Source Vienna is a 200-year-old High Elf born into a merchant family. Although she might have been more naturally drawn to music or dancing, her path changed when, around 25 years ago, her parents and newborn sister disappeared. With them gone, she took over the family’s merchant enterprise.

Originally conceived as a sorcerer, Vienna is now a paladin. She fights using a rapier.

This Gear Watch used to run supplies down the caldera in this pre squired days. They were apprenticed under a Knight of Reliard in the expedition to the Lands of Rust. The Spiral Sun shone bright on this one, as they returned with silver blade and a quick knighthood. Since they have spent many Chimes traveling as a bodyguard for the High Blades during times of unrest. Though small, the Gear Watch fight with clever tactics and determination unusual for being of their size. Enjoy my favorite if my creations.

I'm going to meet my girlfriend's dad and one of the things she told me about him is he's a DnD player. I've never played a real DnD game in my life but I have played BG3. I'm wondering if the topic comes up, should I mention it or just act like I don't know at all.

Was there any epic mic drop moment you heard a character from your table say in your session? I'm not talking about roasts or burns at someone's expense. I'm talking about lines that just hit hard when they were said by someone at your table in character

The red zones are where meteors impacted Baldurs gate the reason you ask? The guard captain keeping a shield up over the city during the shower was on our hit list and we knew he be on the roof Wyrms rock that night. This happened before they got the shield back up. I honestly love the stuff this dm does it will really shift the setting.

Honestly no idea if our bosses, trans dimensional warlords, knew this would happened they seemed surprised when we told them we were planning to kill them during a meteor shower. I really think it will speed up the process of taking over the city aswell given it will be chaos and a lot of questions for us to capitalize on.

I see a lot of posts like this on this thread, and I'm going to tell yall right now that regardless of context, the answer is always the same. You should NEVER under ANY circumstance go to your DM and say "Reddit says you're doing this thing wrong, you should DM differently." Thus, any responses on these type of posts are moot.

If you have a problem with your DM or what they are doing, talk to them. Some DMs are bad. Some DMs are good. Even for bad DMs, the solution is not to ask reddit to referee your D&D group.

Hello! I'm a 2D game artist and I started creating characters for D&D :)

This is the character brief:

He's a Dwarf Tank who's basically a walking fortress. He's not here to dodge; he's here to soak up every hit the boss throws at the party.

The Vibe: Gritty, battle-worn, and intimidating.

The Gear: I want him in heavy plate armor, dark steel with some gold trim to make it pop. Let's add some mean-looking spikes on the shoulders and gauntlets to give him that aggressive "don't touch me" look.

The Face: Classic dwarf vibes—thick red beard with a big braid in the center.

The Weapon: He's carrying a brutal morningstar. Make it look used, like it's definitely cracked a few helmets.

The "Hero" Item: The Shield

This is the most important part of the piece. He carries a massive tower shield that's almost as big as he is.

The Carving: I want a huge, stoic face carved right into the front of the shield.

The Magic: Let's make the eyes of the carving glow with a pale, eerie light. It should look like the shield is alive or possessed by an ancestor spirit.

Background: Put him on a smoky battlefield. I want to see silhouettes of broken spears and flags in the mist behind him.

What do you think? Do you think I got the description right? Would you have liked to see something different? I'd love to know what you can add to improve this drawing :)

Hey folks, I ran into a rules question during my session and wanted to get some opinions.

A Monk (level 3, using Deflect Attacks from the Player’s Handbook 2024) was hit by a melee attack from a cleric using a mace.

The total damage was 5 bludgeoning and 5 radiant from a cleric.

The feature says the Monk can reduce the attack’s total damage when the damage includes bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing.

So, the Monk reduce the entire damage (both bludgeoning + radiant), or only the bludgeoning portion?

The wording says “reduce the attack’s total damage,” but the trigger is tied to B/P/S damage being included, so we weren’t sure how to interpret that interaction.

I don't know if it makes sense for it to reduce also the radiant.

Lileas Valerian Candelier is an 18 year half-elven old abjuration wizard who is currently a student at Blackstaff Academy in Waterdeep. He's the younger child of Waylan and Maerina Candelier who were killed on the orders of Szass Tam when Lileas was just six years old. Lileas' older brother eventually joined the Red Wizards in order to get close enough to Szass Tam to destroy him once and for all, wheras Lileas spent most of his teenage years in Candlekeep with only mysterious ghostly entities to keep him company.

Lileas was my very first dnd character and holds a special place in my heart because of that. I love this artwork of him so much, it shows his personality and overall vibe very well.
