Somehow this isn't the worst thing I've done to this boy
Today is the birthday of my fictional boy. For this I give you all the one time he triggered a log trap.

The meager hamlet of Battlerise sits along a major trade road and borders the monster-infested Vast Swamp. Recently, attacks from Lizardfolk have rocked the small populace, along with a flight of hundreds from nearby Daerlun, and the disappearance of their beloved Meriana DunBog...

Scarlet Weiserschwanz was a young woman of privilege in the City of Daerlun, with her father being the owner of a bakery conglomerate.

One day, she met the irresistible Prince Errol Addams. In defiance of her father, she ran away to be with her love, but there is no happy ending here...

The royal guards from the City of Daerlun are given a young hippogriff to bond with as they complete their years of dedicated training. Eventually, the pair form a single unit that can defend the city from all kinds of threats.

Caliphus Dante, a fire genasi trapped in a time loop by his former friend and mentor gone insane, was cursed with immortality by a djinni that he found imprisoned in a pocket watch.
Now the power granted by his patron can be wielded for others. Can he be a hero like his new companions?

Queen Andromeda and her owl familiar, Hunger
The only known "child" of Sykane the Whisper, the Elder Fey founder of the Equinox Court.
Born Stella Wachter in Barovia, driven mad by peering into the timeless space between realms, now more powerful and dangerous than anyone our heroes have yet faced.

Two brothers; one who has been burdened with leadership for centuries now finding himself usurped but not ousted, the other blessed with supreme martial prowess but sidelined due to his own arrogance.

They have little in common but their father:

A good moral dilemma at my table looks like this:
- This action will fast-track your character's personal goals, but will also benefit someone your character despises
Some characters will decline out of spite, others will accept for the greater good.
Tells you a lot about them.
Hey #ttrpgCommunity!

What’s your favorite method for handling moral dilemmas during roleplay? How do your players and their characters react to tough choices?

Yaza & Zaya, twin fiends as evil as they are stupid, on the hunt for a runaway princess of the Hells. They failed once to capture her, nearly murdering her closest friend in the process.

Once again they seek their target, unaware of how strong Natasha and her allies have grown...

Hero Forge is best suited to creating characters with big personalities, bigger swords, and displaying a wide array of poses and colors, but as a long-time DM I love to use it for my generic NPCs as well.

It's hard to keep things toned-down while also making them interesting.

First map reveal for the next chapter of the D&D 5e game I'm running! Been really enjoying Inkarnate 2.0's new tools, and after a couple years of making my own maps I'm finally seeing some improvement!

Chapter 3: Canyon of Skulls is going to be my best work yet 😈

When I proposed the idea for a super-long campaign I underestimated how many tavern owners and old men I would have to design

Just two weeks until Chapter 3 of the campaign starts up again! Writing and character design has been going great, but of course the dreaded Map Design must come next
