First project of 2019! I’ve been wanting to do a comic based on this poem for a while. Some further reading on my points of reference if you’re curious!: x, x, x, x
donjon has tons of generators. for calendars. for demographics of a country and city. for names (both fantastical and historical) of people, nations, magics, etc.
this site lets you generate/design a city, allowing you to choose size, if you want a river or coast, walls around it, a temple, a main keep, etc.
this twitter, uncharted atlas, tweets generated maps of fantasy regions every hour.
and vulgar allows you to create a language, based on linguistic and grammatical structures!!! go international phonetic alphabet!!!
Vox Machina: Pike Trickfoot is the most powerful cleric in Tal'dorei. She is our heart, our light, and we would all readily die for her because we love her unconditionally. She is the light and fury of Sarenrae.
Mighty Nein: this is caduceus we found him in a graveyard and he makes dead people tea
Coming soon to a shadowy alleyway near you, it’s Maisie’s Slightly-Cursed Item Shop.
If you’ve been following my personal posts over the last couple days you’ll know I’ve been working on revamping the magic shop that shows up in the D&D campaign I run. It’s a pseudo pop-up shop that is (literally) run out of the coat pockets of a skeevy but earnest merchant named Maisie. The purpose of the store is to make magic items readily purchasable, but force the players to have to think of clever ways to get the items to work in their favour. No pain, no gain.
While some of the language is pretty specific to my campaign setting, I wrote these pages with the intention of having Maisie and her store be usable in other people’s games, so feel free to tweak her how you want if you decide to use her!
I’m literally just too broke, my friends. I left it a little late, but hopefully, it still works out. I’m gonna… apologize in advance for being obnoxious about this one too.
I gotta give Paypal $52 on January 20th. I’d like to be able to give it to them! I would actually like to avoid any late fee, that’s my biggest 2019 #want.
Thanks, guys. Thank you all for sharing it last time. Y’all really don’t understand how you saved me.
I’ve never actually played D&D before but I wanted to try my hand at creating some really dumb in-game items so here we go!
The Statue of General Unease: players who come within ten feet of this old, faded grey statue must make a DC 13 wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the player just gets sort of…creeped out. All wisdom, intelligence, and charisma-based skill checks are at a disadvantage, because it’s really hard to think properly, you guys, with that weird statue staring over my shoulder like that. You’re seeing this too, right?
The Tie of Persuasion: a nondescript black silk tie that once belonged to a used cart salesman. When worn this object grants the wearer +7 to all charisma checks involving the sale of vehicles. (Or: flip a coin. If heads, +7, if tails, -3)
The Wild Card: it looks like any regular six of diamonds. However, with a subtle tap it can change into any other card at any time. Additionally, once per day you can use this object to transform into a wild animal of the DM’s choice for the duration of one hour.
The Ring of Detection: glows faintly in the presence of humans.
The Wand of Indeterminate Magical Effect: this wand radiates immense magical power, but more often than not attempts to cast any kind of spell with it will fail. Once per day, you can roll percentage die. On any number from 2-99, nothing happens. On a 1 or 100, the user casts a Wish spell.
This may be the greatest writing on D&D of our lifetimes. I know it looks like a lot, but please read it, you will be so happy and you will either begin to understand D&D or else recognize this rightness in your SOUL.
this is so deeply correct i may never stop nodding
