Tf is with that pretentious-ass conclusion?

You probably should have thought about your schedule before trying to schedule a whole new campaign.

You probably would not be surprised how many people buy every single book that comes out. I happen to be one of them. Only stopped recently, and after the OGL scandal last year I don’t think I will ever do that again.

Back when I played in AL, the appeal was less about the content and more about the ability to show up somewhere with a Char sheet and know there will be a table to play at.

Thank you. This was very thorough, and very helpful.

@Toes
Not what I’m asking. I’m asking for lore ideas, like why would the King have outlawed Orcs and put a Bounty on their heads.

But is is common for flying characters to be banned. Not sure why. Everybody can get a bow or crossbow, and there’s no cover up there.

@LibertyLizard
I’m talking about in-world legality. #MCDM has lore about how dragonborn are created being that were crafted during the reign of Good King Omin, so they are a symbol of that better age. As such, the despotic Lord Ajax has placed a bounty for dragonborn heads.

I don’t really have anything comparable in my world, though? There is a bad guy evilling in a holding pattern over the western horizon, but I have other lore about his machinations.

@cjoll4
As in being an orc is against the law of the kingdom their character are in. #MCDM has dragonborn as being created by Good King Omin, who was deposed by the evil Lord Ajax. Ajax then placed a large Bounty on the head of every dragonborn.

> reddit is a good place

Are you sure about that?

@onlinepersona @thegiddystitcher that’s actually what I am doing. I found I can just follow all these peertube users from Mastodon, so that’s what I do

It’s really not as busted as it sounds, especially since this is likely a dragon with 1d8 hit points and a 15 in its highest stat

Personally, I think the best way to nerf a Dragon PC is strict timekeeping. Each year they get slightly bigger, each week their claws grow just enough to keep them from permanently silvering their claws, etc

I’m thinking about having my pantheon be about that, sort of how in the #Silmarillon the original sin was “a talented prick made the coolest thing, but decided no one else deserved to work with them and got obsessed with protecting their intellectual property”.

Melkor got pissed that he had to compromise his vision with the other Valar when making Arda, Feanor got waay too proud of his Silmarils, Sauron got litigious about his ring-lore IP, and so on. It’s a really good message for a #ttrpg

But I do agree that after I have players I should implement what they like. A mistake I made last time is that I spent a year and a half going wild with my worldbuilding, filling in every single nook and cranny that normally the players would co-create with me.

🤷‍♂️I only have like three people I could currently recruit, since I only have 2 irl friends plus my fiancée. Considering that in my experience about a quarter of the people I recruit don’t show up regularly and another quarter stop coming after a bit, I would prefer to recruit another 6-8 people so I can have six players.

Basically, I’m doing market research. I want my game to be minimally aggravating for my players. Right now I’m specifically focusing on one detail that I dont really get.

You could have been helpful and told me what images were there

You’d be surprised how many people don’t ever think about what they like, and because they don’t do self-reflection they can’t tell me what they like. It’s really common in nerds for some reason.
