You pry open the heavy earthen door that has been keeping you from the tomb's inner-most sanctum. You are buffeted by a thick cloud of dust that is almost as bad as the stench of fresh corpses that rushes out to greet you. Wait, why would the corpses be fresh? Supposedly none have entered the tomb of the praetors in generations. A shadow moves, defend yourself!

Greetings adventurers! We are excited to announce that the /r/DnD mod team is looking to expand. Moderating a community as robust and complex as ours takes a lot of work, and requires a diversity of thought in its management. Do you think you're up to the task?

We are looking to fill several key gaps in our mod team. We are interested in users who can help with the regex that governs automod, users who can moderate outside of US time zones, users with experience identifying AI content, and users who can advocate for communities that are under-represented on /r/DnD. That being said, ALL INTERESTED PARTIES are encouraged to apply! We need mods who are willing to just do the monotonous busy work of moderating, which is most of the work.

Do you think you would be a good fit for our mod team? Apply today! If you have any questions please let us know in the comments.

2026 /r/DnD Mod Recruitment Form

The application will stay open for at least 1 week, though we may keep it open longer. After applications close we will work to review and reach out to those selected within a week, and then make a public announcement after onboarding.

With the final nothic slain, you are finally able to take in your surroundings. Piles of bodies, some of whom you recognize as the missing clergy, are in various states of decay. You doubt the bishop of Tyr is going to be willing to hand over that bonus now...

Howdy folks

Last week I had the great honor and privilege to be selected as the test subject for the latest batch of bio-weapons my son cooked up at the Kindergarten center for Chemical Warfare, turning my entire digestive system into liquid.

Now that I'm alive and well again, I am hard at work with a pep in my step!

Hope you'll enjoy this little comic strip!

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

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

Swashbuckler costume design ideation for a DnD-style rogue character. I wanted to try two different directions for the same character – one leaning more toward a naval officer look and the other toward a charismatic tavern rogue. The costumes were loosely inspired by traditional clothing from my country, mixed with classic fantasy elements. It was interesting to see how small costume changes can shift the character’s personality and story.

Hiya everyone!

Recently released this map, I was semi inspired by Ant Lions and their method of trapping prey. Obviously this one is a little different from the sand pit they have but I think it’s cool, and also doesn’t have to be used by an ant lion, and technically could be more than just a pit depending on what you wanted to put at the bottom of the hole.

Got a couple of variants for this one too; No pit version, which is just the cave entrance and flat ground, and a spooky version with no pit but a blood trail leading to the cave entrance with some bones around the entrance. Also have a foundry module too. Check those out here if you want:

What would you put in this pit?

Some time ago i shared a picture of my Oc Fayre x Escher (from Curse of Strahd) and i had a lovely DM reach out to commission their own player's ship!
I don't know de drow girl's name but her ship is Ezmeralda and i was super happy o draw her, she's one of my favorite NPCs :,)

I hope you all like it! It was super fun and the DM was lovely to talk with!
I have another one coming, this time with Kasimir!

The sky is pierced by granite needles receding into infinity. Tethered to them like captives in irons cities hang as grim bastions held fast by heavy chains within the choking fog. From the unseen firmament above roaring torrents of water plummet. This celestial cataract thunders past the shackled citadels and vanishes into a bottomless abyss never reaching the cursed earth below. This is no flight. It is an eternal mooring over the void. When the wind lashes the iron the colossi shudder mourning those forever buckled to a silent sky.

This is my human fighter Sir Damien Evercrest from the Valdorian empire! He wields a greatsword to take down his foes. A morally complex man once the general of his own fleet, he left his warborn kingdom when he was met with a morally complex man dilemma, kill a village of innocent lives to prove a point under the orders of his superiors, or leave and become a wanted man of the people of Valdoria. He chose the latter. Now wandering he searches for his long lost friend, the former prince of his kingdom. He may look and act on the outside like he’s made of ice, but when it really matters he goes out of his way to help those closest to him.

This is my first D&D character ever and a few minutes ago we nearly had our first TPK. Luckily Damien struck down the young green dragon on 1 hp with a clutch (the rest of the party was downed), so I thought it warranted a post in celebration! Enjoy :)

I was recently commissioned by a player to do an illustration of their character. Here is his backstory: Barack Strongbow was taken in as a youth by the captain of a ship, but the cook/butcher of said ship became his true father figure. He is an adventurous captain in his own right, and he along with his crew love to ambush slave ships and mercilessly slay the captors in order to free the imprisoned. He wields a sword which is a cross between a pirate’s cutlass and a butcher’s cleaver. He is known for sporting a mischievous smile which reveals his small bottom tusks. I was told that a running gag during the campaign was that his shirt always seemed to find its way unbuttoned, showcasing his strong chest and chiseled abs.

Do your players strip every kill down to the bare bones? Do they loot the valuables, skin the corpse, sell the internal organs, and monetise the estate of every bullette they take down? Why not make it worse! Introducing Oss T. O'Porosis, bone merchant supreme. When nothing of value remains ont he battle map, this eager bonemonger shows up to pay a suspiciously decent sum for the shattered tibia of your prey.

What happens to the bones? Don't worry about it! Surely nobody would be so cruel as to necromantically ressurect an army of previously defeated enemies to be fought once again at the end of the campaign? Surely not!

To see more of my long and noble lineage of drawings based on insultingly bad puns, why not visit my Ko-Fi, Instagram, or BlueSky! If you're interested in commissions and the like, my inbox is always open. Otherwise, please just enjoy the above boneman.

Hey there, rather new DM here. We've been playing for 4 weeks and things are going smooth however I have one small question. Sometimes I present my players certain magical stuff but they don't know if that thing is actually magical. Last week, one of them thought it should be a historical artifact that was sort of important in the plot and wanted to roll history. That wasn't my intention and I had an arcane roll in mind. Should I just let them roll history even though it won't really mean anything? I don't want to correct them and say you probably should roll arcane instead because that kills the immersion and is probably meta gaming. What I had in mind for a solution was perhaps I should tell them something like "you know a lot about history and this piece certainly doesn't have a historical value but it still might be valuable in other ways"if they roll a high history check. Otherwise if they don't roll high I think I won't really help them figuring it out? What do y'all experienced dms do in cases like this? Thanks in advance

Edit: since a lot of people are saying dm decides the rolls, yes I understand that and I saw that approach but doesn't it still feel immersion breaking? My players don't demand to roll history or anything they just ask nicely if they can roll it and I very well could have them roll arcane instead but it just feels wrong. They thought it was a historical piece and wanted to roll history but if I were to have them roll arcane instead, they as players would still understand this piece is more magical than historical even if they roll critical failure because I corrected what they wanted to roll... Isn't that correct?
