Quite a few commented on the fight with Klaras mother was quite short and as you may notice, it turned out similarly with dear old papa as well. Wanted it longer but this fight has gone on for a WHILE and I wanted to wrap things up sooner rather than later, so between the two evils, I chose expedited. We can justify it by saying the fight was balanced because of all the ads!

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

My D&D comics: Sellswords & Sorcery The Weekly Roll The Pos'Thal Chronicles

My 40k fancomic Rogue's Retinue: Rogue's Retinue

I’ve been DMing for a few years now, and I’ve noticed a massive shift in my players' engagement based on how we describe their actions.

Last night, our cleric cast spiritual weapon. Mechanically, it’s just a d8 of force damage. But instead of the standard "glowing hammer," she described it as a "massive, spectral anchor dripping with ghostly seawater" to fit her sailor background.

Suddenly, the whole table was locked in. Every time that anchor swung, it felt "heavy" and meaningful, even if the roll was just a 3.

It got me thinking about how much of this game is just math disguised as a story. Since then, I've started encouraging everyone to "reskin" their standard spells; like the Wizard's Magic Missile being "glowing spectral ravens" or the Bard's Vicious Mockery being "a literal floating mouth that whispers the target's deepest insecurities."

I feel like it takes the focus off the "grind" of combat and puts it back on the roleplay.

I digged deep into every single class from Barbarian to Wizard and back again to make sure every class gets a sheet with the most important stats and feats highlighted. For example the Channel Divinity feat of the Cleric is right there, trackable on the front of the sheet. Next to the symbol for the feat-cards. This way you can write down the Channel Divinity feats on the lines and track the expended uses of it. But also don’t get overwhelmed by too much text. The descriptions of the feats can be found in the playing cards which can be placed below the large „+“ symbol. Same with Weapons, items, magic items, spells and armor. All the stuff that has long descriptions is outsourced to playing cards that get placed around the sheet or can be organized in a playing card folder. Only the most important core stats and information are found on the front side of the sheet.

For every class I designed an individual sheet to make sure the gameplay gets smoother and easier. I find it very useful honestly. I played a campaign with some friends and my wife recently. She is a complete beginner and plays a Sorcerer. She found it very overwhelming at the start when she used the standard character sheet. With my sheet it is still overwhelming to play a Sorcerer as a beginner to be honest… :D But it really is better. Especially the color coded stats help a lot.

The sheets are all fillable PDFs so you can use them on your laptop or tablet or can also print them out. Printer friendly versions without the beige background are also included. For most of the classes it was not necessary to create one sheet for each ruleset (2014 & 2024). But for some it was. Like the Ranger for example and the Sorcerer too. So for these classes are two sheets each included.

I am really happy with the outcome. I wanted to create those sheets for years. And in the last year I finally found time for it. Feels good to finish a creative project that involves one of my favorite hobbies.

I would love to hear what you think about those sheets! Let me know in the comments. I could only post one photo so you can see all the pictures of all the different sheets on my Etsy store:

Been playing exclusively online games for over 15 years. Now that my kids are all "upper" teenagers I turned a room in my house into a gaming room. Built a table over the summer & fall and we are now 4 (ish) months into the first in-person campaign of what I hope will be a decades long group.

The bottom of the table (not seen here) still needs to be stained and finished but the "play surface" is totally done. If you look closely you can see each side has a little cubby for players that can hold 2 D&D books long ways side by side.

I put corkboard around the DM table but if there are any recommendations I'll happily take them.

Map size is 24x86

Hiya everyone!

This is an old map at this point but I’m still really pleased with how pretty it looks, I’m not sure I’ve been able to make many maps that feel as ‘arty’ as this one does since then.

Thematically this is a dock that requires some sort of puzzle (which can be decided by the GM, not me) to reveal a ship that can travel astrally. The patron version of this release has that ship, plus some other variants of the map, and some glowing rune assets that show that the rune areas are successfully activated.
Or you can just ignore all that and use the map how you see fit of course!

Happy adventuring!

My party was hunting down a wereboar that was terrorizing the area. During their investigations, they found special weapons, information about plant-based protections and learned from a vampire that lycanthropes spread using a bite or a scratch.

The fight happens, on the boar's first turn it bites one of the players and they fail their con saving throw for the curse. They had an opportunity to use lucky or heroic inspiration, but chose not to.

After the fight, I let the player know that their character is now cursed with lycanthropy, but not necessarily of the boar kind. I got the impression that they felt I was being unfair springing this curse one them(They didn't say so explicitly).

Was I being unfair by cursing them?

I have some discord friends that I ask to help me with challenges to build characters using combinations that I wouldn't normally go for when building my own characters.

Enter Umbracia Blacksteel of House Ingot.
A small but formidable court member, her force of personality often yields results but despite her short size she carries strength well beyond her form. The many monsters that linger in the Underdark provide a wonderful exercise and sport which further honed her fury.

While in a deeply intense and bloody political takeover in her City, the situation turned hostile leading to a massive coup which nearly razed the entire City to the ground. Umbracia barely escaped with her life with the help of her retainers. This insult will not be left unanswered and so she dedicates all of her powers, resources and fury to reclaim her home and bring to justice the cruel and violent rulers that destroyed everything she loved.

Reposting this because the initial post was deleted, I'm going to assume that the censored version was still too nsfw, so i'll give this the nsfw tag in addition.

Another commission by the ever-talented Kannez, my Vampire (mechanically Dhampir) Rogue/Warlock Gestalt character. A Chaotic Evil Half-Elf who was a world renowned star to the public eye, but a killer with a body count in the triple digits (and do we mean kills or conquests?) behind the curtains.

A vampire noble had abucted her after one of her shows, making the mistake of thinking she'd be a harmless and frightened pet. He thought wrong. Since being turned and "escaping" her master, she's gone from traveling performer to traveling mercenary.
