Some of us have encountered a problem. That problem is that the limitations for signatures on this forum (Length, size, and image size, just to name a couple). If you are one of these people, this thread is for you! Simply make a post with what you want to have in your signature, and then put a link to your post in your signature instead!

Oh, and it might be a good idea to unsubscribe from the thread once you post to it.

The Binder - I've written up a Binder class for 5e based on the class of the same name from 3.5's Tome of Magic, and I need help with making the vestiges - come and lend a hand, if you wish.

While this idea is a fair compromise, I think lobbying for longer signatures in general is just a good idea.

Oh. Then again, maybe it's something the moderators and staff didn't want to increase hahaha. That's fine either way. I'll just have to get creative with how I manage my signatures!

Yeah, I had a feeling those were the reasons haha. Thanks for informing us, Stormknight! Always happy to see how quickly the moderators respond to our needs and questions. I just hope we in turn show you all the respect you deserve :)

DMing in:

The Arena—Always Recruiting (Retired permanently), a PvP battle arena with a dash of roleplay and PvE thrown in.  Champion (Highest Level Participants): Larry, Disciple of the Darklord (Burgen_Badluk)

Princes of the Apocalypse, 5e Elemental Evil

Out of the Abyss, Welcome to the Underdark

Coliseum of Conquest, but it's the Arena (Occasionally)

Playing in:

Coliseum of Conquest as:

Ogguimash the Masher (Retired), Half-Orc Paladin 5/Shadow Sorcerer 4/Fighter 1 (Wins 9/Losses 1, Streak of 9) (Streak of 2 matches without getting hit . . .was lost because a level 2 crit me.).  "MAAASSSSSHHHHHHH!"  *rolls a 2 on Initmidation*

Latrius d'Maranok'Koerme (Retired), Elven Gloom Stalker 4 (Wins 1/Losses 0, Streak of 1).  Don't know why I tried playing a ranger in an arena setting, let alone Gloom Stalker of all things.

Nock Markonus, Shadowward, High Half-Elf Ancients Paladin 6/Shadow Sorcerer 1 (Wins 2/Losses 3, Streak of 0, Downs: 3 (technically)).  Og 2.0.

Quest for the Shunned City as Gerry Saurbreath, Variant Human Devotion Paladin 6/Celestial Warlock 2.  Putting to together a jigsaw puzzle currently.

DragonDenn's Dragonlords as Latrius Markon (d'Maranok'Koerme) the Shadowthorn, Wood Elf Gloom Stalker Ranger 4/Rogue 1.  Kind of a blunt *******, but to everyone equally.

Shipwrecked on Fugue: A Journey of Self-Discovery as Blue, Air Genasi Dreams Druid 3.

>>---Tomb of Annihilation---<< as Melanthios Serpentcrusher, Variant Human Ranger 2.

The Lost Kenku and One Grung Above as Darrik Orcfoe, Dwarf Totem Barbarian 3/Moon Druid 2.  Entirely too many hit points.

Razor's Lost Mine of Phandelver as Murmen Bloodkith, Dwarf Forge Cleric 2.  Curmudgeon.

Killilli's Dragon Heist as Spark, Fire Genasi Artificer 1.  Distrusts even himself.  Partially modeled on Iskaral Pust.

Completed Campaigns:

Rrakkma as Vishnu Re'var, Githzerai Arcane Trickster Rogue 9.  Only 3 party members died, so it's ok.

Retired Characters/Campaigns:

Company of the Dragon - Baldur's Gate (Team 4) as Thurodurk Anklebreaker, Aasimar Conquest Paladin 3/Shadow Sorcerer 1.  Subtlest intimidation tactics this side of completely unsubtle.

A Reign of Maimed Virulence as Tharnik Eversharp, Mountain Dwarf Vengeance Paladin 6.  Has a literal axe to grind with dragonkind.

~ Tyranny of Dragons ~ as Bunko Autumnmourn, Variant Human Monk 1.  Herbalist and medic, but might end up poisoning you.

Aragorn's Tomb of Annihilation as Yesqirelle Lathalas, Elven Grave Cleric 1 of Kelemvor.  Emo elf.

DragonDenn's Arena as Karnys Ruby-Eye (Retired), Dwarf Fighter 1/War Wizard 5.  Grumpy dwarf who's only smart because of a pretty circlet.

Now as Ogguimash the Masher, Half-Orc Vengeance Paladin 5/Shadow Sorcerer 1.  Big Mash.  Stupidly lucky.

Robby's Beast Fighting Fun Times as Thurodurk the Binder, Aasimar Conquest Paladin 3. (Wins 1/Losses 0, Streak of 1)  Og but with a shield and spooky sword things.

Fight the Night (Team Alpha Noobs/War Boyz) as Latrius d'Maranok'Koermae, the Shadowthorn, Elven Gloom Stalker Ranger 1.  Hates his last name as much as you do, and sarcastic enough to confuse even the most hardened YouTube comments section.  Also known as Latrius Markon, or just Lat.

A few others I can't completely recall details of including/didn't put on here originally for no apparent reason: Falmo Silvereyes, Murmen Bloodkith, Amakos, Yesqirelle Lathalas (again), Melanthios Serpentcrusher, Karnys Ruby-Eyes (the first version), and Vortrin Bhenkumbyrznaax.  May they rest in peace.

Dead Campaigns:

Fah'lin, of The Heroes of Harenhal - Revenge is Best Served Cold, I've Fallen Down and I Can't Get Back Up, and Who Let the Vamp Out.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

As the following evening approaches...

Fah'lin struggles to pull his battered body through the chain gate as the enormous cavern collapses behind him, entombing the Ice Giant King along with his remaining forces and the entrance to the gate. "Well..." He manages to grunt with a sigh, "That didn't go as expected."

A crow caws down at the paladin from its perch atop the pommel of Maeran-Cadail's saddle. Sciathan calls a reply, and the two birds begin a brief exchange of coarse notes. Sciathan pulls a small scroll free from the visitors leg, and brings it to Fah'lin as the crow returns to the sky.

Fah'lin reads the note silently... "I... I must return home. Hopefully... Hopefully, the knowledge and strength I've gained on this path will be enough to face... what lies ahead."

He hands Arya Xicohtencatl's token. "If ever any of you need me, send Xi and I will come." With that, he uses his remaining good arm to hoist his body weakly into the saddle, and begins his next adventure.

Jianyu Mendoza - Pit of Vipers.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Hours turn to days (and then well over a year) as Jianyu watches the Stratton Estate. None have come or gone. Some of his party never returned from within. He returns to the Broken Barrel to report to the others, but he finds no one. It seems the party has decided on discretion after all. The members of the Chorus have scattered to the wind.

Jianyu steps into the shadows and disappears.

Dyoken "DK" Nogast, of The Heroes of Kings - Shepherd's Crossing. (Moved to Discord)

Archy Lightheart, of the Cuzkins - The Forgotten Forge.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Archy is pleased to return to normal-ish life, but seeing the potential the use of magic presents, he starts studying the trade. He doesn't have the power his cuzkin have, but there's a spark there he hadn't noticed before.

While he's helping Yrwin in the kitchen one day, it's apparent that this is not Archy's forte. A small fire starts, a tin of valuable spices topples into the flames. Smoke billows from the doors and windows... Once the fire is stopped and the smoke clears, something strange... A beautiful girl? No, Just a shadow? Or A demon? No. It's an owl... Fortuona 'Tuon' Aethem Devi Paendrag has joined the party.

Amaruve Al'Ameth, of The Lost - The Next Leap and The Next Leap: Planebreaker.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Amaruve nods as Deoch speaks, glancing over at the girl and over at the party occasionally. "A great honor..." he replies reluctantly.

The events of this leap have brought peril to himself, but moreso to his friends. Surely they would struggle more to carry on without his aid. In these last days he had thought much of the past. Memories long forgotten had resurfaced. Thinking on the past with the wisdom and knowledge of adulthood had raised new questions. New unanswered questions and an itch to solve them. Something happened that day...

Amaruve takes in the guidance of the mother, and holds it. He thinks of his youth. It had been so long since he had thought of his childhood. "I'll return..." One day the answers will be found, the world's will be set straight.

The power to control their path is finally within their reach. There is little for him at the Tower, if not answers, but here... This will be his home... "One day..." 

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Quote from Adaxter >>

... Amaruve: Your individual experiences were personal. You elected not to share them. ...

 Amaruve tells Burble (the name the Elemental chose) all about his experience during the ride back. He tells him about the bird, the forest, and the bear, and the salamanders, and what he found when he returned.

Dahme'dre d'Lyric - Fiefdoms in a Broken Land.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

The earth rumbles with Dahme'dre's potent unease... It rumbles forcefully, and pictures fall from the walls. Dishes slide on the tables and smash to the ground. 

Is this Dahme'dre's power? Or... Does The Withering persist? Were the rumors false? Did the power remain? Dahme'dre is struck with fear, unable to move. Her hubris has spelled her certain doom. The building bucks sharply as a chasm gapes in the street below.

She turns to face her party. Their time together so brief, yet meaningful. She reaches a hand toward Valen... Erdan... "Save me?" Her voice, tiny, lost in the cacophony of destruction. Though her message came clear in her eyes.

This last night had seemed to stretch. The hours were as months, as the sun crawled over the horizon. Then, in a moment, a rush of air. The chasm rips into the building, and a torrent of unnatural power sucks in clothing, bedding, bags, and debris. An iron kettle falls from the armoire as it teaters and crashes to the ground. Dahme'dre clings to the windowsill, but she's struck by the falling cookware! She loses her grip!

In a moment the winds halt with a satisfied slurp... Dahme'dre is gone. Taken by the Withering to face judgement.

Dahme'dre d'Cannith - Call of the Dragon Below.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Dahme'dre, true to her word, watches the party's back, but the fires do spread. She moves confidently closer attempting to douse the flames with the earth. Her molding weakens the supporting structure... Too late she hears the wood splinter and crack. She rolls aside, but she's pinned beneath the fallen beams. "Siberys' child awakens a cool night, in a danse macabre, as Khyber sends her blood across the world."

The building crumples sending a spray of cinders into the evening sky. Beauty and terror mark the moment. Dahme'dre is gone.

Amaruve - Crafting a World of War.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

An injured wolf runs back into the woods. Amaruve takes the chase. He won't let the beast escape. More appear. Amaruve fights valiantly, fighting the beasts as he can, but too often they flee. Each wolf that escapes returns with more and Amaruve is overwhelmed, returning his body to the cycle of life and death as the forest demands...

Droogan "Fateseeker" - Pit of Bones.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

The dragon doesn't hesitate as the opportunity is presented. With a jerk of it's bonds the link snaps and the dragon is free, but it does not flee. "You would have left me here!" It screeches at Droogan, "But, you won't suffer that fate!" It cries out as it turns and sinks its razor sharp teeth into Droogan's flesh.

In one swift blow Droogan hangs lifeless in the dragon's jaws.

Jianyu Mendoza - Palace of the Vampire Queen.

Quote from BDaddLy >>

Jianyu attempts to pick the lock, and finds the latch turns with relative ease. But with a sudden click the stones beneath his feet give way and he falls silently into the pit. No sound returns from him landing at the bottom, no stone or water. Only silence...

Fah'lin Kowbbercayj - Sunless Citadel Octalogy.
