 I fumbled because I got 3 natural 20’s
Posted: 2026-04-26T11:15:19+00:00
Author: /u/bob-the-finehttps://www.reddit.com/user/bob-the-fine

So idk if it was wrong of me. But I fumbled the dice to save a player. They were fighting the last boss of the quest. This big spider lady. And on my first 3 attacks and rolled 3 critical hits. The first 2 downed the player, and on the last one I did max damage with the strongest move. Which would have instantly killed them. This player just made a new character after the last one died And I didn’t have the heart to tell them that I kill the second one without them even having a chance to save themselves. So I just told them it was 10 damage short of killing them. Then they had this amazing sequence were they were trying to escape the boss and save themselves player. And they barely made it. And they told me it was an awesome session. Now they are pumped to go back and finish the job. But I still have this gilt about cheating. What do you guys think.

 It's nice to have a best friend who plays D&D and is also in to woodworking! [OC]

My friend has hosted our bi-weekly D&D game with friends at his house for a few years now. I get to DM and we have a fantastic group of five players. Last year he told us he was going to build us a new table... today I came in to set up for the game and was blown away. It has 5 dedicated player positions, two "guest player" positions on the corners, and the DM section is big enough for four Wyrmwood DM screen panels + my laptop in the center. 55" TV in the center is on a hydraulic vault that also supports two different 52 X 37" terrain boards (shown removed as we are starting with the TV today but will be switching to a Dwarven Forge dungeon later). Every spot is pre-wired with chargers for phones, tablets, and even a power supply for my laptop. The picture does not really do it justice as this table is BIG, and very solid (had to be assembled in the room). The top of the table is Baltic Birch and it even has Wenge trim o_O

I will happily DM from a folding card table but needless to say this is amazing!

... he's still not going to get to level up today though :-)

 My players got attached to a goblin who surrendered at 2 HP and now he's a party member
Posted: 2026-04-26T14:56:19+00:00
Author: /u/BrujahGnDhttps://www.reddit.com/user/BrujahGnD

True story from my campaign. The party was clearing out a goblin camp when one of them, a small goblin I had named Kwexx as a throwaway NPC, dropped to 2 HP and threw down his weapon screaming for mercy. I expected the players to finish him off or just move on after getting some basic info.

Instead they decided to capture him for interrogation. Then they fed him. Then they untied him "just for a minute". Then they started teaching him common. By the end of the session he was their official mascot.

Three sessions later one of my players had to drop out for personal reasons, and a new player joined the table. They asked if there was any character they could play that already had connections to the group. My party answered before I could: "You can play Kwexx."

So now Kwexx the goblin who surrendered with 2 HP is a full party member with his own character sheet, his own backstory I had to scramble to invent, and the unofficial heart of the group. As a DM I just sat there watching my players write the campaign without me.

What's your "I never planned this but the players made it canon" story? I need to know I'm not alone.

Author: /u/Njarlahttps://www.reddit.com/user/Njarla

Hello there, adventurers ! This is creature was commissioned , as you can see from the tag, and because of it, I have no backstory. I will try to summon the owner , maybe some story will appear here, maybe not. All I know- this is the main enemy for the players in some campaign. But, I can be mistaken. As for eyedrakes. Well, mhm, I know not much. Beholder drake mix, I assume. Or just a dream of other beholder. Anyways- as for the drawings, feel free to say some word if you have something to tell. Critics , sometimes ,helpful. Sometimes not XD

Next one will be fairy fighter, but I have to wait for a week before post her according to this sub rules. So see you next week. I will try not to forget to make a post.

This is all what I wanted to say here, stay safe and have a good day, adventurers!

 What’s Everyone’s Favorite Class They Have Played
Posted: 2026-04-26T14:45:32+00:00
Author: /u/PresumedPack890https://www.reddit.com/user/PresumedPack890

I have always been interested in all the different builds and characters that people can make in this game. I love exploring each classes identity mechanically. My favorite class is the wizard. I love the damage and utility and I don’t mind the trade off of low health and AC. It makes me feel like I’m constantly thinking about how to use my spells to my advantage in and out of combat, which always keeps me interested in the game and what’s going on. So what’s everyone else’s favorite class and why? I’d love to hear about an old character from your favorite class too!

 [OC] Scarecrow Ronin

Once bound to a silent field, a scarecrow awakens with borrowed breath. He takes up steel, becomes a wandering ronin, and follows a map left by hands long turned to dust. Now he walks misted cliffs and forgotten valleys, seeking the reason he was given life.

The brush they wield weaves reality itself into existence.

With every stroke, their brush reshapes the fabric of reality.

A mere stroke of their brush can conjure reality into being.

His brush is no ordinary tool, it is an instrument that manifests reality itself.

 My first charecter death. I have no more joy in my life.
Posted: 2026-04-26T09:13:47+00:00
Author: /u/ace_da_frog_childhttps://www.reddit.com/user/ace_da_frog_child

This is basically a rant about how stupid and upset I feel right now, so sorry if this isn't the right place to do it. I just need to vent

I'm a very sad person. I don't know why or what, but I just am. I get easily depressed. Until I found dnd just about 2 years ago. Then my life suddenly felt worth living. It was all i could talk about. I became obsessed, and I am willing to admit it was a bit unhealthy. Especially when it came to my characters. I saw them as my babies.

I've been through a total of 4 campaigns, the first two which I used the same charecter twice, the other two useing a different charecter.The firstt two campaigns ended because the group agreed it was garbage/other reasons(I did not agree the second time). For the next campaign, I knew I had to make a new character because I couldn't keep using the same character over and over again. Made a new character for the third campaign, which only lasted one day because the entire party died, the campaign along with it. Two weeks later, we started a new campaign, and I used that same character because why not? I only used it for one day anyway.

Fast forward to today. My charecter is level three. We are waiting in town for a payment for a mission. Everybody is doing something, si i decid it woukd be a great idea to go on a little stroll at night to find a nice lake/river ro bathe in. Thought it wouldn't be a roll playing moment because why would I need to role-play my charecter getting butt ass naked and cleaning himself, but no. My dm made it clear there would be a chance that I would get attacked. I decided to go along anyway because I didn't want it to seem like meta-gaming to make him back down and stay in town just because I was scared he'd get jumped. I get to a lake an hours travle from town and start doing my business. Dm makes three cr level 1 redbrands pull up on him. I have no weapons on him cuz hes ass crack naked, so I have to just let them go through my charecters stuff stuff, call him poor, and humiate/make fun of him. They tell me to go find a cool shiney beetle so they woukd let me live, I do it cuz I want my charecter to live, and when I come back, they are gone, and they had thrown his stuff in the water. I FORGET to do a perception check and immediately jump in to get his shit cuz he has some personal things in there and ends up getting jumped by a big ass leech or something. Not even cr1, but I panic cuz I have no weapons. Long story short, I forgot I had action surge, second wind, and rage. I wait till the last minute to use any of those, but it's too late. I use my second wind to heal myself because I was at 1 health and try to swim back to the surface, but I ran out of air. I succeeded all my saving throws, but no nat 20, so I drowned and died. Back in town, a party member finds a buried treasure with 1400 gold and a few magic items. Dm does not attack him at all on his journey. The party long rests and realizes I did not return in the night, so they assume I'm dead. The party member that found the buried treasure then proceeds to say it was a waste of gold to revive my charecter since I am only level 3(we are all level three) and majority of thr party agrees. That same party member then refuses to even go out and find my body to bury me or anything, and convinced everyone it was a waste of time.

I am now extremely depressed. This was my favorite character that I've made. I spent so much time designing his backstory, the way he looks. I felt apart of him. I felt like i had to complet his quest. It was my duty. I haven't stopped crying, and it's been 4 hours. I just feel so stupid. I had so many outs and ways to keep my charecter alive, but I panicked and shut down. I also feel stupid for being this upset about a stupid game. I don't even want to rejoin with a new charecter anymore. The thought of making a whole new character just makes my heart hurt. Besides, with the system we are doing with levels right now, I woukd be taking a ton of xp from the pot to get me back up to the same level as everyone, and that woukd significantly set the whole party back in leveling up. If I did ever come back, it would be with a soulless character. No joy in making it. Just another npc. I have nothing in me to do this anymore.

Idk. I just miss him. Stupid thing to say for someone who doesn't exist, but he felt real to me.

Rip Oskar, I'm sorry I couldn't save you.

Edit: Dm did apologize for killing me, but I didn't blame him because it was entirely my fault making stupid decisions. Thought I should clarify that, lol.

 Am i to blame for creeping a player out?
Posted: 2026-04-25T22:16:55+00:00
Author: /u/LikeAMothToAFlame69https://www.reddit.com/user/LikeAMothToAFlame69

I dm for my girlfriend and her friends, all female. They helped a little girl find her dog. And little girl took a liking to the person who brought her dog back. Called her pretty or cute i cant remember. The woman laughed and blushed a little. Fast forward about a month i find out that it make her uncomfortable and or creeped out. It was all roleplay, even had plan for girl to dress like her later on down the road. She was this girls hero.

I can not talk to her about it. Because gf told her she wouldnt say anything.

I feel terrible that she stopped playing because of me. But at same time very confused that she only saw me saying it. And not the girl. Yes i tried to do a little girls voice. Badly i guess.

But i guess i just want to know if im to blame, or if she just cant separate roleplay and real life. Oh she is very new to dnd
