 Advice please: how to tell friend that she gets too high to join my group.
Posted: 2026-08-22T14:22:01+00:00
Author: /u/Mother-Opinion3010https://www.reddit.com/user/Mother-Opinion3010

Hi there. I'm looking for some advice from 3rd parties on this as i feel I'm a little to close to be objective. I've been playing ttrpgs since the late 90's and had moments where I love it and that I hate it; I got into my current group in 2016 after the game took off into the mainstream. My group is great and very welcoming to noobies.

My best friend had heard me talk about the games I play/run for years and last year asked me to show her the ropes. I was thrilled as I had tried many times before, so I set up a one on one style 1per month campaign type thing. It had been a year and she has picked up some stuff, be not a lot. In our last six sessions she was high when I got there or in the process of getting high. I still played with her, but she seemed to forget everything she had up to that point and kept getting confused/distracted. She asked me before I left a few days ago when I might introduce her to the group I usually play with. I kinda brushed it off with us being at the end of a high level campaign (not a lie) and she seemed to understand.

What I didn't tell her is, that I don't really want to let her meet my group because we have a rule that you can't be too high/drunk during a session. Your still allowed to stay and take notes/sober up, but your character is removed from the session is some way. This has only happened twice. The idea behind it is simple, if your unable to contribute in any functional way, you shouldn't. All five of us are working adults with families and very little free time, so we take game days serious. My friend never gets anything but too high and doesn't have a job. (Everyone else takes care of her in her family.)

I've talked with her through the years about how much she uses and have even help make/driven her to therapy appointments. I've tried to get her involved with other things so she doesn't get high as offen or as much, but nothing has seemed to get through to her. Any advice on how to get through to her or the explain it in a way that doesn't hurt her feelings?

TLDR: Friend gets too high to join my group, how can I tell her?

 Drew my DND pc [OC]
Posted: 2026-08-22T14:34:24+00:00
Author: /u/moonduvethttps://www.reddit.com/user/moonduvet

Drew my dnd pc during a time in the campaign where he was being haunted by an evil spirit.

For context: The party had to undergo a trial that would cost them their memories if they lost so my PC declined to join for personal reasons. But while he was on his way back to base, he was attacked by an evil spirit that attached to him after the attack. This was a really hard time for my PC because the evil spirit would take any opportunity to berate and belittle him which caused a lot of angst for both my pc and the other party members. Everything worked out though because after a few ups and downs, my pc was freed from the evil spirit.

Anyways, really wanted to draw what happened and had lots of fun designing what I think the evil spirit would have looked like.

 Advanced player in a beginner party
Posted: 2026-08-22T14:00:58+00:00
Author: /u/ElizaV2008https://www.reddit.com/user/ElizaV2008

Hello! I am running my first campaign and I have this new player who's quite advanced, knows a lot spells skills, and classes Ive never heard of. (I've only played in two campaigns prior to this too)

He wants to play an elderitch knight fighter/armorer multiclass. We're only going to lvl six so he plans to do 3 for 3 in the end. Is that an Overpowered multiclass for a beginner campaign?

Note: Over half of my players have never played DND before

 [OC] [COMM] Elemira Cyrill, occultist witch. PC for a friend's campaign.
Posted: 2026-08-22T00:09:58+00:00
Author: /u/spitespitfirehttps://www.reddit.com/user/spitespitfire

Hello everyone! Thank you for looking at my work!

Elemira was one of the most simple, yet charming characters i've ever designed. Unintentionally i think she ended up reminding me of a hex maniac. And i love how cute she looks.

She is an iccultist with witch (Green coven) as a subclass

essentially is a cleric adjacent mid-range caster with ties to nature and hag magic.

A spitfire, shows her emotions outwardly. Chaotic good alignment, deeply passionate about her friends. Loves to fight and express mastery of magic. Wants to help people to the point of her own detriment.

Parents sold her to an arch hag as an infant for unknown reasons. Raised by this arch hag and pushed to her limits through pain. Essentially torture and magical training. Arch hag used modify memory to remove the trauma from the child. Arch hag entered the fogs of Barovia seeking the power of immortality, and never returned. Elemira entered the fogs to find her, and got a lot more than she bargained for.

She also has a simple, lovingly stitched tiny purple purse of holding on her hip, which i think sets the whole thing off nicely.

Her bonded familiar is a white raven with a single red eye. Her partner of body and soul for life. His name is Grim

Right now commissions are open for september. For any questions, you can send me a personal message!

 Balasar The Dragonborn has a Night Out [OC] [ART]
Posted: 2026-08-22T13:16:13+00:00
Author: /u/myNamesBenhttps://www.reddit.com/user/myNamesBen

Though his towering, crimson-scaled frame, gleaming heavy armor, and sharp reptilian features make most tavern patrons instinctively reach for their daggers, Balasar is far more interested in sharing a drink than starting a brawl. He can often be found occupying a sturdy corner table in local taverns, enthusiastically ruining a mug or two partly through his formidable dwarven-ale tolerance, and partly through accidentally crushing the occasional pewter handle with his sheer, unbridled strength.

Beneath his intimidating exterior lies a deeply kind-hearted soul with an almost gentle disposition. Balasar frequently uses his size to step between hot-headed brawlers, buys rounds for weary travelers, and happily listens to the locals' troubles. Those patient enough to look past his dragonborn visage find a loyal companion whose breath weapon is reserved strictly for protecting the innocent, or relighting a friend's pipe.

 [Art] Vaeril, requested illustration :)
Posted: 2026-08-22T17:08:10+00:00
Author: /u/Mesenoth_theartisthttps://www.reddit.com/user/Mesenoth_theartist

My client wanted a tarot style illustration of Vaeril, the drow god of Light, Redemption and Liberation. I have the feeling they requested this for their significant other's character, which is the cutest thing. He was trapped under his enemy's domain for decades until he was set free, hence the chains and angry look in his face. His enemy was a spider drow goddess and unfair ruler of the drow. Makes me think of Lolth, but I think their campaign doesn't necesarily follow the exact lore and names of DnD universe.

Anyways, I had a blast painting him and I had the oportunity to do life drawings of a muscular model, he was kind enough to pose during his workout to help me understand what's going on with the back muscles :P. My mentor also helped by pointing out small flaws in the anatomy and I love how it came out!

 How powerful would be a magic item that allows for a second reaction?
Posted: 2026-08-22T14:26:37+00:00
Author: /u/halfpastneinhttps://www.reddit.com/user/halfpastnein

I suggested this as a possible reward to our DM. It's his first campaign DMing so he's unsure. Me too actually!

would be used along the polearm master feat

it's a homebrew campaign/world with some third party stuff. the group's level 6, about to face a boss fight and likely level up after. DM mentioned it in passing. we're 5 people amongst 2 wizards.

edit: for more context: I'm playing a fighter/artificier so a half caster. with PAM I would mostly use a second reaction for an additional, conditional weapon attack or an occasional absorb elements.

and big thanks to everyone commenting and being helpful.

 [OC][Art] Pandora, Dark Elf Artificer
Posted: 2026-08-22T17:43:11+00:00
Author: /u/tenthouzinhttps://www.reddit.com/user/tenthouzin

"Pandora is an old, mysterious and eccentric dark elf artificer from a forgotten land. After a dire accident she lost her body and now resides in a hat, through which she controls the puppet bodies she makes. She comes off as cold and detached from the world at large, with her only obvious interest being the pursuit of crafting, especially arcane items."

Had a fun time drawing this character, it's not often I get to render a 4 armed puppet elf.
