Just_a_Fan he/him Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 I am hosting a DND campaign on discord.

Eluvianii he/him Posted August 11 Report Share Posted August 11 One of our GMs likes to joke about casting fireball where it hits the whole party. You've also probably seen the memes about casting it in small rooms, and so on. Today one of the players actually did it. He cast fireball on a single weak enemy in a small room, we all failed the save. One of the players fell unconscious and the one who cast it died from it. He was later revived by divine shenanigans but it was still funny in the moment. It was very stupid and very fun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The cheeseman Sola Scriptora Posted August 11 Report Share Posted August 11 What are y'alls thoughts on 5.24e? I like a lot of the changes, except the ones to Ranger and Paladin. Haven't looked over Rogue and Monk yet, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just_a_Fan he/him Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 (edited) In a one-shot I'm making, there is a group of "eeveelutions" that are actually some sort of evil entity in disguise, ex. a Vaporeon that's actually a siren. They all die painful and horrible deaths, because apparently I unconsciously predicted these characters from an NSFW comic. Thus the "all die horrible deaths" part. Because if this tale MUST have a moral, it will be an anvillicious "naughtyness bad". The only two characters that aren't named after one of the 7 deadly sins, well, one gets her heart pulled out of her chest and force fed to her, the other is Burrito's evil twin. Yes, party has to beat the crem out of him for plot reasons. Other notable deaths include: being chainsaw'd by a sleepwalking demon slayer, or being eaten alive by an aborrent abomination of Eevee and eeveelution corpses stitched together into a reanimated suicune. ("I call him 'gorecune'" -cheery NPC that made said abomination) Sorry, mods, for this post. Edited August 13 by Just_a_Fan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stormfather He/Him Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 I just posted an SU about a capture the flag game RP inside DnD, and if any of y’all’s would be interested, that’s be great. (Also do any of you know about The Kraken’s Corner on Dndbeyond? Because that’s where I got this idea. All hail king Dragonslayer.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just_a_Fan he/him Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 I made a possible one-shot, or a campaign idea, where the party is thrown into a gladiator arena by some bored deities, and are forced to fight dragons from across the multiverse. these range from obscure dnd dragons, (purple dragons, anyone?) dragons from video games, dragons from movies, and even book!toothless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stormfather He/Him Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 34 minutes ago, RoyalBeeMage said: yes but how would it work? that sounds intresting. It would be a large arena with two teams, and probably level 3 characters. There would be some NPC’s in the arena and some monsters, and if you can grab the flag and bring it back to your team’s base you’d win. (I’d make a rule system but my cousins are visiting rn so I need to get off my phone.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just_a_Fan he/him Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 (edited) another idea: your run of the mill fantasy-creature-school-based campaign, but the party is a group of investigators trying to find who committed arson at a packed ball. the red herring is some cute fire doggo, but it's actually the electric bird. you end up beating up zap-bird for trying to forcefully marry the fire doggo. or in other words, my tdpmd&d short-shot, but the dm does not want to get smitten by copyright.

Pineap-spider Pineapple/Spider Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 Hey! I just joined my first DnD campaign as a illusionist wizard. I've got some friends I'm playing with, but I was wondering what advice y'all have. Like, what spells should I get? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely recommend phantasmal force, it’s extremely useful. You’ll want a basic damage dealing spell, like burning hands, and a damage cantrip or two are always useful; I like ray of frost and fire bolt. Minor illusion is a good cantrip for an illusionist. Disguise self is useful, especially if you have high ish charisma and/or proficiency in deception. Hypnotic pattern is rather high level, assuming you start a first, but it can shut down an entire encounter. A defensive spell like blur, mage armor, or mirror image will likely be useful in combat. This list is under the assumption that your goal as an illusionist is to illusion to solve most of your problems. If your party is more combat focused, you’ll want more combat spells. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii he/him Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 Tfw your friend is a werewolf and starts attacking you, so you try to get her to 0 hp just to neutralize her, but you score the single best hit in the campaign so far, a double critical doing the equivalent of 5 hits, and kill her. I feel bad. Why can't I get hits like this against enemies? I've spent the whole campaign missing shots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 Hey, I'm pretty new to dnd but I just started playing a strixhaven campaign with my friends and wanted to get some new dice!

Anyone have any suggestions for cool dice places? Preferably budget friendly Chessex sells a pound of dice (which is 80-100 assorted dice), for about 30 bucks. In addition to the assortment it always includes one complete seven-piece* set of dice, just in case. They also have normal dice sets for $12. Crooked Tavern has a LOT of super cool, seven-piece sets for around ten dollars. Dice Envy also has a ton of really cool dice sets, but theirs come in tens, so they are just a touch more expensive than Crooked Tavern. And because of the way their website is set up, you have to be careful that you're ordering a whole set, and not just one dice. Your local B&N as well as table-top shops will also have a bunch of different dice sets, so browse around there as well. *a standard dice set will almost never be less than seven pieces: a d4, a d6, a d8, a d10, a percentile dice, a d12, and a d20.

Immortal Platypus Posted September 16 Report Share Posted September 16 (edited) I just joined a new campaign, and I am both excited and terrified. My character is a warlock whose patron is the god of lies. I can't be too specific, because I'm pretty sure that people in my party are on here, and it would kind of be really bad if they knew, but it's gonna be an adventure. We have mostly spellcasters, and very little healing (only a druid, my aasimar race trait "healing hands" and a paladin). It will be an adventure. a friend and I made our character sheets together with the full purpose of just surviving. If we get caught in an ambush, we'll probably just wipe Edited September 16 by Immortal Platypus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
