I love rolling nat 1s...I always hyena laugh cause I know dumb stuff's about to happen

this is like the first thing that comes up when you search for the isle btw.
its not like at the bottom of google play
fresh canyon
google play games are like 90% bootlegs and scams so...

and also drawing the characters
I agree

So I asked my dm what deception it would take to convince people that Vähl was just a rock
He said about 25

Please tell me you succeeded

My Eldritch Knight fucks
fresh canyon
I agree drawing stuff post session is great.
vivid cloud
I haven't asked to do that yet
fresh canyon
our rogue keeps casting hideous laughter at my character to get me in trouble with the locals
vivid cloud
But, theoretically, if I rolled an 18 or higher, I can convince people that I was a rock XD

I just have this I am somewhat satisfied with

gonna take me a bit to figure out how to dial that on my phone which is good. I need to work up the courage
covert magnet
Maybe it is time to feed the cat, he is threatening to eat a cardboard box

maybe then I might get some drawing done today, just maybe. Been so bloody fatigued today

I really wish I could draw lol

all it takes is study and practice

Do it right now

It is the true way to go about it.

SaoulZod you are a moderator for the Isle, I doubt you can go around and calling stuff nerd shi... oh nvm

Hmmm, I see.

Kill them off, create a plague that wipes them out
lol I have had something like that planned in a way
void zinc
You’re more than welcome to blow up my DMs though with questions. I’ll help get you started and on the right track.
rough hollow
Better than playing the isle?😃
fresh canyon
uh. yeh
void zinc
This world needs more GMs. Regardless of the ruleset you choose, I can help you out.
Ye. Tutorials are pretty suck.
covert magnet
TBF player did discover ancient elven city filled with marble statues of elves and figured they were petrified and managed to start waking them up
fresh canyon
wait. NO. Saol is trying to trick you into becoming a forever DM
void zinc
Why play one character when you can play them all.
covert magnet
Why play one character when you can play them all.
This
rose crow
Well, I am horrible at being a character and I do love worldbuilding so a forever DM doesn't sound so bad
fresh canyon
true but...do you sleep
void zinc
Nah, I’ll happily impart my wisdom on how to not get burned out on being a Gamemaster and how to do world building super satisfying for you and players.
void zinc
true but...do you sleep
“Sleep”?
covert magnet
Sleep is illusion
void zinc
This world is an illusion, Exile.
covert magnet
I will make a DM confession. I have not prepped the game at all for past few sessions
void zinc
I prep 5% of the campaign for the session zero. The rest is improv I write down later. Lol
fresh canyon
DMs method act as elves 24/7.
rose crow
Hmmm
covert magnet
I prep 5% of the campaign for the session zero. The rest is improv I write down ...
I wish I wrote it down later
rose crow
The world is a social construct
void zinc
Whatever you plan out, I can promise that 100% of players will do something you didn’t plan for and go their own path. Your story be damned.
rose crow
Hence why I will always have a nuclear button of sorts
void zinc
Nah. Don’t do that.

covert magnet
I never planned the ancient city of petrified elves to happen
fresh canyon
that's called "rocks fall"

if they choose the wrong turn, if they pick the wrong option the world will go to shit and they can't stop me.
void zinc
It’s not you versus the players. It’s the players versus the world. You’re just the voice of the world.
covert magnet
it all begun from an innocent question player placed on a creature it just saved "where is your home? I'll take you back home I promise."

If they have pets or people they have sentimental attachment to? Goodbye to them.

Sadism achieved

Except the weird guy who breathes a little too hard when a girl is talking. He’ll love the game
rose crow
Anyways I am clearly joking, or well, hopefully clearly.
I kinda figured out you had to adapt due to one 40 second video
Although I still have no idea how one would do that
Like I guess I can't be subtle with what they should do when it has to progress the story onward
fresh canyon
...my friend asked if I'd ran up some stairs last time I was beating up a big monster. I get...a little excited.
void zinc
Read a lot of books, learn some creative writing. When i get off work I’ll send you some literature to check out, Dalt.
rose crow
Yeah that sounds great
I am already interested in writing although I am horrible at it
echo quail
yoo
soft lily
you get better by trying king
echo quail
writing is great
soft lily
and reading

also get good at looking stuff up in the players handbook cause your players will ask weird stuff

glad there is also 5etools for quick reference on stuff
echo quail
i dont have any experience writing campaign stuff but i love creative writing lol

I am already interested in writing although I am horrible at it
Sucking at something is the first step to being okay at it.
I can’t start or stop a story to save my life… but I can sure tell one.
void zinc

Ew 5e
fresh canyon
no...don't tell me...
covert magnet
lol
void zinc
5e smelly.
rose crow
what is 5e?
fresh canyon
oh god
soft lily
the current edition
rose crow
and... what... does that imply?
soft lily
depends on who you ask tbh
fresh canyon
updated rules races etc etc etc
rose crow
So there's different versions?
soft lily
I think all DnD has the core problem of needless number crunching
rose crow
That makes sense I guess....
void zinc
5e is “Fifth Edition”. The rules get changed every few years, some people are fans of different iterations.
covert magnet
This world needs more GMs. Regardless of the ruleset you choose, I can help you ...
cough
soft lily
and spells having exact uses so loads of them are useless
fresh canyon
4e didn't exist
void zinc
They go from very archaic to the current edition which is very beginner friendly, but lacks the in-depth customization of prior editions.
covert magnet
I like to look up lore from previous editions
void zinc
I’m a fan favorite of non-D&D rulesets and am more than happy to help expand horizons.
soft lily
I played 3.5 and that game is either you're either a broken power monster or crap, if you only care about numbers
rose crow
I like to look up lore from previous editions
So is there like a lore built arc for each edition...? Or is it lore for stuff like creatures, houses and races?
soft lily
the lore changes every edition, like it's a different world
covert magnet
So is there like a lore built arc for each edition...? Or is it lore for stuff l...
creature lore, there is different lore for different settings
void zinc
There are in house storylines, but you don’t have to adhere to them.
fresh canyon
there are prebuilt campaigns if you wanna use those
soft lily
and a different ruleset
rose crow
Huh, interesting.
void zinc
There are settings and rulesets. If you like a setting, you can play it in most rulesets.
soft lily
basically you're more than likely gonna get people for 5e, cause it's the current edition
covert magnet
what I run is my own homebrewed world and campaign so... I can add whatever I feel fits
void zinc
Think of it like picking your entree for a meal, then your sides.
fresh canyon
I enjoy 5e, with some homebrew slapped ontop
void zinc
The current lore and mythos play best in the current edition of D&D, but can be played in any priors.
covert magnet
I do also have a bit more homebrew rules involved, but I enjoy heavy roleplay in my games, and I don't want too many rules bogging that down
soft lily
I fuckin love RP
void zinc
I specialize in investigation/intrigue games. Combat is exceptionally rare. I had a year long campaign that only had 5 times we rolled initiative.
soft lily
I want to RP marrying the fucking paladin after all we've been through 
covert magnet
Like... my player used his precious luck point (which is a coinflip if he gets it at dawn or not) and he used his luck point so he could persuade someone to let him hold their baby XD

Just one capitalised E in here and I could ruin your reputation for 4 minutes before someone looks it up.

rose crow
I'm a big stronk lady I fear no house.
You clearly haven't seen the house
void zinc
You don’t know what crawls in the walls. It creeps on your pillow at night, skitters into your ear.
It is the source of your nightmare and the headache.
covert magnet
Our party fears bridges
void zinc
Fear the house.
fresh canyon
my dump stats are int and wis. I can't percieve that the house is scary

Horrible for you. It’s a Charisma save.
fresh canyon
that's my third dump stat
void zinc
Stop reading my diary
rose crow
What if the house has like... a scary... uhm... piece of carpet on the ground?
fresh canyon
Rugs? Rugs are terrifying.
covert magnet
my major failure as a dm is that I never manage to posses the -1 wisdom save fighter
void zinc
Textiles?! 2spooky
fresh canyon
I once stepped on a rug and it got a chokehold on me
void zinc
Animated rugs are a common adversary in my games.
My players respect the furniture of the house.
rose crow
What if you just had an entirely carpented floor in some abandoned castle or something? You know that stupidly fancy red carpet everyone seems to imagine royalty had? An animated version of that would be terrifying, it'd be like fighting against a flood.
fresh canyon
hey my fighter has -1 wis. twinsiiiieees
void zinc
Mhm. It is.
covert magnet
-1 wisdom is fun
fresh canyon
I make sure to roleplay it. I make a lot of questionable choices
covert magnet
I make sure to roleplay it. I make a lot of questionable choices
his girlfriend is a succubus and it is not gonna end well
very murderously jealous succubus
void zinc
So like... -1 wisdom is just being stupid?
Wisdom is a measure of worldly experience to interpret your surroundings.
rose crow
Hmm
fresh canyon
I tried to do an animal handling to calm down a horse once and proceeded to spook the entire stable and attract trolls
rose crow
So being socially unaware?
covert magnet
He was held captive in a basement by his father until he escaped so there is that
void zinc
Sort of. Low Wisdom is not knowing how to sort out your situation.
fresh canyon
all the horses got eaten
void zinc
Or not having the awareness to realize it.
fresh canyon
I yelled at the horse to calm it down
rose crow
Hmm.
void zinc
So being socially unaware?
This is a bad Charisma score example. Charisma is a measurement of how the world perceives you and interprets your actions.
High Charisma is like a public speaker. Low Charisma is the creepy dude grunting and breathing hard on the bus as he stares at people.
fresh canyon
My character's first intution when she's trying to make friends is to make them smell her backpack that smells like a rotten head.
soft lily
I cant play characters by their statblock unless they're really strong
rose crow
This is a bad Charisma score example. Charisma is a measurement of how the world...
So like, if you want to be a leader type figure you would need high charismatic properties.
covert magnet
My insane cleric had -1 charisma mod. So I roleplayed him being very blunt and straightforward and not that great at lying. At all. Brutally honest xD
void zinc
So like, if you want to be a leader type figure you would need high charismatic ...
You want high Charisma and good Int/Wis.
covert magnet
But still he somehow ended up as the leader of the party because of his strong will and high wisdom ><
rose crow
Actually... a question, theoretically, could a character who cannot speak have high charisma?
void zinc
Yes
covert magnet
captivating smile
rose crow
Hmm, and I assume creatures can have charisma too.
soft lily
Yes
rose crow
Such as like an old dragon having high charisma
soft lily
Intellegence too

dragons are scary smart

Magical Creatures and normal Creatures aren’t measured the same.

Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit.

That’s my regular character. I play “Masterminds”. Great mental stats, bad physical. It’s good for roleplay
soft lily
I like playing dickheads
fresh canyon
maybe. I'm too...me...to roleplay a mastermind.
rose crow
So would a character with full intelligence but with extremely low wisdom be similar to... idk how I should put it but moustache twirling mad scientists?
covert magnet
so far my most succesfull mastermind character has been working behind the scenes, puppeteering the show to a direction she wishes. A wicked green dragon planning downfalls of nations over the centuries

if you were on 5e You'd play an articifer for that as a class

All what is needed for the character I would want to create with that
So an Articifer sounds good

good way to split the battlefield and obscure vision from enemy archers and casters

had like 30 uthgard guys come for us and I had to sit it out
covert magnet
awh
fresh canyon
sure I'd killed some bulettes and was a bit messed up but I wanted more blood man
rose crow
What is an Uthgard?
fresh canyon
northern tribesmen
rose crow
Ahh
I thought they'd be giants for some reason
Since Uthgard and Utgård sound kinda similar
covert magnet
I know the feeling. At some point with my high lvl cleric/fighter, his ac was with defender, shield spell, shield and armor, up to 29. Nothing wanted to engage and I had no way to keep them there
rose crow
Utgård being the realm of giants in northern mythology
or well, kinda
it is more confusing than that but yeah.
fresh canyon
plenty of hints and nods to norse mythology in dnd. including yanno. straight up importing deities
soft lily
DnD takes stuff from everything
covert magnet
yeah, there is a lot from different mythologies
rose crow
I think I actually have the creature handbook or whatever it is called
From when I was trying to get into it but just couldn't
fresh canyon
I could of course be wrong here but I think the best way to get into dnd is to just bullrush in and learn as you go. if you're trying to learn from reading and stuff...well there's kinda no limit to how much you can learn.
rose crow
I see
covert magnet
yeah you can just keep procrastinating with the studying for ever, making it feel like too much..
fresh canyon
I've had to STOP myself from learning too much cause I'd end up spoiling things for myself.
covert magnet
all you need to is preferably to learn your class XD
soft lily
Dalt you could even spitball characters by just doodling if you want
Making characters my favourite part
fresh canyon
Snacks I love your style.
soft lily
tyty
covert magnet
my sketching process is so messy oof
rose crow
Dalt you could even spitball characters by just doodling if you want
This I kinda do constantly but with no knowledge of what is in the game makes it a bit hard, I like to go into the true specifics when making a character and then figuring out that I can't come up with bullshit weapons that makes no sense
soft lily
Mine gets better when I use the right side of my brain
fresh canyon
you seem to have a good grasp on form
soft lily
This I kinda do constantly but with no knowledge of what is in the game makes it...
it's cool man, just think of something and ask the DM or other players if anything kinda matches what you want
then mold it to that
rose crow
I see.
soft lily
you seem to have a good grasp on form
I did loads of lifedrawing years ago so it lingers in my head
fresh canyon
when you make a character you're gonna roll a 1 or like a lvl3 and you'll have garbage weapons to start with if you're playing 5e so no worry there. your DM's discression on what they end up giving you
fresh canyon
perhaps with some homebrew and nat1s
rose crow
is that all just up to the DM or is there a certain dice roll?
soft lily
It depends
fresh canyon
our rogue's bow string likes to snap when he rolls 1s
soft lily
you can play with strict rulesets for certain things, or just by DM descresion/if it's dramatic
Like you critfail at a critical moment, some DM's would just say the sword breaks, or you miss dramatically
fresh canyon
my glaive likes to try to slip out of my hands but I usually am able to catch it with dex rolls
soft lily
or they could run off a roll table
covert magnet
yeah it depends on a dm. I've had a rapier break once but I could mend it back later. But soon we had magic weapons and they don't break
fresh canyon
had some horrible slime monster corrode my armor once. cost me a fortune to have it fixed up
soft lily
One of my characters has an Oblex as a pet
Just Absorbs people for info
and the DM set it up so it's just a part of my character now, so my character's just a slime monster that can eat people
covert magnet
this is one of my characters, and I keep reworking this piece oof
rose crow
So... oblex are just big slimes?
soft lily
So... oblex are just big slimes?
Big horrible slimes that eat, and create duplicates of people, and are intellegent

Big horrible slimes that eat, and create duplicates of people, and are intellege...
Huh... interesting
soft lily
rose crow
Ah yes, the big slime with many faces.
fresh canyon
ew
rose crow
Are oblexes just intelligent or are they fully sentient like a human?
soft lily
Just intellegent I think
soft lily
They just crave intellect and memories
fresh canyon
our party only has two pets. a fungus furred flounder ferret named Fergus and kitten Tressym named socks
soft lily
Socks is a good name
covert magnet
We have 8 sheep, goats and chicken and 4 horses
rose crow
Imagine the horrors of something with human levels of smarts which can disintigrate people leaving little to no evidence that they were ever there and then create a duplicate of said person...
Just saying, this could be a fun villain.
fresh canyon
we had horses but...terrible things keep happening to them
covert magnet
oh yeah and two hellhounds
soft lily
we have a horse that's... not quite right

Holy shit what is this

Alright hypothetically speaking, if I made a naturalist type character with no moral compass, could I make a sort of trip wire using these?
soft lily
Yes
rose crow
Hmm, another potential character that sounds fun
fresh canyon
our circle of spores druid has one.
rose crow
I guess it would be easy to make a sub plot where you'd just try to document a lot of the creatures and even learn about their anatomy and biology and stuff
A really easy character to do.
You can kinda forge them from medieval -> 1800's type of naturalist guys, those had very little to no moral compass
fresh canyon
I think you'd have fun with D&D. you have some fun character ideas.
rose crow
I think so too.
covert magnet
I realized I probably need to do a pre Strahd and after Strahd picture of my character. He has gone through a lot...
fresh canyon
please tell me he was legolas before strahd
covert magnet
Well he was never "good" but he is delightfully pretty blonde in a shining armor. Though black, because adamantine
he is a smith, great craftsman who made his own armor. Also jeweller so he made pretty jewelry for the sorceress..
Keeps insisting he is just a smith but he is a forge cleric
Though, he is willing to do some sacrifices now. Last fight "Fuck Esmerelda" when she was in trouble in a fight. In a tone to imply to just abandon her
fresh canyon
elves man.
covert magnet
He also scared two berserkers away by flying to them in the rain, thaumaturgy to the wings so they look like they are on green flames, another thaumaturgy to make eyes go black and weep blood and claim "I've come to collect your souls". Successful intimidation roll later the berserkers ran away screaming like girls

Shit...

I once yelled at a group of kobolds and they got so scared they blew themselves up...

everyone else escaped unharmed through the teleport but my character with 20 arrows in his ass

I once used Catapult to lob a vase at our new recruited rogue who went on a robbery spree to knock him out
catapult is the best spell
you can throw grenades with it
covert magnet
omg catapult. Imagine capturing something in a Bead of Force and catapulting it at something
soft lily
oh god hahaha
that same rogue also had a session to return to us after being away for ages, DM rolled for where they ended up before hand and it was in hell
covert magnet
cuz no matter how big or heavy the creature inside, bead of force bubble weighs 1 pound
soft lily
so we had to do an escape from hell onceshot for the rogue
with everyone else playing other escapees just for that session
fresh canyon
our rogue hasn't stolen a single thing in 7 months and I'm honestly dissapointed
soft lily
and the rogue drank a potion of random effects and ||got a boner from it||, then used it to Intimidate the boss
that session was balls to the wall the dumbest shit
covert magnet
anyone have good splint armor reference in mind?
soft lily
I do not am afraid
covert magnet
armor is so difficult one to draw and design oof
rose crow
Unless you simplify it down to just a big log strapped onto your arm.
covert magnet
yeah unfortunately this guy goes fancy
covert magnet
some day I will make this character
fresh canyon
real life splint armor is generally very different from fantasy so...be creative
covert magnet
rabbitfolk barbarian mwahahah
fresh canyon
I had to draw splint once and I cried. too many straight lines
rose crow
A character which would also be nice would be a barbarian style half giant... or maybe full giant depending on what a giant is in DnD
fresh canyon
uuuh playing a giant uh...
covert magnet
there is goliath that is the closest for a giant..
But yeah there are no large player races :/ unless you find a dm that allows a giant or ogre or something
fresh canyon
too hard to make the environments work for large pcs...not to mention the range
also weapon dice scale with size
covert magnet
not really in 5e, I have to deal with a large fighter on regular basis... runeknight fighter can grow to large .__.
fresh canyon
and that range's gotta hurt
covert magnet
size doesn't necessarily give reach
rose crow
It kinda really does
If I have 98 centimeter arms I will have longer reach than someone with 70 centimeter arms
fresh canyon
how do you go about a character taking up a ten meter radius without them reaching further than a 5?
covert magnet
yeah but game mechanic wise it doesn't
fresh canyon
diameter too sorry brain fart
rose crow
I never meant a 10 meter tall giant
covert magnet
uh the scale is feets
rose crow
I just meant a rather large humanoid
covert magnet
lets take a monster statblock from 5e, ogre. Large Giant. Attack reach is 5 ft
it just occupies and threatens a larger area on the board
Which means, more creatures can surround it and beat it
fresh canyon
yeah it can reach a lot more stuff around it than something smaller
covert magnet
yeah
and this applies to the player aswell cuz he really grows large and in later levels.. huge
at some point he can grapple a dragon damnit
and give it a wedgie
rose crow
Not like building size, here is a chart of the size I kinda meant
fresh canyon
hm. our druid just picked up that enlage stuff. imma...have to persuade him...
covert magnet
hm. our druid just picked up that enlage stuff. imma...have to persuade him...
that can be fun
rose crow
Large enough to have a really big strength and range advantage but... not the size of an elephant
covert magnet
Not like building size, here is a chart of the size I kinda meant
yeah there is a medium guy and a large guy 😄 game mechanics wise
fresh canyon
I'd prefer haste. God hecking damn do I love being hasted. A bajillion attacks per round and all the movement to abuse
covert magnet
Large enough to have a really big strength and range advantage but... not the si...
goliath is kinda big guy, considered to go to the medium bracket though. But has the carry capacity of a large creature
But, there is always DM discression. Some dm might be willing to let someone play a giant
rose crow
Hmm, I see.
fresh canyon
I met a goliath once. Only time I wanted my horc to seduce someone. Instead I keep getting hit on by halflings.
covert magnet

I had a dm that let me play undead elf
Shame tho that it kinda went to shit because he didn't communicate with me at all and refused to talk about anything related to that and eventually changed his mind and turned around that "he was never undead to begin with" so there was that. But for the moment it was nice and cool to be undead afraid of being revealed
But oh well, now I'm a DM and I can play all the undead I want XD

maybe it changed after all the dlc came out but the monster diversity was just so lack luster

Do you mean base world?

all the monsters were basically copy and pastes of each other
i never played the dlcs because it was so boring

Outside of the subspecies what were the copy pastes
And it's not like prior mh games had a perfect track record of that either

kinda, kulu utilizes rocks and tzi tzi flashing
Their basic attacks are fairly similar tho

rise rathalos is actually pretty good imo, it actually expanded on its kit with flamethrowers and thanks to how monsters target and aim attacks in Rise I think its a lot more engaging, just took a while sadly
Hopefully the same happens to rathian at some point, Jesus rathian needs some new shit to do
Doesn't have a single new move in Rise from what I can remember

ig? idk i feel there could've been something done about world. in terms of like since it was the first in a long time of hard ground mechanics and detailing

So I don't know if you can see it here, but if you want to do shading I suggest trying putting a bright, on color, linework to the top of your scales, or where you think the light would collect the most. In increases the 3d-ness of your painting.
and even a very dark, low opacity brush behind the scales
I'm no expert but even as a beginner myself I've found doing even these small things creates so much more depth in the paintings you do
