    D&D 5E (2014) Character Creation- How to Apply Auction Techniques

    When the topic of stat drafts come up, there is inevitably one or more people who object on principle and can only think of it as competitive, but while it can certainly be played that way, I have never run a stat draft that was not cooperative to some degree and where everyone didnt get stats...

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    That sounds like an amazing adventure/encounter! And it also make me think, perhaps too obviously, of one of my favorite poems (by anonymous): Westron wynde when wyll thow blow the smalle rayne downe can Rayne Cryst yf my love were in my Armys And I yn my bed Agayne Or transcribed into...

    D&D General Your last adventure in photos.

    Scenes from last Friday's session and here is a link to a Instagram reel of my setting up the table before the game started: HOW I RUN IT on Instagram: "We left off our previous in-person session mid-encounter. Traveling overland from the Penzig Villages to Hommlet-at-Hookhill the Prophecized...

    Shadowdark Good starting shadowdark adventure to use with kids?

    This convo makes me wonder if I could get away with running a truncated version of B3 - Palace of the Silver Princess.

    Shadowdark Good starting shadowdark adventure to use with kids?

    I may be running a short “D&D” (I’ll use shadowdark) for a group of kids ranging from 8 to 12 during a big family camping trip (my guess is there will be up to 7 of them, but as few as 2). Anyone have recommendations for an adventure? I am looking for something that is ideally classic-feeling...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I recently learned on this very site that not being informed on a topic in no way invalidates your opinion about it.

    I can’t believe I scrolled through the rest of that thread just to see if @Snarf Zagyg would post again. 🥸

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    My least favorite is a spin-off of that series in which someone else more reasonable comes in to defend the position of the type of poster you are describing or provide a POV that attempts to understand where they are coming from (both done in good faith) but the poster in question...

    while not exactly “cheapskate,” in terms of value that 200 ft roll of one inch gridded paper cannot be beat. It should literally last you at least a decade. One of these days when I am bored I will lay out all the sections of it I have cut and used so far and measure. I acquired this (from...

    Staedler broad tip FTW, but Crayola washable markers work in a pinch (and I like them b/c they are very broad and good for thick walls or coloring areas in). Staedler used to make "very broad" markers (can't recall if that was the actual size name) but I have not found one for sale anywhere...

    D&D General Does anyone else title their D&D sessions?

    If you ever want someone to help brainstorm more such titles, let me know. I’d be happy to try to help.

    Alternatively, go ahead and use those colors (I have for 30+ years) and be sure to clean up as you go or as soon as the session is over. I find those invaluable for drawing brush or fire or green slime or magma, etc. I also use blue for water and brown for wooden structures.
