She's a Tortle Wizard, obviously, wearing only a shell. She just cast Disguise Self.

I just had a big realization that one of the reasons I may have been struggling with this in Ironsworn is that Ironsworn is both a rule set and a setting, so a lot of the prep work has been done. There are already interesting locations (Deep Wild, Hinterlands, etc) with adventure hooks...

Thanks everyone for the advice and anecdotes! I'm more easily envisioning now how to do fun prep with a game like Ironsworn. Next month I'm going to try to put together a group of folks who are new to TTRPGs to play Ironsworn. Before that I'm going to have some fun doing prep about the world...

Hi everyone, I've been mulling over something lately and wanted to collect some thoughts. I've really been enjoying running Ironsworn games for a small group of friends online, and I want to start running it offline as well. For those who don't know, Ironsworn is a game similar to Dungeon...

Fans seem to turn on or off of something with the throw of a switch. Even when they're buzzing, they oscillate back and forth between sides. I'll admit, some fans are cool, but other just seem to blow hot air. Anyways, that's my spin on things. (Sorry)

I had an NPC who would commonly repeat the first three words of whatever he was saying: "Well, well, well..." "Anyway, anyway, anyway..." "Okay, okay, okay..." "Oh no, oh no, oh no!"

What if we didn't say anyone is wrong for their views, and instead understand that different people approach the hobby differently?

🤷 You could start with the most positive thread in the world and there's still be folks who treat it as their personal toilet. You can't control for people wanting to vent their negativity on the Internet. I choose instead to focus on the posts that actually discuss.

Also I left the poll purposefully vague because the real point was to inspire discussion!

I think this might be a good way to look at the data (as of this moment): 43% of voters feel little to no impact (1's). 63% of voters feel a little impact (1 & 2) 21% of voters feel a strong impact (4 & 5) 13% of voters feel a major impact (5's)

I think these are really disingenuous replies that honestly show very little respect for the community you are participating in. What I see from this thread is that people feel differently. I think one can use the poll and posts to build empathy rather than reinforce stereotypes or negative...

So to be clear, you want to know how the rules were changed, but you don't want to buy the books in order to find out, and you don't want to watch any videos or read any articles published by WotC in order to find out.

If you want to know how they changed, I think it's a reasonable expectation that you a) buy it, b) pay for it on Dndbeyond, c) get it from the library, or d) borrow it from a friend. They're not really providing a free service.

What is BoET?

But is it really cool? Or is it just an illuuuuuusion???

Something to consider is that over half the people who participated in the poll I created in the other thread don't feel like WotC much impacts their enjoyment of D&D. If you're noticing a lot of WotC talk mixed in with any D&D discussion, it might be coming from the minority of 4 - 5s on the...

Is this any different than the 2014 spell? I remember using it pretty effectively and this one doesn't look much different.

First as an interact with object, flip through the PHB trying to find the one little rule that you want to exploit this round. Then as a bonus action, ask the DM to explain what all the different scribbles and minis on the battlemap stand for. As an action, roll your d20 off the table. Refuse...

I was cool before Ben Riggs was objected to.
