    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist Campaign Completed!

    Organizational culture and leadership matter. I wrote the adventures to show the Flint police as being vaguely NYPD-ish: reliable if you fit in as a 'respectable' member of society, but also many of them are willing to be selfish, ego-tripping a-holes against anyone they see as beneath them. A...

    Level Up (A5E) My Zeitgeist supernatural investigators game

    I stumbled back upon this thread through a search for 'urbanist warlock.' Do you have any stories to share from the game?

    how many of powerful beings and/or high-level characters do you think is appropriate in a typical fantasy world?

    My current campaign involves one nation. There are like eight 11th level priests, one 17th level one, and a couple angels kicking around and CR 13 monsters roaming the wastes and a lich gathering an army of the dead the next country over. Seems complex enough.

    WotBS Retconning WotBS for 5e 2024

    Hm. Maybe make it some extra weapon mastery perk instead of being a whole feat? I don't recall what it did specifically, other than letting you grab stuff up to 15 feet away.

    WotBS Fuzzybear's Burning Sky

    Good luck with the finale. And no worries about changing whatever you like to change. Any version of the adventure that involves the party teleporting an army onto a living airship, then rescuing everyone aboard as the ship crashes is going to have my approval.

    D&D General My player did the bag of holding + portable hole thing and got sucked into the Astral Plane. Where is he?

    Another gimmick of the vaknid is that they're drawn to precious metals which they magically turn into thread to be their webbing. So wherever the fighter ended up, he's there along with a few hundred pounds of copper, silver, and gold wire.

    D&D General My player did the bag of holding + portable hole thing and got sucked into the Astral Plane. Where is he?

    EN Publishing's Monstrous Menagerie II has a monster called a Vaknid - a giant spider carapace whose interior is a void. It is able to weave web orbs and throw them across the battlefield. Where they land, a vacuous suction pulls in nearby creatures, and if you get pulled into the orb you can...

    Trailer Andor Season 2 Trailer

    We never see this happen. Clearly at the last second, Mace Windu shows up with one hand. He uses the Force to block the explosion and save Andor and Jyn. Then they go on a spy mission together. Coming in 2027: Rogue Two.

    D&D 5E (2014) How to Make a Bloodborne Hunter?

    But really, what makes a hunter is the prey. I'd recommend speaking with your GM to ensure whatever character you do build, there's something dangerous to hunt that has a bit of depth to its fighting style. Have the GM give it a couple different types of attacks, so you can't just rely on wading...

    D&D 5E (2014) How to Make a Bloodborne Hunter?

    It's sorta hard to convert the vibes of Bloodborne to D&D, because FromSoft games are big on skill and timing and reflexes, and D&D is just luck of the dice with a small bit of tactics. So I'd try to lean into the tactics side of things, and make a character with a variety of reactions, and...

    D&D General What would a Semanticore do?

    The name is a pun, but I'm not sure what to do with it. Ideas?

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist Campaign Completed!

    I've played a few L5R campaigns, all custom-designed, though, nothing published. The setting is delightful, and the cultural tension of having to operate as a member of a family and clan that will suffer consequences if you do stuff that's dishonorable creates interesting play dynamics. But the...

    Captain America: Brave New World - Official Trailer (2025)

    Guardians 3 absolutely has arcs. Rocket in particular. Quill letting go of Gamora. General bonding among the group. It's why it's the only really great phase 4 film, aside from Shang Chi. I agree Ant Man 3 and Doctor Strange 2 barely have any character arcs. Marvels has a bit with the trio...

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist Campaign Completed!

    What are you planning to do now, after ten years with the same campaign? I'm always curious what NPCs players liked and why, and moments that were most meaningful for their characters. And I've never specifically asked this, but I wonder how people would articulate what they thought was the...

    Captain America: Brave New World - Official Trailer (2025)

    The issue is that Sam Wilson has no character arc in this movie.
