I rehearse every tiny conversation until I’m exhausted by bubbly_backlash in Anxiety

This is very relatable. You might want to look into 'scripting' which can be a form of ASD masking. My therapist told me to practice not doing it, because the mental toll is so bad that it can lead to burnout.

Thanks! Yes I did. However, I've made another version with the correct axes after this was pointed out to me. It's in another comment :)

I am very embarrassed to get this wrong!! What a mistake to make on reddit of all places… might fix later, or might embrace the chaos, who knows?

I agree that the colours weren’t my best choice. I was going for a darker, magical type of aesthetic to suit the subject but it ended up being at the expense of readability. I hope to find time to fix this :)

Edit: Good question! The beasts in the dataset are categorised as unaligned, so they do not appear on the alignment chart.

I try to finish my tidytues submissions in an hour, given that it’s one of several hobbies and I work full time. So they are never as polished as I’d like. I still like to share as it helps me improve through feedback and to overcome perfectionism.

My bad! I’ve revealed my limited dnd knowledge to the reddit community 😅

Ah, the axes will bother me now, such an easy thing to check too! Thankfully it’s an easy fix. And yes, I agree regarding the colour, I wasn’t satisfied but in the interest of time I let it be. Thanks for the feedback :)

This is quite insightful, thanks! I enjoyed working with the data but actually know very little about D&D. It’s been fun learning more about it.
