    ZEITGEIST Aartvb's Zeitgeist

    I'd forgotten I'd used those names. Lester, Dustin, Emily, and Anna were classmates of mine in middle school. I wonder if they'll Google their names some time and wonder what the hell this is all about. Good luck with the huge monster that is Cauldron-Born.

    D&D 5E (2024) 13 Attacks a Round the Most You Can Get?

    The way you get the most attacks per turn is money. You hire a lot of peasants and give them crossbows. Tell them to ready actions to shoot when you tell them.

    WotBS Tolamaker's Burning Sky

    On your 'diversify your encounters' note, I had a bittersweet version of that yesterday when I had the climax of the campaign I've been running for a year. The short short version is that the priest queen villain was trying to bring Noah's ark to her ziggurat so she could draw upon the power of...

    Showdowdark Class Design: The Paladin! Live with Kelsey Dionne.

    I ran a Pathfinder campaign where the whole party was paladins. It was really great, with wonderful clashes of ideology of what it means to be 'good.' And yeah, necessarily, everyone had a different vibe. There was the artist who wielded a glaive like an oversized paintbrush, but whose focus...

    WotBS Aartvb's Burning Sky

    Priceless. This makes me rather sad. I hope the new player had a good time.

    ZEITGEIST Gunslingers in Zeitgeist (4e)

    It's been a while. What determines how many grenades they get?

    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...

    lol, I am amused by that.

    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...
