d&d tonight; possibly the campaign finale.

we've been at this one for something like 2 years, we're level 17, it is Time

i'm prepping a short-run mini-campaign hopefully, if i can finish, to run for a few weeks after before someone takes up the real dm mantle and starts the next one

a cosmic horror thing with vibes similar to Annihilation — that's the goal anyway

Dude I bet you are a bangin' DM. That's all.

honestly I've only done it once and it was for a real shitposty little oneshot so I do not know, but I appreciate the vote of confidence lmao

I don't know what the TTRPG equivalent of "passenger princess" is but that's me, rofl

lmfaoooo

a... table tiara?

dice duchess?

Oh shit those are cute I'll take 'em.

Still can't believe y'all fucks argued so long about how to attack a monster we didn't even need to interact with at all that you made my little guy yell and fuck everything up.

honestly that's the true d&d experience

90% is the party debating on how to outsmart a fight and 10% is actually playing

God, mood.

sandor → sansa

finally implementing the agreed upon strategy after 2 hours only to fail the roll immediately

omg annihilation themed short campaign sounds sick as hell

discontinued: lmfao every single fucking time

disarmingly: I HOPE SO i have a few neat ideas about corruption mechanics... i let them know it's gonna be a big inter-party conflict story...

i also have a few neat ideas for when they die.......

sandor → bigby u know... strangely... despite getting into a raging fistfight within the first 2 minutes i feel like they're getting along fairly well

i kind of wish i had someone to bounce a few of these campaign mechanics and ideas off of that wasn't also going to be a player in the campaign. i don't wanna spoil them but i also am not entirely sure if some of these ideas are balanced.

i could have picked a pre-written module and done it in the 5e system for my first real attempt but no i gotta go be fuckin extra

I am probably not the best person to give really thoughtful feedback, given my whole-ass D&D experience is three-ish~ campaigns and like six one-shots but I am deadly curious about it all anyway.

honestly i may ramble incoherently at you later and shove six documents into your eyeballs over screenshare if you're still interested just so i can be like

does any of this even..... make 1 sense

to anyone outside of my own head

o hell yeah the sing ooc event post went up

stream of consciousness thoughts while I read the post:
-oh boy can't wait for him to see electricity
-you will find yourself compelled to speak of them thank u for that, mod
-should i give him the toy gregor burned his face off for, that would be fun

-ya boi probably gonna be hovering around Sansa's general vicinity in a lowkey-not lowkey way when these attacks start happening. but like, without talking about it or acknowledging it
-fuck yeah let's go, a battle immediately, its sword time baybee swords don't need bullets, u bet ur ass he'll take a life

i do want someone to show him guns and how to use them eventually, and he'll want to learn all about them, but he's also gonna be like 'this is a pussy weapon for lil bitch babies' because of who he is as a person.

o shit alternatively what if the item i request for him is Arya's sword Needle?

that could be... a feeling

he'd wind up giving it to jon or sansa

mmmmmm

(also, the Too Deep thoughts I have about that shit.)

event plotting

do they do big like. everything-in-one-place event logs here or is it an everyone makes their own post for the event situation?

me, having only been in one single game basically for the last 3 years, sweating over new processes

paingravy: There will be an event log posted on the 10th!

But people are free to make their own logs if they like!

I always aim to get the event log posted at midnight on the 10th, which is essentially the evening of the 9th for folks in the states.

Awesome!! Thank you

Oh boy abraxas had a prelude go up, too

Definitely gonna do something with mister creepypasta himself (it works on two levels) and the haunted dolls

Dean in the wax museum would be comedy

He's going to want to salt and burn literally everything

Why tf does everyone in every universe screw with ouija boards and then surprise Pikachu when they get haunted

Do you want ghosts? Bc this is how you get ghosts

omg haunted wax museum lmao....

dean → reva

dean → julia something something family don't end in blood

i do like this thread of dean and julia both losing their brothers and coming together about it

but i also just love julia wicker as a character and i have been proven right that dean and julia have great friend chemistry so good job me

(on my list of hypothetical goals one day in a game after abraxas: a dean/julia ship, somewhere, somewhen.)

circumstances are not quite right for either of them in abraxas for that 2 really work, but. the dream is solid.

altho i say that shortly after saying i planned to retire him for a while after abraxas so the dream will probably stay a dream, but it's a nice one

I love that you're considering the toy he was burned over. I'm contemplating a gift from Daisy's mom that she received shortly before watching her mom commit murder (and the day before her mom attempted the same on her). Fun times in Sing!!

handshake emoji for the trauma

we love 2 see it

shut the entire hell your mouth

...nope. no, thank you.

wellll the finale didn't quite wrap so one more week of d&d actually lmao

dean → reva it's been a while since i had a good old fashioned patented dean winchester emotional monologue

sorry 2 the mods

i really am hype for Best Of Spn groupwatch tomorrow night (...tonight, technically) bc i could really use the refresh

it's been an age since i did any canon review eps and i would like to be slightly less lackluster with his tags

i just know that the ones i've been putting out (aside from that one) have probably felt lacking in depth or feeling to the folks i've been tagging, or at least i'm not meeting my own standards

so a little bit of mainline spn direct injection of episodes that make u give a shit will be real helpful

it also occurs to me that i was talking about him finding reva hot and then after 2 seconds of deeper consideration at her icon, she bearing some very... distinct traits

note to self for tomorrow 2 figure out what jay and heather want 2 do for threeway thread. possibly quest? if not, then maybe just some absurd haunted doll spooky halloween shenaniganery

i didn't want 2 bother them but unfortunately there is also no world where he doesn't try to do basic Spn Ghost Stuff about it

things he would try approx. six and a half minutes after hearing the rumors

before I go to bed: Lucifer's questing with Istredd and I do not see him going through this song and dance more than once lmfao

Okay thank you lol

We can do some tales-esque non quest haunted shenanigans instead unless yall come up with something better

I don't even go here and I'm popcorning at Dean being predictable in his reactions to certain spooky things.

Lmao he truly just be one type of way
