I (18f) invited this guy I used to like (18m) to join a campaign that I DM because he was a mutual friend of some of my players. I did not expect him to say yes because I invited him out of courtesy. I lied earlier. Now I have a fat crush on him...

Am I even allowed to do anything about it? Will it ruin the game for the other players if I do? I also can't tell if this is due to my bias towards him, but he's one of the most considerate players I've ever DMed and he's completely new.

For context, we have a big campaign, so it's often really hectic. After his first session, he texted me and asked if I was doing ok because everyone was talking over me. I was so surprised that he reached out because I'm honestly used to it. Anyways, I make it a point to not favor him differently than other players. I'm hoping that it hasn't changed anything...

Ok so I’ll admit in a session recently, they found their way to a nobleman’s home and were invited to the gala. For fun, I ask them to roll dexterity to see if they get swept up in the dances. They all fail, so I take turns doing small talk with their various partners. I get to him, and I’m 2 people in when he asks if the NCP is flirting with him. In my mind it was supposed to be small talk :,D… I say sure they’ve got a flirty personality (his insights really high). Then I think maybe I talked too much to him (although in my mind, I thought I had an equally long conversation with another player). Because after the 3rd person, he says I can move on to the next player. Internally I panicked a lot.

Just for fun, I’ll add another story. I am so stupid. I gave him a ride home and we talked. I stop at his house. He loiters around for a while so I assume maybe the doors locked. I unlock the door. He continues to stay in the car. I ask him if he wants me to walk him to his door or something and he laughs it off. Anyways, we hug say bye he leaves. :sigh:

Do relationships ruin games? I've never had this kind of situation with the other guys I play with. How do I go about this? Any advice is welcome. :,)

The title says it all. Not that I am a die-hard Old School player; I'm flexible. But all the local games here are in libraries and for teens.

Just wondering if I've aged out of the gaming pool the same way I've aged out of the dating pool.

This includes artificer and blood hunter btw

My personal favorite class is artificer

Finished this piece for a private client! This is their D&D character a 10ft tall male Kitsune fighter equipped with dual greatswords and alchemical arm tubes, set in a snowy cherry blossom landscape. He went through a massive campaign transformation, growing into a giant fox warrior with a completely redesigned outfit, Really enjoyed bringing this detailed character design and his unique weapons to life!

If you're looking to bring your own DND characters or OCs to life, my commissions are open feel free to drop me a message anytime!

Hi guys, this is my client's character, Viktor, whom I was commissioned to draw for their DnD game. He is a necromancer pretending to be a cleric. Here is his backstory given my client: Born with a severe spiral deformity in his left arm and his right leg, Viktor was abandoned as an infant. Raised in the necromantic city, his brilliant mind made him a prodigy, until his jealous peers murdered him in a ruined chapel.

He woke up hours later, his body branded with blackened, spiraling scars and his magic shattered. Now, he hides in plain sight as "Father Coal," a humble traveling priest from the freezing north as he tracks down his old peers, while benefiting off the kindness of others.

I'm slowly getting better as a DM and i would still consider me a far below average one but when your players talk about what's happening in the session without even being prompted during a piss break or even post session... Damn that feels good.

I'm running a homebrew campaign and it's honestly nowhere near as hard as others made it out to be. I fumbled my second session hard but that's about it, the rest has been more or less on track.

I posted an artwork of her in here recently with another axe, but shortly after I finished that my DM came up to me and reminded me the axe was double bladed... So I wanted to redesign it (also to avoid it looking so much like Kratos' axe hahah). This is the first magic item of our Descent Into Avernus campaign, and my character's the one to have it! It's an Uthgardt tribe battleaxe that allows the user to cast Spiritual Weapon once a day. Really fitting considering this character wanted to be a cleric, but decided to go on a more combat-oriented route in order to find a person who's dear to her.

I was so stoked to be commissioned to do a portrait of someone's dnd character. My goal is to find a client base within the fantasy character community! I took inspiration from some old oil paintings of military commanders as she's a commander as well. I'm pretty pleased with how the detailing in the armor came out and the face shading.

Hello again :)

A DND party I drew. A bit of text from the description the client gave me:

"Agronak.

Half Orc, Barbarian.

Agronak was a rage fueled monster who only adventured to find bigger and better fights, but now he has friends. He was raised a slave and embraced the pain as a way to endure/cope. He's not a very nice or smart person, but he's loyal and will draw the challenging enemies to himself so that his allies can focus on the easier fights or support him from a distance. And because bigger enemies are more fun to kill.

Beren.

Firbolg, Fighter/rogue.

Beren was a forest dweller of Faerun that chose to break away from his docile life. After many travels and consistent training with a kensei monk he met along the way, he learned the way of the blade. Beren mastered the katana after many years of training with that monk. He has become a strong swordsman and mastered his body through constant effort and training his physical abilities.

Thawne.

Ranger/Rogue.

Dead kid, dead wife, dead parents. Grew up with just his father as a young child until his father was killed while out hunting. Eventually joined the thieves out of necessity to survive, met a woman, fell in love, had a child, and left the thieves. They didn’t like that and tried forcing him back in with “one last job”. The job was a set-up and Thawne's wife and child were killed by the thieves while he was forced to watch. Thawne then began spending his time searching for them to get his revenge. Due to his trauma, he is normally timid but with the help of his friends he met along his travels, he has grown.

Celeste.

Half-elf wizard/warlock combo.

Celeste started her journey as a student at one of the world's best magic schools. She pushed herself hard because she knew she was destined for greatness. Celeste sought the help of her warlock patron, Kisara, one of the most powerful wizards of all-time, who fancies becoming a god. Celeste is used to lying, cheating, and stealing to get what she wants, but she rarely needs to anymore due to the power she has amassed during her journey. She is no longer a stressed student but a wizard of great power soon to be a living legend.

Torvald.

Kobald. Class is cleric.

Torvald is a tempest cleric devoted to the service of Thor. He was hatched and raised on a ship full of other Kobalds and captained by a storm barbarian Dragonborn (old PC). He left to find his own adventure, and has grown tremendously traveling with this party. He loves to help his allies however he can, and enjoys summoning the power of Thor to create powerful blasts and big booms.

Bromnir Flameborn “Champion of Moradin”.

Dwarf, Forge Paladin.

Bromnir was once an officer in a dwarven army before a terrible tragedy led to him leaving the army and turning to a life of servitude as a Forge Cleric. Throughout his adventures, Bromnir started turning more and more back towards martial ways as he fought to defend his friends and all those dear to him. During a crucial battle with his party’s lives on the line, Bromnir swore an oath to Moradin and became his Champion, and a Paladin of The Forge, in order to save them. He dedicates himself to the protection of others and servitude to Moradin."

I hope you liked what I did :) To see more of my characters, I invite you to my Instagram. See you there! :)

Okay, so a little backstory.

The DnD group I play with is like this - my brother is the DM, two of the other players are also my brothers, there is a younger guy named Corey (not real name) and an older guy named Terry (also not real name.) I am the only girl, I'm in my mid-thirties.

Terry has been historically included because when we would do in-person DnD, it would be held at his house. At the time, he didn't have any young kids, he was about retirement age, everyone would alternate what days they were in charge of food. Honestly, it was harder on his wife than it was him, which I recognized and tried hard to compensate for. She didn't enjoy DnD but also didn't hate people and wanted to be a part of it.

Well, it turns out, Terry is kind of a piece of shit and got domestic violence charges. Coupled with the guy hitting on me when I became a single parent (despite him being married and me being almost 30 years his junior, I told his wife, it was a whole.. thing) I just generally don't like him. He still makes uncomfortable comments when he drinks, which is more often now that his ex-wife has a restraining order. I get I'm the only girl and my brothers don't know how gross he is actually being. I've had to point it out to the DM multiple times when I thought it was obvious. Again, my brother.

Admittedly, it's ALL a little weird. And I just don't like the guy anymore. He was the step-father of my brother's (The DM) ex-girlfriend. That girl was a piece of work and just abandoned my brother after five years for some dude she met on Discord. Terry never liked her, so at the time it was more of a common enemy thing when we met in person. But now that he's a proven piece of shit (domestic violence charges and half-baked excuses about it in the DnD chat) coupled with him making weird veiled passes at me despite me being almost 30 years his junior, I just don't want to play with him anymore.

But when I bring this up to my DM... again, my brother... he is very nonchalant and dismissive about the whole thing? He thinks the charges against Terry are a bit played up (I mean, in his defense, Terry's wife is not the most reliable person and victimizes herself often because of a gambling addiction) and also acknowledges that Terry's hit on me, but doesn't believe (and also doesn't believe that Terry believes) he has a chance in hell, and I'm his big sister and I can more than handle this. While he's not wrong, it feels so shitty to not be backed up here.

We're about to start a new campaign and honestly I would just love to be unburdened by this guy for it. I've told my brother this. I've discussed it with another brother in the upcoming campaign who agrees but doesn't know Terry well enough to feel comfortable speaking out and it's so fucking FRUSTRATING. I do not want to quit, me and my brother work HARD on his campaigns concerning the backstory and history. I am basically his co-author.

How do I, respectfully, ask my brother to kick this verifiable garbage-bag from our group when he sees him as a backbone from our in-person days? I absolutely feel his nostalgia about gaming in-person before the Covid era is the culprit here, but I can't fix that. I think I know deep down the answer is an ultimatum, but I think my brother-DM also knows I'm not willing to abandon the work I've put into his campaign. If ultimatum is the only option, so be it, but is there one I'm not seeing here?
