#DnD advice: Creative problem solving is never truly appreciated. You'd think my party would thank me for casting a spell that blinded them before we faced a Medusa.

#DnD advice: Creating likable NPCs in your campaigns is a fool's errand - your players will betray a friendly NPC at any opportunity, and try to befriend the rabid gremlin EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Formal affordances are the elements that pull a player toward certain actions, they “cry out” for the player to take those actions. Material affordances are the actions a system actually allows the player to take. Agency occurs when the two are in balance. (Mateas 2001)

I resent how media always shows d&d being played with battle mats, miniatures and dice. Instead, my group uses a blender, tequila and triple sec hahaha. Anyways, no mr officer, I won't be taking that breathalyzer so you might have to try and arrest me

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

My #pixelart entry for PSICOZINE, an italian fanzine! 124x180px, 22 colors I originally meant to animate it, but I am pc-less atm. Bronzong is one of my faves - I love bronzes from the Yayoi period in general. Recently, I also developed a huge love for the bronze art of Sangxingdui, Guanghan.
A pixel art of the pokemon Bronzong and Bronzor. The steel/psychic pokemon is embedded in an intricate frame wall, perfectly shaped around him. Two Bronzor are located at its sides. The dark temple is lit by a bright flame contained in a horned urn right below Bronzong. This round brazier is shaped like the headpiece of the legendary pokemon Ting-Lu. The bright flame causes all sorts of reflections and color diffractions: from the warm light to the characteristic shades of oxidated bronze, with purple and cold reflections as well.

Upon further inspection, the rich frame carvings reveal many historiated scenes: below bronzong there's a lunette holds stylized figures of Dialga, Palkia and Giratina. Above the two Bronzor, embedded in the frame, the silhouettes of Uxie, Azelf and Mesprit. On the higher part of the structure, right above Bronzong, the effigy of Arceus, lit by a cold light.

Bad DND Advice

Tricking your players with a mimic is only funny once!

Make the most of it – save it for a few weeks after the campaign concludes.

#DnD advice: Ideally, your party will consist of a grim front line warrior, a wisecracking caster of some kind, a rogue or monk who hasn't figured out their class features, and an overpowered weirdo who has no reason to adventure with the group.
