#dnd is a fun game

I really like gods in D&D, especially Bahamut, and I’ve been playing around with the idea of manifestations so I made this.

He’s a manifestation of Bahamut and his current name is Florence Gaillard, although that stands subject to change. His purpose in campaigns is to silently torment the players by just being unnerving and creepy, especially towards players who aren’t great people. Every inn they go to is run by him, he constantly looks like a cross between an elf and a chihuahua, he looks at them intensely whenever they do and say something wrong, and he gives them small directions and tips that turn out to be very useful to the players. Small things that make the DM’s life easier, but with everything done specifically so that the players suspect him of being a demon.

He will also help out unfortunate NPCs, since he is Bahamut, and he will try to sabotage the players if they are doing anything immoral against the poor and unfortunate (and they can catch him doing this).

And I’d also like to yap a bit about my ideas for manifestations. Basically, gods can’t really manifest themselves on the material plane except in extremely specific circumstances, but can create manifestations, who look and act like normal(ish) people, in order to do tasks.

There’s lots of room for variety for manifestations. Gods can have multiple active at once, and they are capable of talking and physically interacting with each other. Not all manifestations also know that they are manifestations or connected to a god in any way, and may spend their time wondering why small details about the world sometimes seem to bend to their will. They will also all have wildly different personalities; for example, a manifestation of Bahamut could be a noble paladin protecting the weak from evil, or they could be a Robin Hood type character who spends their time tormenting the rich for their sins, or they could be a little gremlin who keeps their eyes on troublesome players at all times. Despite this, all manifestations hold the same core beliefs and values as their god.

Manifestations do not have biological families, even if they may think they do or have memories of a biological family. The gods create them in whatever form they’re in and then send them off. They can create found families if they so want, but most end up kind of separated from society.

Although they may have small powers associated with their god, whether they realize it or not, they are still effectively mortal and the players can kill them. If a god is feeling petty (as it goes with Florence), then they can just recreate the manifestation and put them back. Gods are also fully aware of what is happening with their manifestations at all times.

it's so nice to see my boy again, and to put him back into (more of the same) situations

I swear if I see another "go play something else" person on my dash I will get violent because y'all are so fucking annoying, how about you get a life and stop telling people what to play, you high horse riding jobless elitists?

am I going to buy any WoTC resource? no, they can go fuck themselves. but you know there is an option of... not paying for shit? like not a single dime?

so stop hiding your annoying elitism behind being "anti-capitalist" and "anti-corporation". there are people literally sharing free resources on this hellsite. I run an entire game with none of my players owning a single official thing from WoTC, neither do I.

shut up <3

For those interested in knowing what happened: This was taken right after our our paladin PC Luci was brutally killed in combat at Argynvostholt. It surprisingly wasn't Silas like we were all anticipating, he was safe cowering behind a pillar at the other end of the hall with Viktor. Thankfully we were able to use our one and only Raise Dead scroll to bring him back but we are all throughly traumatised.

We're playing Curse of Strahd tonight! Please send your thoughts and prayers, we're all so scared of the combat we're about to go into and Silas only has 30 Hit Points!

Prompt 212

“Did we just pull an Isekai?” 

“I mean, does it count if it’s practically just Ghostwriter’s usual shit, just more chaotic?” 

“Sam, this is like a game, look, we even have inventory overlays!” 

“Yeah but Tuck, I died so therefor I pulled an isekai, right?” 

“Shit, why does that make sense?” 

“Boys, perhaps actually look into your overlay there? Perhaps look at the map as well?” 

“... oh my Ancients, guys, we’re not the players, we’re going to be the bosses of this game.”

. . . 

“This is going to be so much fun guys.” 

The JL Jr team would really like it to be known that they are in fact done with Klarions shenanigans. This is literally the first day school is out for the summer for them! Who even showed him DnD and anime anyway?!

BG3 has taken over my personal life haha so here's a sketch dump of my Tav! She's a half-elf Rogue with a Sage background. I wanted to go for an archeologist/explorer background - like a mix of Evelyn and Rick from The Mummy :)! I stole lots of paintings and it always made me laugh the animation of Tav stuffing a huge painting into her inventory so I had to do a comic of her actually trying to sneak one out haha

People are forgetting g that Taliesin is also the guy who had his PC have a soul eating demon inside of him, and who killed his own PC with a poorly timed optional mechanic which he didn’t need to use. Like. Y’all thought he wasn’t going to do this? Y’all are dense. Man’s been playing 5d chess this whole time lmao.
