It sounds like Mattel will disallow the use of AI generated images in future official works:
The Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game franchise says it won’t allow artists to use artificial intelligence technology to draw its cast of sorcerers, druids and other characters and scenery.
Sorry for jumping into the conversation so late, but what’s the feeling on podcasts? I have a very small one that I’m quite proud of, and I’d love to share it. I don’t think a post for every new episode release should be allowed, but I feel like an occasional post about milestones or information that others could use should be acceptable. In essence, posts intended to engage with everyone instead of just sell to them.
What’s your release schedule like to begin with? Of it’s weekly thats probably too much, but an episode a month is probably fine to post them here. Otherwise yeah if it’s weekly probably limit it to every once in a while, important episodes or milestones etc
We release every other week, but I like to post maps, stories, and other homebrewed content instead of just saying, “Episode 538 is out now! Please listen to my stuff!”
I do think it’s important to be a member of a community instead of just using a community. So maybe there’s a criteria of interaction that comes along with self-promotion?
Drop a link in my DMs I’ll subscribe! But back on topic, any time you post a map, a DM log or something like that you can feel free to include a link to your podcast in the post body.
Hoo boy! I wish you and your party much luck, that's a really fun encounter.
I was the DM for that, my group: Tabaxi ranger, Yuan-ti necromancer, Human battlemaster. When the great Lich appeared, our wizard cast fly on the fighter, who used the disarm maneuver on Acererak, took his staff and broke it over his knee, causing a massive AOE that he barely survived. This was enough to deal sufficient damage to make Acererak retreat while giving him another reason to hold a grudge. It was very epic and I was proud of my party for using such great tactics.
They are two different method for assigning your starting stats for your character. On p13 of the Players handbook under section Determining Ability Scores. It’s not explicitly named “Standard Array” but you can assign these numbers to your stats: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8. Point buy is explained in the section Variant: Customizing Ability Scores. You get 27 points to spend on your ability scores. Each score starts at 8 and the costs are: 8 - 0 points 9 - 1 point 10 - 2 points 11 - 3 points 12 - 4 points 13 - 5 points 14 - 7 points 15 - 9 points.
Heh. Well, to put it simply: it was a classic crawl of his own devising (could’ve been one of the other OG’s, I don’t actually recall all I know is that it was brutally unforgiving) and he had a stack of pre-gens next to his screen. At first, I assumed they were errata, campaign notes, etc., but all became clear as we started to die. The crowd around the table was on edge, like some fanatical musical chairs ritual. As soon as the player of the freshly dead PC didn’t immediately fork over another $5 for a new character sheet from the pile, the clamor erupted. Predating Fry by decades, the shouts were more or less the same: takemymoney! 😅🤦🏼♂️
To each their own, but I never DMed anything like that ever again. I hope that was his intention; playing 4D mental chess with the new generation. 🤞🏼
To be fair, he was only one of the guys, and was known for taking the spotlight more often than not. Personally, I’m more partial to Ed Greenwood’s contributions, for instance, and the establishing storylines of Melf, Fizban, Bigby, Mordenkainen, et al. 🤓🤘🏼
Ooo, some nice monster options here! Things like the Kobold Chieftan remind me of things I’ve been hearing about in MCDM’s upcoming Flee Mortals! I checked out the preview at mcdm.gg/FleeMortalsPreview and it looks like a lot of fun.
Thank you! Ya, not gonna lie it is haha I wouldn’t be able to do it without my Patrons. Even crazier is that I’m starting work on Fully Prepping the entirety of Curse of Strahd next! Wish me luck!
Dear friend, this is beyond amazing. I have wanted to get back to being a DM for a while now but life is busy and all those excuses. I am positively giddy for the angles your help opens op. Thank you so much for this post!
You’re so very welcome! That’s exactly why I wanted to create Advent’s Amazing Advice, being a DM can be a ton of work and just feel overwhelming, but I hope with this you can just sit back relax and enjoy some Amazing games!!! If you get the chance to use my notes please let me know how it goes!
