Roleplay heavy d&d campaigns hate him: local DM destroys his whole party with this one simple trick

MY FIRST ANIMATIC HELL YEAH

A scene from her time on the Throne where she confronted the local high priest that had put a ban on non-faithful from stepping onto the island.

She tried to take it outside.

The “Necromancy is evil“ we see in most fantasy worlds stems from a christian view of having to honor the body after death in a certain way to ensure the soul’s safety in the afterlife. And while I encourage you to explore societies that don’t see necromancy as evil, I also encourage you to explore societies that see necromancy as evil for different reasons.

Drow might believe that after death, your body belongs to Lolth and must be fed to spiders. Reanimating a body means stealing from Lolth and must therefore be punished.

A Zoroastrian inspired society might believe that with death, evil starts infesting the body, so dead bodies must be kept away from the community, and reanimating them keeps them in the community and is therefore bad.

Hi consider this your blessing from a certified forever GM, to please make your TTRPG characters Mary Sues.

Listen if you spend enough time in the hobby you will inevitably get people turning up their nose, saying you need to make your PCs “realistic”. These people are wrong! Especially when it comes to DnD. There’s nothing wrong with tropes but after a while all the human fighters who used to be in the army, and elf wizard trying to live up their family legacy start to blur together.

The same cannot be said for the diamond-skinned demi-goddess cleric who started her prayers with “Hey mom, it’s me”; the self-described “slutty pyromaniac” tiefling sorcerer; the ranger who wanted to domesticate an army of rats and declare herself “queen of the sewers”; or the slightly macabre mushroom druid who became a sheepgirl while trying to cast “trans your gender”.

The difference between the way d&d establishes gnolls and the way the new pathfinder book does is really really interesting

Guess which is which

More alternative explanations for that trap-filled maze of twisty passages in your Dungeons & Dragons game:

It’s a proof-of-concept designed by a rock gnome architect who had several revolutionary ideas about high-density residential housing; unfortunately, while any of those ideas by itself might have worked out for the better, the architect had not entirely thought through the implications of combining all of them at once  

The castle was built with a hilariously overengineered foundation in an effort to compensate for the sandy, unstable soil – and thanks to that foundation, when the soil inevitably subsided anyway, rather than collapsing, the castle simply… descended; the inhabitants constructed new floors atop the old, and continued to do so for several generations until everyone involved came to their senses  

It’s a combination museum and containment facility for magic items considered too dangerous for general use, but too culturally significant to destroy; the “prophetic inscriptions” on the walls are, in the original Middle Dwarvish, very dry and matter-of-fact safety advisories, their meaning obscured by the considerable poetic liberties of modern translations  

It’s a 1:1 scale diorama constructed by a dragon with a lot of time on its hands; the dragon was very into the aesthetics of human architecture, but wasn’t terribly familiar with the particulars of human culture and biology, and thus had several very peculiar ideas about how a habitable human structure is put together  

It turns out there isn’t a real upper limit to how big mimics can get

Ok ok ok, I've got a good one from work if you want to hear a very fresh interaction with an extremely vain woman.

My favorite part of my dnd group right now is that their collective anxiety creates a better story than I do when planning the session.

Tabletop character concept: Ratfolk who worships the moon goddess, but only because he thinks the moon is made of cheese and she will give him some if he is good.

When the DM says something like “The room appears to be empty” or “so you touch the object?”
