i am going to keep this short and to the point.
’m legit not sure how to deal with this situation. played with my group of five for four years online, and a new guy joined a few months ago. our group is mostly open, with a moderate spectrum of political views but nothing abrasive.
Fastforward to now, and the dude turned out to be extreme right, and fascist. several of us are not okay with this, but others don’t quite see his behavior and statements the same way, especially the person who invited him to the group. our group doesn’t have a dedicated dm, so we don’t really have a "boss" per say. I don’t know what to do, but I’m deeply bothered by this situation and even considering leaving the group.

the heck do you do in this situation?

So we’re only two sessions into a new campaign.
Session 1 I prepped my ass off — went fine.
Session 2 I forgot to prep at all — went way better.
Apparently I’m a wizard when I panic.

One player has a backstory where he’s wanted by a faction that owns the starting town. They check the guild for wanted posters to see if they are looking for him, so I pretend to check my notes (there are no notes) and make some up. I mention a halfling thief with a small bounty.

Later they go shopping. It’s been too quiet so I roll a d20 on my nonexistent encounter table and say the party’s gold holder needs to roll Perception. He fails. Another player rolls and succeeds.

Boom: chase scene. Dex saves, parkour, the whole thing.

They ask who they’re chasing. First thing that pops into my head: halfling. The table immediately assumes it’s the halfling from the wanted posters.

I say it isn’t. They decide she must WORK for the halfling on the poster.
Sure. Yes-and. Let’s go.

They interrogate her, follow leads, and suddenly we’re in the headquarters of a previously non-existent halfling crime organization having an awesome fight. One of four players gets absolutely ganked by thugs with pack tactics and goes down. The rest end the fight on fumes and barely pull it off.

They loot, heal, and find a door. Rogue asks if it’s trapped.

It wasn’t.
But now it is.

He rolls Investigation. Success.
He rolls to disarm. Success.
The table erupts. I pretend to be annoyed they “saw through my clever trap.” They feel like geniuses.

Session ends. Everyone tells me they loved it.

They will never know I bullshitted my way through a 6-hour session on zero prep. I am the king of bullshit sitting on my throne of turds.

Anyone else accidentally build entire plot arcs from a single failed perception check?

I’m considered low vision and often have a hard time seeing the numbers on my rolls. High contrast colored dice help to an extent, but only so much. Wasn’t finding any good options online to purchase, but my awesome DM found and gifted me a Vortex Mega-hedral Bright Green/black 7-Die Set and they’re awesome! Large with great color contrast. I wanted to share in case anyone out there is in the same boat! Happy gaming, everyone! (Photo of my old dice vs new dice for comparison)

I need some name suggestions for this vampire lady. She’s supposed to be a minor antagonist in the beginning of my campaign that later turns into a semi ally. I say semi bc she will always serve her own needs and purpose first.

Personality: she’s a free spirit - can be very chaotic when in the mood for it. She has no issues harming humans, but has a soft spot for insects. She loves music and dancing, and gets particularly sour when people decline her invitation to dance.

Shes a relatively young vampire. Once a noble that was turned as a result of a failed assassination. She’s been roaming the world in search of entertainment ever since.

Hey everyone,

I'm creating a human fighter with an INT stat of 9 and I wanted to come up with a way to this out in RP. The solution I came up with is that he acts normal but mentions that he believes in conspiracy theories and random dumb stuff.

The only thing I've come up with so far is that he thinks all cats are female and all dogs are male but I was hoping someone could provide a more DND related one.

I had never thought about it before but people really like Hex it seems like, I know that I do quite a lot. And it gives a lot of feeling of marking a target for dead. But it got me thinking, outside of the disadvantage on a particular save, it isn’t all that different from Hunter’s Mark. However, the largest criticism of 2024 ranger is the reliance on Hunter’s mark. So I am wondering, what makes hex fun and hunter’s mark so unfun if they are both trying to fulfill the role of “mark a target to die”.

Functionally the ranger should really enjoy the fantasy of “picking a target to hunt” but instead it just receives nothing but flack. I am really trying to look at this to understand this little bit of game design because these have ended up on such different parts of the spectrum

Made in collaboration with The Mad Cartographer - "The Ogre Hovel is a small stockyard within the village boundaries, which has been hurriedly repurposed to try and provide a living space for the friendly but clumsy young Ogre orphan who recently came into contact with the village, named Lunk. The guards have set up a wary watch post, but children from the village spend most of their time climbing up instead to watch the Ogre."

I loved drawing this young ogre, who's just trying to do his best with the help of local kids. I can imagine any number of fun ways to incorporate this art into your campaign, even if you just need a derpy-looking ogre.
