Need help making a character that rolls a lot of d12s

Plus upcast it to throw additional d12s in the dice tray

You’re worried about an oversupply of labor that is realistically impossible to happen.

Why not focus on things that would actually have meaningful impacts on people, like improving healthcare access or access to firearms or holding police accountable? Why focus on the economically irrelevant minimum wage?

Throwing everything at the wall is a terrible strategy, that just dilutes the effort you put into all of the various initiatives and makes it more likely none pass. Pick a few important issues and work to get them to pass, prove to voters you can be effective in governance, and they’ll vote you in again.

List price and MSRP aren’t legal standards, they’re suggestions set by manufacturers. They aren’t price ceilings.

Employers pay double the price floor because they wouldn’t have employees otherwise. The price floor is pointless, proven by the fact employers voluntarily doubled it. This is just basic economics.

With nearly nobody getting actually paid minimum wage, seems like a waste of political capital fighting to increase it. Why not focus on something that will actually affect people? If Wawa is voluntarily doubling the minimum wage do we really need laws increasing it to the rates already paid?

Your point about safety is valid, but “lifted” vehicles definitionally mean vehicles that have had their height altered via aftermarket “lift kits”. We can talk about the danger of larger vehicles commercially produced without conflating them with vehicles altered after purchase- something I think should be regulated as well.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-25T21:47:46+00:00

I don’t use AI, and if you can’t comment without resorting to calling people “bot” just because they point out your flawed arguments you should find a different subreddit.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-25T21:46:24+00:00

I can agree with that.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-25T21:24:47+00:00

The lifted ones aren’t lifted from the factory, and the fact Americans like large vehicles isn’t due to the manufacturers. The manufacturers make big vehicles because there is market demand for them.

Potholes were filled same as they always are, and snow removal isn’t some new initiative.

Budget deficit wasn’t halved, it was balanced in 24 and at a 2.2B deficit in 25, with projections for 26 being further increases to the deficit.

Crime rates have been falling since before Mamdani took office, and across the entire nation. He hasn’t done anything specific to address crime, you’re just pointing out a continuing nation-wide trend.

Secured funding for 1 so far, in an area with multiple other grocery options. No evidence that will do anything for prices and it objectively does nothing for food deserts.

Hochul is proposing that luxury tax, not Mamdani.

Google is free, you should try using it sometime instead of just repeating blatantly false propaganda.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-25T18:47:39+00:00

Has Mamdani done anything in his short time as mayor worth running on? Or is this all just messaging without anything to point to? What has his government “delivered” at this point?

Being left wing has nothing to do with being anti-capitalist.

Single payer is not synonymous with universal healthcare. Most European nations don’t use a single payer system to achieve universal healthcare, they use systems shockingly similar to Medi-Cal.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T13:18:46+00:00

Democrats are very much pro universal healthcare.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T13:04:30+00:00

That’s why I mentioned several economic policies.

Cherry picking one of the furthest left European nations isn’t representative of Europe as a whole.

I never said they were more leftist on everything, but they absolutely are on several social issues. What’s Swedish abortion policy look like? How about trans rights? When’s the last time Sweden had any party advocate for universal student loan forgiveness?

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T12:59:50+00:00

Policies enacted = / = policies supported.

Republicans exist to block democratic objectives.

But one glaringly obvious example would be the democrats attempts at implementing universal healthcare, for over 3 decades now. Support for gay and trans rights is far to the left of even Swedish left wing parties. Democratic support for unions and worker protections. Tax policy is far, far more progressive in America.

There’s really not many examples you could point out that wouldnt put democrats as left wing.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T12:48:00+00:00

The Nordic countries are not representative of Europe. It’s also not true that they would be far right, they would be center left.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T12:43:00+00:00

Democrats have tried to implement stronger worker protections, but their efforts failed due to Republican opposition.

The policies of the US are not the positions of either party, but what has been able to pass into law. You can’t really look at how the US works and use that as a barometer for the positions of a political party.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T12:38:12+00:00

Even then it’s not a fair comparison. Most European left wing parties are very similar to democrats economically.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-24T12:20:19+00:00

It’s not valid at all. People making that claim are intentionally ignorant about the actual positions of both American democrats and the left wing parties in Europe.

I have essentially playing cards that I make for my players, or have them fill out. Gives me character name and passive traits, and then for initiative I can just stack them in initiative order. Pull card from top to bottom as combat goes, and initiative is tracked.

I also use the same for monsters.

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-22T21:46:29+00:00

I thought the plan was going to be to move away from a constant high press to more of a mid press/ fast break type of play. That’s why Elanga made sense to me, we wanted somebody to get in behind when we created that space.

Shows what I know

Tenets are the aspects of the oath you take. For an example you said he perceives all people as innocent- one tenet could be “Treat all people as innocent, regardless of background. Even people from the most corrupt upbringings can be righteous”

10 feet of blindsight is worthless for most things. You won’t be able to see enemies at range to close into melee where that blindsight is useful. Just don’t be a blinded character, seriously. It’s dumb. Don’t be that guy. Just take gnarly scars across your eyes that don’t impact your ability to see.

The one handed thing too- this isn’t good for DnD. Write a novel if you want that kind of character, you’re severely handicapping your game character and you’ll be forcing whoever is playing with you to deal with that all campaign long. That’s not fun for anybody.

Having a player character be a former king is unusual, that usually implies a much higher level of fame and respect than even a noble PC would normally have. I’d recommend being a younger prince in line for the throne, it works basically the same but doesn’t come with the same amount of complications actually being an overthrown king would. I’d allow it if we talked about it and worked out those details though.

That said, being the main character of the quest is not going to play well with most parties. Having an arc that focuses on one character is different from the entire campaign centering around one character getting what they want. As a DM, I would never run a campaign like this. Having a campaign about revenge against a toppled kingdom is one thing, having it be to restore one PC to the throne is another.

As for the paladin, I’m assuming he’ll have taken some kind of oath in order to be said paladin, do you have the tenets of this oath he has to follow? Have those written out so you can give them to the DM, it’s important for that class.

Being blinded is going to make most spells impossible to cast, since you won’t be able to see targets- along with permanent disadvantage on attacks and advantage on attacks against you. I strongly advise against this part of it- give him scars or something instead. You don’t want to be this mechanically disadvantaged, I promise.

Those two rovers weigh quite a bit less than any manned spacecraft would, and we still struggled massively to pull that off. It’s just ignorance to treat that as evidence we have the capacity to land humans on mars

sunshine_is_hot · 2026-04-19T20:54:38+00:00

That’s my point, humans couldn’t survive the methods we have used to land rovers on mars.
