I'm told panic is a free action. Or was that crying. Probably both.

That is the best wedding invite ever. Congrats!

 
 

We were forced online for this session and during the classic "Wait, I can't move my token" "Here, let me sort this out for you" moment, I realized I had control of... a torch.

The goblin was killed. With great prejudice.

One of my friends started doing a thing where he adds his damage together. When it's as high as his hit point total, then he's down. I am trying it out. So I just needed to math the subtraction. Not a lot of math but shrug.

 

Good news, it was only Power Word Pain so. That was nice.

My evil plan (ttrpg.network)
 

All these people make references to pop stuff with their characters, exasperating their DM. Not good enough. My plan is to make the DM accidentally make a pop culture reference.

Diabolical. I'm thrilled by the idea of it happening to someone else.

I built a one-shot around this idea on a heavily-modded Tiny D6 system, letting people choose which of the 4 they wanted to be with variants like wealthy or scientific Victorian, captain or gunner pirate, disgraced or retired Samurai, cattle driver or 49'er, and so forth. I set it in San Francisco to get some good conflux of cultures.

Of my 4 players, 3 of them chose to be rich Victorians. facepalm

 

For those wondering, we didn't die mostly due to a well-placed Disintegrate. My "stick an immovable rod in its innards" was disappointingly low damage.

For those wondering otherwise, our best plan involved turning it into a regular worm, using an immovable rod with a hole drilled through the length of the staff, clicking the rod, then dispelling polymorph.

To my credit, the reason I was hiding was to find out if some guys we'd joined while traveling were sus.

They were sus. Which we found out when they ambushed us at night.

Our player who likes doing this to the DM: "So they're giving us horses? What are the horses' names?" Our DM: "....no. You choose."

Speaking as a player (most of the time) I love making things worse for my poor character. And I send my evilest ideas to my DM. Who then makes them heartachingly worse. It's great.

I made an adventure for this based on the Tiny D6 Pirates system. They were in 1820s or so San Francisco so we've got robber barons, Emperor Norton, and all sorts of weird stuff thrown in. You can also have fun with cholera epidemics and floods and gold rushes.

Lower level and a high-level NPC bard gave the inspiration. Unsure whether he gave it to the NPC I was up against; if so, the guy flubbed that roll too.

We did manage to steal it and that is eventually the plan. Provided we can throw it without touching it.

Like someone with a deep US Southern accent saying geese. Gee-uhs.

At least one of these does look like it's 3d. I hope they did drop at least one die in here amongst the loot.
