 [OC][Comm] Althea,Human Barbarian
Posted: 2026-06-03T11:58:04+00:00
Author: /u/RikaRinihttps://www.reddit.com/user/RikaRini

Hello everyone! ✨ I’m excited to share this commission featuring Althea, a Human Barbarian. Once a fierce Viking raider, her life changed when her young son, Arkyn, vanished during a raid after stowing away on her ship. Refusing to believe he is gone, Althea left behind her husband, village, and former life to search every land, sea, and even other planes in hopes of finding him. 💜

 Is it weird when men play female characters?
Posted: 2026-06-03T16:32:32+00:00
Author: /u/Plastic_Corgi6848https://www.reddit.com/user/Plastic_Corgi6848

I would like honest answers to this question. I'm semi retired and over the past 6 months I've taken up TTRPGs as my main hobby. I play 3-4 games perweek, all online.

Im thinking of playing a female character for a change of pace, but I also think its a bit weird when other men do that. Thoughts?

 Finally it paid off - player betrayal over a year in the making
Posted: 2026-06-03T17:41:57+00:00
Author: /u/Boedidilleehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Boedidillee

Have been setting this up for so long i cant believe the reveal finally happened.

One of my players is a cleric of Myrkul. They’re in waterdeep, and during a pit fight over a YEAR ago, I accidentally screwed him over and pushed him into a pit of spinning blades. Tried saving him with a few dexterity checks and he failed them all. It felt unfair to kill him outright since it was still early in the campaign and it was more my fault than his, so I decided to give him a vision from myrkul (in a private conversation between me and the player) where myrkul promised to spare him if he vowed to kill seven targets who had escaped death (or angered him)

Cue an entire subplot where one of the pcs’ boyfriends, the captain of the guard, has spent the past year investigating a serial killer in waterdeep. So far the pc killed two of their main friends and framed a third for murder, all while evading suspicion. Somehow, despite being the last person seen with any of these characters, the other players had NO clue it was him the entire time.

It all hit a head this weekend when he finally killed the captain of the guard investigating him, while the other pc was in bed with him. At first the players still had no clue who it could be, since his identity was being shrouded by myrkul. They even left the captain half dead WITH the killer pc, and his player shot me a text to finish the captain off when they left. When they came back and found him completely dead, one of them got a dirty 20 investigation, and managed to spot the blood still staining the pc’s arm. After an intense interrogation, he finally confessed to everything that had happened. The players were FLOORED. They never suspected one of them could be doing it, and the session ended there.

Just wanted to share a fun moment. Really enjoy dming for the freedom it gives for fun scenarios, especially with keeping the world living and interactive around them

 Monster by CR - Deadliest 1/8 CR
Posted: 2026-06-03T15:23:21+00:00
Author: /u/Conrad500https://www.reddit.com/user/Conrad500

Kobold won out by more than double against the lovable Flumph. What many don't realize is that "generic kobolds" are D&D kobolds! They weren't always little dragon guys until D&D made them! Kobold is another folklore word that means the same thing as "goblin" or "bugbear", just means an evil little guy. But now they're our most iconic 1/8CR little guy. Protip, don't google them with safe search off!

https://preview.redd.it/0pa02vjdy25h1.png?width=337&format=png&auto=webp&s=bf94cb5c0219865494fe3c65fe25056274f23aff

Now we'll continue to the deadliest CR 1/8 monster!

5e and 5.5e opinions welcome! I will not be distinguishing the editions unless there is a meaningful split in deadliness or unless a monster has changed CR between editions.

Note: Should I do 1 post per box, or 1 post per CR? This is going to be a lot of boxes to fill in if I do one at a time. Let me know in the comments if we should decide one box or 1 CR at a time!

 Vaelis Noctis [Oc] [ Art]
Posted: 2026-06-03T14:31:41+00:00
Author: /u/Artisticjadehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Artisticjade

So This is a Part of a twin character project me and my friend made together. My character Vaelis Noctis uses fire magic while theirs uses ice, so we designed them to contrast each other in both powers and personality. This one’s definitely the more chaotic twin. We didn’t come up with the lore or backstory yet, we kinda just did the designs for fun and ended up liking them Although mine is still unfinished since I didn’t do the rendering yet

A Tabaxi rogue could be hiding anywhere.

What's going on here?

Love and Hex started out as a joke about my D&D campaign and turned into an ongoing rom-com/adventure/occasionally horror story. It's on Webtoon and other platforms. Also r/LoveAndHex. (And there's a book... you can find it on Amazon.)

 [OC] [Art] Dire Tarrasque by Jess Jackdaw
Posted: 2026-06-03T17:50:27+00:00
Author: /u/hitpointpresshttps://www.reddit.com/user/hitpointpress

Okay, so, you know the normal tarrasque? Big red guy, chompy teeth, spiny carapace, and, like, 650 hit points? What if we told you there’s a dire version out there with 700+ hit points and it’s ready to eat you? It can go on a rampage; bite, claw, gore, and tail-whack you for 170 average damage a round; and deal triple damage to any building you’re cowering in. Even the air itself is scared of the dire tarrasque, meaning that you can’t fly within 200 feet of it. If you encounter one of these, sorry, bud: you’re screwed.

The dire tarrasque was created by Felix Irnich and illustrated by Jess Jackdaw for Fool's Gold: Into the Bellowing Wilds.

 [OC] my version of the DND blue dragon
Posted: 2026-06-03T17:49:35+00:00
Author: /u/Steves3511https://www.reddit.com/user/Steves3511

Hey everyone, my name is Stephen Najarian, I am a fantasy artist that sells my work at various comic conventions and ren faires in the US. I am specifically known for my dragon illustrations.

A few years ago I started a personal project, paint my versions of the chromatic dragons from DND. I have taken a few breaks along the way, but I have finally gotten around to painting the 4th in my series (red, black, and green are already done) the blue dragon.

I did take some ques from the recent re designs from Alexander Ostrowski (I absolutely love his work) while also putting my own personal spin on it.

I am currently running a small Kickstarter offering exclusive limited edition prints as well as an extended art landscape playmat version for DND/tabletop gaming. You can check that out here

You can also find more of my work, including my other DND chromatic dragons on my website

 [OC][ART][5e] Illithid Conduit -- Because Illithid's Definitely Needed To Be Weirder
Posted: 2026-06-03T18:38:19+00:00
Author: /u/justadakotahttps://www.reddit.com/user/justadakota

A few years ago, there was a picture of a really cool translucent deep sea octopus going around tabletop twitter and I thought "what a cool illithid variant this would make!!"

So I took about an hour and painted one up! Once I had the art, I couldn't let it go un-stat-blocked so I wrote that one up (shout out to my friends who taught me some Homebrewery too so it looks nice).

Imagine an illithid mad scientist who had an experiment go wrong and became a living beacon of entropy. Folding reality around them, maybe even having random wild magic surges???

(note: if you use this in your games, I did not playtest it AT ALL. I'm a concept artist, not a game designer, and while I am a longtime GM that doesn't mean I'm good at homebrew and it may not play well. That being said, you're more than welcome to use it!)
