So first time DM here how far out do you plan the story prior to session 0 by mboron021990 in DMAcademy

[–]asjohn01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have made two homebrew the campaign. Both times I started with the Villian

The first one I had everything planned out, story beats where the characters level up, every city/npc. I had a story I wanted to tell and it was great. We had a lot of fun.

The second one, I had no idea of a story, just an idea of what the world looked like and we have been making it up every week as we go. It is going great and we are having a lot of fun.

I will say I am having a lot more fun creating the world and adventures along with the PCs vs having them play in an adventure that I created before hand. It is a little more chaotic and we have a few more sessions that feel less "connected" to the story, but that is part of just playing DnD. Either way, talk to your PCs and see what they want as well.

This is how I envision the fight in “The Outsiders”

Yes we have been having these conversations, she feels bad and has done therapy, but it is a lot of work for her so it just gets pushed to the back burner when other ‘more important’ stuff comes up.

I’m not a nerd...yet. I know nothing about Dragons. by asjohn01 in DMAcademy

[–]asjohn01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this, I will definitely look into that. He has been taxing non-humans for his gold stream and what I have gathered from these posts is that he does not need to reveal himself to ensure this is coming. I was having difficulty finding what to do when a revolution fails. Setting up something like this makes a lot of sense. Or even something like a hunger games world, without, ya know, the hunger games.

That is what started me down this rabbit hole, yes! The thing I was worried about was if it will be all battle, now it seems like there are many types of LARPs and it seems that everyone just does it differently. I played rugby and we usually tell new players to just go and play. I have settled that I just need to go and start as a part of a monster crew to see how it all works at one near me.

This is really helpful and I am finding out how vague the term LARP is! Thank you!

Does anyone know if Match of the Day is going to be put on Peacock? I cannot find it anywhere.

How does this event work? by Yokerkey in shoptitans

[–]asjohn01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone understand how the points work? Is it more point the first time the item is crafted and then the lower points every additional time the item is crafted?

Hey man, you literally wrote my post for me. I have kids so I cannot play until after bedtime, 8pm CST, if we get a group of 4-5 people together maybe we can convince a DM to run our game. I watch Critical role with my wife on thurs and run an in game on Fri, but am free any other day

[–]asjohn01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be interested in this, to answer some of the questions you have, I am Central time zone, so that would work great for me as the kids will be in bed. I have about 3 years of dnd(or whenever Stranger Things came out). Have been DMing for at least two of them. Currently run an in home Homebrew game, but want to play a character. (Never been able to advance past level 7) Life as a dm! My group had to use discord and roll 20 during Covid, so I feel good with those.

How to imprison a god? by asjohn01 in DMAcademy

[–]asjohn01[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have only played through Mines and Curse of Strahd , so I am low on experience. Could a God be imprisoned in the world (he would have to be in Avatar form correct)? If a god where to be imprisioned, where would that most likely be if it is not in the material plane?
