Ich war am Samstag auf der Veranstaltung Dungeons, Decks und Drachenblut des Vereins Föhringer G'sindl in #unterföhring.

Es war meine erste Rollenspiel / Pen and Paper Convention und ich muss sagen, ich war schon lange nicht mehr so positiv gestresst vom Teilnehmen am Programm wie da. Hab mich am Vormittag spontan einer Runde #Daggerheart angeschlossen, den frühen Nachmittag war ich dann mit dem Bemalen einer #TableTop Figur beschäftigt und dann musste ich quasi schon zu meiner Runde #DnD5 hetzen, dazwischen Getränke, Essen und Toilettengänge nicht vergessen.

Vorteil war auch, dass es nicht gar so krass überlaufen war. Außer beim Malstand, da musste man ggf. warten. Ein anderer Besucher erzählte, dass eine vergleichbare Veranstaltung in Februar in #Germering heillos überlaufen war.

Ich kenne bisher vor allem nur #Anime Conventions und bin mittlerweile an einem Punkt, dass ich mich da meistens langweile, wenn ich nicht Helfer an einem Stand oder beim Con-Team bin.

"Erde & Wasser" ist ein Megadungeon für D&D 5E 2014, das ich seit Jahren schreibe und playteste: 38 Level mit über 350 Räumen, Pointcrawls mit über 100 Locations, viele Storyfäden einer tiefen Sandbox.

Jetzt wird es in einer Serie von Booklets veröffentlicht.
#1 erscheint in Kürze:
- Der Einstieg und Hintergrundinformationen
- Das Dorf Carfang
- Ein Pointcrawl mit 22 Locations in den Bergen von Yar

Mehr bald hier und unter https://kritischerfehlschlag.de/erde-wasser/.

Today I realized that the way current D&D does multiclassing is the single biggest design flaw in the system.

So damit sich meine beiden Spielerinnen orientieren können, hab ich die letzten 2 Stunden in Blender verbracht. Die haben beide Baldur's Gate 3 Erfahrung. Hoffe es ist nützlich. Aber es hat auch einfach so Spass gemacht, je mehr ich Blender kennen lerne, desto mehr freue ich mich.

#rpgaday2024

My most played #TTRPG is, without contest, my 8-years long campaign of #DnD in a #MTG setting. We played two generations on three planes (Mirodin, Zendikar & Inistrad) and made the transition from #Dnd4 to #DnD5.

As a GM I sometime like to dive in other setting and game but the group always ask for more of the MTG campaign. Next season is already booked for September.

Suplemento increíblemente jugoso sobre los vampiros en #DnD.
Y muy tentador para adaptar a #dnd5...

As a result of a lot of people referring to gge D&D fifth edition era as a "Golden Age for #ttrpgs" I find myself in the unfortunate position of having to ask: What the actual fuck are you on about? #DnD #DnD5 #OSR https://tasker.land/2024/01/16/not-golden-like-gold-golden-like-a-stone/

#DecemberDiceDiary2023 Day 29!

"Describe your most memorable critical success or failure!"

With a new group as the DM, one of the players managed to crit on trying to throw a severed zombie arm at another zombie. This lead to the arm going through the other zombies eye, destroying the brain and creature.

It was one of the first times they just tried something beyond "I use my dagger" and it worked out wonderfully. The players still remember it today.

#DecemberDiceDiary2023 Day 25!

"Share a heartwarming in-game story from your adventures!"

It went from heart wrenching to heart warming. A former soldier artificer accidentially killed a little critter friend of the party. It could be saved, but they were deeply shook. An NPC they had saved took the time to reassure them and reaffirm them, appealing to their sense of duty and discipline, while showing empathy.

@HeyeBodo

We reconnected with & old #ttrpg group with some new friends & played #dnd5 throughout the year, consistently. Everyone's dedicated & the role playing is great. The campaign is Storm King's Thunder, soon to be finished (we #play tonight!), & after we will delve into The Wild Beyond the Witchlight.

New to me was following & connecting with the #community here on Mastodon, discovering such diverse, unique & fun projects.

First appearing to the mass market fanbase within 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons in Eberron: Rising from the Last War and now in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, the Artificer is a kind of techno-wizard. For someone without previous connections to Eberron, the setting that exploded on the scene in 3rd edition, the Artificer confused me.

The fiction upon which it is based seemingly is all self-referring, or modern fantastical. There’s a subclass that essentially reads as if it is Iron Man ported back into D&D for example. Whereas most D&D classes stretch into the myths and legends that predate the game itself, the Artificer does not seem to have that convention.

Oddly enough, it was a Christmas movie that reminded me of Artificers within our lore. There are magical techno-wizards within holiday tales. From Christmas elves of tradition, to the inventors of Jingle Jangle, you can find your inspiration for your next Artificer.

These creators take the mundane and imbue it with magic. They create automatons, magically tinker, infuse items, and all the other things you expect from the description of an Artificer.

Masters of invention, artificers use ingenuity and magic to unlock extraordinary capabilities in objects. They see magic as a complex system waiting to be decoded and then harnessed in their spells and inventions. You can find everything you need to play one of these inventors in the next few sections.

Artificers use a variety of tools to channel their arcane power. To cast a spell, an artificer might use alchemist’s supplies to create a potent elixir, calligrapher’s supplies to inscribe a sigil of power, or tinker’s tools to craft a temporary charm. The magic of artificers is tied to their tools and their talents, and few other characters can produce the right tool for a job as well as an artificer.

From DnDBeyond.

Opening up a vision of an Artificer to include these amazing gift-gives also helps change how you approach D&D. A character of kindness and generosity, or that thieving Gustafson, expands the stories you can tell. When you visit the village you can brighten the spirits of the community via your infusions and spells.

It may be a Hallmark/Lifetime/FreeForm/UPTv cliche, but there is magic in the holiday season. Incorporating the magic of elves, toys, inventors, Santa, and others into your D&D characters and stories means adding more joy to a game that so often centers violence.

Generosity and joy exist in D&D (even in Barovia). Your Artificer has the power to amplify those feelings (while also being an effective combatant, but there are many places that talk about optimizing in those ways). There are 1,000 times a thousand stories available at any table and any session. Adding a little Christmas to your Artificer is a way to discover more of them.

Be Jeronicus, Jessica, Journey, or even Gustafson. Be Alabaster Snowball, Bushy Evergreen, Pepper Minstix, Shinny Upatree, Sugarplum Mary, or Wunorse Openslae. Roll dice and tell stories about the power of Artifice.

Was kriegen andere RPGs besser hin als das derzeit beliebteste Rollenspiel und was kann #dnd5 sich für eine neue Edition von ihnen abschauen?: Bei @orkenspaltertv hat man sich darüber Gedanken gemacht:

#pnpde #5e

Ich habe gerade das Projekt 'A Life well lived' von #Cubicle7 für #DnD5 auf #Kickstarter unterstützt. Es geht um Lifepath-Systeme, Downtime-Aktivitäten und das Vermächtnis von Charakteren. Alles interessante Dinge, ich gerne mehr einbauen würde. Und da der Verlag eigentlich größtenteils gute Arbeit macht, gebe ich diesem Buch gerne eine Chance. #pnpde

@greenspindle nicht so direkt, aber es hat sich seit 2016 so ergeben.
Für #dnd hab ich leicht Leute gefunden und konnte leichter meine eigenen Welten integrieren. Dann haben sich 2 DSA Runden aufgelöst und plötzlich waren es nur mehr 2 #dnd5 und eine andere Kampagne, die ich leitete.
.
Ich leite auch #BOL #CallofCthulhu #dsa5 #DerSchattendes Dämonenfürsten #Agon und heuer kommen noch #WFRP #Theonering2e #brokencompass und #avatar dazu :)
spielen tu ich aktuell nur dsa und #SWADE :)

Spelljammer is already on printing two. That’s because they need to make some changes to the Hadozee for reasons of insensitivity. They’re good changes and Wizards of the Coast is changing the processes that allowed the culturally insensitive material to appear first too. This new printing has other errata too.

The one that sticks out is the addition of Feats to every Background.

“These backgrounds each give a feat. If a character takes a background from elsewhere and doesn’t get a feat from that background, the character gains one of the following feats of the player’s choice: Magic Initiate, Skilled, or Tough.”

Dragonlance will have something similar. For Dragonlance this was because these are characters in a war. They must be stronger, tougher, etc. In Spelljammer it kind of makes sense. Normal people aren’t space halflings and asteroid dwarves.

Similar to the Dragonlance decision my world has an additional feat at first level. In the case of the World of the Everflow these choices are;

• Kin get a Bonded Companion.
• Ken get a feat that grants a cantrip.
• Kon get Artificer Initiate and the Rock Gnome’s tinker ability.

Similar to the Dragonlance decision to add Feats this was done to add flavor, speaking to the types of powers that people from various continents have.

With One D&D’s playtest we know there’s a chance at adding Feats for everyone at 1st level.

What if the One D&D system of 1st Level Feats was added to 5e now?

You could add Feats to any character in the current game with a minor, but not overwhelming, increase in power with a few simple guidelines.

1. Only allow Feats that don’t have a +1 to an attribute.
2. Don’t allow the +5/-10 Feats.
3. Don’t allow Lucky.
4. Don’t allow Polearm Master

That’s it.

Now you can have flavorful feats in your 5e game at 1st level.

Instead, attach Feats to Backgrounds

Now, my current world attaches Feats to racial choices, but one could choose to go the path of Dragonlance, Spelljammer, and Strixhaven. Each of those books assigns their unique Backgrounds specific Feats for flavor.

A more flexible system would be to attach Feats on a small curve. Those Feats would be selected to emphasize specific stories typically told regarding that Background.

Using my most popular original Background, the Tinker, as an example. We’ll include the three default Feats from the errata — Magic Initiate, Skilled, Tough. Then only selecting Feats from the Player’s Handbook, Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, and Xanathar’s Guide to Everything since those are a core book and the two rules expansions.

Actor reminds me of Paden Fain. Artificer Initiate seems obvious. Linguist fits the wanderer mold. Ritual Caster makes sense to capture the one who picks up hedge magic.

Putting those on a chart with a curve using two dice can influence the commonality of the Feats.

Roll 2d4 or choose your favorite.

2. Magic Initiate
3. Tough
4. Linguist
5. Actor
6. Skilled
7. Ritual Caster
8. Artificer Initiate

Since it looks likely that Before We Were Heroes won’t be ready before the 2024 edition, I’m thinking of adding that Feat guidance to each listed Background.

Have another Background you’d like a Feat Chart for, ask in comments.

Opening up an NPC creation series with a character I should have made ages ago – one with glasses. If you don’t know me, I’m basically finger-blind. Without glasses or contacts I am unable to count how many fingers you would be holding up if you are more than a couple feet away from me. And yet, I never have played a character or NPC with glasses. I actively avoided it.

After reading Deven Rue’s recent post about embracing characters with vision impairment or blindness I decided that needed to change.

Heading over to DM Heroes, I hit the random button until it turned up a character with glasses. Then, it was about creating a character with an interesting background who was not a quest giver. Because as Rue says, “Make us non-quest related. Just people in your world. Living. Existing.”

Meet Orne Willowrush

First up is a Simple Index Card Version of an NPC. These are designed so with just a few words you can know who an NPC is from a basic description of appearance, to some basic motivations. In Willowrush’s case he’s a former soldier who once fought for the realm, but now works as a cooper. In my deep belief that everyone in your D&D world should have a hobby he is a fisher. He is not skilled in fishing though. He just enjoys doing the calmness of fishing with his friends. He can get dreamy about his past, but also doesn’t like to talk about it. Orne recently lost his beaver – Tryn. He’s just newly bonded with an otter – Orla.

Orne’s best friend is a librarian named Incirion Vadu, a goblin. You can often find them at the river together, ignoring work. Incirion knows Mending, and will often have an extra pair of glasses for Orne.

Orne Willowrush

If you want him built as a fully playable character I’ve added him to my DnDBeyond Community Characters campaign. Orne on Beyond is a Scout rather than a Conscript, so as to not introduce new rules.

Winestar, Lemplet Place

Winestar is a neighborhood built along the rolling ridge of the Lemplet River. It’s a mix of farmsteads with a few crafts to support their needs. Most of the good produced enter the walled part of the city via barge or float. The Spring, across the river, is up on a cliffside, and is generally more wealthy than Winestar, especially those parts that are next to the castle walls. Within Winestar you will, of course, find many small vintners, with most of the homes at least having a passing hobby of wine creation. In general, Winestar produces luxury goods whereas Northroad is sustenance farming.

Lemplet Place is a city of about 4,300 people.

1. Blackbridge – known for the eponymous bridge, the downtown of Lemplet Place
2. Tidewater Place – the slums, used to flood with high tide
3. Castle Lemplet – originally built as a exterior castle, the city has grown around it
4. Trollrock – the northern block surrounds a huge rock hill with a cave inside, no trolls though
5. Northroad – sustenance farming
6. Winestar – grapevines, orchards
7. The Spring – for the wealthy that moved out of the city

How will you use Orne Willowrush in your campaign?

I've had the starter set for third edition #DungeonAndDragons laying in a cupboard for years, but never actually played it.

Now I've bought the fifth edition starter set – guess I must be an optimist 😛
