I have been playing in a game for the better part of a year now that I found through reddit and I have truly enjoyed it but recently I have been busy with real life stuff and haven’t had time to see what has been going on in the discord that the group is using besides the weekly check in’s for who is playing that week.

To my surprise, I find that the DM has posted the past three weekly sessions as a podcast on Spotify. To the DM’s credit he did mention that he was going to record the sessions so that if anyone missed them they would be better able to catch up, as well as gave people the chance to ask for that not to happen.

However he didn’t mention anything of Spotify nor any public platform that they were to be posted on. At the time I assumed that they would just be posted in the discord or something like a private youtube video so I didn’t care.

This wasn’t anywhere in the boundaries that were set at the start of the campaign and I personally feel like my trust has been violated.

I don’t know how I should address this, I don’t want to go full scorched earth but I know that I want to have the three sessions that I was a part of to be stripped from Spotify

Hi everyone! I got told to post this here by other Redditors. I make wooden books and used to share my work on here. As a result, a set designer from Paramount Studios got in touch and asked me if I'd be interested in making a prop for this film. I never would've gotten the opportunity to do something like this if it wasn't for all the support I received here. Thank you to everyone that liked my posts and created this opportunity. It was such a fun process to make a book for a film and so surreal seeing something I had made on the big screen. As gallery posts aren't allowed you can see the the book here www.toebeanbindery.com/commissions

I don't know if you're familiar with this type of tournament; basically, two teams compete against each other, it's like jousting, but instead of a horse, you use a boat. There are rowers and an attacker.

So there were two PCs who had to succeed on a DC10 athletics roll; if both succeed, the attacker has an advantage.

Next, the attackers make an attack roll against the opponent. The PC can make a Dexterity saving throw to avoid the opponent's attack. A tie can result if both or neither team succeed.

They formed two teams, and each team won two matches before the final head-to-head. The festival was such a success that the Party decided to return to the city next year to defend their title!

(The photo is not [OC] it's to show what a naval joust is)

My 10yo son wants to start playing D&D this summer and my husband and I are totally on board with this but have no clue where to start! Any pointers or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Sincerely,

Just trying to be a cool mom..

Sylvie Wyldhart grew up as Daughter and Heir to a famous family of ranchers and spent most of her childhood with all kinds of animals, learning to understand and train them from very early on. As she grew older the Bronze Dragon Lord decided to offer her entry into their knights, where she became a squire at first, eventually graduating to a fully-fledged knight. Then one day, as an early forebearer of the Calamity to come, most of the cattle in the capital fell ill and died. The Wyldhart family was blamed and was to be executed. As her parents were about to be incinerated by Dragonfire, Sylvie lept from the rafters, taking the burst of fire for herself and fainted.

The next thing she can remember is her waking up in a field, far from her home. She was disfigured, burnt and had no idea where she was. And if she even still had a home. She wandered for a few days, before finding a small village that offered to take her in. She decided to hide her old life and fabricated a story of who she was, calling herself Pyre and keeping herself as hidden as possible. But as opposing forces are attacking the small village in the wake of a worldwide calamity, they decide to take up arms for the only home they have right now…

She is a human with an athletic, female build. They are in their late twenties. They wear a lofty, white button-up blouse below a green cloth vest with their families crest on it. They wear brown cloth pants and a brown leather belt as well as black leather boots. Their clothing is ripped and burnt in some places due to the dragonfire blast and their time in the wilderness over the last few days. On top of the clothing they also wear a bronze scale mail shirt, fixed with leather straps and bronze pauldrons. The armor is adorned with a knights emblem, showing a dragons head. The armor is charred and sooted, but not torn.

Almost their entire body bears burn marks, with only their right arm from the shoulder down and the right side of their head being mostly unaffected. The left side of their scalp is scarred and the hair is burnt away, their left eye has gone white and almost blind, their left ear is deformed and the left side of their lips looks cracked. Their hair on the right side of their head is a hazel-ish brown and goes down to about the height of their armpits, their right eye color is brown. They wear their hair straight down.

For equipment they carry an assortment of pouches and pockets on their belt, with herbs and bandages for immediate medical attention. They also carry a small worn out handaxe, a carving knife and a rusted, sharpened metal pole as a spear. The weapons all look like theyre highly improvised and are not made for combat.

I’ve wanted to play for years, but I’ve never had people to play with. Now I have a group, but no one else has played before either. They all want me to be DM and create the story because they all think I’d be best at it. I want this to work out really badly. Please help direct me to resources or explain in the comments how I could go about learning what I need to know to create a campaign, and what the general structure of a campaign looks like.

Keep in mind I know virtually nothing about DND, but I have played Baldur’s gate 3, and understand the premise of how the game is played by rolling dice and stuff.

Context: This is a relatively new group. A few months ago a coworker of mine wanted to run a homebrew campaign set in the Neverwinter Wood for a couple of his friends who had never played before. I brought in another friend of mine who I have been playing with for years. My friend and I decided to play two halflings in a trench coat and be the party’s rogue/muscle/slapstick routine. The new players’ characters were a dogfolk druid and a half-elf bard. This was maybe the 6th or 7th session we’ve played.

We found an ancient moon elf tomb underground, and after killing the spirit who haunted the place, decided to investigate the area for any secrets. One room was magically sealed off behind an elven statue, and the other contained a sarcophagus where the ghosts’ remains sat, surrounded by ancient elven silver. As we walked into the other room, the NPC we were escorting reminded us not to touch any silver or we would be cursed.

Being the troublemakers we are, of course we couldn’t resist scooping up as much silver as we could. There was what looked like hundreds of gold’s worth. The bard tried to cast a sleep spell to stop us, but it only worked on me, and not my halfling twin brother. Sure enough, after we left the room, the Druid cast a spell and discovered that we, indeed, had been cursed. I sincerely thought this would be the most unexpected event of the session.

While the halflings bickered with the irritated NPC who was just trying to rescue his wife, the bard and druid discovered they were able to bypass whatever magical seal was on the other door from the tomb, and entered. They walked about 10 minutes through an expansive cave network, until they came to a cliff’s edge. In the massive cavern, 1000 feet below, was a giant, magical tree, which looked to be rotting from the roots.

The bard and the Druid sat, contemplating their next move. The bard pulled out his lyre and plucked a soothing tune. Were they supposed to save the tree? How would they get down? Was it surrounded by magic?

And without further explanation, the dog folk Druid stood up, handed the bard his prized “vanilla truffle,” and stepped off the ledge, arms outstretched. The bard sat there in absolute shock, not understanding what he just witnessed.

The DM let him roll a dexterity check, then described him falling through the canopy of the tree, smacking branches and getting scratched up along the way, and then free falling another 500 feet to the base of the cavern. He died instantly.

I’m not sure what the player was thinking, I think he was trying to somehow save the rot from the tree? Maybe he was just bored. Either way, it was one of the most memorable player deaths I’ve ever witnessed. I will never forget the spontaneous suicide of Screaming Beagle.

TLDR; during a dungeon crawl, a new player decided to throw himself off the ledge of an underground ravine towards a magical tree for seemingly no reason.
