Of course the bard takes the credit for a successful social check. Our rogue doesn't seem to mind.

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. (There's also a book collection of the first eight story arcs if you like paper.)

I need your help

So,

Practically im playing DND for the first time with some of my new friends, and I've been creating this character for a month already, A man form Cyberpunk world gets transported into medieval fantasy setting.

I have this gun from OG world that transformed into some mythical arcane blaster, that basically does harry Potter spells (Accio, Descendo, Depulso and Ascendio)

I have very limited 6 Bullets until long rest) as you can see only combination of theese or use of an area does the damage to targets.

what kind of melee weapon or tool i can add to this so i can play "yo-yo" playstyle?

I don't even have a class or subclass yet, and i dont want to be a damage dealer class like gunner or something like that either.

Can you help the brother out with some ideas regarding character, Playstyle and class function

 [OC] An interactive Forgotten Realms map for finding places and planning travel
Posted: 2026-07-15T12:45:49+00:00
Author: /u/jarickkkhttps://www.reddit.com/user/jarickkk

I've been developing Toril Explorer (te.geospatial-grimoire.com), a free browser-based map. Unlike most fantasy maps, it is based on a geospatial model of Toril, giving the world a consistent planetary scale and supporting practical tools for campaign preparation and play.

The current version includes:

  • search for locations across Toril
  • distance measurement and travel-time estimates using D&D 5e travel rules, with metric and imperial units
  • map views for the Surface, Upperdark, Middledark, and Lowerdark
  • terrain elevation lookup, shaded relief, and a 3D globe view
  • custom campaign markers that can be saved, backed up, and transferred between devices

It works on both desktop and mobile. The interface, feature metadata, and map labels are available in English, Italian, and Russian. Multilingual support is built into Toril Explorer from the ground up, and additional languages may be added later.

Rather than relying on a dedicated map server, Toril Explorer runs as a static web app. The map is rendered and most processing happens directly in your browser, so performance depends on your device as well as your internet connection. If the app feels slow, trying a faster device or connection may help.

The map was built from scratch using official cartographic sources, primarily the Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas from 2e. It does not yet include every place shown in later source maps. Locations from 3e and 5e maps are on the roadmap, along with filters for controlling their visibility by edition or source.

Development has been moving quickly thanks to feedback from the Forgotten Realms community. Several recent improvements came directly from comments and suggestions, and seeing people use the project has helped me keep that momentum going.

What would make Toril Explorer most useful at your table: configurable hex grids, filters by edition, tools for drawing custom routes and regions, support for another language, or something else entirely?

I decided to immortalize a moment in the campaign I DM that made me laugh. This player is very experienced and well-versed in faerie lore from around the world; The fact that his brain temporarily glitched made for a fun moment that the whole table enjoyed. I'm normally pretty flexible with retcons, but this was too funny and remained canon.

EDIT: There were no major consequences for his misstep, he was able to talk the fairy down :)

The fey's design is based (loosely) on the exquisite "Prisma Hunter" home-brew creature made by u/AriadneStringweaver

 Watercolor monsters pt. 4: The Beholder [OC]
Posted: 2026-07-14T20:44:50+00:00
Author: /u/Relative-Zombie-3932https://www.reddit.com/user/Relative-Zombie-3932

Here's part 4 of my series of dnd monster watercolor paintings. If you like these and want to see more, let me know what monsters you want to see! So far, I've done an Owlbear, a Myconid, a Flumph, and now a Beholder.

If you're interested in the process, I have a time lapse video of the painting available on my Instagram @tomfoolerytotality.

I initially wanted him to be red, but it just wasn't working when I put the colors down. So I scrapped it and went with green. I kinda like it, makes him look like sleep paralysis Mike Wazowski.

 how do I convince my player to not play an anime character?
Posted: 2026-07-15T00:23:13+00:00
Author: /u/OkEnd7443https://www.reddit.com/user/OkEnd7443

so for context, one of my players who is really great and loves the game, refuses to make an original character. He has made one in the three years i have been DMing him and that was for the first campaign we did. he has played a weird version of sung Jin-woo, named sung Jin-woo, who was a cleric who never healed the party, he just cast animate dead every time it was available and, when he got the spell slots, create undead. he has also played the same, "within the rules of the game" anime characters like All Might (Monk with the hero background), Tanjiro (fighter with the merchant background), and once he started binge watching ben 10 and decided to make him (druid circle of the moon). I know I am probaly supposed to let him make whatever character he wants but the characters he plays are so forgettable, most of the time when my players sit down they have to ask what character he is playing, once he missed a session and everyone forgot to remind him until in the middle of the session he asked why we weren't going after the boss we defeated last session and everyone had to explain what we did in that last session. I think he seriously needs to make an original character but I have no idea how to convince him to do so.

 [OC] [Art] The Abandoned Knight
Posted: 2026-07-14T22:02:40+00:00
Author: /u/xcrispishttps://www.reddit.com/user/xcrispis

She's my first DND character from a custom campaign we are doing

Inspired by the legendary tales of great champions, the young knight abandoned her birth name, believing that heroes are defined by their deeds rather than their lineage.

She set out in search of glory, but every quest ended in failure. But with each defeat, she rose again, refusing to surrender. Her relentless resolve drew the attention of the God of Failed Heroes, a forgotten deity who blesses those who never stop trying despite impossible odds.

Reborn as the gods paladin, she fights not for victory only, but to encourage those who come after to see that failure is not the end.

 How long do your campaigns last?
Posted: 2026-07-15T06:29:18+00:00
Author: /u/Dagua99https://www.reddit.com/user/Dagua99

I've noticed that many people, when talking about long DnD campaigns, end up telling me they last 6-8 months. I have some DMs with whom we've run 2-3 campaigns of this length over the years (playing once a week). At the same time, my current campaign has been running for almost 2 years (we also meet once a week).

Have campaigns that last this long become an anomaly, an exception? Do current players and DMs prefer short campaigns to achieve greater results? Our DM is old school and, in fact, often tells us that back in the 3.5 days, he and his old group of friends ran a campaign that lasted 8 years.

 3 Eyed Goblin (DnD drinking game)
Posted: 2026-07-15T13:34:34+00:00
Author: /u/topherdgr8https://www.reddit.com/user/topherdgr8

Last night my party had a bit of downtime and ended up playing a drinking game at a pub based on the game 3 man. I thought you lovely people might also have fun playing if you need some silly downtime activity. Can be played IRL for a extra sloppy session.

3 Eyed Goblin

At the start of the game a large flagon of ale is placed in the middle of the table (counts as 2 drinks)

Everyone rolls one dice in turn clockwise around the table. The first person to roll a 3 is the 3 Eyed Goblin.

Starting with the goblin the player rolls 2d6 and determine results below by adding together both dice. Player on the right rolls next.

Each time a 3 is rolled on any dice the goblin drinks

2: (Devil Eyes) - drink flagon

3: Goblin drinks (If Goblin rolls, instead of drinking they can assign a new goblin)

4: Near the floor (halflings/gnomes/dwarves or shortest party members drink)

5: With their knives (martials drink)

6: Full of tricks (everyone rolls slight of hand lowest drinks flagon)

7: Goes to heaven (healers drink)

8: For the great (Party Cheers and all drink)

9: It's slinging time (casters drink)

10: What's forgotten (Everyone rolls a history check lowest drinks flagon)

11: Around the glen (Waterfall*)

12: Brace yourself (Highest AC drinks)

Doubles: (roller gives each dice to a player, each player to get a dice drinks 1)

*waterfall: (DC 10): Entire party drinks 1. All players roll 1d20 until each player beats DC and stops drinking. Add 1 drink for every roll.

Drunk DC (DC 8): For each drink a player drinks the DC to become drunk goes up by one. (Players keep track of how many drinks their character has had)
