Are you playing Holographic Vic Fontaine?

If you're playing D&D 5e, no perception check, no matter how high, will let you notice an object is actually a mimic.

False Appearance (Object Form Only). While the mimic remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary object.

We've got a British one, which I think explains a lot

Their planet didn't look like it had much for seasons. Or even environments lol

It can be if you're not a coward!

Depends, is the Wizard affected by Mage Armor? Because then you might have a case

My D&D character is just like me with extra trauma. I'm not sure that's worth the magic lol

I loved 4e combat too. EOT and Scene abilities make combat much more fun and dynamic IMO

It definitely can get bogged down in complexity, but I think it's usually worth it, and over time, you and your players can get used to it, and start picking up the pace.

Pokemon Tabletop United basically uses the same system, and it also has to contend with multiple Pokemon characters per Player character. The whole group needs to be working together to keep things moving. It's definqtely a challenge for new players

It's not just the GM's responsibility. All the players at the table should be having those discussions throughout play

You don't even need the dice! I was definitely gambling last session when I attuned to a prosthetic eye filled with the trapped souls of everyone that's ever used it. It gives me 60 feet of Truesight though!

Got a Scroll of Prestidigitation as a joke item, but I saved it, and eventually found a use for it, allowing my character to avoid the use of a public bathhouse, which was great for him due to personal issues.

The scroll became a running joke, everyone would always laugh about, "Oh, if we only had a Scroll of Prestidigitation!" whenever we fall into a sewer or something. So when he got his next cantrip, at level up, there was really only one choice

 

This is for an upcoming session this Saturday. I've never been the kind of person that's into drawing, but I'm GMing my own PTU campaign, and I hated making maps online lol

I've been practicing for about a week now, and I'm pretty happy with this little map.

The setting is a small cave, complete with giant mushrooms, crystals, and a pond, which served as the improvised "break room," for a couple of miners my players found the skeletons of at the end of the last session.
