    Advice for setting up a Discord server for running TTRPGs

    TableTop Audio have nearly 400 10 minutes ambient sound files you can download as mp3s. I use Kenku FM to play them through a Discord bot, but you could use anything that can play local sound files.

    ZEITGEIST List of Pop Culture References in Zeitgeist

    I couldn't see this Doctor Who reference mentioned anywhere already... While working on a Fantasy Grounds conversion of the 4E hardcover version I noticed the Adventure 5 "Meanwhile in the News" articles are headed: Doctor / Hue / Baker / Tenant / Smith / Reunion (Actors Tom and/or Colin...

    ZEITGEIST Saxby's actions

    Yeah I always struggled a bit with Saxby's actions in Adventure 3. She's supposed to be a smooth political operator, but then she basically throws it away to have the B-team defend her from the party and flees the city.

    D&D 4E Rambling thoughts about D&D 4th Edition

    That whole daily item limit thing was errata-ed away anyway and replaced with the item rarity rules.

    ZEITGEIST Using Midjourney image AI to imagine Zeitgeist

    Just to elaborate on use of the prefer set option, here are 3 images for Rutger Smith using the same prompt [Che Guevara, 40 years old, dressed in a naval uniform, neatly trimmed beard, Victorian era, on the deck of a sailing ship] but with different pre-defined styles - charcoal, ink and...

    ZEITGEIST Using Midjourney image AI to imagine Zeitgeist

    Yes it's crazy how quickly this advances. Things I'm still struggling with are: getting inhuman skin tones for Roland Stanfield getting Merton Goncala to wear a helmet. MJ has very specific ideas about what an orc looks like

    ZEITGEIST Using Midjourney image AI to imagine Zeitgeist

    Margaret Saxby - I used Robin Wright as the model as there are a lot more pics of her to train MJ compared to Elizabeth Gracen. Can't for the life of me get a short hairdo - I suspect it conflicts with the Victorian era setting. (Also I just noticed she's bi-eyed). She's not mad , she's just...

    ZEITGEIST Using Midjourney image AI to imagine Zeitgeist

    So I too have been bitten by the Midjourney bug, creating character portraits for Zeitgeist, so I thought I would post them here in case they can be of use. I used a lot of the prompts upthread as the basis for several of them, so thanks for that. Later on I also used /prefer option set to...

    D&D General Best Online Platform for 4e Game?

    Agreed. I went on this same journey about 6 months ago, and ended up going with Fantasy Grounds. I tried Roll20, but found the manual construction of powers for players & NPCs very time consuming, even with macro builders. I also found the storage and automation options quite limited in the...

    Nentir Vale/World of Nerath Information/Links?

    A couple more I haven't seen mentioned yet: Dungeon #186 - Backdrop: Mistwatch (town on Lake Wintermist) Dungeon #193 - Enemies & Allies: All That Glitters (writeup of Fallcrest NPC, Catseye) and of course a bunch of published and Dungeon mag adventures are nominally set in and around the...

    D&D 4E Dark Sun 4e element description?

    Something else I just found that you might be thinking of is 'Winning Races - Genasi of Athas' from Dragon 396. It describes four new elemental manifestations for Dark Sun genasi: Ember Magma Sand Sun

    D&D 4E Dark Sun 4e element description?

    The only 4E reference I could find was in Ashes of Athas adventure '5-1 The Descent' - it had a puzzle for the party to identify all the elements and paraelements and the negative quasielements. This in turn was based on 2E material from 'DSS2 Earth, Air, Fire and Water' and 'Dragon Kings'...

    D&D 4E Trying to Decide on Module Order for a 4e Campaign

    Similar to some other suggestions here, for a Nentir Vale/Harkenwold campaign I would go: [1-3] Some Assembly Required (Dungeon 208) (more traditional dungeon crawl) or [1] HS1 The Slaying Stone (sandboxy) [2-5] Reavers of Harkenwold (DM's Kit) (something to lead into MaGA - HS2 Stonefang...

    What are some quick low level adventures?

    "Prey for Smiley Bob" by Chris Perkins from Dungeon 205. Simple introductory adventure. "Some Assembly Required" by Jobe Bittman from Dungeon 208. Kobold Dungeon with about 10 encounters, set in the same area (Harkenwold in the Nentir Vale). "Reavers of Harkenwold" from the 4E DMs Kit. Highly...

    Help Me Remember That Encounter

    This sounds exactly like 'A Picture Tells 1000 Words: Spurned' from Level Up Magazine, Issue 1 (A 4E magazine by Goodman Games). The party are hired by a philandering merchant's wife to be undercover bodyguards, while at the same time she hires a hit squad to kill him with an 'escaped' Rage...
