The DM was giving @calamitypunk.bsky.social a dire warning that because he'd gotten a Nat20 on his previous roll, she was lowering the DC for the last check from a 30 to a 27. As she was going through the warning, he got nervous and did the roll mid-sentence. He got the fucking 30. #Aurendor #DnD

Two separate resurrection attempts for a beloved character failed. I use Matt Mercer's resurrection rules, and both the revivify and resurrection ritual got natural 1s. The dice have been BRUTAL to my players this campaign.

Question for the #ttrpg folks. I'm looking for great examples of truly system-neutral titles. What are your faves? Self-promo is not only okay but very fucking encouraged, assuming that it fits the bill. (Boosts to expand reach appreciated. 💜)

#SelfPromoSaturday #TTRPG hi folks! I've been working on a "Lived In" fantasy game called Last Rites, a game where you died, but that doesn't seem to be slowing you down. I'm currently up to 25 pages for the Player and Narrator, and I'm pretty dang ol happy with it 🥰
The front cover for the TTRPG Last Rites. It features a skeleton inspecting a sword in front of a statue.A "birds eye view" of the 25 pages in the TTRPG.An example of the stronger monsters in Last Rites. The Lindwyrm is like a Dragon and a Symbiote from Marvel, making an ever consuming creature.The basic rules for your character. You make safe checks by rolling 2d10 + a Stat versus a number (usually a defense). You can also make risky checks by rolling a 1d20 where you might critically succeed or fail. Your character is based around when you died.
