This was a great stream, by the way. I'm glad your group were able to play remotely. Looking forward to Bard challenges/duels, next time!

Prestige Class (3.5e): Order of the Silver Bow
August 2020
Ooooh, I like this. And you could do something similar for other weapon specialists groups. These kinds of Prestige classes that you can unlock around level 5 are a great addition for Players who really like customized characters and don't want to w…

'QUEST'ION OF THE MONTH - JUNE 2020
June 2020
I played in an old 2nd Ed. D&D game a long time ago and our cleric was trying to rebuild his religion from scratch after an apocalyptic age where almost no civilization was left. Went from level 1 to level 20, so he eventually had access to all …

Quest Complete: Video Tutorial Collection I couldn't find Micah's old Textile training videos, @twiggyleaf - but that doesn't mean they're not out there, floating around. I was looking into The Wayback Machine to try and spot them, but if anybody…

No problem! I had to look it up. I pretend to have knowledge, but if Google ever goes down, I will be a lost cause.

Timezone
May 2020
Hi, @iunbaer ! Welcome to OP. I suspect the system is displaying CDT for Central Daylight Time, also known as Central Daylight Savings Time. It should automatically go to CST or Central Standard Time in the winter. It's set up so that if you have pl…

@JaymesBolton - I love those "shower ideas." Whoever is beaming them into my brain at odd hours of distraction is very clever.

Spelljammer System Building
March 2020
Outstanding system-building mechanics, here. Well done! And, you could easily adapt these to any kind of spacefaring exploration game. I think you covered just about everything there is to cover for random generation down to the world level. Is a mi…

'QUEST'ION OF THE MONTH - MARCH 2020
March 2020
I tinker with custom, homebrew rules sets and game systems. There's a stack of notebooks sitting in the office full of statistics on dice rolling, idea lists, and sample combats. I find the mechanics just as fun as the setting and I'm always looking…

There is a MASSIVE elephant in the room!

Our weekly in-person group is on pause while we consider various remote options. Those that get some free time out of the deal will probably come up with some amazing new campaigns, rule systems, character concepts, and homemade miniature terrain, I…

@Conan_Lybarian Yes, your "Forum" tab text is blank, for me. I'll show it to the team today on our call and find a fix. Thanks for testing it for us!

@Conan_Lybarian, you should message HoustonDM about it. I just found him. He does live games professionally as a side-gig. Here's his website: https://houstondungeonmaster.com/. And his blog is good, too.

Great ideas, @Conan_Lybarian! Kudzu's are a brilliant thought. They infiltrate and strangle. Perfect parallel. You could even subdivide such a tribe into other invasive species of non-tree plants and really play up the idea that they seem so innocuo…

Sticky Notes/ Self Reminders
January 2020
Oooh, I third the idea. Anything to help organize my loose notes is a plus. Do we need an icon for that? Maybe a scroll with a spider's web on it?

Holy crap! Ptolus is coming to 5E!

I just saw this yesterday and mentioned it on my stream. I love me some mega-city/mega-dungeon games. They're doing a version for their Cypher system, too.

The "Review my Campaign" thread
January 2020
@gastoff - Dude! Those transitions from sepia-tone to color in the Character Portraits are exceptionally cool. I don't know what you could do to add to that -- it's already fantastic! I just want to see more of your craft in action. Well done!

@Conan_Lybarian - Sorry about the delay in response. The holiday insanity diverted my attentions. I had not really thought too much beyond these initial seed-ideas until now. I'd say the Forest World setting could be either a large region within an …

It's all about the presentation and the prestige, @Conan_Lybarian !! Love it. One of my recent favorites was a standard tower shield that my Dwarven Shield Specialist hauled around. It had a pocket welded behind the handle where an Immovable Rod (cl…

I have a couple that stand out. My favorite was when our party of futuristic mercenaries were dropped off in the airlock of an underwater research facility. As our submarine-taxi departs, we try to hack into the security panel and fail, setting off …

Hey, @KayDayMayDay -- The "male" and "female" radio buttons are actually for the random name generator and they're intention was for if you want to generate a "masculine" or "feminine" sounding name. (Although, many of the random names end up interc…

'QUEST'ION OF THE MONTH - SEPTEMBER 2019
September 2019
@Ghandi Good point about staying flexible. Improvising a way out of a tight story situation is an imperative GM skill. And I've also had games start to fold due to player drama -- back when we were all young and full of angst. We have mellowed subst…
