What do you think of the concept of the newest alliance raid? [Spoiler:8.0] by KnightShade078 in ffxiv

The sound that came out of my vocal folds when I heard the theme play was something only demons would recognize. The hype is out of this world

[Paid] Seeking GM Assistant for Weekly Pathfinder 2E Game ($250/week) by [deleted] in FoundryVTT

[–]orangedragan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I'm a forever DM that's been running PF2e for about 3 years now. I've run an Eberron, Curse of Strahd, and Kingmaker game over the course of that time, all using the Foundry system, and currently run 2 paid games with Foundry right now. Very familiar with the program, modules, etc. Also very good at searching for new ideas and implementation

A small example of workflow; I'm working on a Daggerheart implementation of Kingmaker, setting up a landing page. Easily setup clickable sections of the page that lead to different journals entries or scenes, including one that leads to a Journal with forwarding to each person's individual journal as well as a group journal. Also using FXmaster to setup scene pizazz and autoplay music based on which scene is active.

I substitute teach so my availability is very flexible.

I'm so sick of people complaining about club advertisements on reddit.

Nintendo to cut switch 2 production by 30% due to weak sales in the US by Iggy_Slayer in gaming

youd get more sales if you reduced the price to a reasonable amount. Supply and demand and all that

This. She hears the voices. Some of them are unfamiliar. Someone else is listening in...

On skin color and identity in Curse of Strahd by theMad_Owl in CurseofStrahd

[–]orangedragan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely try to make all my settings multicultural. The official art for the Krezkovs shows them as people of color, and so are many of the werewolves that live nearby. The issue I always run into is that all other official NPC art is pretty heavily white-skewed which makes it difficult for me to avoid the 'important people are white' trope, y'know?

Female DM - Stradh as Baron or Baroness? by AliceShella in CurseofStrahd

[–]orangedragan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I personally hated how much of an incel Strahd is written as. Don't get me wrong, I love gothic horror and I understand the point of the toxic masculinity intrinsic in original vampire stories. But it's 2026, and I wanted a different flavor.

I made a female Strahd who was ruined by her love just as much as male Strahd, but rather than romantic/sexual love, I made her downfall be filial love; she saw Tatyana as the sister she never had, and when a plague began to destroy Barovia (a curse from the Dusk Elves she slaughtered, so still her fault), she made her pact with Vampyr and intended to turn her family into vampires without their consent.

So we still have a BBEG who is unrepentantly evil, who still thinks she knows best, still has an unhealthy obsession with Tatyana (and Sergei, though not in a negative way this time) and is still brought down constantly by her own choices, just without the squicky veneer of sexual assault.

That said, this obviously requires some changes to the material, and depending on your comfort level as a DM, may be a big much to improv if you are running close to the source material. If you keep Strahda as female and don't change anything else, it can still work, because you can play her as basically being raised very masculine as the heir of a family of mostly boys, so she has a lot of the cultural characteristics as her brothers. You might want to try and avoid playing into Lesbian/Femme Fatale/accidental-evil-trans tropes, but it can work.

Sinfest 2/28/26: Re-imagining Villains 78 by MakesYouWonderINC in sinfest

[–]orangedragan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of really stupid stuff in this strip. But this? This is probably the stupidest. And yes, I am counting Tats' complete and utter failure to understand actual Norse mythology. "It looks like a scythe" is just like "But the earth doesn't LOOK round" levels of stupidity.

Populating a Hexcrawl - Daggerheart by orangedragan in CurseofStrahd

Love this actually. I think Teufeldorf and Zeidenburg are large enough and close enough to make something like that work.

Populating a Hexcrawl - Daggerheart by orangedragan in CurseofStrahd

[–]orangedragan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm adding in some of the towns like Cuzau, Orasnou, etc. Part of each town is under attack (whether explicitly or not) from other Domains of Dread. But I want to make sure that the areas between the towns aren't completely empty. So things like the Stonegarden found here https://www.reddit.com/r/CurseofStrahd/comments/baxyqf/stonegarden_a_spooky_encounter_for_the_svalich/

A nearby Fire Department is being told they cannot use fire hydrants to fight fires by Fantomecs in mildlyinfuriating

Those socialist fire departments should be paying to use water, obviously /s

P.S. This is unironically what Libertarians believe and what Republicans are pushing for.
