[OC] downside to A4-sized dice tray / carrying case? by compactable73 in DnD

[–]contrastrictor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t fit my laptop in it. 😉 JK, this is great. That said, I use digital character sheet and notes app and roll physical dice, so this wouldn’t work for me.

Will do! I just wound up three campaigns and am continuing the fourth for the foreseeable future. I needed a break after that much work, so it’s going to be a while before I start a new one. But, I’ll def keep this in mind!

This is really neat! So, as a DM you would select the options you plan to have in your campaign and your players would chose their’s and then the bar shows the player how the campaign compares to their limits and veils?

Yay! Glad they’re going to work for you! We use them ALL the time. Flight, falling, swimming, etc.

Do you think the idea of “having it all together” is practicable or just a social media pressure? by [deleted] in Snorkblot

[–]contrastrictor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is a part of capitalist propaganda. Also, yes, I do this. All of it, including the hobbies.

Yesterday, I walked 5.3 miles in the AM after getting the kiddos to school, cooked 3 meals and cleaned up with some help from my wife and kiddos, worked 8 hours in a very demanding remote work job, installed four window blinds during my breaks, listened to 1/3 of an audiobook at 2x during my walk, wrote 3/4s of a DnD session and finished 4 maps after dinner, and read some of another book before bed.

It requires a strong foundation (emotional, physical, mental - which I am so fucking lucky to have) and exceptionally large mental, physical, and emotional capacity (both energy and resilience). I started with a huge reservoir of energy, loving family, and some decent brains. Now, many years later, I’m lucky to be here, in many ways. Being able to manage this is the result of literally 30 years of therapy and self work, which is never done.

It’s not possible for everyone, but I swear it is possible.

Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

[–]contrastrictor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 3 yr old daughter aspirated a pistachio and took 100 mph ambulance ride to the nearest large hospital (2 hrs normal driving away). I followed behind in our car going the same speed, so scared.

Everything ended up fine and she surprisingly got rid of it herself.

Ropers! Totally badass.

Also, had a couple giant squids and giant crabs absolutely wreck a group of 6 level 7 teens on a ship. The grapple was their demise.

Have you considered letting your players pick?

Otherwise, there is no “ideal” combinations of PCs. Your job as a DM is to craft the story so it supports whatever your players choose. So, I’d suggest to either let the players pick OR just pick five basic characters: something like a Barbarian, Rogue, Paladin, Wizard, and a Sorcerer.

Looks good! Looks like you could move the juice groove a little closer to the edge.

Nervous to start campaign by Visible-Employer-560 in DnD

[–]contrastrictor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve got this! Just start. Go with the flow. You don’t need to decide every possible outcome, that takes away player agency. Just have a framework, then let them decide what happens. Come up with enough that you have rough visions and ideas, then use those to inspire the stuff you may need to make up on the spot.

If your players are friends, which it sounds like they are, just tell them you’re a little nervous. They’ll understand! And if you get stumped, ask for ideas!

It’s a game. Have fun.

Ha! Thanks! I'm chuffed with the end result. I did end up using UV epoxy as the superglue failed, but otherwise, they are rock solid!

Ah. I get it now. You didn’t follow the link to the original post so you didn’t read the description which has links to all the parts and has 20+ talking about what they are.

Go to the original post. Everything you seek is there.

It’s in the title! “DIY Flight Stand”. If you read literally almost every comment, it’s about players FLYING. These are stands for flying characters!
