Who needs a high Charisma score when you have psionic domination? My take on a Dungeons & Dragons mind flayer pinup, complete with D20s and a healthy appetite for adventurers’ brains. Illithids usually serve an elder brain deep in the Underdark, but apparently this one found time for a little glamour. Would you roll to seduce, or does the whole “eats your brain” thing count as a dealbreaker?

I heard we were posting our Sexy Mind Flayers- here’s my beloved Mind Flayer Drag Queen OC, courtesy of the great @NickMaskellArt on Instagram- he does great work!

Does she show up to provide helpful fashion tips? Or is she here to show off her stage skills, with just a modicum of mind control? Depends on the day- either way she is here to both FLAY and SLAY.

Anyone have a suggestion for her stage name? I’m torn between Demi Plane and Polly Morph….

Really enjoyed working on this project with a bit of a different setting! Here’s some basic info:

Aasimar paladin - once exiled for defying her order. She’s a principled leader but her confidence too often outweighs her judgment.

Tiefling rogue - formerly a notorious gambler. He is a charming troublemaker and constantly finds ways to distract himself from the immediate task.

Firbolg druid - raised in an isolated forest commune. She’s gentle, and endlessly fascinated but terrified by civilization. Spends an unhealthy amount of time talking to her bird.

Half elf bard - formerly a well-known street performer who fell off after some controversy with the public. Quick-witted, and keeps the group entertained with songs.

The four are crossing a very large lake in search of a lost shrine, blissfully unaware that sirens are stalking their boat.

Ok question for DMs or rule lawyers. This situation happened some years ago and it just popped into my head again and I want solid 3rd party view on this.

The situation: I casted Guardian of Faith, a 4th level cleric spell, on the roof of a moving train. The DM said the spell slipped off the roof and lands on the ground leaving it behind as I'm still on the roof of the moving train.

The spell should have stayed on the roof of the moving train with me, correct?

Niamh'arin "Niamh" Elyandris is my character for a campaign I'm in with a few of my work colleagues. It's the first time I'm playing dnd outside of my regular group and most of the other players don't have a lot of dnd experience, so I went for a more simple backstory for this character.

Niamh is an aasimar and the DM allowed me to tweak her aesthetic a bit by adding some elven heritage to her. Her mother is an aasimar and her father is a half-elf. On paper she's simply an aaaimar but she has the half-elf ears which I think is a cute touch.

Niamh's story is basically that she's a student at an arcane school and at the end of her studies she has to go on a practical mission. She just arrived in the city where the other characters already live because she was told to meet someone there who would let her know what her task is. She and the other characters met by accident and immediately got entangled into some mystery which seems to be comnected with the person in charge of Niamh's mission.

In addition Niamh's personal objective is to find her best friend who's gone missing. Said friend gifted her a magical compass which always points in the direction of said friend, and the compass has stopped working and Niamh doesn't know where her friend is. I'm already curious to see how the disappearance of Niamh's friend will tie into the overall plot and how everything's gonna develop.

There are 2 new players out of 4 total at my table that barely look at their character and don't know what they do.

One's a barbarian and I often have to nudge them to do their second attack or remind them to look at everything they can do. I'm familiar with the path of storm giant barbarian so it's easy for me to do so.

However we have a paladin which I don't know what it does by memory and neither does he! Dude often comes in saying man I haven't even looked at my character since we last played.

We haven't played in almost 2 months due to scheduling issues and I've messaged the group chat multiple times to please know what your character does any questions reach out to me.

Just sucks because I spend all this time, effort and money to make a good game and players can't spend 15 minutes to go over their character.

This is my level 21 Circle of the Moon druid—a character I’ve been playing in the same campaign for six years. I drew this myself. Over that time, she’s managed to read every single book that grants stat bonuses. When I first created her, I was a complete beginner and didn’t realize that Constitution is arguably the second most important stat for a druid. I figured it didn’t matter, since using "Wild Shape" replaces your Constitution score with that of the beast you transform into. My Dungeon Master (DM) was also a beginner back then, so they didn’t offer any advice on how to build the character more effectively.

Fortunately, over the course of the campaign, she managed to get her hands on an amulet that boosts her Constitution to 19—which is absolutely critical, given that maintaining most of the best druid spells requires concentration. She also has some magical tattoos from *Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything*, though they’re hidden beneath her clothes.

We’ve now reached the final battles, and I’m going to miss all of this dearly—but that’s just how the game goes.

Overly condensed backstory:

She's a npc from my post apocalyptic 1800s themed campaign. A once great hero, Elisabeth Dumont was destined for greatness. She rose through the ranks of the military remnants like a bat out of hell, fighting tooth and nail to earn her promotions. Elisabeth didn't want power or fame. She simply saw potential to restore the world back to it's orginal state through the soldiers she lead. Simply put- she was the top candidate to replace the previous commander of the remnants

Then it happened, Jackal-Sur the Red Wake attacked. Elizabeth and her men tried to defend their camp against the dragon. Gods- they really did try. It was a bloodbath, muskets and magic bounced off of Jackal-Sur's hide as it sundered flesh from bone. There was only one surivour, the burnt and charred body of Elizabeth.

The doctors tried everything but the cursed dragon burns refused to heal. There wasn't anything much to do but to bandage her and make a mask designed after her face. Her once goal of becoming commander was swapped on it's head. It was hell. She is a puppet and she knows it. People elected her not because she was a war hero. They elected her so it'll be easier to act behind her back. Multiple people used her voice to get gains while she was relearning to speak. Hosted important meetings while her assistant tried to help her out of bed. The worse part? She watched with unblinking eyes as her men grew drunk with power.

But perhaps with some help from a certain group of adventurers she'll clean up her court and get revenge...

Inspirations for her were Joshua Graham (Fallout), Baldwin IV, and Griffith (Berserk).

Her backstory is admittedly depressing but I dunno. Not everyone needs to have a happy life I guess lol.

The description of character is on the pic but...I'll write it down here again

• Name: Bulwark
• Title: The Unyielding Rampart
• Party: The Dragoneers
• Role: Tank / Vanguard

Can a wall feel rage? Oh, it can. That wall is Bulwark, one of the two notorious members of the dragon-hunting party known as the Dragoneers.

Massive and heavily built, he stands before dragons like an immovable fortress -unyielding and infuriatingly difficult to bring down. Once his shield is raised and his spear leveled, there is only one direction he knows: FORWARD. Fast or slow makes no difference. His feet will never retreat.

He is one of two members of dragon hunting party called The Dragoneers. Hope you guys enjoy it!
