Potion of...

Roll for initiative!

researching parrying daggers as a fun little treat and i'm delighted by how much every single one of these things looks like it's designed to be as annoying as possible

[valtsv]

this one is my favourite. it's called a swordbreaker. it looks like a weaponised version of snagging your clothes on a door handle. if you caught my blade in one of these things there isn't a force on earth that could deliver you from my fury.

[juney-blues]

deliver your fury with what? your sword?

This looks like a great weapon I shall have to create for a certain rogue in my D&D group

A DND campaign I had with friends.

So, I was playing DND with my friends and one thing led to another and they entered a town, saved a woman from being killed (by seducing her killer and killing him afterwards), she died anyway and gave them her son. They then adopted the son and named him Robert, never questioned why his skin was an odd color or the fact he had some sharp fangs OR the fact he was bigger than a normal human, then the bard decided to sing in a church (rolled a NAT 1) and the rogue wanted to burn the church down (rolled a NAT 20). The child’s LIVING father was inside that church, he died. Robert then died after being dropped from a large height, they revived him with the help of a necromancer (after accidentally swapping his soul with a monkey’s), and they finally realized he was a half orc child AND WAS BLIND, AFTER I MADE SEVERAL SCENARIOS WHERE IT WAS OBVIOUS HE WAS BLIND. I can’t.🪰

Oh wow. I love this. You never know what your players are gonna do and it is just a joy to ride the journey with them as the DM xD

To unlock a door....

[The party come across a door to a house, unexplored]

Warlock: We should knock. It's polite to knock. The correct etiquette.

[The warlock knocks and receives no answer]

Rogue: [With an eye roll] Please. This is where I shine! Let's lock pick it.

[The Rogue proceeds to lock pick while the bard stands by and facepalms after many attempts to get them to follow the law]

[An audible clunk is heard]

Rogue: Ahah! Got it. Now we just have to...

[The Rogue tries to open the door to find that the door is now locked]

Rogue: Fuck.

Barbarian: That's it. I'm breaking it down. Warlock & Bard & Druid: [sigh simultaneously and follow the others]

What do you think?

I'm just starting to learn to DM...and boy am I enjoying it!

I'm not sure why I didn't start to learn earlier. I haven't played much because it's always been trouble trying to find a DM.

So, I guess I want to ask...why don't people like to DM? (Just so I can know things ahead of time to avoid burnout :) )

IMPORTANT!!!

that is all

[podcastwizard]

dnd jokes that will always be funny no matter what your dm tells you

"jesus christ" "who's that"

"this is just like (tv show/movie)" "that's my favorite play"

referring to famous musicians or actors from the real world as "bards"

adding the word "fantasy" in front of modern things (i pull out my Fantasy iPhone and open Fantasy Tinder)

"how hurt are you" "on a scale of one to twenty-eight i'd say i'm at about a nine."

feel free to add more

[potionof]

I love this so much.

[tadfools]

I might've added the BG3 Art Book to my dnd assets stash

It' 100% does not have things like the 5e players' handbook + 5e’s character sheet, several gm guides, critical role's explorer's guide to wildmount, baldur's gate and waterdeep city encounters, 101 potions and their effects, volo's guide to monsters, both of xanathar's guides, a bunch of other encounters, one shots, and class builds

In no way are there any pdf’s relating to any wizard who may or may not be residing on any coast

(Edit that I’ve moved the folder to the new link above! So if you catch a different version of this post that link won’t work anymore!)

People saying that "playing dnd doesnt have to cost anything" and "it can be fun even without all the books and expensive maps and minis" may be right but have you seen some of the dice out there????? Fucking beautiful

[potionof]

Man, I would 100% own a million dice if I had the room. There are some BEAUTIFUL collections out there!
