Hi, I was writing a campaign setting that was meant to be a heavy metal, sword and sorcery, Robert Howard style setting....

Yesterday I ran Last Things Last for a group of 4 friends, and this will have some spoilers for that module. All DND and other ttrpg veterans but no one had ever played Delta Green before. I think everyone had a great time, and I’m definitely interested in doing more, probably The Last Equation next....

A little background information: Since we’re all busy adults, our group plays mostly via chat instead of meeting in-person. And I don’t mean voice chat, but taking turns typing out the actions of your characters in an actual text-based chat. Occasionally, we get a newbie wanting to join and usually embrace them with open...

Couldn’t find one but was wondering if there is a Glorantha community here on Lemmy. Any tips?

I was curious if anyone else had tried out bringing in boardgame content/ideas into their RPG games? Minis are always great to bring in as some boardgames have some great figures to use, but also, just incorporating mechanics, settings, as a mini-game, or just the general idea of a game into an RPG seems like a great resource....

What programs do you use for making hexmaps? I want to make a map for my players but my art skills are very lacking

Hello everyone. New to lemmy and out to participate....

This is purely hypothetical, just for fun. In this scenario, you don’t get to know who the GM is in advance, but they do have to run it as written. The players can leave whenever they like, but the GM has to stay until either all players leave or the players beat the dungeon.

I’ll start with a little bit of background. I moved to a different country just about two years ago and I have been slowly working on the language. I haven’t had many close friends who share similar interests with me. I also don’t care for the online games. Those reasons combined I haven’t played d&d in just about those...

That’s right, we have. Well, kind of. We mentioned it briefly in 2019, at Gen Con, but the reference was so short and sparse that it didn’t spread. This was a blessing in disguise because of course the very next year COVID-19 spread across the world, forcing us to change our plans....

Just thought I would add this resource here.

your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell's level....

Preferably not GURPS.

I'm quite intrigued by the game. Anyone got an opinion if this bundle has the "must have" books for the game or is it mostly filler stuff?

I'm about to be in a near future hacker campaign in a watchdogs style Fate Core setting. I'm playing Robert Conrad, or known by my handle as DirtyOlHobo. I'm the closest thing to a grifter we have in the Binary Syndicate....

Ive heard of dnd players playing solo but like how does that work compared to with a party? i dont really have anyone to play with and i dont really like online games of dnd, but for real how do you play solo becasue it looks hard but also interesting....

My kids (10 & 13) and I are wrapping up our first campaign together in D&D 5e, and I'm starting to think about the next one. It's going to be a homebrew setting--future humanity decimated by climate change, but also elements of weird magic with giant plants and insects, inspired by things like Studio Ghibli, Kipo, etc....
