New Daggerheart book is out and I have positive thoughts!
The book cover is beautiful to start
I admire her commitment to community service
So they got 4 new classes. 2 martial and 2 magical. KINDA surprised it took this long for the Monk class to show up but having the alt build be a pro wrestler was worth the wait.
You can play as angels now so your players can finally have that tiefling/aasimar forbidden romance at your table before you have to spray them down with a water bottle
GNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMESSS!!! "Oooh look at meee I'm a halfling but extra magical and I'm going to spam BLINK every time combat happens!!!"
Okay, now we're talking. The expansion lets you have Vampire/Werewolf/Frankenstein expanded Transformations! They're a little on the simple side as far as rules go so there are no stats on leveling up to Legendary Lycan or Vampire Lord but I guess they're keeping it simple for now.
Your weeb friend at the table can shut up now
Almost every other table is totally going to ignore the non intoxicating part, aren't they?
Pretty sure these are just moblins?
...
Wait a sec…. Daggerheart is from the folks doing Critical Role…. Critical Role fans are called……
There's no joke this BASILISK is just beautiful
WOAH
THAT'S A MUMMY!
COOL!
You know you CAN just call them mimics? Right? Like…. no one is calling it a Ravenous Mockery…. (Wait did D&D finally trademark or whatever the MIMIC?)
HOLY SHIT ITS MOTHMAN!!!
This is just hellraiser
but on the other hand
HOLY SHIT ITS HELLRAISER!
BEACH DAY EPISODE now has stats. What a time to be alive.
Okay now these are the 'sample adventure settings and… they're fine? They have a bit more meat on the bones than the ones in the last book but I was kinda wishing they would just put out full on campaign books instead. YA Book world, Disney movie world, Goth world, and JRPG world. They're… fine.
All in all this book is awesome and I can't wait for my physical copy to come in the mail! Also can't wait to see what my players bring to the table this weekend!
Tuvok, to Chakotay: When you see Captain Janeway, give her this message *makes a neutral face*
Tuvok: She will understand what it means.
*later*
Chakotay: oh, and Tuvok said to give you a message.
Chakotay: *makes a neutral face*
Janeway: Oh no. The neutral face of displeasure.
Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.
Yes, these are too many Wonder Woman villain cameos to be a coincidence. I want the same crew to make My Adventures With Wonder Woman with the same hope punk optimism with two scoops of playfully horny. The world is ready for a Wonder Woman show again.
For this drawing I challenged myself to keep it more sketch-like.
And… I think I like the result? :D
Story-wise: This drawing is showing the past and present of the elves Vannatir (high elf) and Deimos (dark elf).
I wanted to fully show the contrast of their current warlock pact situation compared to their happy past within one drawing.
So since they never codified the Super human registration act in Civil War, what would you like to see? I really wish more superhero work addressed the legal and ethical issues of vigilantiism like Watchmen did.
Oversight and whatnot ARE important, so registration feels like it should be necessary... but only to a certain degree. For instance, if you're going to engage in vigilante activity, you have to note a codename, a general area of operation, powers, detailed description of costume appearance, any known enemies, etc. That way if someone breaks out of prison or is on parole, it's known that they may be going after that hero in revenge. In turn, if you're a vigilante who has broken the law or there's a warrant out for you, the registration allows people (in particular other heroes) to keep an eye out for you if you're still trying to engage in activities. Some would argue that revealing a secret identity is necessary in that case there should be a right to privacy, as well. You still need the registration to actively engage in superheroics, but it's there - again - just for the legal bureaucracy necessary for general oversight as part of the regular legal system.
I'm sure others can tear this idea apart, but that's where I see it being beneficial. Aztek, a short-lived DC character, featured a form of superhero registration like that.
Personally I liked what My Hero Academia had for people with super powers.
"Hey, you got powers? Cool. Wanna use them in PUBLIC?! Awesome, go take a safety class and get a license. Otherwise keep those powers at HOME"
You didn't even HAVE to register as a crime fighter, you could just be first responder doing search and rescue in the mountains or join the coast guard.
