I might be God’s favorite princess 😳 This is probably the biggest thrifting score of my life… 5 Fizban Treasury of Dragons mystery boxes & 1 Fizban Treasury of Dragons Super Booster ($5.99/each). I walked away with $140 worth of minis for only $36 💀 #ttrpg #dungeonsanddragons #dnd #dndminis

It’s my favorite time of the year because #RenFaire season is back! Opening weekend was a joy, the weather was cool enough to enjoy a delicious baked potato, and I managed to get my main Faire purchases done this first weekend ✨🦋 Can’t wait for this weekend’s Dungeons & Dragons theme!

🧵🪡 Got my feedback from being a GM at GenCon today and with it being my first year at that con & finally running games in-person for Kobold Press, I’m so glad to see the scores I did 🥹 Pretty sure these were from my players in the last game I ran where they — #GenCon #GameMaster

Discord message with the following text:

“How would you rate your Game Master on a scale of 1-10?”
4 answers of 10

So my players have decided to say that I’m being a “pizza mouse” whenever I am “eating up” a roleplay moment as a GM. This is all because I ate a piece of pizza in the most perfect triangle shape with 2 hands as I was listening to a roleplaying moment between them all 💀 #Daggerheart #Gamemaster

That thread stemmed from a message I sent my DM (Stephen) this morning ✨ Even though I told my him last night, after our final session of our campaign, I took time to REALLY write him a full message letting him how I felt - you don’t have to write as much as me, any kudos will do 💖 #TTRPG #DnD

Message from the OP to their D&D Dungeon Master, which reads:
“I just have to let you know personally, even though I talk about it quite frequently online, that I’m so proud of you for taking over the campaign and quite thankful that you did.
We got to see these characters out to the end, instead of them meeting a half-life that so many campaigns meet.
Having the opportunity to fully play through a character to level 20, instead of implied, is a first for me & to bring us all there should be celebrated.

While I thought I was going to cry at the final session, which I started to get a smidge weepy after Sam’s epilogue, I think it’s finally hitting me today.
I’m excited to see what you cook up for those one/two-shots where we can “live” a little in that 20th level instead of immediately retiring our characters.”

Message by the OP to their Dungeon Master that reads (continued):
“We talked about the feeling of imposter syndrome a couple sessions back and even though I’ve been GMing for a couple years now (coming up on 3 this summer), I still feel it & I know you’ll still feel it too - but that’s why I think it’s so important to tell anyone who runs games that I’m a part of that they have done an amazing job when I truly mean it. You deserve to know how amazing you’ve done with what you were given and I know that you’re going to continue to be an amazing GM, not just for our group, but for your game with your sister & anything other game you decide to run.”

The Dungeon Master, Stephen responding to the message which reads:
“Damn, this makes me sooo happy, thank you. I’m so grateful everyone gave me the chance to DM and I promise to make the next campaign even better.”

Yesterday morning’s #MTGArena game still has me 😳 83 life to 10 life with a clutch rabbit board wipe due to the ETB trigger of Harvester of Misery. Honestly thought I was gonna lose with the opponent’s board being 30-ish 1/1 & 2/2 creatures. You never know how a game is gonna go. #MTGA #MTG

Screenshot of the Magic: The Gathering Arena app showing OP’s full board state after casting the card Harvester of Misery, which gives all creatures -2/-2 upon ETB. This effectively wipes the opponent’s board even though they have 83 life points to OPs 10.
