csp_kris, I’ve been adding to my dwarven themed #terrain again – and this time I’ve made some doorways (with interchangeable doors).
As is usual with most of my stuff, it’s all made by gluing paper printouts to bits of cardboard :)
So, here's hoping you like ‘em!
Note that I have a video showing how I’ve put them together here (if you’re interested that is):

bedirthan, Of the multitude of groups bidding for Paramount, the best one for #DnD fans is the one that seems to be winning -- Skydance
bedirthan, To do before today's #DnD session;
- create paper-only version of my character in my Field Notes book
- refine the map of pre-empire Sheljar
- create some Canva templates to use for NPC notecards. My DM had me make the significant crew members of my PC's airxip
Mini NPCs - https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2017/03/09/npcs-for-social-and-exploration-encounters/
Crew of an airxip to minimize - https://fullmoonstorytelling.com/2019/05/04/crew-of-an-large-airxip/
bedirthan, This map is better. It's not good. But it can probably work for now..
bedirthan, Looking back, I like this!
Maybe I can add some labels.
craigofinspiration,
juergen_hubert, The look of horror in the players' faces as they realize what is really going on.
orcusdorkus,
LeviKornelsen, @orcusdorkus - "In an alternate reality where you worked on a 4.5 edition, what would have been different about it?"
clevername, Good question. I think the best example is 13th Age.
Imperor, I'll be showing off some of my TTRPG maps today (03.06) on stream!
We'll discuss their context, why I made them, where I went wrong, how I can improve and what went down in the campaigns I used the maps in.
Come on by today at 19:00 GMT+2 (Berlin) on https://twitch.tv/imperorthefirst

athena_rose922, Well my players killed the Pope in my #DnD #Darkon game. Or more accurately the Pontiff of a fake church that was actually a front for the Kargat. But we were making Pope jokes the whole time.
He also died by getting what a player described as Falcon Punched, came back briefly as a ghoul because he quickly drank the vial of vampire blood he stole back from a character and almost immediately got disintegrated.
athena_rose922, I also like the idea that they can kind of meet Van Richten or more accurately see what he did. Which was put the other boys to rest while he took his own son home so they could have one final day together before he put him down as well.
athena_rose922, Actually no, there is one spirit left. Baron Metus himself so the players can beat up his ghost and possibly dispel him. Because I think the players will enjoy beating up the ghost of a pedophile vampire.
slyflourish,
cradac, @slyflourish one of the only good things to come out of the 5e Spelljammer books is the attitude table. I really like to use it in random Encounter tables.
Some example rolls: 1d6, 1d10, 1d12, 2d6+3, ...
Just take a look at the probability curve. Do you want even distribution? 1d12
More scewed to indifferent? 2d6
Only indifferent and friendly? 1d8+4
bedirthan, This makes me sad. Paramount is flailing. They know people will watch, and yet they're quitting the already purchased #DnD series
kevin, @bedirthan Big changes happening at both companies simultaneously aren't going to help.
bedirthan, @kevin yeah. I think if Paramount was stable they would have pushed forward with a movie sequel too

slyflourish,
PSchweig86, If you’re in Northern Virginia (or don’t mind the drive) the Library of Congress Packard Campus Theater in Culpeper is showing sword and sorcery films Fridays and Saturdays in June. Lord of the Rings. Conan the Barbarian. D&D Honor among Thieves. Neverending Story. Princess Bride. Free screenings in an art-deco-style theater (Alas, no food or drink allowed.) Details in the link.
(Also, Jaws July 4th weekend....)

DnDFanatics, Wizards of the Coast has just revealed the alternate cover for the 2024 D&D "Dungeon Master's Guide," featuring stunning artwork of the spider goddess Lolth from illustrator Lena Richards. https://dungeonsanddragonsfan.com/new-dungeon-masters-guide/ #dnd #dnd5e #dungeonsanddragons #dungeonmastersguide #wizardsofthecoast #wotc
bedirthan,
lfrum, @bedirthan what the what????
bedirthan, @lfrum it looks so damn cool
darjr,
slyflourish, Pick up Lazy DM books and fantastic adventures at the Sly Flourish Bookstore!
bedirthan, Currently thinking about that time that I accidentally inverted #DnD encounter difficulty and the PCs had a wonderful time.
They got to use all their best abilities on the strongest monsters and then they felt weakened facing weak monsters, but still won.
bedirthan, I wrote about this happy accident.
I probably need to write about how to do it intentionally

craigofinspiration,
nickdrawthing, @craigofinspiration consider the humble mini-campaign! Everyone gets excited about an epic 1 - 20 campaign, but setting your sights on a 3-5 session arc can give you a taste without a massive commitment. You can continue it at the end if you like, but you won't feel bad about leaving it behind if it wasn't working.
hpkomic,
Imperor, @hpkomic The PHB says this:
"The Magic of Ki
Monks make careful study of a magical energy that most monastic traditions call ki."
Pretty clear they're considering KI to be a type of magic.
Glupinickname, So, a guy behind the first two "Gamers" movies is trying to crowdfund fourth one as well. To which I say: sure, why not?
I'm usually very skeptical about belated sequels/cash-grabs, but I have fond memories of first two "Gamers" films. They came out long before Twitch streams and YouTube actual plays made #Dnd (relatively) popular again.
So, why not? Let them make another one! #movies #dnd #ttrpg

craigofinspiration,
juergen_hubert, @craigofinspiration Think about your character's motivations. Why do they do what they do?
This includes: "Why do they want to hang out with their fellow player characters?" Player characters don't need to agree on everything, but they should be willing to work together.
darjr, Apparently some YouTubers will get the new players handbook next week. I guess Nerd Immersion mentioned it. #dnd #wotc #dnd2024 #ttrpg #playershandbook
Tim_Eagon,
Tim_Eagon, @taichara @kenmarable IDK, if they were going launch the cartoons again or some other related media, you'd think they would've announced that already to try to synergize the releases. That said, WotC is really bad at that.
Tim_Eagon, @yora I'm not out of touch! I know what a skibidi toilet is!
