    Secrets of low-prep homebrew [+]

    Random generators. Lots and lots of random generators. I’d rather take an hour creating a good random generator that will spit out thousands or millions of ideas than meticulously crafting one thing with that same hour of time. Sparks to get the creative juices flowing and riffing on things in...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Or, better yet, “Okay your PC is dead. Please gather your stuff and leave immediately.” I cannot stand whiny players who’re bad sports. If you can’t be bothered to at least try to make the best of bad die rolls then you have no place at the table. The dice will frequently go against you. If your...

    Ravenloft, the Movie

    Horror movies do great. You’d be at cross purposes with horror and D&D. Just like in the recent setting and module. In the last year and into the next we will have Sinners, Dracula, and Nosferatu. Or, better yet, here’s a list of newer vampire movies...

    That’s awesome. I still love coin mimics. Or whatever cursed abomination that was. Something like the coin monster ate other coins.

    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    I’d echo that. Taking advantage of getting the day off in a country with little to no vacation time isn’t “observing the holiday.” Doing the specific holiday stuff or doing your own take on the holiday, sure. We “observe” it in the OP’s overly broad sense, but we don’t observe it in any way...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A lot of ADHDers cover with humor. Getting cranky at him won’t help. If it is ADHD he likely beats himself up about it more than you ever could. I’d suggest starting where you can. Adjust your expectations. Give him more slack and follow conversations up with a written recap via email. Don’t...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Yeah. It’s a real PITA. I can’t remember verbal instructions to save my life. It’s either written down or it might as well not have happened. It’s a working memory issue with the wiring in our brains. However frustrating it is for you, it’s 1000 times more frustrating for us. We have to live...

    Shadowdark Shadowdark General Thread [+]

    I love UDT. You can get some pre-made on Etsy if you don't want to craft your own. Professor DM really should have trademarked that. The only "flaw" I can see with UDT is the explicit centering of one space. This prevents multiple simultaneous fights...unless you have two UDT and sundry props...

    I came across this video a few days ago. Might be useful for someone.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That seems like an incredibly bad idea. Why, yes. I have been reading too many crime novels and watching too many crime films lately. Why do you ask?

    Shadowdark Shadowdark Organized Play?

    Plus both Kelsey and her wife are trying to get pregnant, so Shadowdark might be on the back burner for some time.

    Modules: Made to Read vs Made to Run?

    The other options are using timers, dead experts, or moving the far-away expert into the local area.
