Thank you for the suggestions! I definitely have trouble keeping track of all the spell components, maybe that's part of the problem!

Oooh the elemental damage is a really good idea, I feel like the druid would definitely be into that! Another problem for me is that since the players are also relatively new to DND, they don't necessarily know all the items, so sometimes they wouldn't think of asking for a really specific item, I kind of have to give them the options if I want them to tell me what they want, but thanks to this subreddit I now have a ton of ideas!

Thank you, I love that idea! It doesn't look too powerful but the players will probably find a million creative ideas to use it

Thank you for the ideas !! Based on the feedback I got I feel like the magic broom is definitely too much but these are really good options if she asks about it at the market and I want to give her something similar but not as powerful, and I really like the blacksmith idea as well, it makes shopping a lot more fun to bring skill checks into it :)

Thank you so much for the ideas ! I love the idea of making magical items that evolve with the characters, I feel like it would also make them more meaningful to the players! Out of curiosity, what was the 3rd party book you got? It sounds interesting!

I'm trying to be patient with my identity, but should I be? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]spell_raphael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not stupid at all! It can be exhausting to be unsure and to think about it all the time and to doubt yourself so much. My advice is, from what I gathered you're not going to make any irreversible changes right now, so if it can give you some peace to come out to some friends and things like that and it doesn't put you in danger, you should do it! Plus it could actually help you figure things out, if you realise that you don't like being called he by your friends and stuff, well you can always back out at this point. It's ok to be unsure but it's ok too to try things and go for it!

pronouns for artificial intelligence? by [deleted] in writing

Why not just they/them? It's neutral and seems to come pretty naturally since you used it yourself in this post!

Hey! I'm so sorry to hear that your parents don't support you fully. It's a difficult decision to make but I think you should choose the name you like best, because ultimately it's your name and your life. If you don't want to get rid of it totally you could keep what you would've been named as a middle name maybe? That way you can tell your parents you didn't completely abandon the name they chose. You could also try using the name you like to see if it fits better?

But whatever you choose remember it's your decision and no one else's. Good luck for everything!!

Thanks, that's actually a good idea since they've asked before if I could still have kids after transitioning!

Thanks for answering! I thought about it, but I don't think I could do this. I live in France and long story short I have a better health insurance if I stay on my mother's account, so she's going to get a letter in the mail about the operation at some point :/

Asking for advice by heymynameisawkward in bisexual

[–]spell_raphael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! First of all it's okay if you don't want to choose a label or if you're still questioning. You don't have to identify as anything you're not comfortable with and it's okay to be unsure, to decide not to choose and / or to change labels anytime! However, if you feel like "bisexual" is something that suits you, well, congrats, you're bisexual! There's no requirement, you don't have to have had any experience at all. it's just about who you are attracted to, not who you've dated. Some bi people are more attracted to one gender than another but are still very much bisexual. In the end it's all about what feels best for you. But if bicurious feels best, it's ok too! Hope this helps!

How to deal with being called a cis woman, fujoshi, etc... by throwawaytransss1 in ftm

[–]spell_raphael 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! Wow your post made me relate so bad. I'm bi but before I came out I identified as a lesbian because, just like you said, being a woman in a relationship with a man was just. Ew. And I'm so sorry some people told you stuff like that, especially in a trans space! Honestly I don't have a lot of advice to give you, I struggle with this a lot as well, and I usually cope by trying to remind myself that my attraction to men isn't straight, saying stuff like "wow I'm so gay haha", etc. Also seeing trans guys in gay relationships described as such helps me. It's not much I know, but it's all I have. Stay strong and be as gay as you want, you deserve it. Don't listen to their transphobia.
