    Five hours pass... nothing happens. (Just kidding! The above came about as a joke during the game... :D) Rescuing sheep from Ettins. Heroes!

    Canada Worldbuilding

    Hahaha... Well, I think it's only protected under the circle of trademark vs the veil of copyright, so as long as it isn't on your cover you might be fine to open that summoning circle... ;)

    Interesting idea! Just as long as it doesn't harm any lynxes in those boreal forests. ;)

    D&D General D&D Editions: Anybody Else Feel Like They Don't Fit In?

    I think I did... there were a number of their surveys/playtest surveys I responded to during that time (due to the 2024 playtest packets) and so I likely did that one too. :) Yeah, it's hard sometimes to know what the design parameters of the surveys are, or how to interpret the questions...

    Are there any submarine based RPGs?

    This is what I love about the RPG space: so many games for so many genres and play environments. I dove into this thread being in the dark of this particular kind and now I've learned there's a school of submarining RPGs swimming around. Now I want to take a gander at Blue Planet to see what...

    Are there any submarine based RPGs?

    I've run adventures that take place in submarines (both functioning and wrecks), but I don't know of any RPG specifically geared to ongoing submarine operations. :)

    Stars Campaign Fork - Do you use canon characters in your RPGs?

    I said yes, but in all the SW games we've run across the years I think it's only been once in my current campaign (Dawn of Defiance) where the characters are directly working for Senator Organa. (For which he's not a really obscure figure, but he's also not one of the prime characters, so...

    D&D General D&D Editions: Anybody Else Feel Like They Don't Fit In?

    I've been playing AD&D for 36+ years, starting with 1e. Cut my teeth on the classic modules. I've played consistently the entire time. Do not feel left out nor like I don't fit in.

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Here's a few of the things that bounce around in my mind when I muse on the impacts of these new generative models: a) Though movies didn't fully take out theatre, and TV didn't fully take out movies, or how photography didn't fully take out painting, and etc, neither will generative models...

    Success comes from phat beats! Mystery solved: temporally phasing astronaut.

    On This May The 4th, Let's Celebrate Star Wars TTRPGs. +

    It's been about a year since we paused our Dawn of Defiance campaign (running it using my own Aurora RPG engine system, working great), but I'm aiming to get us back to it in the next month or so! Also played Scum & Villainy a couple of months ago at a con. Was a fun adventure (though...

    GMing Mistakes You’ve Made in the Past

    A handful of GMing mistakes I have made: Getting everyone's backstories, working them into the campaign, writing up a personalized one-page intro for each player to read just as the game begins that brings them up to speed and brings their characters to the story, ready to dive in for some...

    GMing Mistakes You’ve Made in the Past

    That's really good to know that "contribution" can have a different connotation across the pond. I can watch out for that now, thank you! :)

    GMing Mistakes You’ve Made in the Past

    From my experience, I'd expand that to say that with everyone who aims to join the group, and broaden the question: Are they willing to contribute to the group and it's playstyle? If so, cool! They don't need to be as invested as everyone else, they don't need to contribute the most, this...

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Aye, I was thinking mostly from the perspective of transferring over a gross pose (either through i2i or control net) rather than details or intricate bits. Maybe Flux is a bad example/base model to use, unless there are some variations of it that generate really good at poses/anatomy.

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    Adding to what @Kichwas said, from what I can tell bing.com/create is the Dall-E 3 purely text-based one so you can't feed it an image or edits or tell it to take the previous image and iterate on it, but you get 15 fast credits per day before it switches to slow mode. Hmm, looks like there's...

    Neat, was there a specific art style specified with these?

    D&D General Race Has No Mechanics. What do you play?

    I follow in a similar vein. For a species' 'mechanical' bits I want them beefy: dragon breath, flight, resistances, turning temporarily to stone, blasting shards of metal in a radius, shapechange, shadow walk, that kind of thing. Things that really denote the unique qualities of the...

    Universal Fan Fests Reveals Massive Xanathar Puppet

    Alas, if this was closer (it would be a ~7h drive) I'd be keen on checking it out for fun and hanging out with fellow ENworlders! Enjoy everyone, and please give us a visit report! :)
