    posted a message on Replacement of aberrand mind sorcer spells

    Yeah it's been way too long waiting for a fix on this. I've played an entire campaign's worth with an aberrant mind sorcerer on Discord, and it was a pain. Fun class, fun character, terrible experience trying to cast psionic spells.

    Yeah, the "apology" is most definitely not an apology 🫤

    I love the D&D developers, and I truly believe that the majority of WotC employees are community-oriented. But this statement, whoever wrote it, is just really a bad look. 

    Hoping that the OGL rewrite will be true to the stated intentions. But until it is, I've sadly cancelled my DDB subscription that I had kept active all the way since 2017.

    IMO it's a red herring.

    I fully support the desire to censor hateful or discriminatory material–I make the same efforts in my own company's publishing. But all WotC would need to do is include a clause specifically prohibiting such objectionable content, and/or specifying their right to revoke the license in such cases. There is a simple and efficient way to do that, and the OGL 1.1 verbiage was like using a wrecking ball to hammer a nail in, in that respect.

    Quote from Shadaux >>

    Any news on being able to get past perks? I read the original post describing that it may come in the future, just wondering if there has been any discussion on that topic?

     Here's the quote from the OP: 

    You won't receive perks from previous months when you weren't subscribed.

    We're not going to say that there will never be a way to access them in the future, but for now, if you're not subscribed and miss out on the subscriber perks for a specific month, they're gone.

    What are the October perks? I tried clicking the link, but all it does is take me to the subscription marketplace (even though I'm already subscribed!)

    The prince is cowed. He has witnessed the power you wield, and isn't about to challenge you without backup.

    Behind you, Clarion and her two riders clearly have the upper hand in the sky battle. You are free and clear, if you indeed wish to retreat to a safer location. 

    Where will you take the prince?

    The ice from Marav's breath hangs in the air, obscuring your view of the enemies as you make your escape. 

    The giant prince snivels, but asks more forcefully this time, in heavily accented Common, "Whut arre you all going to du tu me??" Then in jotun, he finishes, "Tell me now! I demand it!"

    Looking over the side of the ship, Ink can see a giant that matches Zaltember's description. A spiked iron crown, and a huge hammer. He is striding away from the open door at the base of the cliff, and is bathed in the bright orange glow from the firelight inside of the fortress. 

    "What...what are you going to do to me?" Zaltember asks in giant.

    The boy replies, in giant, "He has a big beard! And an iron crown. And a big hammer. And lots of gold!"

    Zaltember (the fire giant youth) takes Marav's breath like a punch in the gut, and drops to his hands and knees. He pleads, in giant, "OWWW! No more! Please. My father will pay you; just don't hurt me!"

    As Aya struggles to reign in the great flaming bird, Marav-the-dragon and the giant prince plummet towards the ship. Matrix struggles to regain control of the airship.

    Marav, tangled up with the prince, tries to angle their descent towards the airship. At the last second, Ink fires off his levitate spell, catching the prince momentarily. But the spell holds only for a second, as Marav's weight (combined with the giant prince's weight) overpowers Ink's concentration, and causes the two large figures to fall in a heap on the deck of the ship. 

    The airship rocks with the force, bucking front to back—and Matrix is flung off the stern of the ship! His form falls into the darkness of the valley below before anyone can react. 

    But there is barely time to contemplate this, as the flame-bearded fire giant, flying down towards you, winds up and launches a blossoming fireball from over 100 feet away. 


    The fire giant sorcerer laughs like a crazy person. But then—suddenly—the fireball is reversed, reduced back to a mote, and extinguished!


     

    From out of the shadows below, a silver streak zooms upwards past the airship, and a triumphant roar sounds from this silver creature. A massive cone of icy shards sprays forth at the flying giant sorcerer, and silhouetted against the flames you can make out the form of the mighty silver dragon, Clarion. 
     
    On Clarion's back is none other than Rip Dangerfield, your old halfling friend; and Matrix himself. Rip, waving his rapier, hurls verbal curses at the giant sorcerer, and Matrix' dual guns retort in succession, punctuating the halfling bard's mockery. The trio has given you an opening! 
     

    Take a moment to describe how you regain control of the airship and deal with this fire giant "prince." Matrix, Rip, and Clarion are more than a match for this flaming giant sorcerer. 
     
    Remember, your real target, Duke Zalto, remains somewhere below, in or near the fire giants' stronghold.

    Eiren stops and turns on his heels. "Almost forgot.  Before we do that, might we try that thing with the black gate? I would like to try applying more than one key to the black gate, to see what happens."

    (Oh right, Golem Laboratories)

    Eiren suggests that we continue exploring the golem laboratories. If the map is correct, the stone golem quarries are just through the next corridor (1). "Velmine, let's keep Clay close, shall we?"

    (I forget where we are at—do we have a black key that works for this area yet?)

    "Well, that was...random. But helpful," says Eiren. "I'm glad we were able to free the angelic being...no one deserves to be imprisoned like that." 

    Eiren feels rejuvenated and ready to continue!
