Recently, my character in a Dungeons & Dragons game had committed a terrorism. I wasn't playing about the time. I decided that I was going to play somebody else. But things changed and I wanted my old bird boy back, so I got him back. But due to his committing a terrorism, the rest of the party does have a bit of an issue with trust against him. That being said, that's just role play and for fun. In any time of crisis, there is no hesitation that, Nevermore would have their back. We talk about it, we play with it, but it's never an actual obstacle. And I think that a lot of people don't understand how you can make that happen.

That is the second time I have heard of Warehouse 13 in the past week.

I have been rewatching Eureka because it is one of my favorite shows, and a show I loved I think before Star Trek. What I never knew was that Warehouse 13 was a show that had crossover and existed. Good friend of mine talked about it the other day, so I downloaded it, and when I am done Eureka, I am going to start watching Warehouse 13.

You have no idea.

Considering the month, that first line can change the entire meaning of this post.

Usually it is one of two things. Either the person is just a toxic asshole who wants to fuck over everyone, which is not that rare or they think of themselves as a player as well a bit too much. While the Dungeon Master is a part of the game and a player, sometimes the line can get a bit blurred where it seems like the Dungeon Master is playing against you to win. Does not mean that they're a bad dungeon master. Sometimes mistakes just happen or people get swept up, or other things they're going on. Soft reminders like saying that you enjoy all playing the game together or other such language that makes it seem cooperative helps to extinguish this behavior from a dungeon master. Using language like you're beating the dungeon master, even if it's in a joking way, can instill that behavior in the dungeon master themselves.

I just thought of the most evil shit you could do with this.

They buy the bag and it comes preloaded with a couple lil crocheted trinkets that are cutesy and like grandma made it for adventurers. A lil mealkit, a ration pack, a lil sword and shield but also a doll. As they slowly start to realize what the bag does they remember the doll and start freaking out about what if it was a person who went in there to hide and got turned and we gotta fix 'em! Ends up being a whole quest line to unfuck the bag, the bag items and specifically this doll. At the very end they undo the doll and it turns into a wooden doll. Then when laughter/disappointment just getting to the right point, have the doll talk. Get the joke of it being a doll and they get the expectation they wanted of it being a living being they saved.

Immortal Clowns of Jest. Zero XP and their death only fuels development of further abilities

I can't see any of these working as intended. Clowns don't subscribe to reality

Spawn them as a distraction!

Some of them cause a big distraction that accidentally points directly towards those you don't want to be seen.

Use them to hide!

One of them will look giant and big to hide you while the others honk and gesture/point behind, clearly showing where you are.

Build yourself a mountain of clowns to scale any wall!

Crabs in a bucket. None will let you climb. You must stay to hear their jokes...

Never starve again with their endless supply of pies!

Shaving cream pies. Ain't nobody got time to bake 30 coconut creams

Use their weight to bring down any air-/ship

They all blow up helium balloons to help it float. Unless you want it to float in which case their balloons turn into bowling balls at the last second with a big shrug.

Air drop them on their enemies!

See balloons

Just crush your entire party by spawning hundreds of them in a closed room!

Clown car logic. You're all "crushed" but it's just extremely difficult terrain.

I've run two 5e oneshots with people from Lemmy in the past month lol planning another. One of those players is planning one actually and I gotta find someone who'd be willing to join

I didn't even realize they had started Campaign 4. I sort of gave up on Critical Role partway through Campaign 3. Things started to drift from feeling like friends playing a game and having fun to friends making a production, at least for me personally. How is it?

I'm sorry but that sounds so in fucking line with a minotaur... that's not crap. That's fucking awesome.

Wait does Lemmy have a version of Shitty Watercolor but instead its Awesome Pastel or something?
