Good lord Brett coming in with the move of having the rotting ghouls be the corpses of the fallen party members is fucking HAUNTING, man I’m glad I haven’t had a permadeath in my current game cuz I’d definitely have pulled that shit given the fact that the afterlives have all been cut off from the setting.

Genuinely disturbing seeing the zombified decomposing official art of beloved characters canonically becoming enemies post mortem.

Would anyone care to look at my DnD (Dungeons and Dragons) character?

I kinda wanna yap about him for a little while without feeling embarrassed.

Yesterday me and my friends had our first session of a new campaign. I can feel life coming back to me. I haven’t played dnd is so loooooong!

There's something about playing a bard and realising you can sort of rewrite reality with inspiration and silvery barbs and so on that just, activates something inside my brain. Like everyone else is powerful or whatever, but I am allowed to cheat

one of the things I've been thinking about recently is that it takes effort and practice to become a good ttrrpg player.

as a forever dm, i obviously knew this was true for dming. like. dming is clearly a skill that takes work and effort and practice. and it's a skill I've worked hard at!

but being a good player is also a skill that takes work and effort and practice. arguably less than what being a dm requires, but not nothing! and it's not something i knew about until i got more opportunities to be a player. (the thing is, I'm at a point where i do think I'm a good dm. i am NOT at that point as a player lmao. so I'm working on it.)

anyway. i don't know if Forever Players view being a player this way, but i think it's worth considering, especially given how much work dming is. what can you do to be a better player? in what ways can you support the other players and the dm? these are good questions to periodically ask yourself imo.

Don’t you love it when you find something that looks like your OC and immediatley buy it.
