Real art. One way someone putting words into an AI model that probably stole from loads of artists would get paid.

Aha! A rare unsigned copy! I'd snap it up if I were you...

Sorry to say, but loads of kids don't want to read books. We have to drag them kicking and screaming through a reading curriculum and assume there is no reading done at home.

A motley selection of heroes have travelled to the Dyn Singh Nightmarket to try their hand at the market games, but they soon find themselves embroiled in ma... D&D : One Shot | Salted Legacy, aka The One With The Shrimp | D&D | Actual Play

Bon chance mon ami.

I can grab you some stuff mate. I'll do that when I get to my work laptop, probably tomorrow.
ADHD is a funny beast. Essentially, theres a million articles and books etc but it all comes down to patience and tolerance. It's hard.

I teach children with SEND. The strategies we use in education seem utterly absent in mainstream RPGs. I'm realising that puts another load on GMs and players that many/most will be ill equipped for.

Considering the amount of neurodiversity and/or special educational needs in our hobby, who's making the best adjustments and adaptations in the publishing and Con space? I'm struggling to think of any...!

Wait until you see Power Behind the Throne. Best scenario ever written. Almost unplayable.

16 and 12 here, as well as a 55 year old that doesn't always realise they see the world through a specific set of lenses.

I am also a parent of children with SEND. I have GMed for many children with SEND. At Cons, I have no doubt played with many people with SEND. I wish more people would speak up about their needs so that I could accommodate them better. None of that was the point of this cast. Hence, clumsy. Sorry.

I'm curious: let's say you're GMing at a Con or Meet Up, whatever. What player behaviour would you say was 'unacceptable'?

Sorry. Not my intent at all.

My DMs are open.

For the Emperor!

Bring him in to justice.
People who think "kill him" need to have a long, considered word with themselves.

Prepping missions for Band of Blades today. They need Operation code names. What have you got?

Je ne regret rien.

Well. Tonight's game was excellent. The players brought their A game, and I had a map, a manual and some situations to proffer. All you need is a loosely themed grab bag of 6 fantastic locations, 6 monsters, 6 setting vehicles (NPCs/clues/items) and just follow the fiction.

Yep.

Just a first pass list of monsters that are about right challenge wise, loosely themed and interesting to combo.
From here I make little d6 tables.

Here's the Monster Menu...

I have this so far.

Have been asked to run classic D&D tonight. No prob! Then, the overthinking. No brain, you don't need to buy a new book, sketch out a campaign, construct a screen, or make a mood board!
Graph paper and goblins. Let's go.

#DnD hack: want "yes but," and "no, but," in your d20? Take your DC, go one above and one below it, to make a result window.
Eg. DC 16? It's a success with consequence on a 15-17.
Move your numbers to suit your desired tone.

Had a crackling day.

Separated at birth? I think we should be told.

In a few hours I'll be loading up the fun wagon and full steam ahead to Owlbear & Wizard's Staff for two nights of beer and one day of tabletop bounty hunting. Cannot wait!
