 Vaelithra Nox [OC] [art]
Posted: 2026-05-30T14:01:14+00:00
Author: /u/Artisticjadehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Artisticjade

Vaelithra Nox is a wizard who spent most of her life studying lost magic and ancient ruins. During an expedition, she found a strange page sealed inside an abandoned vault. The writing on it didn't match any language she knew, but after months of research she managed to translate part of it.
Ever since reading it, odd things have followed her. Some records claim she was present at events she has never attended. People occasionally remember conversations that never happened. Even her own journals sometimes contain entries she doesn't remember writing.
Shortly after, a crimson mark appeared over one of her eyes. Through it, she experiences brief visions of possible futures and alternate outcomes. The visions are useful, but they are often confusing and sometimes contradictory.
Vaelithra's original goal was simply to uncover forgotten knowledge. Now she is trying to understand what she awakened when she read that page, and why it seems connected to her.

 I designed and built my second DND table, Durin’s Hammer [OC]
Posted: 2026-05-30T19:02:57+00:00
Author: /u/NDVerminhttps://www.reddit.com/user/NDVermin

I wanted to create a smaller and simpler DND table than Durin’s Hammer (my original table) while also making one which easily converts for dining so it’s a little more practical.

The center section can elevate and is on a turntable mechanism so it’s easy to rotate the terrain for better viewing or for easier reach.

There’s kind of 3 different ways to set it up - the one with the curved “eclipse” shelves for TTRPG, a basic hex setup with narrower side rails for board games, puzzles etc, and then of course a complete topper system for dining or playing on top.

I’m excited about how it came out - I you like it.

I was going to wait to post this until after session today just in case one of my players saw it, but two of them quit for very bullshit reasons today so here it is. It's on a 4ft x 2ft piece of MDF. A large portion of this is just Aether Studios ruined village and cliff pieces. one of their community members created a riser system for it and that is what I used for the elevation. Amazing system. I guess I need to find some new players.

 [Art] I made a key hook mimic
Posted: 2026-05-30T00:46:33+00:00
Author: /u/Pollard_MDhttps://www.reddit.com/user/Pollard_MD

Modeled in Blender, 3D printed in resin, painted and assembled by me. I bought a regular hook rack from Home Depot and removed the hooks to replace them with my designs.

This was a "Mimic of the Month", a mimic chosen by my Patreon members, and I'm really thankful to them for coming up with such a cool idea!

You can find a more detailed video on the mimic on my social media:

 How do I kick a player when I don't have any problem with him?
Posted: 2026-05-30T04:17:51+00:00
Author: /u/Natwennyhttps://www.reddit.com/user/Natwenny

Hello Reddit, I have a sad problem.

I've been running the Dragonlance campaign for a few years now, and one of our players had to leave. To make a long story short, the remaining players and I decided on bringing in a new player. After some searching, I decided to introduce one of my coworkers, which I call John, to the group. We had a One Shot game to "vibe check" him, and at the time it seemed pretty alright.

Fast forward a year later, my three "OG" players met with me and told me that they didn't like John. All for various reasons.

- The first one is pissed that every attempt at interacting with him falls flat. John calls himself a "roleplay first" kinda guy, but it seems that he has failed to fulfill that promise and that player is starting to loath any interactiom involving him.

- The second player is our host, and they told me that John have displayed some "etiquette issues". I don't know what he did, but they told me that they don't want him in their home again.

- The third player didn't really vibe with John from the start and gave him the benefit of the doubt, but, to quote him, "this benefit is starting to waver".

The thing is: I personnally have no problem with John. I think he's fun and brings a different dynamic to the group, but I can clearly see that this change in dynamic was never evem wanted in the first place. To me it feels kind of awkward to have to tell him "sorry, the guys don't like you anymore" (obviously I won't say it like that, but it will really boil down to that). And more importantly, it feels like the OG players are ganging up on him through me. The OG players are among my best friend so in this situation I want to and will side with them, but it feels unfair to kick someone who never wronged *me*.

Edit: Oof, didn't expect this post to get this much attention. Some comments made me realise a few things. So I gave a bit more context to someone who seemed to have asked the right question and went to sleep, 8h later it spiraled from this piece of info. The context: John has this habit of turning roleplay prompt into jokes. The two examples I gave where: - The elf player who got her backstory turned into an incest joke, which happened a year ago (it's one of the first roleplay interaction John had with the players) - An unprompted joke on the KKK, which happened last session.

Many of you told me I was "burying the lead" or that I was "biased toward John". I'm not. The first example is the worst we got from him, I called him out on it and he even apologized. The second joke I mentionned, I totally missed that one and it's Player 1 who told me after he left "hey, that was pretty fucked up what he said, hue?" And I needed slme more explanation on that one. Thing is: I miss a lot of things. My friends (the "OG" players) and I have a somewhat crude sense of humor so I didn't immediately marked off John's as the issue, knowing I had already shut down those breaking player boundaries. I wasn't trying to "bury the lead", I just genuinely had no idea this could be the issue because even the affected player took some times to tell me about the jokes I missed. Someone here happened to make me talk about it and apparently that was the right question to open the real can of worm.

When I said that he never wronged me, I obviously wasn't talking about the jokes. I was talking about the kind of issues player 2 (Host) seems to have with him. I still have no idea what these issues are, the only thing I'm aware of is about some money John owe Host and he never repaid them. But Host assured me that this was not the issue at hands so I'm lost on this one.

Anyway, thanks for the replies, it makes me realize I have way more of a leg to stand on when I'll break the news to him. And to that one person who told me they hoped my campaign died because I accidently misdirected you all: chill man, go touch some grass or something.

 Accepted a teen player in a grimdark narrative campaign. How to kick him without hurting him.
Posted: 2026-05-30T11:26:03+00:00
Author: /u/HansVonAdelhttps://www.reddit.com/user/HansVonAdel

I made a big mistake. Completly stupid of me. I am the dm and wanted to make a dark story with influences of berserk, darkest dungeon etc.

After i wrote the script i noticed that the story isnt made for younger people.

I have no problem with him. Hes a bit shy and has a low self esteem.

The other players are all adults.

I dont kill the setting for my campaign because of 1kid.

My options:

-Talk with his parents if its okay to play.

-include him for a one shot story to compensate for throwing him

-or just confront him directly and say hes out

Any suggestions?

Edit Schlussfolgerung:

I talked to him. Said it was my mistake, apologised and said the group match up was not ideal. So i proposed to him that i will do a oneshot with people at his age. Hes okay with that.

I previous said in other comments that i wrote a script. Somebody explained it to me. I didnt wrote a script rather a plot outline.

Origin: In a group chat from our local game store i asked if somebody wants to join my grimdark campaign. Some adults and the teen were interested. I was eager to play so i wrote the plot outline. When i finished i noticed it wasnt suited for minors.

Why i think its not suited for the kid: Example for a scene: The group was in caravan which is attacked by bandits. The bandits show no mercy and slaughtered the civilians. Blood flows in the muddy road. There was no difference between men, women or child. In the distant you hear how dogs chasing the innocent and tearing them appart. In another direction you see a bandit who slices a women open and eagerly devour her guts.

There is no sex included. That doesnt belong in any roleplaying game in my opinion.

I apologise. Im a beginner dm. I just want to bring the dnd scene in my local area.

 [OC] - [Art] - Beholder Lair - This is map 912, an isometric multi-level tower.
Posted: 2026-05-30T15:56:05+00:00
Author: /u/Elven-Towerhttps://www.reddit.com/user/Elven-Tower

Born of uncanny, eldritch emergence, a beholder exists solely to hate on other forms of life as it considers itself the highest iteration of existence. When mortals stumble upon its domain, by design or coincidence, the beholder takes it as a considerable insult. Still, these intrusions are rare opportunities to amuse itself...

For centuries now, a beholder named Qhontrilx has been the guardian of the Infinite Tower. It is a magical location that defies logic. The tower has an apparently infinite number of stories. Some of them were populated by Qhontrilx; the aberrant creature is an art enthusiast who enjoys acquiring and collecting art pieces. The rest of the levels are auto-populated by the Infinite Tower’s arcane power. Qhontrilx does not know how that works, but he suspects that the contents of newly generated stories are inspired by the memories, fears, and feelings of those who last visited the tower.

The Infinite Tower is in a demiplane. There is a permanent gate in a remote location in the Material Plane, near the Underdark. The tower can also be reached with teleportation magic; the rune sequence for the circle in area 1 has been shared in the Material Plane many times. Finally, the gate in area 16, the tower’s top level, connects to the Outer Planes. Creatures from afar often come to see the beholder’s art collection.

We just published this adventure yesterday, know more Here.
