I asked my followers on X to send me their characters and my regular client sent me a description of their one-shot character, Lady Lament. She is a changeling spy who fronts as a very famous singer and entertainer and a water genasi woman. "The joke is she's so good/popular that people lament not seeing her"!

I made this drawing with watercolour, watercolour pencils and a tiny bit of gouache. Right now I'm working on my sketching course for artists and drawing every day on paper feels great! Dnd characters are so fun and exciting to draw, hope you enjoy this little painting as well!

Killian was a knight in service to a very respected noble lord who was known for devoting his life to protecting the people of the realm. Everything he believed about his lord was shattered when he discovered that he was a vampire who had spent years preying upon his own subjects from the shadows. Refusing to become another obedient thrall, he fought back but was quickly overwhelmed. He managed to escape with his life, though the vampire's bite left him forever changed.

Forced into exile, Killian swore that one day he would return to expose the monster masquerading as a hero, and free his people from the tyrant they unknowingly serve.

This is the current state of my foxfolk barbarian Vyx. She was a propaganda model, born to keep her fur prim and proper, giving the townsfolk a charming and sweet grin, enough to enlist in the nearby border war to protect. Despite her naive and prissy front, she wanted to become more than a trophy, going as far to brand her unscathed body with the mark of her towns soldiers. After the general learned of this, she was banished from the town, only to survive with the clothes on her back and a large solid driftwood club. After a few years of trinket-thievery and newfound freedom, she meets up with the party to complete a task for the kingdom she was travelling through. One trip to the fae wilds, and one mechanical goat possession later, Vyx is tied to "Cupcake", patient zero of a man made lycathropic curse. Unfortunately, the dice were not too kind last session. The only think keeping her from turning was a few good wisdom saving throws, and unfortunately she is quite literally as dumb as a box of pebbles. That's how we got here :') an edgy goth skull-fox abomination

I'm coming out of the lost mines of phandelver and am working on expanding on some homegrown plot lines and am working on creating a list of NPCs I can pull from for most anything (shop keeps, merchants, travelers, villains, other adventurers, ect). Instead of coming up with a bunch generic random ones, i was hoping to to use some of the amazing characters from this community! If you have an oc or npc you really like that you dont mind me using as an npc please leave a description the character (quirks, class, name)! If you have a photo for reference thats a bonus but not required! Backgrounds can be as detailed or brief as you want!

Again, if this is against the rules feel free to delete!

Hi! I'm a queer artist and it's the last few days of a campaign I'm running for these dragon D20 pride enamel pins! There are 12 design variations, based on the different pride flags. The project is already overfunded, so the rewards are confirmed to be available. If you enjoy this design and want pins of this, do consider backing the project!

It ends in a couple of days (2 Jul), so if you're interested, now's the time before it ends (:

Today during our session the DM took one of the players apart and for almost half of the session we had to wait till they were done. When they finally came back the player had obtained a magic item we needed and we were going to spend some time looking for. As it turns out the DM said he had to discard almost 20 pages of the campaign. We skipped over what could have been interesting and fun and the campaign that was already close to finishing is even way closer to finish, also there was stuff I've been waiting for three sessions to do in the city which now we won't be able to do because seems we have to escape.

Honestly all of this has me pretty pissed and I don't know how to deal with it. So can anyone give me advice on how to deal with it?

I play 3 D&D campaigns with different groups. One group we have four players and one five players. The third group we started out with six players and now, ten months into the campaign, have eleven players. The DM simply keeps adding new players. We now have 11 players. Imo this is too many. Has anyone else played in a group this large?

This is a happy post. I have been playing DnD for the last 6 years but have only been a DM for about 6 months. As a new DM, I made the rather risky decision to not only home-brew my own world but tell none of my players anything about it leading up to the first session. I knew this was risky because every book I read, video I watched, and DM I talked to said that it was a bold decision to make. Maybe this isn’t that much of a faux pas in the grand scheme, but that was a bit of the impression I got.

However, I knew going into DMing that I would get the most enjoyment out of DnD if I could create my own world, especially since I had a concept and story that I was really excited about. It became very clear to me early in the planning process that there was a level of mystery to my world that was so integral to the plot that I felt my players would, in the long term, have a lot more fun if I told them nothing.

And so, after a thorough session zero and giving my players free rein to create any character they wanted, the campaign began!

We have now had several sessions since the first and it has been a blast watching this unusual combination of archetypes slowly learn about and get involved with the lore of world, from the traditions and social norms to the mystery and magical phenomenon that occur. It has made for a rather engaging slow burn all things considered.

That slow burn finally flamed up a bit this past weekend as our session included some big reveals and ah-ha moments that had all of my players locked-in on the edge of their seats, one of whom was biting their nails in anxiety. They all left the sessions absolutely astounded after some major lore drops and spent the time after session discussing their thoughts on what is going to happen next.

That already made me feel pretty good as a new DM. I know there have been a few times where I have had some hiccups with everything that comes with being a new DM, so I was just really happy that my friends have been having fun and have been putting their trust in me to help tell an interesting story.

However, I was not expecting my players to make a theory channel in our discord to discuss everything that they have learned. This has felt like such a win for everything I have built up. The channel has now only existed for a few days and it has blown up with theories and ideas of what they think is happening. It is just so cool to seen them so excited and engaged especially since I knew my campaign idea was a risk at the start.

I am really grateful for my players and I am just so happy that they seem just as into the story as I do.

This is an artwork I did for a fellow player in our Descent into Avernus campaign!

Astraea is a Dragonborn Cleric, and as a white dragonborn her player wanted her scales to have an iridescent shine. Her translucent veils and scales were SOOO hard to draw but it came out so beautiful that it's worth all the pain, haha. I just love how vibrant these colours are.

She printed it on her phone case and im very happy she likes it so much <3
