concept: a death god that is actually surprisingly supportive and on the side of the good guys, supporting actions and promoting policies that will lead to the kingdom growing and thriving instead of being destroyed, because the more the kingdom grows, the more people there are, and the more people there are the more people will eventually  die, and when you’re an immortal god of death, you know there’s no need to rush. you’ll get them all in the end

[mikkeneko]

i like how the responses on this post are cleanly split between “hey this is a great story idea i love it” and “this is absolutely terrifying”

[honourablejester]

Yes. A Death that is kind, and patient, and inevitable.

A Death that need not fight against you, that will often fight for you, because why not? It will gather you home eventually. Why not enjoy you first?

A Death that treasures those who fight it most ardently. That loves healers and defenders and survivalists and necromancers and mad scientists and immortal gods. That lets them pour everything they are into fighting it, denying it, adoring every desperate scrap of strength and will and brilliance and raw determination poured out against it. That catches you when your strength is done and all your will and brilliance run out, that gathers you close beneath a warm, dark cloak, and whispers well done, oh child, you were magnificent, well done.

A Death who will not seek to hasten an inevitable end, who will chastise those who seek to hasten it for others in Death’s stead, who will slowly and patiently plot and sow and siphon away from the great monsters of the world. Because who are they to hasten Death’s domain, who are they to deny Death its time and its place, who are they to cut short these vital glories that illuminate it so? Who are they to presume upon its will, that is so much larger and so much longer than theirs?

Who are they to call, and presume that Death, of all beings, should obey?

A Death that is not a hunter but a gatherer, who is always and eternal, who loves you, and can afford to wait. A Death who will fight for you and defend you, who will place its hand upon those who would speed you to its embrace, who has no need to rush you, only to greet you when you call.

A Death who is kind.

And patient.

And, before all and above all,

inevitable.

Dear women D&D players,

I’m a huge podcast fan, and I listen to a lot of Dungeon and Dragons/roll playing game podcasts. What I feel is missing is women playing D&D. Especially women DMs. I think the world is missing out on hearing how fun women playing D&D must be. And how different it must be. I for one would be thankful to find it and hear it. I hope I get to hear a women led rpg podcast someday. Thank you.

Girls Guts Glory comes to mind as well as Shieldmaidens. Both are an all-female D&D game groups that do youtube videos/streams/podcasts

[lawfulgoodness]

Including links for 

Girls Guts Glory

Shield Maidens: Deadly Dames do D&D (althought the DM is a dude, the rest of the players are women.)

@damesanddragons -  A 5E dnd podcast

[legendlarkpod]

Thanks a million for recommending us, @lawfulgoodness​!!! :)

Here are some more lady-laden D&D podcasts for consideration:

Venture Maidens

Dungeons, Dice & Everything Nice

ZeroD20 - male DM but female players

Roll for Wenches

Podquest: No Strangers to Adventure - male players but female DM

[lawfulgoodness]

Updating with more recommendations from the notes:

The D20 Babes - (all-female cast, DM’ed by one of the writers of “Rat Queens,” Kurtis Wiebe.

@dungeonsandlesbians - A pretty new group with audio of their games available on their tumblr page.

“She’s a Super Geek” - Not strictly a d&d-site, but focused on women in geek circles, especially RPGs.

[thefierceking]

My favorite one is not only female DM, but all the players are female as well. @dungeons-dice It’s called Dungeons, Dice, and Everything Nice. They just finished their first season/arc and already starting the next. They are a super cool and you should give them a chance.

[dungeons-dice]

I love this post so so much and we are so honored to be included among these names. Also, I’ve gotten some people being like ‘lol don’t u know there’s already an all female d&d podcast?’ 

There should be TONS. We are not competition. We are a cult and we WILL CAST SPELLS ON YOU. I will stand by my other lady dnd pods until DEATH. 

thx, 

km
