The Helm of Positivity came into play during tonight's #ElementalApocalypse game, in which the paladin Valinor summoned a wall of radiance.
And damn, is that thing bright or what?
The shadows I'd planned to ambush the party with were forced to retreat from the brilliant light, which also revealed their original corpses in the nearby lake.
Those corpses - nicely pickled - led the group to suspect there is a black dragon lair nearby. #DnD#DnD5e#TTRPG#RPG#Greyhawk
Overall, this was a good session. I haven't DMed in a few weeks, so I felt a little rusty. And #Roll20 was being super annoying when it came to drawing and then moving shapes. I'm not sure exactly what causes it to manifest the "hand" option that lets you drag things, but it's infuriatingly inconsistent. #VTT

I'm getting ready to make my implementation of the #TheExpanse#TTRPG for #Roll20 available to the general public.
QUESTION: All I see on Roll20 is how to publish content for pay on their marketplace, but I want to make this available for free. Does anyone here have experience distributing Roll20 content outside of their marketplace?
I figure I can just upload the package to github, but it'd be nice if there was a native, searchable solution to share stuff on their platform.
Feel free to join us if you have online games that need players. POST AWAY. Also, feel free to just join if you are a TTRPG fanatic. We have a lot of fun.
Some tinkering with a reskinned Vimary map for my #TribesInTheDark game I'm going to run on #Roll20. It's meant for just quick reference which is why the labels are kind of big. #ttrpg
So I was able to spend a decent chunk of today sorting out the last bits of the #TribesInTheDark#Roll20 sheets and I get done and... Apparently I broke a bunch of unrelated shit. And I have no clue what. Luckily I committed right after I got the hard part of the formatting sorted out when things were working. So I stashed the broken version and at some point will be doing a comparison to try to salvage as much of the work as possible or fix what I broke.
So when I was looking for tokens I found a lot of options, many of them free. What i didn’t find though was stuff that had that OSR kind of charm of reusing old public domain sources, which I think might fit beautifully with, e.g. Dyson’s style of maps.
So I went and spent a few hours with Wikimedia Commons and TokenTool, making a small collection of tokens sourced from public domain illustrations.
I also found a few new artists that I should look more into, so even if I never get around actually using many of them I have at least that. I think I need to expand this thing though. It still is missing a lot of the monsters and NPCs I think I might need for my game.
I've been plugging away at improving my sheet's appearance for Tribes in the Dark and I'm happy enough with it to stop futzing. Pretty much gone through every element and changed, rearranged, etc. I'm not happy with the big section in the middle for armor boxes but I'm leaving it be until I figure out something better to do with it.
So freaking annoying. Somewhere along the way, a reminder box showing what playbooks to type in stopped working. I couldn't get it to work again without breaking things I had added (it's important to know I don't know what I'm doing exactly). So I got the bright idea of making it a clickable icon that reveals it, like the sheet settings. The hiding and showing part works but I can't get the text actually appear (again, I don't know what I'm doing). #CSS#HTML#Roll20
For anyone playing #dnd5e or #dnd on #roll20#vtt that has new players at their table, I made this little color map of the D&D 5e by roll 20 character sheet to help newer players navigate it a little quicker.
The most commonly used areas have a colored box. This way you can easily describe where what is
"Roll for initiative, that's the purple box up in the center"
"Do you know the Goblin language? That should be below the green box somewhere."
I can't yet encompass what #VTT features of #Roll20 you get with #ActivityPub? Wouldn't you have to write all the VTT features from scratch, and people have their own VTT server instances using federation to run games and provide watchable/recordable game play streams?
