Thanks for that suggestion! I’ll try to find it, too. Maybe that will help it click for me, too.

Surprisingly perhaps, I’ve never heard anything but good things about him. But then I’ve never actually looked into his personality or life, just his contributions to D&D.

I don’t think it sounds stupid at all. PBTA requires a shift in how you think of rpg’s unless you started with that system. I’ve always been told that, and it seems to be true. I’m still kind of wrapping my head around it, myself. I’ve always loved the idea of it, even if I haven’t gotten it down yet, though. I bought Dungeon World, Blades in the Dark, Monster Hearts, and the Avatar rpg Kickstarter with all the extras. I wonder if I need someone else to DM me with other players around who can play it right before I can DM others, because I don’t feel like I’ve quite gotten it down despite all that lol.

Really? That second teleport ability sounds super fun. It means the players have to run around the battlefield fighting the monster, and interacting with the terrain, not just standing in front of each other trading blows. Plus it only happens once a round anyway so you can strategize around it.

The first ability also sounds super cool. At that level there are ways around these things anyway. The friendly casters may have teleports of fly spells, players have dimension door and other crazy abilities from their various magic items they’ve collected for 20 levels, and a DC 27 save at that level probably isn’t that hard to hit anyway.

Just goes to show how subjective fun is I suppose because that description makes me more excited to fight that then the standard bag of hit points 5e tarrasque.

Oh ya, makes sense actually. Must be the other one.

I think MCDM had cool ideas about this in one of their books, including some sample ready made parties. Of course you’d have to convert them from 5e to PF2, but still it might not be a bad source of inspiration. It must have been either Flee, Mortals or Where Evil Lives.

It sounds interesting although unfortunately I’ve only read the first Brandon Sanderson Mistborn book. Maybe getting the rpg would encourage me to finish the rest of them lol.

Same. The monsters are amazing, and would be a big boost to 5e, but I haven’t been playing it as much lately.

Cool list. #10 reminds me of Vash the Stampede

I really need to read those books lol.

I was very surprised. Then I was surprised at how surprised I was. Oh well, never meet your heroes. Or look into their opinions on race, gender, or sex lol.

Yet apparently a bunch of people need to learn that, because according to the author when they brought up his flaws in a book, people were falling over themselves to say he was besmirching his good name or slandering Gygax and stuff like that. People need to learn their heroes aren’t perfect, even now, and that’s why I think it’s good this article is spread and read. Not everyone knows to separate the author and their work.

I would blame social media for encouraging parasocial relations, but this is the kind of stuff that existed before the internet, with other musicians and artists and authors, and it’s brought up in academic courses on similar work, so I guess it’s just a human thing that people need to be aware of.

I mean there’s a pretty blatant quote in there, too.

Thanks!

So does Firefox make this more unique or something? I didn’t know this was a thing but I’m interested in privacy and it sound like something I should be looking into.

Quality content! I’d love to get more into LARP but coming up with an original character is difficult for me sometimes, and role playing for such long amounts of time seem tiring.

Oh that’s cool. I’m happy that it exists and now kinda sad it’s only owned by one VTT. That would’ve been a good resource for other VTT’s out there.

I have no idea what Demiplane is but I do hate to see companies buy other companies.

For some reason, my players tend to like it, but as a DM, I’ve always found it boring as hell.

Anyone know any differences yet? I had always heard good things about 13th Age but never actually got around to playing it. Although it sounded very fun as like a theater of the mind capable 4th edition.
