I can’t do it anymore. I’m frustrated, mad, hurt and defeated. Since COVID I’ve been running a game for 5 friends. With the exception of a few breaks I’ve been doing prep every week. The thing is, no one appreciates it.

Last July our daughter joined us. We took a break for three months until I went on paternity leave. They guilt tripped me into continuing the game. I’m exhausted. I barely have time to sleep let alone plan a game.

I can’t DM anymore. I just can’t. But when I asked for someone else to run a game for a while I was called “selfish.” They tell me I’m abruptly ending (pausing) a game they’re so invested in. No one will step up and run an again.

I’m left with two options. Push myself to prep a game every week or simply give up the game. No one else will run one. I can’t play online because I don’t have a computer. I don’t want to give up my only hobby. I just want someone else to put in effort for a change. But it looks like that won’t happen.

And before it’s suggested I look for live groups online- I live in a somewhat rural area. Even if I could get over the anxiety of playing with complete strangers I’d be surprised to find 2-3 individuals within an 45 minute drive.

I am constantly seeing posts about problem players, DM’s that can’t get a break, or groups that just can’t make time to play, but my group is on our third campaign (OotA, CoS, and WDDH) with each campaign consisting of a different DM, that meets almost every week online, and we get along with each other pretty well. Am I just seeing the problems online and most tables are pretty chill or am I a part of a really unique group?

Basically, next session the players are stealing a ship. They need to get somewhere, and thought the price of transport was too expensive, but they don't have enough money to purchase a ship - sooo, they're stealing one. They thought it would be fun, and I agree. However, they're going to steal a military ship belonging to a powerful Federation currently at war against extraplanar invaders, from a port city located on a river in the heart of the Federation. The boat is actually part of military reinforcements being sent to the front lines, and the river passes along several of the continent's largest cities, in which they will obviously be wanted criminals for stealing military assets in wartime. They really haven't thought this through, they're just excited to steal the ship (and I insist, I'm excited to run it, I've got a great session ready for Saturday).

The issue is, there's really no way the Federation would let them sail along the river for 10 days or so, aboard a stolen longship. For the world to make any kind of sense, they have to get cut off and arrested if they try to just coast on through. My initial thought was to get them arrested, tried, and sentenced to death, but being offered commutation for services in the ongoing war. That would allow for some interesting adventuring, and I think would convey the notion that this is a real world, with an internal logic and consequences for their actions (this is our group's first campaign, we're all newbies). However, on the other hand, I worry they might feel I'm simply being too harsh or constrictive, or outright punishing them for being creative and wanting to have fun. Should I just let them roll with it and sail on to their original destination?

I'd appreciate any input from more experienced DMs! Thanks in advance.

I've been a cartoonist professionally for about ten years now, and I've worked on a lot of DnD-adjacent stuff, including a series in which I turn people's DnD Stories into silly little comics, very uncreatively called Your DnD Stories. But, goofy gag strips don't always pay the bills, so I've also intermittently been in the habit of drawing people's DnD groups. Recently, I took the (insane?) step of making that a much larger part of my day-to-day workflow, including starting to livestream for a few hours every weekday while working on the pictures.

In total, I've drawn over 650 TTRPG characters since I started seriously promoting it, including 200+ just this year.

So, I thought it would be fun to mash all of the groups from this year together into one big, chaotic image. I hope you enjoy it at least a little bit. Feel free to AMA in the comments!

I've noticed that a good chunk of my enjoyment of DnD comes from the DM and other players being able to buy into the fantasy history and lore of the world. It just makes the world feel more legitimate and lived in, which in turn makes it more enjoyable.

In turn, certain stereotypes and common tropes and other issues take me out of it. For example, making adventurers something that exist and is self-referential within the game lore definitely takes me out of it, as I prefer to consider the party a part of an organic world which doesn't group their actions within some framework.

What are such deal-breakers for you?

For a small party, which class or subclass would be the best? Bard as a whole is a pretty good option. Celestial warlock for striker and healer is also pretty decent. Eldritch Knight can tank and also have utility spells. Moon Druid makes for good tank, scouting and utility. What are your favorite versatile built?
