 [oc] Dressed up as shadowheart from bg3 🗡️
Posted: 2026-08-05T18:10:35+00:00
Author: /u/chello_coshttps://www.reddit.com/user/chello_cos

So I dressed up as shadowheart for a convention!

Still sort of new to the fandom, i’ve heard about this game for a while and did my research on the lore (I always have to know more about a franchise before engaging with it’s base and the game/show itself). My friends who’ve played the game say i embody her in a way personality wise so i gave it a go. I do other cosplays if this one interests you. I hope i did the elf princess some justice 🖤

edit: tysm for the positive feedback everyone, trying to get back into the cosplay game and this has been quite the experience. i feel very welcomed here <3

 I have spent 6 years and over 10,000 hours working on this project so far. It is a 3D virtual tabletop that lets you play D&D online through Steam with your friends. It's FREE to download and try if you are interested. I would love any feedback you might have! More info in comments. [OC]

One of the biggest hurdles for 3D VTTs is the time it takes to actually build a nice-looking map. I wanted to fix that.

With the new Steam Workshop integration in Game Master Engine, you don't have to build anything if you don't want to. You can just:

  1. Browse the in-game library for whatever you need (Tavern, Dungeon, Forest).
  2. One-Click Download to add it to your own library instantly.
  3. Populate & Play by dropping minis and rolling 3D‏‏‎ ‎dice.

It’s all about‏‏‎ ‎getting‏‏‎ ‎to the‏‏‎ ‎"playing"‏‏‎ ‎part of D&D faster. You can also upload your own creations to share with the rest of the community!

I've been a dev on this for 6 years, and seeing‏‏‎ ‎what people‏‏‎ ‎are‏‏‎ ‎already building in the Workshop is honestly the coolest part of the project so far.

Steam Early Access (60% Off): https://store.steampowered.com/app/1451680/Game_Master_Engine/

Discord Link: discord.gg/gamemasterengine

I'll‏‏‎ ‎be‏‏‎ ‎around all day to answer questions about the engine or how the Workshop works!

 [OC] [ART] My character Naz!
Posted: 2026-08-05T17:33:21+00:00
Author: /u/twatishartshttps://www.reddit.com/user/twatisharts

Hello, just coming on to share some of my art here, this is my character Nazuri, he's a halfelf rogue who does any job for cash to fuel his terrible lifestyle, he's a bit complicated but loveable, never to be trusted though. He's constantly on the verge of a redemption arc but never quite reaches it.

He's talented with his hands much to everyone else's dismay, and is constantly on the run from guards, ex lovers, towns people, most anyone he comes into contact with.

I'm an artist who shares mostly on insta @twatisharts if you are curious :) I take commissions !

Edit: His name is NAZURI, NAZ for short. Sorry for putting a exclamation mark at the end, I can assure u his name isn't Nazi he isn't a Nazi and he would literally murder Nazis. Don't get ur panties in a twist pleaaaaaaaase

 [OC] [Art] Laestis, a kalasthar (and reborn) swashbuckler rogue / hexblade warlock
Posted: 2026-08-05T14:43:51+00:00
Author: /u/Sygdomhttps://www.reddit.com/user/Sygdom

Hey hello! It's been a while since I posted here, but I wanted to share this art I did of one of the player characters in the campaign I DM, which as gone for about +150 sessions iirc.

And Laestis has been through a lot during all this time! From starting as a shy noble inheritor with some haunted sword to what she is nowadays (even if the anxiety stayed). She made her warlock pact with a watcher (the setting's equivalent to a quori from kalashtar), who would eventually be the one to bring back Laestis from the dead when she met her untimely end. She has still not had much time to cope with the whole being a reborn bit of things, but at least she got one cool wing out of the ordeal?

(Let's hope she can eventually get a second one, just so we stop making Sephiroth jokes about it!)

 Is Find Familiar really strong or am I missing something ?
Posted: 2026-08-05T15:21:30+00:00
Author: /u/Pitiful_Natural_450https://www.reddit.com/user/Pitiful_Natural_450

All my caster players have this in their spell list : it allows them to scout ahead for any trap, enter locked room (small spider going under the door), gives them Blindsight (Bat), or simply use the Help action every turn in combat to give them permanent advantage on Attack Rolls or Ability checks (which is honestly crazy for martial oriented half-casters).

They don't even need to use spell slots on it since it's a ritual...

Am I missing something or is this an auto-include, borderline gamebreaking spell available to (almost) everyone at lvl 1 ?

I'm all for players finding creative solutions to a problem, but right now every brainstorming in my party boils down to "which Familiar will be available to solve this issue".

 [OC] [Art] Latest goblin sculpt! Nip, the Merc
Posted: 2026-08-05T22:07:28+00:00
Author: /u/TG_minishttps://www.reddit.com/user/TG_minis

This one is based off concept art made by my wife VelwynArt! She gave me the idea to make a lil goblin with a big sword and even helped me with her outfit design. We also found these really cool boots on Pinterest that we knew we had to include in her design :p

I'm planning on using her as a hireling or as a PC for a one shot. Fighter is the obvious choice but what subclass do you think best suits her?

 What Do You Call Someone Who Is An Anti-Dice Goblin?
Posted: 2026-08-05T17:30:51+00:00
Author: /u/roses_and_daisieshttps://www.reddit.com/user/roses_and_daisies

So I just got back from my time at first Gen Con and my friends were (lovingly) making fun of me for not wanting any new dice.

I have been playing for almost a decade and currently DM a long running campaign and DM or play a few one shots here and there, so I play pretty often. I own the following dice:

  1. My original set in blue, a super basic 7 dice set (though it’s missing a d4). It was free.
  2. An 11-dice set I won at a convention a few years ago which came in a little bag.
  3. A d20 that has Fuck You for the 20 and Fuck Me for a nat 1.
  4. A d20 that looks like a bee with liquid core dice with a stinger for a nat 1.

That’s it. As far as I’m concerned that is all I need. Tbh, it’s more than I need since I have 5 D20s. This weekend I got a free diceset with another purchase at Gen Con and immediately gave it to my Dice Goblin friend/player in my campaign. They loved the dice! But we can’t decide on what to call me. I’ve heard of a Dice Elf who has a carefully curated collection, but my dice sets weren’t really carefully curated. Most of my dice were free. & except for the bee D20 they’re not particularly fancy.

Just thought this would be a fun discussion since it’ll be a year till the next Gen Con!

 My players made T-shirts of my face and wore them to session.
Posted: 2026-08-05T17:54:17+00:00
Author: /u/WhoIAmIsSamIAmhttps://www.reddit.com/user/WhoIAmIsSamIAm

Just a funny moment that I thought would make others laugh. My party and I had a group trip at our state renaissance festival over the weekend which also included a night of DnD. This was a special trip since some of my party lives out-of-state, so it was our first session to have everyone fully in-person.

Before starting session, I had dashed upstairs to my room to quickly change and get into something more comfortable. All my friends had done the same.

I come back down and all my friends are seated in the living room. As DM, I hadn’t pay them much mind as I was riding through some tunnel vision to make sure everything was set up and good to go for session. It wasn’t until I stood up to double check that my laptop was plugged in did I glance around and see all 5 of my players with the biggest shit-eating grins.

All of them were wearing purple T-shirts (my favorite color, a purposeful choice) with the funkiest zoom in of the dumbest expression on my 17-year-old face. Apparently, they had done a bit of a deep dive on Facebook through my old tagged photos.

I don’t watch a ton of Critical Role, but I am aware that this is a signature move by Sam Riegel. However, I certainly did not think it would happen to me. 😂

I immediately start cracking up, almost dying on the floor laughing. They definitely got me and apparently had a separate group chat going for months in preparation. However, they refused to show me the chat as apparently they have other plans. 😂

A kind warning to DMs: you plot against your players so don’t assume they don’t plot against you.

 Ran a one-shot for my wife and my 8-year-old daughter. My kid cried three times and I've never been prouder to be a DM.
Posted: 2026-08-04T21:52:42+00:00

DMing for my family. Two players. I ran them at level 5 so they'd have enough toys to feel powerful: my wife rolled up a Trickery Cleric, and my 8-year-old daughter played a Wild Magic Sorcerer (she picked it entirely because "chaos sounds fun," which, correct).

I ran The Wild Sheep Chase because it opens with a talking sheep and I figured that was the right energy for my kid's game.

It started exactly as goofy as advertised. The half-orc enforcer cornered them for the sheep, and my daughter first tricked him with a Minor Illusion of the sheep running off — then, while he was distracted, she hit him with Suggestion. Her suggestion? That he was her best friend and they should go get lunch so he could tell her everything about the villain. He failed the save, and it turned out this guy had never had a best friend in his life. So she happily took him out for sausages and he spilled every secret his boss had. I was already having a blast.

So then they get down to business.

They snuck into the bad guy's compound and a fight broke out with the guards, who were secretly people polymorphed into apes. My daughter's Fire Bolt helped drop one, and when it died it turned back into a human man on the ground. She went quiet. Then she cried. Real tears. "Omg. I didnt want to kill him i didnt want to roll that good." I wasn't ready for that.

After a break for some hugs. As DM, I decided that the other GuardApe was molified by the real tears for his dead guardsmam. She rolled with advantage to persuade him to stop attacking. "Enough bloodshed" mom said and so did the best friend ex-enforcer.

Then, my wife, without missing a beat, cast Revivify on rhe killed guard. He gasped back to life. My daughter cried again, this time laughing with per joy. She was so happy she thanked her mom. She didnt know mom had that power.

And then the ending. They get to the villain. An apprentice who spent thirty years being bullied by the wizard that's now trapped as the sheep. My daughter rolled a nat 20 to intimidate him... and then immediately felt bad about it, because i pretended to shake and stutter in fear. So...what did she do?. She apologized to him, and offered to protect him from his old master (the sheep) if he'd just stop hurting people. She talked the big bad out of being the big bad. In exchange for an apology from the sheep, he handed over the polymorph wand and walked away. She cried a third time: relief. She said, that "he didn't have to be the bad guy anymore."

Eight years old. Her instinct wasn't to kill the villain. It was to save him. I had to look at my dice for a second so I wouldn't lose it at the table too.

No character died. Everyone got turned back into a person. The insufferable sheep got his thumbs back and turned out to be completely broke. Perfect one-shot.

I know these wholesome posts show up here a lot, but I get it now. Best game I've ever run.

Highly recommend Wild Sheep Chase for new players, and even higher recommend playing with your kid.
