#YO ANYONE DOWN FOR DND ON NON-STREAM NIGHTS?

oh yeah throwables could be fun
like a stink bomb could either work as a beast repellant or just mess with an enemy
understandable
saboteur is a good name- the abilities remind me a lot of shaco
rogue that springs traps on people and does "jumpscares"
hence the psychic damage
yeah, that was kind of the intention

although I hadn't thought of Shaco XD
oh i think this is the guy i was thinking about earlier
timo?
i'v only played lol once in my life and it was when i was 11 i think and i played a little as a girl in a white nurse outfit and rest with him
teemo
could give them some sort of ability to deploy traps in combat
or, the ability to immediately after an enemy triggers a trap, be able
to do a free misty step that can solely teleport them directly behind the enemy
who triggered the trap, perhaps with enhanced sneak damage- or, a thrown action
that allows the same thing
totally not shaco

just takes an action to set them, can be done in or out of combat
just needs to make the traps before hand
yup
then perhaps instead some subclass feature making it able
to deploy them from a distance, though not too far
but I don't know what is balanced or not 
might have to give my eldritch cleric a staff(though she'll pretty much just be using it as a walking stick)
so I can pair warcaster with polearm master at later levels- since it'd let her cast spells at encroaching enemies

Aizo you can just buy a ruby of the war mage
"Wondrous item, common (requires attunement by a spellcaster)
Etched with eldritch runes, this 1-inch-diameter ruby allows you to use a simple or martial weapon as a spellcasting focus for your spells. For this property to work, you must attach the ruby to the weapon by pressing the ruby against it for at least 10 minutes. Thereafter, the ruby can't be removed unless you detach it as an action or the weapon is destroyed. Not even an Antimagic Field causes it to fall off. The ruby does fall off the weapon if your attunement to the ruby ends"
Just grab a halberd and stick it on
It also is a common item so between 50 to 100 gold
how would that replace either warcaster or polearm master

I already have a holy symbol that serves as a spell focus
I just need a staff for polearm master to work

Why not a spear?
staff is more lore fitting for my eldritch cleric
she doesn't really use weapons at all

pairing of warcaster and polearm master is great, since warcaster let's you make opportunity attacks into spells
and let's you cast with only one hand free which in turn allows polearm master with the staff, letting me cast
spells like command or other such things, defensively if melees approach her

Warcaster means if someone tries to run, you can "help them" by smacking them with booming blade

that's M31's plan for level 12, if we ever reach that level
warcaster booming blade is also quite.. unfair, for the opponent
since they already chose to move, so they will automatically trigger the movement part of booming blade

at level 12, M31's opporunity attacks effectively becomes 6d8+mod (3d8+mod from the hit, and then 3d8 from the movement)
though using booming blade in place of the regular opportunity attack won't trigger sentinel's 0 movement thing
tradeoff

how does oaths work btw?
like with my oath of devotion do i have to be devoted to something or someone specific?
or is it like i belive in like these certain rules or something and i'm devoted to that?
you are devoted to "something" basically- all the paladin oaths have tenets that they must adhere to
right this was why i liked oath of devotion

Depends on how much you murder hobo
so if u do move 20 feet and atk u can still use the 10 feet before ur turn is over?
you can use everything available to you, regardless of order

2024 dnd stuff is.. interesting
heavy armour master isn't just 3 reduced, but instead based on prof
so it will actually be better late- and sentinel now uses an opportunity attack
to strike back when friends are hit, instead of just a reaction to attack(even stronger with the tunnel fighter feat)
shield master however, no longer adds shield bonus to dex saves

NOOOOO
the durable feat is far better however than in 5e, used to just make twice your con mod the mininum hit dice could heal during short rests
but in 2024, it let's you use a bonus action at any point, to spend a hit dice to heal
the alert feat is also quite fun in 2024- used to prevent surprised combat, and add +5 to your initiative
now instead just adds your proficiency to initiative(so weaker early, strong later) and you can swap your initiative with a willing ally on combat start
so @proud pebble are we using 5e or 2024 rules for the new campaigns?

5e
end of the day 5e is what I'm familiar with and what I have the materials for
fuck no
yee also me, completely used to 5e

Come here pretty boy

Alright
i've heard about this yeah. It pairs really well with a reverberation build centered around a weapon that deals thunder damage every time you jump
Walking is overpowered, honour mode didn't stand a chance

Ooh yes I know about the Phalar Aluve cheese. I would actually argue that the reverb build works even better with Hammerhaft
you tried fighting Tric yet?
she's really hard actually
does a ton of dmg
Tric? No I haven't
aside from literally our first attempt, we've had terrible rng for our runs
I'm about to go into shadowlands round 2
But I need to get used to the mindset of "DON'T FIGHT UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO"
The fun thing about an all Paladin run is how many times you can spam Command: Approach to trigger opportunity attacks
<@&1284336728831950879> RMB WE HAVE DND TOMORROW
right mouse button?
i cant make it tmr cuz i have a engagement party to go to
Reschedule to early sunday evening? Playing in a hotel might be scuff af for me
spark is pretty easy to play just stab whoever is closest then stab them again
so i am sure justin can handle it 
early sunday evening is possible
<@&1284336728831950879> react with here if you would prefer we reschedule to Sunday night 
I'm good with anything, so I'll just add to the emotes
i'm fine with it 
it's not the same without everyone there 
well sounds like yall gotta pick who's more important me or drake 
Next week it is then
zowo also can't do saturday
Justin said that he wants everyone there for the session because it's home defence
also it's just more fun with everyone there 
what if grandpa joins 
next saturday i got a later shift so i will be 30min late 
next week it is then
also Cannon is right, this is a home defence, however i also treat it as a milestone in the campaign much like when you guys attacked the League Camp, this is being treated as a closing chapter
............alsoyouguyswilllevelupafterthis-
I wonder what magical item would be best for the group at level 6
since I get access to the 6th level tier

do our rogues need to be more stealthy?

@scarlet crescent the "living crucible" fighter, by the way: https://grimhollow.fandom.com/wiki/Fighter:_Living_Crucible

is basically a drug addict, who can then use said drugs to empower themselves for combat
some of the more powerful drugs they can do(in my opinion) are:
- Adrenal Injection. For the next minute, your movement speed is increased by 10 feet and your jumping distances are tripled.
- Allsense Injection. For the next minute, you have blindsight out to a distance of 30 feet.
- Elfsight Oil. For the next 8 hours, you have darkvision out to a range of 120 feet.
- Fleshknit Phosphate. For the next minute, if you have at least 1 hit point, you heal a number of hit points equal to your proficiency bonus at the start of each of your turns.
- Liquid Courage. You gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution ability score plus twice your level in this class. You lose any remaining temporary hit points from this compound after 1 minute.
- Liquid Rage. For the next minute, your weapon attacks deal an extra 1d4 damage.
- Spellshine Ointment. For the next minute, you have resistance to damage from spells.
- Steelskin Ointment. For the next minute, you have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
and among those, specifically the "adrenal injection", "fleshknit phosphate", "spellshine ointment", and "steelskin ointment"
those makes the crucible fighter very difficult to deal with- naturally you cannot just consume everything at the same time
and there are also more concoctions than what I mentioned here
of course, all this is on top of what any regular fighter could do
has +10 on stealth rolls more stealth 
Wait so no dnd this weel either? Oh man. I feel a little resposible for this but im looking forward to the combat more than ever
I think uni is helping me alot


This sounds so fun to play
well you could play it Beans
Then I would like to play the druggie please
I get access to two certain items I can magically replicate/infuse at level 6
- boots of elvenkind
- cloak of elvenkind
the boots makes your steps make zero sound, ever- and you get permanent advantage on stealth
the cloak gives disavantage to anyone trying to spot you, and advantage to your stealth checks

it's one of the classes I thought would be cool as well

tbf I could use either of those
just so I don't suck complete ass at stealth
Thank you for showing me Aizo 

and we're only a week and a day away from session 0

You can play it irl too
@proud pebble those are the replicas
then there is
- boots of the winding path
- radiant weapon
- repulsion shield
- resistant armour
- spell-fuelling ring
Happy to hear it also no one is responsible life happens and we just wanna make sure everyone gets to be part of the fun 
I can also keep a total of 3 infusions going rather than the current 2
there's a lot that would be dope for Yaromir ngl
I would like to do the repulsion shield for M31, but I really like spreading the power around
how many can you do at once?
right now, 2- enhanced defense for M31, and enhanced weapons on yaromir
at level 6 I can do 3 at once
I will be late for next week btw but hopefully no more then 30min
I'll try to run home

Soon my Blood Magic Lizard will be alive
It's unlikely i will be 30min late likely less
have you looked into the stuff yet?

Depends what you mean?
like what you want your character to be and do
beyond simply being a blood casting lizard
Since no dnd today i wanna make another char Just need a burst of inspiration for one
what classes do you have so far?
Oh you mean like character story wise?
Oh yea that's not a big problem
personality and such
You're talking to a yearlong master Skyrim Builder

Rouge,first vampire was cleric? And a circle of moon druid
vampire was warlock
Warlock 
So yea I got ideas and an plan though I need a bit more lore on the world to get more details in
and then you had a paladin, a monk and a barbarian
and currently playing a rogue, yes?

What I got already goes without needing much knowledge except for Lizardfolk home and basic knowledge of DnD world
How did I forget my monk
also not made paladin or barbarian yet
Also a few things will depends on Cannon and what the setting and story for our campaign will be
then you could make your primal spirit barbarian

Yes i think I will
Just had an idea i'm not gonna do with it
Idea was i could have a char with my doggo but that would make me to sad so instead it gonna be fenris
basically fight alongside a big puppy that can always be resummoned
and is resistant to physical damage while you're raging

sessions 0 will be fun

I might listen in 
if I made a primal spirit barbarian, I'd obviously make it a giant owl

I'll make one later today currently i haven't even left my bed so gonna go make some food

I also can't make it this Sunday. The more often the breaks happen, and the more often the days change, the harder it gets for me to make sure the time stays free.
Think next saturday works?
think the idea was just doing next week regular time, justin said
so don't make plans for next saturday

Bummer. I'll have to rob that bank some other time
Yeah next week it is then
some NR tonight if ur free?
Can do
@pastel idol you play Skyrim or are into Elder Scrolls?
not really into either- I enjoyed the premise of skyrim, but never truely got into it
just gonna point out that D&D and Skyrim aren't that similar gameplay wise
got some similar themes but that's just because fantasy
Nah I know
I asked because I wanted to show her a build video from which my character is loosely inspired
I'm considering splitting the recaps into their respective chapters for <@&1284336728831950879>. We've done three so far
Ch 1. The Chasm
Ch 2. The League debrief
Ch 3. Maltor's Harbor
And the videos themselves will also borrow from how Ethanoneverything did his Elden Ring lore where I put up a giant board with details of the story
a different style to mine would definitly be a good idea
yee the chapters idea is good
Im watching fireworks
that way it can stagger it out given how sparse the reddit recaps are and I can focus more on visual references
also Cannon, you're doing 2 campaigns next, so maybe if yo'd like i can focus on making some recaps for the session im in and you can the other session? so you dont have to juggle both
Such as pulling clips from movies and videos to get the point across eg. A mission briefing from Mission Impossible when talking about session 1
I wasn't actually planning on doing recaps for the new games
don't want to over saturate reddit with 3 recaps per thing
i have a question, are the campaigns being recorded and put on yt?
I've been putting the recaps that I've made on yt
but live recorded, no
cursed items best items. they're so much more interesting. -@mc_cheshire the Editor
animation by Mirabeau Studios.
Do full animations in 4k 
Wait a moment
We got the real kappa here too?
Bruh I never noticed till now
You have a very skewed understanding of how much effort is needed to animate something like that
Nah you just underestimate yourself
I was thinking about ESO trailer level of animations
Fun fact the elderscrolls universe started as a D&D campaign
the points still stands that is not something easily done alone
What do you mean you can't make this kind of animation a whole studio did all on your own?

Alas I am no Syana Pederson
I can do NR at 10:30
Some day we will just "AI it" to make it animated.
already can
AI isn't good enough about understanding the object permanence of reality. Yet.
^someone hasnt seen the geini 3 demo
If it's he one I'm thinking of, it costs what a studio would pay. For now
no thanks, I'm good
I prefer putting time and effort into my creations
currently not released to the public but actually insane
$20 a month for a thousand credits... Hm.
Nope, you're right. I'd guess I'd need $200 or so given the dollar to credit ratio to edit things to make the prompts work, but it is significantly less than a studio.
My math is a 5 minute recap would be 40 shots or so. I'm assuming I would need to run shots though about 5 to 10 iterations to get right.
I've seen text prompts eat 10 credits a piece, so the costs would wildly depend on how credits are calculated by the model...

atm whats stopping me from starting on my primal spirit barbarian is i can't decide on a name
i decided i want a big wolf and call it fenris so i was thinking i could take a norse myth name as well but preferably no odin, thor or the most common ones
i thought about nidhog 
jorm from jormugander could be a nice name actualy 
No damn clankers in this house
What about Fenrir
fenris is the norwegian name for fenrir
Sköll and Hati are the twin wolves that devour the sun and moon
i can't have more then one summon with primal spirit can i? 
if i can then maybe i'll be fenris and have skoll and hati as my summons
btw Dendar, the entity that canonically ends the world of D&D
She is performs the role of Nidhogg, Skoll and Jormugander
she eats away at the tree of life which she is imprisoned by
eventually she frees herself
eats the sun
crushes the world

oh other cool lore thing
Ubato, the god of Chult
not actually a god, he's a primordial
he betrayed Dendar and helped the gods trap her in Hades
because otherwise the gods couldn't stop her from destorying the world
I looked up who'd win between acererak and elminster
but..
apparantly elminster is CR39

he has 5 levels in whatever "archmage" is
basically a prestige class to wizard
Fighter 1/Rogue 2/Cleric 3/Wizard 24/Archmage 5
and also "chosen of mystra" which is typically a cleric thing
to be a "gods chosen"
is what xopah was in trial towards, for ilmater
and the tomb was her final trial


Hes not just a chosen of mystra he's something called a "weave anchor" basically he is one of the pillars the magic of the world is built apon
funnily enough Volo is another one
Where my nine divines and Daedric Princess?
not in D&D
What you mean Elder Scrolls lore can't be copied to be DnD lore too?
But nah actually wanna hear the story and setting next week for our Campaign
cannon did, it's in pins
and this i think
ah i see
those are just snippets of story excerpts
#1242281898844360744 message
is from this thing cannon sent

i still need to find the time to read about the raven queen
findout how i wanna incorporate her into my story
One of the games might not be set in GH
Part of what will be discussed next week

Just the material for GH is available regardless
one campaign is in grim hollow while the other is in hollow grim 
what chance of hollow hollow and grim grim campaign?
i think it depends if hotdogs fly on tuesday
if you're a parasite warlock, who's a hill dwarf, using the tough feat
you'll get an extra +4 hit points for each level you get

Fun-Fact: To my knowledge mimics can literally mimic EVERYTHING so a potion might be a Mimic, a sword, a shoe, hell you could have an whole Mimic knight as your character who is multiple Mimic objects

I want my next Sorcerer to have magical glue powers because he's a mimic, but has mimiced being a human so perfectly he doesn't realize it.
He thinks he has created magical glues and stuff like that, but he's really just dripping a little into the concoctions he's testing.
On the bright side, once he realizes and accepts his reality, he can consume and permanently destroy dangerous magical artifacts.
Might I suggest grease spell + chromatic orb for flavor
This is when you start drafting escape plans 
the door is locked
Warhammer
the door is made of adamantine
The wall probably isn't then
the wall is 10ft thick stone
At that point you just die
dimension door
counterspell
counterspell
Misty step?
you're a disembodied from grim hollow
and use an action to become ethereal
simply move through the wall

I forgot ABOUT ETHERALNESS
CU113N COULD HAVE USED IT TO PEAK INTO THE ROOM WITH THE ATROPAL


hey, we won both times- and even got to see both endings
both times was super fun fight

<@&1284336728831950879> the intro is done :3c
if one of u had been taking audio recordings of the sessions u could one time just make a kinda bloopers vid of just random weird or funny shit thats gets said durring the sessions 
Wait, we're on a giant island? 
when you really think about it-
I like that final quote especially

It's the quote from the module document itself 
I will be putting this up for the next reddit AFTER the 29th. I'm going to start work on Chapter 1 for now
Only 3 days left
Be prepared for bad mic quality and constant background noises and muting myself cause someone doesn't know to knock a door before bashing into my room
<@&1248006648744902809> this is your one and only reminder that our campaigns are starting this week
You do NOT have to have your character made in time for the session 0
I will help you with creation on the day if you need it
I will see Beans, Dtravesty, Majora, Aizo and TuanTuan on <t:1756666800:f>
I will see Necro, Drake, Bomparm, Sneke, Val and Samzukwu on <t:1756839600:f>
since i'm no longer in those campaigns, I'll need Aizo's help to remove my role for that lol
nOOOOOOO
ur desire to leave as been noted and we have decided to add another lock to ur chains we hope u have a nice day

3 hours before stream to confirm?
yes
if i wanna learn about raven queen do i use the forgotten realms wiki or the critical role one?
oh or dndwikidot
no thats a subclass i think
hmm and not listen among the typic ones
and not on homebrew either
ah unearthed arcana
it has an ability called finger of death
7d8+30 necrotic dmg and any humanoid killed by it raises on the next turn and is permanently under ur command following verbal orders to the best of it's abilities
max roll for the dmg would be 86
oh thats not as impressive when i see that if my monk gets to level 20 i can do a max roll dmg for 200
oh wait lv.17 not 20
Your patron is the Raven Queen, a mysterious being who rules the Shadowfell from a palace of ice deep within that dread realm. The Raven Queen watches over the world, anticipating each creature’s death and ensuring that it meets its end at the proscribed time and place. As the ruler of the Shadowfell, she dwells in a decayed, dark reflection of the world. Her ability to reach into the world is limited. Thus, she turns to mortal warlocks to serve her will. Warlocks sworn to the Raven Queen receive visions and whispers from her in their dreams, sending them on quests and warning them of impending dangers.
The Raven Queen’s followers are expected to serve her will in the world. She concerns herself with ensuring that those fated to die pass from the world as expected, and bids her agents to defeat those who seek to cheat death through undeath or other imitations of immortality. She hates intelligent undead and expects her followers to strike them down, whereas mindless undead such as skeletons and zombies are little more than stumbling automatons in her eyes.
this might actualy have been all i needed 
this is exactly what i want my char to be
so i will be a long death monk but story wise i will be a raven queen warlock 
i like this alot now i just need to find the time to bother writing something and hope i can make it decent
anyway with this i feel satisfied and can finaly go sleep 
@pastel idol if you dont mind doing it for me too
Uni life busy as heck

U can play tomorrow? 
Most likely
Ill try to be as little late as possible but tram traffic has been crazy for the past two days
So its a plausible thing to be 10 minutes late
Oh don't worry i'll be like 30min late myself cuz work ends when we star
Okay so i may match you then
oh i was wondering does monks have spells?
one of the subclasses does
hmm i'm going long death so guess thats a no for me
is there anyway i can have a raven 
maybe
i might not need it but if i wanna try and be a servant of the raven queen then it seemed fitting to have a raven which conveys her will to me
i was just thinking i could had used find familiar for the raven but i'm doing long death
you could technically get magic initiate: wizard, and pick "find familiar" as the spell
that'd take an entire feat however

i could just not have the raven add it to my back story
queen probably displeased with the inquisition sending people to their deaths before their time
so i'm tasked with dealing with them
btw we don't allow unearthed arcana right?
nope

if or when that becomes an option i might want raven queen warlock
i'v grown fond of her
i see 
oh actualy

this is from the UA raven queen warlock could i still use this as reference for the raven queen or is this wrong?
<@&1284336728831950879> KAVINOR <t:1756580459:t> TMRW, LOCK TF IN
time to stab alot of things
i will be late 
hopefully no more then 30min
tried to make sure i had bought everything i needed of food and such so i should be able to just run home and joine
Zane the goat
Same
I have a football tourney which ends at start time xD
so football is more important to you then D&D 
have you peepos thought of like, intro sequences for your characters?
if any of you are familiar with critical role's opening animations for their campaigns
that's kind of how I mean it
for M31, I thought like, first scene is a brief clip of her in her tinkering shop, happily working on her gatchets
flash to her work being taken from her in her confusion, then flash again she's in her guardian form, angry red visor, in the middle of a fight
before it flashes on to the next person's sequence
or something

I had not but i have now
Can easily
But
It depends what the setting is
I wouldn't want to do it yet if I don't know the setting
I don't have much knowledge about the world so that's why I haven't done much yet
I've done something for my character
A voice recording of him
If someone wants to hear it the say
A young liger at a market sneaking up towards a food stall then grabs some food and runs away, flash to a slightly older liger who is with some hooded bandits that gesters for him to head inside a building, flah to liger picking the lock of a chest only to be discoverd by guards who start to chase and liger runs, flash to liger looking dejected in a cell, flash to liger now with the party doing stuff
Easier to do with my monk

@neat dust https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-f0riid9bYc
kind of how their opening shows brief clips or flashes of each character's story
actually, I should probably start M31's with a black screen and a muffled voice saying her name "M31" and as they do her eyes shine in the darkness, before the other things I said
you don't have to make anything if it's trouble, I just like doing these things

Kinda like a silent short film of shin (my monk) walking in the middle of nowhere hood up useing hes scythe as a walking stick and a raven comes flying in landing near him, he then looks up and it flashes to him being in a city or town murdering inquisition members, flash to the inquisition going around asking question clearly looking for something in a hurry and seeing a hooded shin walking away in a back alley then flash to encountering the party
Pah it's an very easy thing to do for me
There is a reason I have done years of Skyrim builds and it wasn't the fantastic gameplay 

M31 when she's not in either of her armours
infiltrator model
I almost imagined her like this 
the model I used for the stealth mission we did
and her guardian model- kind of like this
at least best I got so far 
also matches her colours in the little sticker justin used for her
her regular mode and infiltrator doesn't make her any bigger
but her guardian model makes her 7'1ft

I also like that for both pictures, you can kind of see her blue "eyes"
glowing from behind the visors
yup ! I do imagine that she "shows emotion" in her guardian form
by creating robotic faces like that, on her visor

:)
If u learn charm person or other mind manipulation spells u casting them could Just be this on the screen 
she does get "hypnotic pattern" actually, at level 9, as part of being an "armourer" subclass


we won't reach anywhere near that in the campaign
but once she hits level 14, she can finally deal with her greatest weakness
due to getting access to a certain magical item via infusion

it always go either way, but which term do you two prefer, dm or gm?
@proud pebble @violet cave

Well Anyway, maybe ill sober up a littlw
Ill try to not be a nuisance whilst playing
I thought this was a medieval fantasy setting the fuck is Samus Aran doing here?

Visual representation of her warforged

as far as I know, warforged have kind of a semi mysterious background, and/or reasons for creation
but a lot of them stem from being created as war machines from a past war- if you look at the warforged pages
it says stuff like "rising from the last war"

though some, like M31, was created with different original purposes in mind
M31 for example, while she forgot who created her, and has no memory of it
she enjoys creating and tinkering a lot- she's also an "envoy" variant warforged
meaning she was created with a more specialized purpose in mind

from the warforged page:
The warforged were built to fight in the Last War. The first warforged were mindless automatons, but House Cannith devoted vast resources to improving these steel soldiers. An unexpected breakthrough produced fully sentient soldiers, blending organic and inorganic materials. Warforged are made from wood and metal, but they can feel pain and emotion. Built as weapons, they must now find a purpose beyond the war. A warforged can be a steadfast ally, a cold-hearted killing machine, or a visionary in search of purpose and meaning.
Tournament rules, i have to
Just confirming is this in PST? Or GMT?
21:00 military clock
It's in your timezone
He used a discord timestamp so it auto converts to your timezone
the best part is that I get to choose what was her past >:)
The sound of insects flying through the air
Unknown: "Hmm yes. Maybe this... no that's not quite it but close.:
In the dephts of the swamp lies one who lse wonders scare thosea around him.
Unknown:" No if it should stop moving then that wouldn't work... hmm but it seemingly gets no air. Not what I was hoping for but nonetheless interesting."
The crocodile lies at the edge of the water surrounded by carcasses of its own species.
Unknown: I thought it shouldn't do that now. The speed must be amplified. Hmm maybe a cut or two on this one too to see if the thining works this time."
Blood floats through the air as if played by the wind.
Cloaked the one is whose magic makes the air around him filled with colour red.
Unknown:" I know the secrets lie within it. What I need to know, hwat must be known! If not for the ignorant we could have uncouvered its true nature ages ago."
From within the cloak a snout, scalled and green appears. Teeth to bite through the flesh of his enmies, hands with claws to slice through the norms that restrict him.
Unknown:" I will know it. All I can achieve. All that could be saved. I won't faulter now. It will happen and I will make sure of it."
The crocodile bound by magic, weakened by its wound goes for a last attack with sharp filled jaw only to have its blood pour through all of the gaps between his scales as if it was tfying to flee from its body and grasp the air.
Unknown: Disappointing. Such an brilliant end for such an unwilling test subject. A crocodile is all good and well but would this spell work for humanoids? Hmm the scales maybe yes, maybe Dragonborn or my bretheren but Elves and Humans still differ. I should focus more on the similarities of all. Noses, eyes, ears. That would prove to be much more versatile."
The cloaked one leaves his trail of blood and horror behind and wanders ever more to find the secrets of sanguine while filling his own footprints in its colour.
it should be auto corrected to your time zone
like it shows 8pm bst for me
I knew a cloaked one who was trying to uncover the secrets of sanguine once.
But the blood he was studying kept drying up and getting old.
So he discovered the secrets of sung-uine instead.
"Do you have some old dried blood? I need to do some magic. No: stop cutting yourself, fresh blood is useless to me..."
dm
he prefers unmerciful god 
we've already established
that mostly is carrying alot of weight 
The weight of a cannon
look, sometimes you gotta slap a player with the big dick of the consequences of their actions
You say this, and my brain starts immediately making associations.
Like, if I sold my fertility to the fae, the big dick consequences could be a small dick.

I like the gradual explaining of who and what the character is kind of in real time
So... as far as we know you could be 40 pixies in a trenchcoat, under the effect of the true polymorph spell?
<@&1284336728831950879> 
2 mins just running a trial thing
Leaving work now 
Thanks! I tried to go with a slow approach even if this is just a short period of time. Instead of forcing on a very quick introduction I wanted to let it simmer and make you want to read further. It was also to make it a bit more detached so that it's like viewing this moment from a far.
switched fighting style to Tunnel Fighter and taking Sentinel Feat
niiice
I thought it would be funny, since I'm going to be building towards inquisitive rogue and knowledge domain cleric, so I took the observant feat:
makes it more can(n)on that M31 is learning to fight by watching yaromir, too
Tomorrow
I'm happy my new fun spell worked out the first time I cast it
I had hoped to tell him to trust me as I cast it, for auto success

what is the stats my prima spirit barbarian want most?
can u cast it on urself as well?
yes, any target within 90ft, to an unoccupied other space within 90ft
sounds like misty step but better
I have to see it though, and they have to appear on a surface that can hold them
misty step is a bonus action, vortex warp is a full action

constitution and strength- rest in dex
Just a heads up for the saturday group, i have a student event which i'm organizing a team for and am a part of said team on 20.9.2025
This means that if things go as they are supposed to, i may not be able to make that day for the start of the session, or at all
Sorry in advance but i have fridays off entirely so if a reschedule is plausible for that specific day, there are no events that i know of yet happening
This event does begin at 11:00 and i dont know how long it lasts but if there's no afterparty with the team i can make it
depending on what race you pick, you might be able to increase those stats a bit-
either 18 con, 14 str
or
17 con, 15 str- and you can then use first feat as ASI making them 18 and 16 respectively
up to you what you want though
also depends on race as I said


Speaking of race is there a humanoid race thats big?
goliath

also gives you the stats you'd want, and a bonus cold resistance- along with a neat innate reaction
is a 7 -1 or -2?
-2 iirc
11 is +0 so 9 shoud also be that meaning 8 and 7 is -1 no?
7 is -2

and if you want, you can get ASI as your first feat, to reach 16 strength, though that's just if you care to raise your strength
or 20 con
you can also just get ASI for all your feats, so
lv4, 20 con
lv8, 16 str
lv 12, 18 str
lv 16, 20 str

though picking other feats might be more fun
what feat would the ASI replace 
depends what other feats you want
for barbarians, stuff like savage attacker, or great weapon master, are pretty good
as are "crusher, piercer and slasher" depending on weapon type you use
of course "tough" to bolster an already high health pool
i'm currently trying to decide on background before i look more into barbarian it self
I personally see the primal spirit barbarian as more of a like, "melee hunter"
so like, more in tune with nature and such, not simply a "raging bull"
fighting alongside their good beasty friend
folk hero sounds nice
i could be living in the forrest out side of town with my spirit compainion and frequently come to the aid of travelers who get lost or attacked by monsters
have you decided whether you want the "primal stalker" or primal guardian" as your pet friend?
i didn't realise there was something to chose from so i'll read that in a moment
think i like the giant foundling background
gives the strike of the giants feat
i like fire strike just cuz 1d10 extra dmg
is basically just whether you want it to be more of a protector friend and more tough
or if you want it to be stronger and faster, but not as tough
i think i like primal guardian
with a proficiency of +2, your "to hit" would be +4
the damage you do, would be 1d12+2

i can chose 2 languages giving me a total of 4 knows
2 first being common and giant
and both race and back ground gives me an extra language i can chose
does this site not have languages?
think i'll pick celestial as one
done ish
missing 1 language and ofc backstory
when having a special idea in mind for ur char i find it harder to pick a background that i feel fits
the given backgrounds are basically just "pointers" and "stat sticks"
simply pick something okay fitting- the actual background is what you write/make yourself

true but i still try to make it fit if only themeaticaly
oh it should fit, but you can make most things "fit"

even an evil character can be a "folk hero" in the past


that's the point of them, "backgrounds" are what happened in the past
true
but then the thing of having commoners hide u from guards might not fit as well
i'm excited to get to play my monk
i'm gonna make an assassin rogue which is basicaly just liger in a what if case
what if i picked assassin instead of trickster
trickster sounded more fun and usefull
but i wanna see how it would have worked out as an assassin
everything will be the same except stats, name and backstory
damage is fun, but it's also just damage
i'll have the assassin as a potential replacement for liger should he die and justine allows it
oh maybe the assassin char could have been some sort of mentor to liger 
making it now 
if i don't get atleast 1 stat with 18 i'm printing it and burning it and starting over
4,5,5,6=16
4,5,1,3=12
2,1,1,6=9
2,2,5,6=13
3,4,4,6=14
all 6's please
god of the dice gimme gimme
4,6,5,6=17
i know how to math
so dex:17 int:16 con:13 wis:13 cha:12 str:9
u wanna do ur 2 main stats and then con right?
ah i see my mistake here i had a 14
so con:14
wait did i roll more then 6
no
i'm just blind and tired
hmm tabaxi gives me +2 and +1 to 2 stats or +1 to tree 
+2 to int and +1 to dex would make both 18
+1 to dex, str and wis would make them dex:18 str:10 and wis:14
getting dex the +4 and not having -1 on str and a +2 on wis
yeah i think that seems like a good idea
true 
18 dex and int it is
hmm i wanna make it as close to liber as possible but i might switch from goblin to another language
and i might change some of my proficiencies so i can have even more 
it lets me chose 4 so just pick 4 that isn't part of what i get from my background
deception and stealth from background
means i can pick 1 more
a little late into the game for it now but does that mean i could technicaly pick 1 more for liger?
oh and tabaxie gives proficiency in perception and stealth
so now i can pick 2
my current options to chose from is insight, intimidation, performance and persuasion 
oh investigation as well
taking that cuz int
and insight
so if i had fully utilized all the proficiencies i could have had i would have started liger with 7 proficiencies
3 from race and background and 4 from just being rogue
i keep forgetting passive perception
passive perception is just 10, + your perception score
done 
so like, if you have +4 perception, your passive perception would be 14
your perception is +3, so 13 passive perception

liger is what a kitten born from a lion and tiger is called and felis is the name of the worlds deadlies cat
oh i thought it was wisdom mod
u chars made in 1 day 

even ligers passive perception was wrong
i have 6 chars now 
i should think more about what i want for my devotion paladin 
<@&1284336728831950879> Excellent work yesterday by the way, the claymore and the trapped windows gave you guys the advantage for the fight, including Sparks and Liger hiding up in the rafters.
The next chapter will be taking you into the heart of Maltor, after you interrogate the captured drow and secure the delivery with the Mafia. And then well..... let's see where the mystery goes 

<@&1248006648744902809> this the right ping? Well guys since Cannon won't remind anyone I will again incase you forgot but today is session 0 for us so be ready you mighty adventurers!
ah gotcha so see y'all in 20!
Oh fuck it's coming up in 10 minutes
I nearly forgot if I didn't watch something Baldurs Gate related and remembered about DnD and then from DnD got onto this again
@crude pelican @pastel idol @void hinge it's go time
Hey all I’ve just seen there’s a Tuesday game running is there a space and if so could I get more information please if so please ping me
You're more then welcome to join
we are having a session 0 to discuss the campaign on this Tuesday coming (The 2nd of August)
What time is the session?
3 hours before Jeannie would start streaming
so 12pm pst, 8pm Bst
Ok that time works for me tbh we’ll sorta the reason I’m asking is atm I’m currently in a campaign I want to leave lol
that's totally fine
I’m sorry for all the questions but I’m assuming it’s discord voice and what VTT do you use? Roll 20?
No vtt
we don't use a VTT yet
👍
questions are totally fine
All good
please feel free to ask anything
Yh is there any information you could give about the campaign?
That VTT caught me offguard. Means something entirely different in finland
what type of campaign will be run is still undecided and will be one of the things discussed during the session 0
Ok no worries thank you
Would it be possible if for session 0 I’m there for like 30 ish minutes or so as it’s mid dnd session for me and I would like to see if i would like to join before leaving but I can just let the dm know I’ll need to take a call for 30 mins mid session
(They don’t need to know why)
Looking good so far, good job
just need spells now
good session 0

my character is a lot of 1sts for me- evil aligned, not nearly as tough as I usually make my characters
pretty much full spell caster
If this is fine please let me know (ping me as no notifications)
Ok ty
nice remember to fill in the rest of ur skills like animal handling, history, nature all those things 
took a nap so didn't get to listen in on u guys >.<
I shouldn't need to though?
Or did I miss something?
i missed everyone ur not proficient in
u should fill out all of them just the ones ur proficient in gets a +2 added to them
cuz they apply to ability checks like if dm asks u to roll medicine u get a +3
there are rolls for all the different skill checks, each of them you aren't proficient in is just equal to their associated stat

basicaly add ur modifiers to the skills
Oh that
u can see which stats mod u need to add at the end of it like with acrobatics it says (dex) at the end meaning u add the dex modifier
it's just to make it easier to keep track of
u can zoom in on the document by holding CTRL and moving ur mouse
So if I need to look I can just look at my stats modifier if it isn't a skill I also have proficiency
do it how you want it Majora
I don't even know what CTRL is
PC idiot
button right below shift which is the button that lets u make CAPITAL letters like THIS
or just the button all the way in the bottom left of ur keyboard
probably the better explaination
this
anything beyond that can be figured out during game
most important that it works for you
indeed
I will have to ask
What sangomancy spells do exist
And
School of Sangromancy in Diabboru - Grim Hollow | World Anvil https://share.google/wQPu7xJPfU97QMWgr
And what that is
I thought I was him, subclass of Wizard
Yes but hkw that work
trying to see if i can find the spell list
at lv2 you choose to become a Sangroancer
idk what i'm looking for cuz i can't find it by name
it'd just be the wizard list
ah i see
but first thing says all sangromancy spells are added to the wizard spell list so i assume they aren't in there by default
Sorry for not getting more involved with the current campaign, or the new ones. I have a ton on my plate IRL.
no worries 
my complete character and sheet

Scaled brother
almost as short as you irl 
I read dragonborn can be over 6ft so I ran with it lolol
i'v been lazy with height and mostly just left them all at 5'5 made some 5'6 cuz that my irl height
you'd posted your char sheet right?
SCALE BROTHAAA
I just read that Lizardfolk are usually from 6 to 7 feet
7 FEET TALL LIZARD RAAAAAHHHH
Heck yeah tall lizard wizard
Majora is gonna be in the back with you so you can hide behind him too haha
This is my guy.
Art done by nefrin on DevianArt called "Argonian in a magical duel"
My tall ass is gonna stand behind the fighters while some gremlin is constantly walking under my tail trying to hide herself
ur guys's sheets looks so neat and clean far easier to read them my clustered mess >.<
I thank cannon for that he provided the sheets
oh not the sheets i have the same i mean how u have stuff written down
Oh gotcha yeah formatting is in my blood
mine looks a little messier cuz idk how to word things in a good way to make it all smaller and simpler >.<
I mostly copied stuff from wiki if it was way too long
We need to so I can bloodbend
I mean
Have a nice meal as a group together

I like our odds on getting past lvl 1
Hey
We got like what?
3 fighters
1 Wizard
And a cleric who might heal us if she isn't too evil

Yup I was just about to say
Well she surely will find me useful
Such as she will be useful to my goals
her turns will rarely if at all be spent on healing
but rather, her purpose is to control enemies and cause
debilitating debuffs upon them, so they cannot do what they want
and we easier can handle them
for combat that is
so about that...
DM gonna drop a nuke on us in session one 😭
i just realised how good the raven queens blessing can be
it works like misty step with that i can teleport up to 30ft but i also gain resistance to all dmg untill my next turn
and durring that time i apear ghostly or translucent
yes
Ok so 3 fighters atleast
Had to switch
ah i see
Cannon pulled him to us cause someone new came up and wanted tuesday specifically
one more then before
still playing with necro, drake and bomparm 
good for intercepting enemies advancing on more fragile allies
the long death monk is a sort of half-tank version of monk, after all

1
All of the games we ran so far start at 1
Because we have ppl still learning the game

Ok thank you
do dark souls style and just let them find out everything with pain 🙂
The main reason I ask is because I have a level 3 character I really want to play in a campaign lol
They are called soup
well it does somewhat depend on what type of campaign y'all decide you want to do
True
you can temporarily level him down?
or get your abilities restricted for a while. up to the dm
The problem is his cauldron is his steel defender
And artificers get that at level 3
or you can ask cannon if he can temporarily restrict your charater in certain ways. you have to agree on what tho. or you can use a regular couldron for now which can turn into an ability later
see it as your character evolving to learn to make his cauldron a steel defender instead of it already being that way
Yh
True
if ur interested in trying something new then we can use all of these sub classes in the campaign 
i'm already getting art made for my character, so that'll be a no
art made?
Yh I’ll probably stick to dnd beyond classes
i made a commission for someone to make character art
I’m assuming we don’t know if it will be 2024 or 2014
?
ask cannon for the specifics
2024
2014
wait really?
val don't answer for me please
it's 5e
yes 5e from 2014
aka 2014
i'v been useing this the entier time and it's 2024?
Ok ty
no it's not Val
that's 5th ed
that's the 2014 stuff
it's just giving a link for the 2024 stuff
you use dnd beyond? cus i had a similar issue
ah i see thats why i was confused
here me out- a tempest cleric for the "destructive wrath" channel divinity
multiclassing paladin for thunderous smite

sorry trying to be helpfull and thought i knew the answer >.<
if 2014 is 5th edition what editon is 2024?
6th or has it gone further?
1D&D 🤮
😂😂😂😂
stupid name
the only part of 2024 I like, is the 19th feats being changed into "epic boons"
1dnd to rule them all
and val's character just died 
@sturdy agate
is there subclasses in regular dnd that u can start in as lv.1?
cuz it seems first vampire starts at lv.1
ah i see

i'll probably just be spending tomorrow actualy writing my background story 
i have it losely thought out just haven't written it
I think sorcerer is 1st level too
Yea my wizard needs to wait fir lvl2 to show of his blood magic
Same I want to see the campaign first and see what we decide on
think of it like you're in the mist of studying it, and almost got it

When I'm level 2 though I probably will go for all Sangromancy spells in my slots
I do want to mainly be a Hemomancer
oh only thing stopping me is lazyness
With a few other arcane basic spells up my sleeve
just fyi, doing that will limit your spell casting more
most of the sangromancy spells require you to spend a hit die to use
Yea I know about that rp cause I had it on some Skyrim builds but dor this one I will just say that he didn't show off his real talent till he got to know the party more
so at level 2 it's 2 spells per long rest for him then?
3 spells at lv2
my character for cannon's campaign is multiclassing first thing at 2nd level- need aberrant mind sorcerer 
then going all the way to lv11 cleric, and continuing sorcerer after that
but 2 hit dice?
And find them to be not too idiotic too chase him immediatly off for his special kind of magic
Hit die was what again?
at least the sangromancer gets extra hit dice to use as well

the D6
i plan on having my character be a reaper a servant of the raven queen one of the god of death
strong ones too, though limited
But how different is that to normal spellcasting?
it will be revealed likely when you see the spells
casting a normal spell just uses a spell slot
casting a sangromancy spell uses a spell slot and a hit die
I see
yee, basically because you're using your own blood
