I DM'd for the first time today and it was so freaking fun! I didn't know what I was doing! I was coming up with a plot that's going to extend into other sessions on the fly! I did the voices! I'm coming up with a history for these NPCs! This is amazing!

Do you know this (noncanon) ADHD character?

Evidence below the cut!

can be pretty hyperactive, forgets things regularly (even important things, forgot he turned into a heartless in kh1), distractable, later on he seems to have some problems with emotional dysregulation. hes constantly called lazy by his friends but as soon as hes doing something he likes he has all the energy in the world, and also tends to dismiss his own intelligence despite actually being pretty smart, both of which are things that i think are decently common with undiagnosed adhd

#poll #noncanon adhd character #kingdom hearts #kh #sora #kh sora #sora kh #kingdom hearts sora #sora kingdom hearts #THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG TAG RAMBLE #ok first sora even getting posted is like a saga #originally i was going to post him myself but had trouble verbalizing evidence #so i asked my discord friends #and then i forgot to write down what they said and lost it #then he got submitted in the initial submissions right when the blog started #but the only evidence was 'look at him lol'#so he was unpostable #then he finally got submitted again during the recent spike with actual evidence!! so i can post him now #sora is so important to me #kingdom hearts is how i found playframe and that community is a huge part of my life now #and also i spent multiple years playing a weekly ttrpg campaign in a completely homebrew kh system #and it was the most fun ive ever had in my life and i am not exaggerating #there was only one other non dm player so three of us in all #and we had such a great dynamic we are such close friends now and the dm even looked up tips for dming for adhd players #and gave my character the ability impulsiveness which turned out to be one of our most powerful abilities #(i say our bc later we got the 'sisterly bond' ability which allowed us to use some of our coplayer's abilities and impulsiveness was one)#it let me take an action during someone else's turn at the cost of one less action on my next turn. basically taking it early #making her adhd one of our most powerful tools #and my character ended up very much a sora parallel despite not living in the time of the main kh games #so yeah. kh and adhd sora specifically. very important to me

I’m finishing up Northanger Abbey and it really gripped me just how much Catherine and Henry are friends first and foremost, that we get to see this natural supportive relationship rising up between them almost replacing the imagined romance of the earlier part of the story. Catherine’s friendship with Eleanor becomes just as much of a focus, and the three of them together are fantastic. Instead of contrasting a dreadful romantic interest (like Wickham) with an appealing one, the main contrast is between a dreadful flimsy friendship (Isabella) and the friendships Catherine earns by the end. The proposal is practically an afterthought.

I love the yearning and drama of the other Austen books I’ve read, but this book struck me just for the level of grounded heart beneath the gothic whimsy.

#northanger abbey #i got sold on them in the carriage ride #with henry teasingly DMing a gothic haunted house exploration dramatically #with catherine just ENTHRALLED and having so much fun #it was one of those ‘oh he GETS her’ moments and so incredibly charming

Enjoyers of Watcher and DnD IMAGINE, if you will, the Watcher boys playing in a homebrew world containing their favourite cryptids like bigfoot, mothman, goatman, etc... possibly DMed by Brennan Lee Mulligan or Matt Mercer...

so in juniper's campaign we've just found ourselves in a high-stakes situation that I as a player do frankly find stressful and am anxious about, but hey hi also the DM was like 'okay here are the exact mechanics of how this is going to work because I don't want to surprise you with serious repercussions, also here are all the options you will have to try to do something about the situation-- [affected player] what do you think? honest feedback, I don't want it to feel unfair, I want to be clear that I am not just trying to kill your character, and if it ends up being badly balanced we can revisit it down the road' and oh my god I could COLLAPSE and WEEP with gratitude

#[tears in my fucking eyes] WHAT IF DND WAS GOOD!! WHAT IF A DM THAT'S GOOD!!!#LIKE I've said actually MOST of my DMs are good but because of the way this situation was presented specifically #where-- as NOT the affected player-- it does feel like the way it came up was a little unfair and I AM worried about the stakes--#I REALLY SPENT SO MUCH OF THAT ABOVE-TABLE TALK GOING OH WOW I FEEL LIKE OUR FRIEND ACTUALLY LOVES US AND WANTS THIS TO BE FUN!!#I DON'T KNOW THAT I AGREE WITH WHAT HE'S DOING HERE BUT I TRUST MY FRIEND AND IT'S SAFE FOR US TO TALK ABOUT THINGS LIKE THIS PLAYER TO DM!!#WOWIE THAT FEELS RELEVANT TO MY DND EXPERIENCE RIGHT NOW LMAO!!!#'I've looked at your stats and inventories to try to make this serious but balanced but if it doesn't work we can retool it'#'I want to be extremely clear that this situation could kill destal so I want to be extremely sure that you're comfortable with that--#-- and with how the mechanics are designed around it'#I am fucking. on my KNEES WEEPING. at the contrast with how punishing and DEEPLY unfun felix campaign has relentlessly been the whole time #and how little of a fuck it feels like THAT DM gives when he's like 'this random rolltable encounter was deadly :)'#'you guys didn't get hit last time and got all your spells back right?' uhhh wrong and wrong and we TALKED about that last time #are you gonna revisit the balance on your fifth in a row 'if you fail you'll TPK' scenario? no? yeah I figured lol #christ knows HE'S never invited feedback on his DMing. you KNOW I don't feel safe to say 'hey this doesn't feel fair or fun' with him #AND LIKE!! WITH A DM I TRUST I FEEL SAFE ENOUGH TO REALLY PLAY WITH SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENING!! YAY YIPPEE STAKES AND PATHOS!!!#I don't just want nothing bad to happen ever! but I don't want it to feel careless or heartless or just... Not Fun #anyway. grasping william's hands so tightly. my beloved friend. my wonderful friend. what a relief to have a DM that's good #after the shit we've been through in our now most-frequently-run campaign #the thing I'm mad about is that destal has been making a mystery saving throw every night-- but this was imperceptible to the characters #so we weren't acting on it #and now that he's failed it three times the situation is 'okay NOW you will be maming a con save every night and accumulating exhaustion'#'which can't be removed by sleeping' [six levels of exhaustion Kill You]#so like!! well okay I wish we had had ANY way of knowing how urgent this was before we got to 'now there's a deadly countdown' BUT OKAY #but like I said. he clearly put a lot of thought into the math for the mechanics #he made sure that we DO actually have ANYTHING we can do to mitigate the condition and outlined several options specifically and clearly #he checked in with justin about whether that seemed fair and opened it for future retooling if necessary #so I'm just at 'that was kind of a rugpull dude :/' instead of DESPAIRING lmao #this is a level of Oh Shit that's juicy! this is a level of Oh Shit that might force dramatic character choices out of desperation!#THIS IS AN OH SHIT WHERE WE STILL GET TO PLAY DND ABOUT IT AND HAVE ANY AGENCY WHATSOEVER. WHAT A CONCEPT.#ANYWAY!!! GOOD DND SAVE ME!!!!!!!!!

Whats the yaoi check???

so in the game i'm currently running we've had this ongoing thing about a romance novel called star-cursed lovers.

it's a subplot that advances every so often, where this romance novel appears in different volumes & rarities, but the covers, characters, and even some content of these books vary from person to person. my players are still well into the beginning of this plot

i should note that the first appearance of star-cursed lovers was to a solo pc. the cover & content they saw was of themselves and another pc 😭

yaoi rolls (1d20 + charisma modifier) are done during flirting or romance scenes, for the most part, and they affect not only how well the character does in that particular check, but all rolls add up towards the advancement of the scl quest.

it's all completely based on the fact that we find that shit hilarious

#my players have made awesome art of the covers btw #its actually funny. this is the first time im really explaining it in this much detail so my players are finding out stuff too #SORRY IF THIS EXPLANATION SUCKS BTW. bongled off my gourd #dnd #dming is fun

Ough. Post-session fatigue is hitting harder than usual today.

#i think it's because it's um. a friday after school. and also we picked up after like a 2 month hiatus. and also it's my new player group #as much as i love them (truly they are Amazing players in terms of creativity and roleplay and scheduling and such) it is a little...#it feels like higher stress because i want to match their level of detail and like... creativity (which i did)#but also i want to make sure that they are having fun which like. dms always want to do. but them especially #bc this is their first experience w/ dnd and i don't want to turn them off it. bc your first dm can really make or break it yk?#but like hhhhh after my players left i just. kinda cried. and it's wild bc it was a good session and they said that they enjoyed it #but the crash was still So real. also like explaining the rules (it was our first combat they know the rules In Theorybut yk how it is)#like tbh explaining the rules wasn't even that bad it was just. i think it was also just i was tired bc of school #(tbh this year i've just gone home midday on fridays bc i get so exhausted on them) and also first sess in a while and cetera #anyway i'm feeling a little better now bc i talked w/ one of my players and she was like. enthusing abt it. and i listened to good music #but like. wooo. that was a REALLY bad post sess crash i haven't felt that bad in ages #d&D #dante dicit #might delete #dming #dm'ing #dungeon master #dm #dungeons and dragons

i made an oc thats at least nicknamed "Stupid" and im constantly thinking about what a power move that is tbh

#toy txt post #i miss it i should play w her more often but it was going to be for a dnd thing that ive all but abandonded bc i feel like #i cant. do that but it sucks bc i had some cool fun concepts and characters but it was hard enough back then when i was just insecure and #knew nothing about dnd and was intimidated by the mechanics but wanted to try dming for some reason but now i just straight up dont know #what to do but i really enjoy those characters. i should just unlock the secret channelsand scrap the dnd game idea for now and keep the #concepts and im sure i could come up w something if i ever actually learned anything about that shit #anyway. my point being. im obsessed w my character i made up and you should be too cos its good shit #toxic anarchist half dragon demigod with authority issues whos an alloaro clown named Stupid Cupid.#i think her pronouns were whatever but also it/she? when i say toxic i mean it did have a bit of a Clown Cult.#Cupid i think is possibly its given name and Stupid was her clown ass addition and yes i do know of the song and yes it is on its playlist #obsessed w all the stupid overpowered characters i made in that universe. they were such good concepts. gulliver obviously. charybdis #silas (cupids father + previous (now deceased) god of chaos)#cupids mother who i dont think i had a name for yet but she was supposed to be kind of a neutral lawful (in a rules lawyering way)#moon paladin who hatefucked the god of chaos after failing to kill him which she was trying to do out of devotion to the moon #and she supposed to have what i can only describe as chainsaw powers? and she destroyed every gun in existence and killed anyone who knew #how to make them until there were no guns left bc silas kept being annoying w guns and was trying to use them on the moon. for reasons #so she really pissed him off and impressed him before she finally got to him and tried to kill him. and if she was even a minor god instead #of a 'mortal' it wouldve worked and thats the only reason he didnt die from her. and then her child. stupid cupid the clown #grew up and had issues and started a clown cult and wandered around usurping warlords and dictators before putting her aim on silas #and trying to kill him. but failing not bc she was mortal but bc he outsmarted it. but he couldbt bring himself to kill it so he had her #put to sleep for a thousand yrs until someone else killed him(he pissed off a stupid seagull druid who lured him into the path of Charybdis #who he'd ALSO pissed off and Charybdis mega killed him and then the gull druid was made the new god of chaos just to have someone fill the #roll but then they kind of suck at it? they did not want that much responsibility altho the immortality is nice. when they took over they #released cupid whos a bit of a legend but then the vibes are super weird bc cupid Definitely wants to usurp and take on the mantle of #chaos deity and gulliver idolizes her but doesnt feel great about just handing that over to it? and cupid has to grapple with not being the #one to kill silas. almost everyone she knew is dead. her mom isnt. the world has changed a lot. she finds out her cult is still going and #gets excited? but they have Changed. it disgusts her now. they are not the radical clowns she intended. the vibes are weird. she denounces #that and tries out piracy. she manages to get the moon paladin living chainsaw power?#despite not being aligned w their ideology at all. wow nepotism. then it was going to spiral into some fucking meta galactic shit and have #well. ran out of tags. anyway i miss this character i should figure out what im doing w this universe cos theres no way im dming rn 🙃

Outside of light bright’s always being weirdly colorist (natural mixed female….. you’re saying that about yourself? If so, let me guess, the mother is of the completion of a napkin. It all makes so much sense.) can people please learn to not record complete strangers in public, please.

#she went viral recording a woman with a BBL at the gym and the woman ended up DMing her and now this lady is getting backlash and doesn’t #seem to care in the slightest for trying to make fun of someone else’s appearance by claiming that it’s a public space and that she can do #what she wants #I feel like if you see someone recording you if you even so much as catch a whiff of it then it should be within your right to push these #people onto train tracks #it’s just so mean spirited #it’s grammar school levels of bullying #taking videos and pictures of ppl in order to go viral and have people laugh at them because you think they look #ugly ridiculous and stupid #same thing with ppl recording people having an episode that they cannot control #people talking to themselves the homeless fat people #etc #you just come out looking like a weirdo at the end of the day #recording people without their knowledge and consent should be a crime tbh especially if it’s done with malicious intent in order to shame #them #or bring harm to them #rambling

dm for your friends dm for your friends I’m so fucking serious

#I cannot describe how good for the soul it has been #to just be able to ask people to play a oneshot and that means I just get to throw some friends of mine in a discord #I was worried people wouldn’t want to or that they wouldn’t get along and instead #we’re already making stupid intercontinental waterslide heist plans. I love y’all so much #like yes I’m nervous about this being my second (!!) time ever DMing and it’s for people whom I really want to have fun (including people #who have DMed for me! and people for whom this is one of their first times playing dnd!)#but also like. it’s gonna be so good and worth it I already know!!#sola said #train heist
