I have a question. I'm designing a campaign around an Angel that was assigned a task but made a different decision. An example the Angel is part of a group sent to retrieve an artifact with a group of adventurers however the situation escalates with the arrival of a fallen angel. Fighting begins and the Fallen Angel escapes with the artifact instead of pursuing the good Angel saves the adventurers. The Angel's God feels it should've sacrificed the adventurers and completed the mission, because it didn't the God sends it to the Prime Material until it finds redemption. I don't want the Angel to be fallen but I do want it to have a grudge.... becoming the reluctant hero...after all it doesn't think it did anything wrong. Is this a feasible scenario?

"will you survive the unstoppable hoard" No its unstoppable. Not watching the vid just answering the thumbnail

Excellent Video - Running a high-level campaign and need some angels in it.

And the best part about dnd is that there are many types of undead and not just the corporeal rotting walkers! 😊.

Thanks for this video, really helped me spice up my campaign

out of interest, is it the software that cant deal with it or your PC? I was just about to buy wondershare but the maps id want to make would be large and detailed lol so this might be a deal breaker

I was thinking about using this for a one shot. I did a zombie thing a while ago running Pathfinder. But for this have the players make 2 characters. One would be a higher level and the other lower level. They select one of the characters. (The second character lived at the island and is NPC until the players character dies. Then they control that character). The characters land on an island that has been attacked. With a few zombies hidden in the recked village. Players are first trying to figure out what is going on. Then they eventually run into an NPC, one of their created characters. The NPC is terrified and warns the party. Then leaves and hides. As the horde slowly draws near and different zombies slowly approach village.

Love your videos

any chance on getting the Scotland area done :D

Imagine sleeping as an elf

In my group's homebrew, the Bagman is a cryptid. Nobody has ever actually killed one or obtained solid proof of its existence, but there are tales of people waking up after having fallen asleep on watch to see an elongated, bony figure slipping into their bag of holding, carrying a freshly killed squirrel or rabbit, a handful of berries, or a bundle of edible roots. And when noticed, it just turns towards you and silently holds a spindly finger to its thin lips.

😁🐕🍊🍍

Definitely using these stats for a campaign I’m planning! Thank you sir!!

So, yeah, in my campaign, my Artaficer, naturally was drawn to them and was making a small village by a volcano in the material plains, he found one who was willing to help teach him crafting, as they explored the donguen under the volcano for ore and gems. My other idea is that maybe his friend being a powerful Azer could double as a warlock Patron in another campaign, the Azer would be the same from my last campaign, but was a family friend of my new character great grandfather.

wonder if there is a brush like that for clip studio cuz it looks really nice and intuitive.

im def thinking about A horde campaign

a very good approach in illustrating the dimensions through their contrast. you look beautiful

Love this

it d be disgustingly fun if launcher can throw other zombies :D

My angels belong to a picticular God. Yes there are different types of angels with different types of duties. The gradian angels: can only that wisper in someones ear saying "don't do that it's a bad idea" or "No what are you thinking that will be evil and wrong" but can't interact directly or physically help, only indirectly. One of theos angels was around when their god did something very bad. And she didn't want to be apart of it and tried to help the mortals for this she was punished the other angels ripped out her wings and she fell. But did she turn evil? No she didn't She continued to help people in spite of her god. She met some powerful friends and one of them that was part Demon gave her back her wings One was white the other was black.

Is anything really balanced? No. Exhibit A: R.A.W. challenge rating. Don't hang up on balance. Even if you do, your party is gonna run a cokelok and three rp heavy self inserts that are like toddlers in combat. You're just gonna have to adjust on the fly as you go. If you accidentally kill people, just have a way for them to get better that is accessible to them

I have been considering a bagman arc in my campaign, with "bag space" as a domain of dread. I think I will use the big boy you have homebrewed here, with a few nips and tucks (my party isn't gonna be lv 20 for this). All of these are very good, though. Now, I just have to get my party a bag of holding sufficiently ahead of the beginning, so it's not the day after they get one that they're all kidnapped 🤣

Click Bait! I though this was about being a femboy pimp.

There's nothing I love more than high Athletics monsters literally just bringing a PC to another part of the dungeon and physically throwing them into a trap

You alluded to it, but effects don't have to be at the trigger point. Given a high magic use in a world, and a dislike for magic users that stay in the back of a party, a trap trigger at the front may cause an effect 10' to the rear. Nothing quite like the Tank stepping on a plate and the cleric and MU at the rear of the party getting zapped. You can also use double triggers. Party hits the trip on the way up a hall, then hits a second trip on the way back and bang! This is a way to create a safe route for the trappers to avoid hitting both triggers.

Oh! So this is not about DND trap houses

You say it’s for 5e, but this is very useful for all editions-especially OSR games! Diolch!

Nice video gets a new sub

Have animated armor actually be a colony of molluscs using the armor segments like shells and forming one body by all holding onto one another with pseudopods. As a bonus, you can eat them. Grilled in the shell, steamed, its your choice.

would love to try a one-shot with this one

There’s a Hunter spookin’ around out there!

For a naval campaign I made a troll that fed mostly on hagfish, so their skin was really slimy. This counteracted fire, acid and grapple.

I am using it on my next session as a companion of an orog leading a pack of orcs. I am gonna give my guys a tough time in a forest battle XD

I love your videos

This video has good insigths. Here's some non-canonical advice for new GMs: - If you have a problem and don't know what to do, talk to your players directly, not the internet. If you think Reddit knows better than your friends, go ask a random hobo for advice and you may actually get more sensible answers. - If you don't want to get your precious NPCs riddiculed, insulted, etc. don't play them as if they know there's an omnipotent god watching over them at all times and screw around, respect goes both ways. - If you don't want an enemy NPC killed too early (like a BBEG), don't introduce them to the players too early - think "They're standing right before the mad mage, he's as good as dead now" not "Oh god I didn't account for the mad mage to die here, how do I GM-bullshit my way out of it?" - If you think the combat is too easy, just add more enemies in the next one. Don't tweak the statblocks, you don't know what you're doing. - Don't run full casters - if you have to run casters, do only casters with spells you'll instnctively understand what to do with in combat. Players have their sheets for weeks/months and still sometimes need to think for a moment, there's no way for you to learn an equivalent before the session and utilize it properly. - Do experiment with terrain, the earlier the better. - If you want to force outcomes, don't GM. Might sound overly harsh, but I've played with good and bad GMs. The good ones would talk with their players and let go of their precious stuff when necessary. The bad ones would follow the Reddit rules to a T and wonder, why their players are gone. Good luck!

But it's a rule on the internet that every D&D question has to be uselessly answered with "Ask your DM" 😂 I joke, but this is the most irritating thing to read when you're either planning to Dungeon Masturbate (as it were) or you are currently without a group trying to learn the rules.

We have a D&D wiki homebrew race in our D&D campaign. I sat down with the player, and asked them to find the most ridiculous ways to exploit that race/class combo, and then we balanced it together. Works well, so far.

Q1. Is <Insert noun here> Balanced? What is Balance? More easy to ask, "Is this right for my game?". Q2. How do I challenge players (combat)? Action economy (many enemies), undying enemies (puzzle mechanic revives them), More HP/Armor on enemies, Magic~, many options. Q3. Is it ok for me to play my own game? YES BUT ... your character gets no special treatment period, they only get to speak when making suggestions or breaking a tie if the party split on a choice. Q4. How do I let my bad guy talk to the party without combat? Magic~ but if you want them there have their minions/full force there much like Cyanwraith can ask the party for a challenger because he has hostages and a small army backing him up. Q5. How do I force "Outcome" on party? You do not. The bad Guy gets immortality but that doesn't mean the party loses/dies, now they have to figure out how to beat this stronger bad guy. Tiamat gets summoned, the game isn't over just have to figure out how to beat her.

My players are only level 3 and already two of them have a fucking AC of 23 and 22. I kind of hate how powerful characters get in 5e. I'm not sure how to counter this because they can't be hit by any normal enemies ..

can you timestamp the questions pls thanks!

I made a homebrewed fey sorc subclass that people seem to like, its focus is primarily on positioning through misty step, and social manipulation, with summons playing a minor role (capstone feature is Summon Fey 3x/long rest without concentration or material, duration lowered to 1 minute, reflecting the Fey Wanderer feature at 11th, but it still takes the spell slot), rather than damage increases. Heavily uses bonus action so that stacking features together is difficult

If you're a player considering homebrew or other non-standard options, talk to your DM first. I often guide players away from homebrew and third-party resources (sadly, it's often just homebrew with flashy packaging and a price tag). Because I simply am too busy as a DM already trying to get a game off the ground and keep it going. I don't have time to review and vet every player's pick-n-mix homebrew options to ensure they're not broken by being too powerful or not powerful enough. However, I can often help players find a way to reskin or interpret something that already exists within the game's first-party, play-tested, published materials that will get them what they want. And I don't have to do extra homework to ensure all the PCs are appropriate.

On Homebrew Balancing: I want to note that not even rules as written are fully and thouroughly play tested. There are plenty of books in various RPGs I fully banned. Usually later books, where the authors either felt the need to up the power level to stay interesting/relevant or utilised ideas they didn't originally use for a good reason. ---> Basically, limiting the resources is a good idea to make your life easy as a DM and also make clear where the setting is going. On GM Characters: They can be a really good thing depending on how you utilise them and it has nothing to do with the issue of using a player sheet or stat block. (There even is no difference in many games.) Especially small or inexperienced groups profit from NPCs travelling with them. And it is nice if they are actually fleshed out. What I would NEVER do is assuming control over a player character. This is a big nono for me as both player and GM. It takes away agency. Otherwise solid advice. Wish people would read watch this time of FAQ before dropping the same question in 10 different threads a day.^^

I love the idea of stage 3, awesome play on some classic horror tropes!

That are some great ideas i will implement at my table thank you for letting me experience this ❤️

I love this

Thanks for this! Also, I appreciate the RPG firing footage from Fallout while discussing what an RPG is

I started campaign with two player and druid in shark form and a rogue commanding a sailors vessel with multiple mounted harpoon cannons and they were hunting a unknown sea beast it's was a draken (draconic kraken or a kraken with dragon scales wings and head) they obliterated this evil beast using a harpoon to the breath sack then fire breath to the neck from the druid dragonborn
