 A drawing I did of my first ever DnD character Athalia [oc]
Posted: 2026-01-27T14:11:00+00:00
Author: /u/Artisticjadehttps://www.reddit.com/user/Artisticjade

Drew this about a month ago but thought I’d share this here aswell 🩷

Athalia is a well known ranger and natural leader in her region, trusted by her people and respected by nearly everyone who knows her. She knows the land better than anyone and has strong survival instincts. As a child, she survived a war that took her family and escaped through the forest, saving another child named Thora along the way. The things she went through taught her to stay alert act quickly and take responsibility when others hesitate

 What do you do when someone invites a buddy, and they turn out to be a closet fascist?
Posted: 2026-01-27T10:09:21+00:00
Author: /u/DoomedKibletshttps://www.reddit.com/user/DoomedKiblets

i am going to keep this short and to the point.
’m legit not sure how to deal with this situation. played with my group of five for four years online, and a new guy joined a few months ago. our group is mostly open, with a moderate spectrum of political views but nothing abrasive.
Fastforward to now, and the dude turned out to be extreme right, and fascist. several of us are not okay with this, but others don’t quite see his behavior and statements the same way, especially the person who invited him to the group. our group doesn’t have a dedicated dm, so we don’t really have a "boss" per say. I don’t know what to do, but I’m deeply bothered by this situation and even considering leaving the group.

the heck do you do in this situation?

 Can a "Command" spell be a truth serum?
Posted: 2026-01-27T14:07:13+00:00
Author: /u/-_Vesper_-https://www.reddit.com/user/-_Vesper_-

Recently, one of my players tried to use a spell to make an NPC tell the truth about his intentions. It seemed to me that the spell shouldn't work that way, but of course I also didn't really want to reveal the secret.

He said he used the word "speak," and I, as the NPC, just started saying everything in a row, and then said that this happened because the player didn't specify what he needed to say. This, of course, upset my group, but they moved on.

Then I thought for a long time about how it wasn't very fun and just upset the players, maybe the spell should have worked.

Who do you think is right in this situation?

 Low Vision Dice Set Recommendation [OC]
Posted: 2026-01-27T06:23:53+00:00
Author: /u/Annual_Guitar9897https://www.reddit.com/user/Annual_Guitar9897

I’m considered low vision and often have a hard time seeing the numbers on my rolls. High contrast colored dice help to an extent, but only so much. Wasn’t finding any good options online to purchase, but my awesome DM found and gifted me a Vortex Mega-hedral Bright Green/black 7-Die Set and they’re awesome! Large with great color contrast. I wanted to share in case anyone out there is in the same boat! Happy gaming, everyone! (Photo of my old dice vs new dice for comparison)

 [Art] Different Sizes, Same Journey
Posted: 2026-01-27T14:48:58+00:00
Author: /u/MisosileBusherhttps://www.reddit.com/user/MisosileBusher

This illustration shows my halfling PC walking side by side with her party member.

The medium-sized adventurer next to him is a friend’s PC from the same table. Due to the composition, only part of them is visible, but they are very much present—walking the same road, as companions do.

Rather than depicting a dramatic battle or a heroic climax, I wanted to capture a quiet moment: just adventurers moving forward together. To me, these in-between moments are where bonds are formed and trust grows. Different sizes, same journey—and that’s exactly the kind of story I love telling through D&D.

 Forgot to prep. Accidentally created a halfling crime syndicate. Players loved it.
Posted: 2026-01-26T21:38:34+00:00
Author: /u/confused_goozehttps://www.reddit.com/user/confused_gooze

So we’re only two sessions into a new campaign.
Session 1 I prepped my ass off — went fine.
Session 2 I forgot to prep at all — went way better.
Apparently I’m a wizard when I panic.

One player has a backstory where he’s wanted by a faction that owns the starting town. They check the guild for wanted posters to see if they are looking for him, so I pretend to check my notes (there are no notes) and make some up. I mention a halfling thief with a small bounty.

Later they go shopping. It’s been too quiet so I roll a d20 on my nonexistent encounter table and say the party’s gold holder needs to roll Perception. He fails. Another player rolls and succeeds.

Boom: chase scene. Dex saves, parkour, the whole thing.

They ask who they’re chasing. First thing that pops into my head: halfling. The table immediately assumes it’s the halfling from the wanted posters.

I say it isn’t. They decide she must WORK for the halfling on the poster.
Sure. Yes-and. Let’s go.

They interrogate her, follow leads, and suddenly we’re in the headquarters of a previously non-existent halfling crime organization having an awesome fight. One of four players gets absolutely ganked by thugs with pack tactics and goes down. The rest end the fight on fumes and barely pull it off.

They loot, heal, and find a door. Rogue asks if it’s trapped.

It wasn’t.
But now it is.

He rolls Investigation. Success.
He rolls to disarm. Success.
The table erupts. I pretend to be annoyed they “saw through my clever trap.” They feel like geniuses.

Session ends. Everyone tells me they loved it.

They will never know I bullshitted my way through a 6-hour session on zero prep. I am the king of bullshit sitting on my throne of turds.

Anyone else accidentally build entire plot arcs from a single failed perception check?

 DND-related conspiracy theories for a lowish INT character?
Posted: 2026-01-27T07:36:11+00:00
Author: /u/KindofPolitePersonhttps://www.reddit.com/user/KindofPolitePerson

Hey everyone,

I'm creating a human fighter with an INT stat of 9 and I wanted to come up with a way to this out in RP. The solution I came up with is that he acts normal but mentions that he believes in conspiracy theories and random dumb stuff.

The only thing I've come up with so far is that he thinks all cats are female and all dogs are male but I was hoping someone could provide a more DND related one.
