Sup guys. I've been away from the forums for a while, and however much I would like to say I will return, this site simply does not hold as much joy for me as it once did.
I've grown somewhat older and my life has gotten busier. Siiiigh. All the D&D games I was in fell through, so I haven't been much playing much at all. However, I recently managed to DM a fun one shot over Zoom, which got me thinking about the game and the forums.
I just wanted to poke my head in here and say hi, and that I hope ya'll are doing well. It's really cool that this thread is still at least somewhat active! :)
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
BoringBard's long and tedious posts somehow manage to enrapture audiences. How? Because he used Charm Person, the #1 bard spell!
He/him pronouns. Call me Bard. PROUD NERD!

Almost no one from the "glory days" of this thread posts here anymore. :)
I took a 3 week break from DMing my weekly (remote) D&D game. One of my players in an in person game passed away, the day after we'd played. And that hit hard.
And then my wife had back surgery, with complications. So I've been her care taker (again).
I finally DM'ed a remote session this past Saturday, and it felt good to feel creative and laugh. I realize how much DMing is therapy for me. It's me being able to tell a story and hear reactions from my players immediately. For that moment, I am able to step away from reality and share stories and laugh. It's a pivotal escape for my life, before the requirements of the real world return.
The play by post Lord of the Rings 5e I run - it's fun but dreadfully slow, especially combat. So this won't last much longer, I am afraid. I have a good ending for it, a nice "end with a cliff hanger" type thing. But probably will be bringing this to an end in the very neat future. In the meantime, anyone who has been keeping up with my write ups from those sessions, here's session 16, the latest one (posted today)...
Metallic or gem dragon also works
I really like D&D, especially Ravenloft, Exandria and the Upside Down from Stranger Things. My pronouns are she/they (genderfae).
Agreed - metallic or gem dragon - or maybe a cosmic dragon.
Wisea$$ DM and Player since 1979.
I’d personally go with a Graphorn from the Harry Potter Franchise, but those are good options too.
