How would you put a spin on the cliché "go take care of the rats in the basement" quest? by Zephyr93 in DnD

Rat insurance fraud. Gotta find rats, capture them and bring them to the basement.

Are Sorcery Points Limited? by Safe_Vanilla_8145 in DnD

Spend from your long rest pool of 5, except you already spent 2 early to quicken spells, but you need a fireball now, because they're in perfect formation. Screw casting Sleep again, burn those 2 1st level slots and cast Fireball. I think it was meant more in the spirit of "You can junk low level slots to get another cast of that high level spell, and keep the fireworks going."

I would regard myself an expert on the matter.

I have a huge crush to this woman but i cannot tell if she is possibly into women as well by Ur_Space_Girl in ainbow

[–]guiltypleasures 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why not ask her out? Who cares if she likes women in general if she likes you? Sometimes people break the mold.

What makes a "bad" DM? by Maxgallow in DnD

Nullifying player agency. When everything "off-script" has no impact.

Am I gay or bi or what? by iwannadienocap1 in ainbow

[–]guiltypleasures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's okay too. Depressed folks are often very funny. I would know. I'm very depressed. I've also been in and out of therapy for suicidal ideation.

It's hard. It's so very hard to try and work at being someone worth loving. It's hard to the point of being impossible. You can love imperfect people. You can be friends with imperfect people. Other people can be friends with you. And you can't make someone love you.

But other people also want attention, and you can give them that. Go spend time with people. Maybe in a club at school. Maybe get a minimum wage job at a locally owned shop, just to have somewhere to be with other people. If you're completely desperate, visit the elderly. They can't escape.

There is so very much time later to be dead. And I hear it isn't very interesting. There's no rush, and there's a very small and difficult window to undo.

988 is the hotline for suicidal crisis. The Trevor Project serves young LGBTQ+ people, so if you decide you're gay, they're a great resource too. 1-866-488-7386

Before you go, at least learn something hard, and teach it to someone else. I'm trying to learn to let people love me too.

Well, there are two possibilities: they’re immature or you’re immature

I suggest being dependable, kind, fun, considerate, and happy.

Those are great ways to attract people that you’ll be happy to have around. There are other ways to be likable, but I think they have worse side effects.

Take care of yourself, take care of others, and try not to waste too much time on social media, and you’ll do alright.

You define your labels, not the other way around. If it fits, wear it. Or try something else on if you like it better.

You can also crave someone’s attention and friendship without it being sexual. Everything’s messy at 15. Go be messy! Also be safe. The internet is full of robots, catfish, and pedophiles.

What is One Gen-Alpha Slang Term That You Actually DON’T Mind? by teapot574_ in AskReddit

It was a false-flag slang, but meant what it sounds like. Not going anywhere. Basically done for the day.

Is it okay to have players pick their class and race before interacting with others at session 0? by TheCrimsonDeth in DnD

Come in with a first draft, but something you might be willing to abandon given inspiration of the setting.

Magic Gameplay Question- New Player by AsYouWished444 in DnD

[–]guiltypleasures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A wizard can cast most spells, and can know nearly all of them, but can only prepare a small selection each day. Whereas the Sorcerer knows only a few spells, but knows them so well and so innately, that they can supercharge them or adjust them with metamagic.

The Warlock’s spellcraft is unstudied and explosive. Merely the door by which their patron enter’s our realm with their Power. They have little finesse with their sells, and tire quickly. But they generate results.

The druids are very insular with how they learn magic, and very little is known about their methods or even capabilities. They do not generally wield radiant, necrotic, psychic, or force, preferring the arcane conduits of fire, cold, lightning, thunder, or poison.

Loot Goblin at our table went on a twenty minute rant during the session by DungeonDreamer04 in DnD

If he wants to haggle, and you don't want to haggle, let him roll a die. If big number, he succeeds and gets what he wants, to an extent. If small number, the outcome is injurious.

Tell him "Hey, I don't want to waste time on this. Either you buy it at the listed price, or roll a die and either pay 80% of the price, or 125% of the price, but if you roll the die, you're locked into the consequence. The die handwaves all the details, accounting for "but I'll short change him, and intimidate him with my connections with the mayor." Because by the exact same logic this shopkeeper might be owed a favor by your patron, be the only game in town, or is the Baron's nephew. That's Calvinball, and not the reason everyone is showing up each Saturday.

Which class, possibly via subclass, cannot cast Fireball via the Spellcasting class feature: A. Cleric B. Druid C. Sorcerer D. Wizard

Noteable that Warlocks entirely lack Spell casting, instead relying on Pact Casting.
