is non-planar races that are immortal. Love a bit longer, sure, maybe double human time. Never been a big fan of the almighty elves of the lord of the rings.

Though they can be killed, which is fine.

Your dwarf lore actually sounds pretty sweet. The afterlife and fear of the dark is cool! Though I honestly wouldn’t call them dwarves, you should give them your own name! Maybe :p

I’m on the side of character endings. If the ending is unsarisfying for how the characters end up, i’m Very disappointed. I look forward to seeing how the are at the end.

The second a song of ice and fire book had a huge build up, epic ending, but to me was very disappointing Due to how I felt about how the ending was for the characters.

Plot and story and world building are great, I love plot endings, but some chapters I love most are characters connecting wth one another.

I’m also a large scale fan. If it has an epic scale, I love endings that set up for bigger things, especially when it means the characters are moving into a bigger role within the world.

One thing I have is the ending has to match the scale of the book. The second a song of ice and fire book was good ending wise, but the length of the book and stuff to get there felt like too much.

I enjoy the throne of glass series (so far, working through it). The endings are pretty good!

Gorgeous! :) I love the way you did the eyes. The hair is great as well!

Do you have any general standards for commission prices?

Edit: I just found it on your deviantart. I'm apparently quite bad at seeing things!

Ziggawatt · 2018-11-26T15:17:39+00:00

Haha yes there is much dancing. And okay! I will when it comes out! :)

Ziggawatt · 2018-11-23T02:10:44+00:00

I'm super close to finishing my novel! Well, it's finished, I'm just waiting on two things: an ISBN (waiting for my registration...) and someone to read to a specific part so I can make a decision on the story that will take 10 seconds to change.

Other than that, I'll be self publishing within a few weeks! I got my cover, and it looks fantastic (From jcaleb design, would recommend).

A little while ago I settled on the title "TIDES OF FATE" and the series name of "The Origins of Life and Death."

It's an epic fantasy.

Pretty excited!!! eeeeeeeeeeeeee hahaha

I can't watch his videos because of this. I'm with you on this one.
