I can only assume they will use the exact outcomes I had on my first Baldur's Gate 3 playthrough, such as when I turned Astarion into a vampire lord then immediately broke up with him.

I think this is true, in the sense that when you decide how your gods work you should consider how satisfying it would be to play a devotee of said god. If you don't take that step, you're probably writing a book instead of making a TTRPG campaign setting. There's a 3P book for Dragonlance...

This is exactly how my cleric character describes himself. He believes clerics and communication between gods and mortals are essential for gods to have any meaning at all, or to be defined as gods. Gods are immortal, but by looking through their clerics' eyes, they maintain an understanding of...

Another quick 2024 monster report too: 2024 gargoyles have the Flyby trait which allows them to avoid opportunity attacks while flying, and the party was at low resources when they encountered Lost City's room with 2 gargoyles. Said gargoyles downed 2 out of 3 players. While the remaining...

My group is coming up on the end of The Lost City. I am very curious as to how they will feel about this module's non-ending. Today one of my players provided me with some lovely art of how she thinks it's going to end: A prophetic work really, since escaping Zargon involves flattering him...

Uh oh. 😂 That said, it was probably necessary for this show. From what I have read of Stormlight Archives, absolutely not necessary there.

My friend who is not an Apple watcher but who does like Sanderson asked about SFX quality on Apple and I decided this scene from Foundation was the best for demonstrating (best of what I could find on yt anyway): As I told him, Foundation has many beautiful scenes of spaceships/planets getting...

I've played a grung 🐸 and a homebrew undead species so I guess I need an Other category.

2024 Cleric has Sear Undead at Level 5. Whenever you use Turn Undead, you can roll a number of d8s equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1d8) and add the rolls together. Each Undead that fails its saving throw against that use of Turn Undead takes Radiant damage equal to the roll’s total...

I watch a lot of GTAV roleplay, and one of those streamers uses a device called a GoXLR to do vocal effects sometimes. He can do deep and demonic voices that are still intelligible - I find some of his high pitch effect voices annoying, but lots of people like them so that may be me. And so...

I've endured someone using it a few times for demons and the like and it's incredibly annoying at best and unintelligible at worst. edit: Mostly it's the worst version btw - where the person screeches for a minute, then we have to ask for every single word to be repeated without the voice...

My first character ever was a grung, which I picked because I thought they were cute. I made her the smallest she could be (2 ft tall?) because I didn't really like the idea of a BIG frog. Her contribution to the human BBEG fight at the end of our first campaign was shoving her arm in the...

When I saw that Priory of the Orange Tree romantasy call-out, I knew I merely had to wait to see "Dragonlance is romantasy". I'm here for it. :D

My group has 3 players and we play if we have 2. We are playing Quests From the Infinite Staircase and the book says Nafas (the genie questgiver) can have a servant such as a mephit made of stardust. I combined this with the concept of "Carlton the Doorman" which Jasper used in his run of this...
