 Does anyone have any experience with having Rune Knights turn into Mech Knights instead of Giants?[OC] [Art]
Posted: 2026-08-25T07:28:09+00:00
Author: /u/_Rusty_Lynx_https://www.reddit.com/user/_Rusty_Lynx_

Question is in the Title

I will be starting to play in a campaign soon (5.5)
And when I read about the Rune Knight I remember this ancient Game called „White Knight Chronicles“ and I thought

I could do that

So, I wanted to know if anyone has any experience or maybe tried something like this out yet and also how you guys incorporated it into the lore

Also added a sketch of my Charakter and his Armor Suit idea

 [OC] Merlis

My recent personal artwork of my half-elf rogue character Merlis. I wanted to make and artwork with a warm autumn feeling contradicting the plot of the image itself, while also trying to overcome my avoidance of ornaments and clothing details. I wanted these details and ornaments to allude to his character story and personality. I do not have a fully fleshed out backstory for him yet, but he is someone who seems to be pretty easy going, and willing to cooperate yet not very open about himself as a person.

 I Think I Broke My Party
Posted: 2026-08-25T07:21:49+00:00
Author: /u/Sankyo8Zhttps://www.reddit.com/user/Sankyo8Z

I DM a home-brew campaign using the Obojima setting following a Monk halfling, a Paladin frog, and a Bard elf. One of the villain NPCs revealed to the monk that their life has been a lie, and they were an experiment to see if a spirit being could be merged with a mortal. This gave them various powers, one of which was a wind vortex that acted like the spirit guardian spell, but didn't prevent allies from also taking damage.

A massive fight in a monastery broke out and the players made some bad calls that resulted in heavy damage. Eventually the Paladin was downed by archers and failed two death saving throws. His rival NPC (who hadn't managed to land a hit on him the whole battle due to bad rolls) picked him up and threw him into the monk's wind vortex, killing him. Bard was also beaten unconscious and barely managed to hang on as the monk cleaned up the rest of the enemies. The Monk couldn't help but blame herself for the loss of her friend.

But then the Paladin woke up on a river raft (his oath was to the river of life) where he talked with a ferryman about his journey, the friends he made, and the regrets he had. His biggest sadness, was never getting to find his lost family. Him saying this out loud had the table in tears.

But before he said his final goodbye, the bard found himself in a dream, with an angel and a devil. Throughout the campaign, they had been watching him as entertainment. This bard was a narcissist and a liar, who would cheat at any opportunity to get ahead. The angel and the devil would consistently appear to him, as they were taking bets on whether he would become a hero, or fall to villainy. The angel then offered him the ultimate redemption: to die in the Paladin's place, so he could live and hopefully find his family. It was a hard back and forth. The bard weighed his options as the angel and the devil pulled him both ways. But after all the scummy things he did, all the trouble he dragged the party through, he decided to give up his life for the Paladin.

Nobody expected this. Everyone, myself included, couldn't stop crying as after an already heartbreaking goodbye to the Paladin, we now had to say another goodbye to the Bard feeling the full weight of his sacrifice. And in one finally send off, the bard got to meet with the NPC's they failed to save earlier in the campaign, who told him he was forgiven for everything.

After I closed the session we all sat in silence until the Paladin finally said, "God damn it. You can't make me cry like this. I got to go to work tomorrow."

 [Art] [Comm] Malvion, Drow Barbarian
Posted: 2026-08-25T01:57:28+00:00
Author: /u/tomalbertrhttps://www.reddit.com/user/tomalbertr

Meet Mal’vion, a Drow Barbarian whose connection to the Underdark runs deeper than he’d like to admit. The scars across his face are remnants of an old ritual, one that left him carrying something monstrous within him. When his rage takes over, that monster emerges, transforming him into a massive Drider. Now he wanders the surface, trying to understand the curse within him while learning to turn it into a weapon rather than letting it control him. Art made by me for a player's original character.

Hello! I've recently opened my commissions, and I'm currently doing headshot and bust up drawings of DnD OCs or characters! I recently got into DnD, and I'm starting with smaller pieces since full body is a lot right now and I'm still new to DnD

Prices vary based on what you ask for, and you can find that information on my socials (TikTok & Instagram) at Khukeii, or at [khukeiicoms@gmail.com](mailto:khukeiicoms@gmail.com) :>

I'd love to draw any OCs or characters and help bring them to life just a little more!

 In Your Opinion What's The Most Versatile Spell?
Posted: 2026-08-25T02:29:01+00:00
Author: /u/Stunning-Sentence152https://www.reddit.com/user/Stunning-Sentence152

With the (I'm gonna say hundreds?) of spells in DnD now I'd like to hear what you all consider to be the most versatile spell that every mage should try to have prepared at all times.

This can obviously include anything from any edition within reason lol

 Writing an adventure, but trying to think of the reason how two NPCs in a fight are both still “good guys.”
Posted: 2026-08-25T13:31:22+00:00
Author: /u/Jabber-Wookiehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Jabber-Wookie

The characters find two towns that are angry at each other. They are about to start a war. I want the characters to listen to both sides and find it’s a situation where they can’t label one side as good and the other bad.

I’m trying to find a case where the characters might disagree on what to do. I thought of a case where it’s a complicated “We did A because you did B because we did C . . .” but I would prefer a simple idea that has no simple solution.

Anyone know a good idea of a disagreement with no easy ethical answer?

My review of Arcana Unleashed (no AI was used in any of the images or writing for this article). Wizards of the Coast did provide me with a review copy but I was otherwise not compensated.
