D&D Fridge

[graceful swallow]

D&D sniuff

[bleak lion]

I've never played dnd but I really love the idea of being a girl made of slime with pig tails and stuff

[ruby dock]

I wanna play DND but I have no idea how and have no materials whatsoever

but I have an idea for a silly pirate who would go on and try to rizz everyone :3

[acoustic iron]

same, seems like a fun game but i don’t have anyone to play it with

[graceful swallow]

Pirate pulling the classic bard move

[smoky abyss]

2 sessions ago my party had attempted to sneak into an NPC's parent's house, 2 of them rolled high. The rest? Nat fucking 1s

[bleak lion]

a pirate character sounds so cool actually that never came to mind

[smoky abyss]

My campaign before my current was pirate themed! ^-^

[acoustic iron]

i tried with a group of friends but we were all amateurs and couldn’t hold the campaign together

[ruby dock]

a blacksmith who's also an adventurer could also be an idea hehe

[smoky abyss]

wait holy shit threads don't have the timer LMAO

[graceful swallow]

I have a handful of D&D characters, I just no longer have anyone to play w/ due to no longer being on the best terms with my brother / the DM

[acoustic iron]

same, i made so many and cant use them

[ruby dock]

can DND be played online?

still very interested ^^

[smoky abyss]

I have a dnd character who is a goblin thats exactly that

[ruby dock]

I only get to roleplay so I guess that helps with experience

[ruby dock]

OOO

[smoky abyss]

Very much, my current campaign is actually over discord

[bleak lion]

now that you've mentioned it a slime pirate would probably be awesome

[smoky abyss]

literally half of us are from michigan and the other ohio LMAO

[bleak lion]

also is it possible to play dnd like over text

[desert tundra]

Oh sweet dnd chat

[desert tundra]

Entirely possible, all my dnd campaigns I'm in rn are over discord

[smoky abyss]

Text would be iffy, but potentially??

[acoustic iron]

i think so yeah

[smoky abyss]

Wait really what that's fucking sick

[desert tundra]

Yeye

[acoustic iron]

there’s a website where you can play it online i believe

like you can make a whole world and shit, add items

[smoky abyss]

wait I thought you said they were all over text LMAOO

[desert tundra]

That's how I got in to dnd, someone in a friend group server was just "hey anyone wanna play dnd" and I wanted in

[bleak lion]

I am going to start getting into dnd

[ruby dock]

I have a specific idea for a mute, tiny, shadow-like creature who talks shit about everyone in sign language but their translator makes it sound like they're singing praises ehe

[desert tundra]

Made myself a dragonborn wizard and haven't looked back since

[ruby dock]

DRAGONBORN

[bleak lion]

usually I see people doing it over call and I'm pretty insecure about my voice bcs I sound like alvin and the chipmunks as stoners

[desert tundra]

Beyond that I've made two other characters, a human rogue and a human bard

[smoky abyss]

I was gonna send my art of her but the thread wont let me grr

[versed laurel]

I don't know how to play dnd but I did premake a dwarf wizard character

[ruby dock]

SAME
I can't do calls snff

[versed laurel]

Even make art for it

[desert tundra]

Dragonborn is a sick fucking race

[ruby dock]

so a text-friendly dnd server would be very helpful

[bleak lion]

I made a mii of my little slime thing

[acoustic iron]

i had an idea for a guy who had the ability to summon birds to fight for him, but not like mythical strong birds, pigeons, and he has to roll a d20 to see how well the pigeons listen to his commands

[ruby dock]

PIGEONS

that is both
so funny and terrifying

[desert tundra]

I'm pretty sure generally dnd servers are text with an optional vc

[ruby dock]

could you imagine pigeons bodying you???

[versed laurel]

Wait that sounds so cool!

[ruby dock]

ah
thank god

[acoustic iron]

there was a lot of other factors

like he has to roll a d20 for how many pigeons

[ruby dock]

just having trouble grasping the rules
I'd like to experience it firsthand and learn the mechanics while ingame

[desert tundra]

But yeah best advice I can give before diving in headfirst is please read the player handbook lmao

[acoustic iron]

yeah same

[desert tundra]

I didn't before I jumped in and it was a bit confusing at first

[acoustic iron]

i bought a players handbook but don’t have much use for it

[desert tundra]

But in practice the rules make a ton of sense

[smoky abyss]

You can do all the reading you want, but personally the best way to learn the rules to to be playing lol

[ruby dock]

yeah
and the character forms gave me a nightmare

[desert tundra]

(Though I'm no expert at the game lol, still don't have an iron grasp on the rules yet)

[acoustic iron]

yeah i realized then when i was reading the players handbook lol

[ruby dock]

it's so cool how detailed they are
but terrifying at the same time

[acoustic iron]

same anything complicated and i’m entirely lost

[desert tundra]

Best advice: use an online service like dnd beyond

[graceful swallow]

I'll list my d&d characters and yall can pick who I talk about first Aper, Sage, Asra, Löke, Sticks, Zilk(Star wars), Sync (Dragon Ball)

[smoky abyss]

I agree w this

[acoustic iron]

uuuuh aper

[ruby dock]

thank you ^^

[smoky abyss]

Dnd beyond has helped me SO incredibly much w learning the ropes

[desert tundra]

Those simplify the character creation process so much it is such a blessing

[acoustic iron]

i have, they still confuse me

[desert tundra]

(Also just rip art online for your character lmao)

[smoky abyss]

unless you're a loser like me that draws all day lMAO

[desert tundra]

(Everyone does it, no one's gonna judge)

[bleak lion]

Honestly I think character creationhas gotta be the part that really lures me towards dnd

[acoustic iron]

i could never, drawings hard

[bleak lion]

just having my little guys interact with other little guys in a set out story

[ruby dock]

IM SO GLAD.

[desert tundra]

Character creation is great yeah

Personally I really enjoy trying to like

Get into character

[bleak lion]

yes!!

[desert tundra]

Acting how I'd imagine they act and stuff like that

[smoky abyss]

I love doing little voices and stuff!!

[bleak lion]

I'm really big on drama so it's really awesome to do that

[smoky abyss]

^^

[ruby dock]

I love plot twists

[acoustic iron]

i am TERRIBLE at character creation, im bad at making backstory, creating personalities, and i’m terrible at the roleplaying part of dnd

[ruby dock]

and secretly
betrayal arcs...

[desert tundra]

Oh then rping in dnd is gonna be a breeze

[bleak lion]

I do somewhat literate rp as well

[desert tundra]

Which imo it should be to begin with, the party should flow somewhat well with each other

[graceful swallow]

Aper, my first D&D character was a Kenku Wizard in a campaign w/ my Mom and Sister than didn't last long but she was later transferred into another campaign that lasted much much longer. At one point she was turned into a Flying owlbear or a Kipine and stayed in that form for the rest of the Campaign until my brother decided to Abandon it

[desert tundra]

Based wizard enjoyer????

[acoustic iron]

me personally i go barbarian

why think when rage?

[ruby dock]

REAL

[desert tundra]

I fucking love spellcasters

I want to fucking cast spells to destroy my enemies

[bleak lion]

roles that focus more on magic are so awesome

[desert tundra]

Hell even something more buff-focused like bard is pretty fucking epic

[ruby dock]

I'm too big on bard though

[desert tundra]

You just help the party wallop on shit

[smoky abyss]

NO I HAD THIS WHOLE THING LMAO

So in my first long term campaign, I had a cowboy guy named sakon, he was supposed to be cool and badass. I wanted to try and portray him as such, so I made him kill one of the antagonist's goons in cold blood. My party was super scared of him but took him in w them anyway. So with that I decided I was gonna have him kidnap all of their NPCs for ransom, and then he became the badguy lol

[graceful swallow]

I think I will simply go down the list tbh

[acoustic iron]

bard seem hella fun

[desert tundra]

Though I will say

[bleak lion]

I've always really enjoyed the idea of plants and stuff

[acoustic iron]

a cowboy? i’m sold that’s so fucking cool

[ruby dock]

I LOVE THIS SM

[ruby dock]

it does!!
that moment when you try flirting with the enemy

I want to experience that
let me experience that

[bleak lion]

Bard classes are so fascinating

[acoustic iron]

real, so terribly real

[desert tundra]

Bards have a bit of a stigma for being just the charm everyone type so trying anything else is seen as a blessing in the community

[smoky abyss]

God I wish I could send a drawing of him in here because I would totally show y'all LMAO

[acoustic iron]

i’m so invested in this cowboy

[bleak lion]

I like to watch videos about dnd and bard characters usually have really cool design choices

[smoky abyss]

i tried to say pics and it didn't let me LMAO

[desert tundra]

Like uuuuuuh

[smoky abyss]

Yeah, I gave Sakon this super country accent that was so fun to do

[desert tundra]

The bard I'm playing now, she was a medic who used her powers as a bard to weave magic into soothing lullabies she'd sing to patients

[ruby dock]

ah
bards who hit people with their lute instead of using it to lull them to sleep

[acoustic iron]

i am so bad at accents

[desert tundra]

More like hit on people tbh

[smoky abyss]

he even killed one of my players characters and I shit you not I literally cried the next day because of it

[ruby dock]

I like contradicting character traits the most

[smoky abyss]

we were all feeling SO EMOTIONAL

[graceful swallow]

Sage is a Homebrew Race (Felidae) & Class( Mounted Gunslinger) who has a Bullet mount named Tank, I dont remember much about the Campaign sadly

[smoky abyss]

Accents are my fav thing to do

[desert tundra]

But the whole fun of dnd is that you can really do whatever you want with your character

Hell homebrew is like a massive thing in dnd

[acoustic iron]

bullet mount? that’s the coolest shit i’ve heard all day

[bleak lion]

I would normally have such a hard time choosing a class to the point I would spin a wheel but the fact there is PLANT MAGIC has me so happy

[desert tundra]

There are whole homebrew classes and items based on pop culture stuff

[acoustic iron]

i don’t know what it means but it sounds cool

[ruby dock]

PLANT MAGIC :O

[desert tundra]

And sometimes it's just what sounds cool

[ruby dock]

I'm so down

[smoky abyss]

plant magic pog

[acoustic iron]

plant magic on 🔝

[desert tundra]

Though the hardest part about homebrew tends to be balance because some people just wanna go "yeah let's make it overpowered" or "I don't wanna make it overpowered so it's really underpowered"

[acoustic iron]

fire better tho

[desert tundra]

It's all about that perfect middle ground

Also ice trumps all other types of magic idc

[acoustic iron]

you probably used the ice staff on origins you nerd

[desert tundra]

Like yeah arson is cool and all but I wanna encase my foes in ice

[bleak lion]

The reason plant magic seems so awesome to me is the idea that plants can inflict poison, the idea that harbs and fruits can heal and so much more opens up a lot of possibilities

[acoustic iron]

fair, but like…. fire cool

[bleak lion]

fire is pretty cool yeah

but

water

[desert tundra]

Also Holy shit it's almost 2 am, I really spent like an hour talking about dnd in a server I just joined lmao

[bleak lion]

hydrokinetic powers

[smoky abyss]

REAL ME TOO

[acoustic iron]

yeah it’s 4 am for me

too lazy to sleep

[desert tundra]

Woah daylight savings hit

[smoky abyss]

wait fuck it's like 4am over here HAHAH LMAO

[desert tundra]

3 am WOOOOOOOO

[bleak lion]

damn it's 9pm for me

[acoustic iron]

same 💀 i am now too awake to sleep at all

[graceful swallow]

Asra is a Homebrew Race ( Domesticated Imp ) & Rouge who was brought from hell into the care of a wizard who wished to proof demons could be "tamed" but at the cost of the Imp slowly becoming more human like which caused quicker aging and experiencing growing pains more often

Asra was also like 14 in Imp yrs

[desert tundra]

All my characters have lore that is like

[bleak lion]

I forgot about the idea of like

[desert tundra]

A whole paragraph lmao

[bleak lion]

mythical races

[smoky abyss]

unrelated but I saw this one Kwite fanart with smoke drawn as a cloud and I'm absolutely IN LOVE with that concept lmao

so much that I'm doing it in a drawing i'm workin on rn haha

[desert tundra]

Uhhhh I can try to condense them though

[acoustic iron]

my characters lore is usually like 3 sentences… i am TERRIBLE at lore making

[bleak lion]

My character lore would be like

two pages long at least

i LOVE writing

[desert tundra]

First up, Samir Dresden. Silver dragonbron wizard that focuses on ice magic and hails (heh) from the coldest region in the world of the campaign. While he wasn't born with these powers, he was tutored by a family member in the magic arts, and now travels as a way to learn more about magic and it's uses

[bleak lion]

I love slimefolk

i love the idea of slime people

just being like a human built pile of goop and gunk

[acoustic iron]

orks and dragonborn’s are my go too

[smoky abyss]

That makes me wanna create a race of slime people in mu current campaign haha

[bleak lion]

you should

[acoustic iron]

er orcs? i forgot the dnd spelling and the warhammer spelling

[desert tundra]

Next, Onnord Heartwing. Rogue thief coming from a kingdom of corrupt nobles that leave the peasants to essentially rot. He had to start stealing at an early age to stay alive basically. Eventually he started stealing from nobles which lead to him joining the party in an attempt to be more than just a petty thief

[graceful swallow]

Löke is a Pureblood Yuan-ti (Snake people) & a Homebrew class (gravewalker) who's in love with the grim reaper and seeked any moment to be with grim reaper but due to his class he's always sent back, at the end of the campaign he becomes a God of death himself

[acoustic iron]

woah gravewalker? what’s that

[graceful swallow]

I'll have to ask my DM again bc it's been a while

[desert tundra]

And finally is Rylee Searun, my human bard. She was just your average girl (though tall af she's 6 foot lmao) until she met a bard who she began to study the art of being a bard under. She eventually used this power to tend to the wounded, basically becoming a medic. She eventually fell into the labyrinth the party is trying to escape and is assisting them on their way to freedom

I fucking love character creation and making lore out of thin air for characters I made literal moments before

[acoustic iron]

i have a bad habit of creating new characters mid campaign and wanting to use them, but also not wanting to kill off my current character, i’ve done it like 3 times now

[desert tundra]

Anyways uh yeah 3 am I need sleep see yall later lmao

[acoustic iron]

fair, gn

[bleak lion]

goodnight !

[smoky abyss]

Gngn <33 /p

[graceful swallow]

Sticks was a Fae Child & Doctor that was murdered by his family because they believed he went insane over the years for not giving them money for all of his years of treating people.( The campaign takes place in undead state and acts similar to Dark souls' when Leveling up. ) after being murdered he did go insane and only talked to sticks so the other party members called him sticks

[bleak lion]

holy shit i did not consider a ghost character

grrr so many ideas

[smoky abyss]

So i have a player that's kinda on and off, they play a firbolg wizard teacher. Since they're so on and off when they had showed up last session, you could probably imagine the absolute shock when they were asked by another party member to quote unquote "watch the hostage"

when they had said "what hostage", pretty much everyone burst out in immediate laughter lmao

[graceful swallow]

He did later become a different creatuee based off of a Native American Cryptid which I didn't know was a bad thing to do but now I know so I need to find a different name for said creature. But as his power grew he grew and he actually started to see enemies as candy which cased him to eat them and talked to trees and animals more often

[ruby dock]

👀

[smoky abyss]

yo what that's so cool haha

[graceful swallow]

Zilk was an NPC I played in a star wars campaign, I didn't have much story on them I just remember my brother misgendering them like crazy :/

[bleak lion]

holy shit there are campaigns for fandoms

this is wild

[ruby dock]

was thinking of
a child-like (or just a kid in general) villain that paints humanoid-like sludge zombies to fulfill their sick imagination
and they have no idea that what they're doing is wrong, being isolated for so long
and the little guy gets very defensive if the heroes try to reason with them

[ruby dock]

THERE ARE?

[bleak lion]

I was sketching an idea for a slime girl skrunkle

she just kinda looks like hatsune miku

[graceful swallow]

Yeah! I've done Mlp, Dragon ball, Star wars and I think my brother is doing a Lotr one but im not joining bc he'll start to expect me to just "get over my anxiety"

[bleak lion]

that's so awesome

[ruby dock]

MLP :O

I have an MLP oc hehe

[graceful swallow]

I think there's a homebrew for hs

[bleak lion]

hell yeah

[graceful swallow]

bruh why is the full word censored

[ruby dock]

his name is Russell Streak
and he's like
a little guy, a courier who trades info for money

[bleak lion]

I'm gonna be real I don't have the time to read hs but atp I know all of the characters personalities and typing quirks

[graceful swallow]

My mlp/d&d oc is named littlenote and he's the same as King Sombra

[ruby dock]

oooo!

interesting 👀

[graceful swallow]

He's got a big o' wizard hat

[bleak lion]

I love characters with big obnoxious hats

[ruby dock]

what's he like?

[graceful swallow]

He's very mellow and if I remember correctly he has a Non-binary partner who's a raptor pony??

[ruby dock]

AW

littlenote already has my heart

[graceful swallow]

I had his design played out pretty well but thought about redesigning him some

[ruby dock]

what kind of a pony is he?
