We have a beautiful distinction in German. Arbeit means work in almost all the same senses as it does in English. Lohnarbeit – lit. salary work – is the one you do for some else in exchange for money.

Lohnarbeit is inherently degrading.

Calling Jamaican English oder Patois an accent is a tiny bit derogatory, because it is its own language. It has its roots firmly in English, but it’s not just “haha talk funny”.

Not that Steven Seagull would care. Or should have tried to sing in Jamaican English. Or sing at all. Or do anything besides sit in prison forever.

Please don’t. That war was insanely warcrimey and horrific.

Has anyone ever happily passed away?

I don’t think she was happy about it, no.

While we have tons of DND meme channels and some dedicated to tabletop RPGs in general, I would really love to see lemmy.world/c/dm_academy flourish. I got invaluable tips and feedback to the campaign I’m GM’ing.

That’s great, maybe they’ll display illusory copies. Thank you!

zakobjoa, 12 days ago

Yeah, that’s basically what I meant with the “pulling apart”. Your explanation makes more sense though, so thank you!

zakobjoa, 12 days ago

That’s interesting, but some of those items need to be physically interacted with. But it’s a nice concept to keep in mind. Thanks!

That goes in the direction of my “pulling apart” thingy where you’d replicate the item I to a magic one for use and an inert one for display.

I like the idea of just transferring the enchantments into similar items that my players themselves can design. Thank you!

I didn’t want the items to end up with the somewhat evil collector anyways. As far as I know my players, they’ll side with the museum, even if it means less money – one of them is a librarian/protector of knowledge kinda cleric.

You bring up similar points to the other commenters regarding the safety of displaying originals. That’s definitely something I’ll argue with.

Right now I’m thinking they’ll transfer the magic to something my group can use, use the original (now inert) items for preservation/research and display illusory copies.

Thank you for taking the time to answer so thoroughly!

I like the idea, but they actually have a very detailed backstory and connecting them to the museum would be somewhat unbelievable.

They were the very bookish librarian of a very small and remote monastery where they grew up and only left because they ran out of reading material.

I’ll definitely stick a mental pin in your idea though, maybe we’ll find a reason for that connection.

I like getting the group into some sort of dilemma, but your enthusiasm for fire is a little unsettling :D

zakobjoa, 11 days ago

Interesting proposal, unfortunately getting all the items is basically the campaign, so they’ll get one every few sessions, not all at once.
