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've DM'd for my group of friends for about 6-7 years and now i'm finally on the player seat for a long term campaign (Hoard of the dragon queen).

We're about 10 sessions in and being on this side of the table made a problem i always had with my friends a little more clear: their characters don't have any flaws and ALWAYS go for the most optimal decision possible, no matter what their characters are.

One big aspect of DnD (and any other roleplaying games) for me is how we can build these heroes with both strenghts and weaknesses.

It's a little hard to explain, but playing with them sometimes feels like we're playing Baldur's Gate, where everyone is constantly trying to figure out the "correct" choice that leads to the easiest or most optimal outcome. As a result, their characters often feel like different versions of the same archetype: the nice hero who always makes the right decision.

On the other hand, I'm usually thinking about which choices best align with my character's traits, flaws, and personality, and how those choices can help them grow and change, even if they create conflict or make things more difficult

For now, I'm just going along with it. Whenever I make a decision that could create tension, I always check with the other players out of character to make sure everyone's okay with it, because I don't want to become the "it's what my character would do" guy, but i wanted to hear from the community and see if anyone had any advice for me.

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!

Charlie may temporarily have the body and intelligence of a human, but a polymorphed owlbear still has no idea how to act in humanoid society. Singing Cricket is doing his best to keep Charlie out of trouble.

What’s going on here?

• Singing Cricket (retired adventurer), Kayra (young night hag) and the rest of the hag coven are attending the wedding of a changeling, the strange creature that replaced Kayra as a baby.

• Charlie is an owlbear that Singing Cricket adopted by accident while trying to protect a baby house. Taking a Discworld-inspired cue, the hags decided to polymorph him into a human and bring him along to join the party.

• The maid of honour, Sassy, has been unlucky in love - but she was quite taken by Charlie (almost literally) when they were introduced. Unfortunately, Singing Cricket’s efforts to keep him on his best behaviour are frustrating the poor half-orc lady.

Love and Hex started out as a joke about my D&D campaign and turned into an ongoing rom-com/horror story. It's on Webtoon and other platforms. Also r/LoveAndHex.

There's also a book! You'll find it on Amazon (just use your country's site), or Comcraft.

High above the crashing waves lies a well-defended castle that is built into the side of a mountain. This castle serves as the home of Captain Flint and his rag tag army of buccaneers and outlaws!

This fortress features high stone walls reinforced with two towers and plenty of cannons to scan the horizon. A large mountain provides natural protection from the north and west.

A small hamlet is set up within the castle, with a mountain spring providing fresh water. More buildings are in the process of being built, as this castle serves as a refuge for many convicts and brigands.

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.

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?

If this isnt allowed feel free to delete!

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!

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?
