 One of my players cast dragon breath on their pet cat
Posted: 2026-03-30T03:26:57+00:00
Author: /u/sterrrehttps://www.reddit.com/user/sterrre

So a while ago my bard bought a pet cat from a merchant in Skullport. It's mostly just been hanging around, our sorcerer is a forest gnome so they had some conversations but as a cr0 cat it is next to useless in combat with 2hp and 1 damage.

Well while exploring the Sargauth river the party was ambushed by 4 Minotaur skeletons that rose out of the water.

Our forest gnome sorcerer had the brilliant idea of casting dragons breath on the cat, so when it came to the cat and the bards turn the bard held the cat out in front of him and this completely mundane cat exhaled and blasted them all with lightning and then the bard mocked them to death.

it was just a hilarious moment at our table that I wanted to share. Our sorcerer laughed for about 5 minutes straight and almost choked to death on her turn.

 Hot take: I adore when players retire a character mid campaign
Posted: 2026-03-29T20:18:40+00:00
Author: /u/Particular-Bee9846https://www.reddit.com/user/Particular-Bee9846

So I run a pretty extensive campaign currently with some people who I pretty much only know through this campaign, and as a player I have a reputation amongst my friends for retiring my characters mid campaign. They say I kill off my characters, but typically I just have them go on and live their life.

One of my players approached me privately after their arc, and asked me if they could play something different. I asked why, making sure they were enjoying everything and that they just didn't feel unequal in power or something to the rest of the team, but instead they replied "They just saved their hometown, I want them to just live on." To which I replied, "Alright then! Get me your new character sheet by next session!"

I know a lot of people see switching characters mid campaign as being flaky or backing out of a decision, but as a DM and player both, I have to say I adore when a player can step back and realize, "I don't see a reason they want to adventure anymore."

 An NPC commission that was drawn for me [Art][Comm]
Posted: 2026-03-29T12:28:25+00:00
Author: /u/Impressive-Step7261https://www.reddit.com/user/Impressive-Step7261

Recently, I decided to replace the AI-generated images of named NPCs from my Kalimshan home campaign with artwork drawn by a real artist. I’m extremely pleased with the result.

P.S. If anyone is interested, this is artist’s contact information for commissions: https://linktr.ee/frafryali

 [OC] New concept art design for my dark elf tiefling. (wip)
Posted: 2026-03-29T14:48:16+00:00
Author: /u/Nefeli_https://www.reddit.com/user/Nefeli_

Hello everyone, I come to you with a new design for my dark elf tiefling. I had posted a concept design I did for a figurine of him a while back and a lot of people liked it. So I thought of posting a new design I'm making. Yes the tail isn't there, I know ;), it has to be added. I have to decide on the tail design so if anyone had ideas let me know. (should it be forked? Or decorated with according accessories to match the overall look? Another thought is that it had been injured in the past and that could be visible.) I also want to add a sword sheath and not much else because I fear the design will get too crowded.

You can find the previous design I did for him in the comments.

 Bonetail Tiefling [OC][ART]
Posted: 2026-03-30T06:20:30+00:00
Author: /u/Any-Landscape-2946https://www.reddit.com/user/Any-Landscape-2946

Hello everyone! Two days ago I posted a concept about a Tiefling who's bone was a tail, and now here he is! He still needs a name (AFAB but uses He/They/She) and honestly? Have 0 clue what his name should be BUT he's either a Paladin of Conquest or Paladin of Vengeance (maybe if I find a table soon to play as him at the DM might allow me to add the Conquest Tenet that strikes fear into your foes to the Vengeance tenets as that's the main reason why I want him to be a OoC but I digress). I'm really excited to play him!

But...does anyone have any good naming resources for Tieflings? Or since I plan on his mother having been a High Elf (his father being a Tiefling) should it be a mix of an Elven and Tiefling name? I might just give him a fish related name because of his Fishbone earrings and Fish like tail. So many ideas, but I'm incredibly indecisive 😭.

 Myconid? No. OURconid [ART]
Posted: 2026-03-29T17:21:56+00:00
Author: /u/EdibleRayGunhttps://www.reddit.com/user/EdibleRayGun

I saw a Shaggy Mane mushroom in person for the first time, while walking my dog one day, and it was very beautiful. I was instantly inspired to create a Myconid spellcaster. Been sitting on the idea for several months, and finally got around to illustrating it.

i'm still hammering out deets, but i'm thinking the backstory could be that they were grown by a skilled warlock to be a servant, but gained sentience and turned against them with an inherant aptitude for arcane arts. they listened and absorbed all that their master did and said, and processed it from a perspective of intuition and understanding that their master lacked. i'm not even sure what school of magic- maybe conjuration.

I was thinking of calling them "Ergot" or "Ichor", or something, but i'm not exactly married to a name yet. any suggestions? what about that familiar? a lot of the time, I have a completely visual concept come to mind and the context kind of just bleeds out from there.

 Ridiculous 'spells' to cast when using Silvery Barbs?
Posted: 2026-03-29T12:48:14+00:00
Author: /u/Ancestral_Grapehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Ancestral_Grape

The flavour text for Silvery Barbs reads "You magically distract the triggering creature and turn its momentary uncertainty into encouragement for another creature." In our campaign, I've decided to flavour this as my bard verbally beginning to cast nonsensical spells that are so absurd or horrifying in their implication that enemies are momentarily stunned by what the utter fuck he's just tried to cast. Everyone knows "Expand Tapeworm" isn't a spell, but you're still not going to want to take the chance of being hit with it.

Some examples I have so far are:

"Summon invisible ketamine bear"

"Control sphincter"

"Invert Kneecaps"

"Animate Teeth"

"Summon internal bees"

"Induce manual breathing"

"Caramelize Gallbladder"

"Power word kill" (Not possible for a level 3 bard, but still not something you want to hear as you enter combat)

"Greater megacolon" (One particular player in my campaign finds this hilarious, so it's sure to get some laughs.)

Any other suggestions for utterly absurd spells I can pretend to cast to distract our enemies?

 [OC] Fiurberto Plumanegra, Kenku Bard inspired by Argentine folklore
Posted: 2026-03-30T02:21:29+00:00
Author: /u/FredyMcNeillhttps://www.reddit.com/user/FredyMcNeill

I played this character in a Yawning Portal campaign. It was really fun to roleplay him using a gaucho inspired accent.

Fiurberto Plumanegra is a solitary musician, traveling the land with his guitar, turning stories into songs and songs into magic.

More of my work on my profile.
