We were playing blades in the dark, they were sneaking into the back of a warehouse to steal some blood while the rest of the party made a distraction out front, the dog was right there and he didn’t think he’d be able to sneak past it. He could have stabbed it but chose not to I guess. Maybe he thought that would be more cruel?

My players aren’t murder hobos, but the tavern is in a bad part of town and suddenly has a bunch of magic items

That was how it worked in the playtest. The sidebar saying “pick a race you really are and pretend to be half the other race” is gone from the 2024 PHB. Rules as written, you can only be fully one race, this of course doesn’t actually matter as the whole thing is imaginary bullshit but in organised play it’ll sometimes come up.

One time I was just trying to do my money laundering restocking in GTA:O (iirc it was money laundering, it was whatever business you got when the game went free on epic games) and a guy on the flying motorbike killed me for no reason and it wasted a ton of time, eventually I killed him back and he spawned in the desert in front of me so I spawn killed him until he apologized.

I’m not saying what I did was right, I did it in the heat of the moment. But man, that game is really good at making you mad at people.

Also be careful of the shield spike, the dwarf in the diagram would have just stabbed himself

That’s almost 100 whole sessions. It’s honestly too long of you ask me.

Their plan is twofold, firstly they are in service to a lich tried to take over the multiverse and got Strahd’d into a domain of dread and wants out. They sacrifice souls to him. Secondly, they’re necromancers and are trying to create an army of undead for him to lead when he gets back to the material plane. The players aren’t aware of this yet but I’m trying to put that information in front of them

They have their branding which will push people to use their platform. More people using their platform = more content coming from threads. Once they have enough posts from threads that people from other instances are used to seeing mostly threads content they’ll defederate. People will miss the volume of posts and then move to threads.

Just don’t do that lol, let them do wacky hijinks, or play a system without the wacky hijinks

I had a grudge against lego pirates of the caribbean because on the Xbox 360 there was an achievement for completing the first level worth 12g, offsetting my gamerscore until I got the paired achievement worth 88g

My wife plays a tempest cleric in my 5e game, every single outdoor battle starts with her asking about the weather, then upcasting call lightning, using her channel divinity to max out the damage and just melting everything in sight

There’s a ton of really useful stuff on this page and some links that are worth a read, especially Monte Cooks’ consent in gaming pdf

You should try the item piles module for foundry if you haven’t checked it out yet, it shows you in the chat if they’re taking items and gold and you don’t have to finagle around with manually giving them items

This looks like a lost dnd 2e sourcebook

You could probably also throw the fallout ttrpg in there since it has branding of the video game series behind it

Cars can swim a little bit, as a treat.

Im considering offering +1 crit range as well.

Champion fighters in shambles right now

He should look into starting a religion, you can get a solid few thousand years of people talking about you if it does well.
