A #ttrpg nerd and a #rodent lover.
Pfp is my #hamster, Mister Peanut Butter, looking shocked at me taking a picture of him while he’s busy grooming himself. Banner picture is of my two #cavy boars, Oreo (right) and Coffecake (left), who are claiming that I have never fed them once and will soon starve to death, despite the full food bowl behind them.

Back when I played in AL, the appeal was less about the content and more about the ability to show up somewhere with a Char sheet and know there will be a table to play at.

Thank you. This was very thorough, and very helpful.
@Toes
Not what I’m asking. I’m asking for lore ideas, like why would the King have outlawed Orcs and put a Bounty on their heads.
But is is common for flying characters to be banned. Not sure why. Everybody can get a bow or crossbow, and there’s no cover up there.
@LibertyLizard
I’m talking about in-world legality. #MCDM has lore about how dragonborn are created being that were crafted during the reign of Good King Omin, so they are a symbol of that better age. As such, the despotic Lord Ajax has placed a bounty for dragonborn heads.
I don’t really have anything comparable in my world, though? There is a bad guy evilling in a holding pattern over the western horizon, but I have other lore about his machinations.

Are you sure about that?
@LemmyKnowsBest not sure what you are picking up on, but I think our #mastodon server runs well partly because our admin works for Google and can bring his expertise over here. I have mixed feelings about that. He is very obviously a fan of the big tech companies and seemed a bit miffed that we all got so upset about #Threads trying to #federate
@Viking_Hippie they also have never felt full once in their life. It’s not something their brain is wired to experience. They remind me of this constantly, as seen in my banner pic https://cdn.masto.host/dicecamp/media_attachments/files/112/026/721/807/170/516/original/8136498ea948dba2.jpg
@Viking_Hippie Cavies are like Rabbits, but are generally hungrier. They like all the vegetables.
However, their normal diet is pellets and hay. They get very excited when they get to have veggies
@pteryx @196 fun fact about child development: Kids don’t develop proper Theory of Mind until they are about 7 years old. Before the age of 7 every child is a little sociopath that is barely capable of comprehending that other people also have feelings.
Its not impossible for them to develop empathy, though it’s hard. You can get those Empathy neurons firing by forcing the kid to think about other people’s feelings at least once a day. So, any kid with good Empathy just has good parents.
@sbv they tend to see clips on either YouTube shorts, TikTok, or incorporated into other things. They don’t need to watch the actual show to think Homander is cool
@onlinepersona @thegiddystitcher that’s actually what I am doing. I found I can just follow all these peertube users from Mastodon, so that’s what I do

What the fuck is going on over there in @196, and how high was I when I followed that community from over here?
You are getting quarantined to a Meme list. Get out of my feed
It’s really not as busted as it sounds, especially since this is likely a dragon with 1d8 hit points and a 15 in its highest stat
Personally, I think the best way to nerf a Dragon PC is strict timekeeping. Each year they get slightly bigger, each week their claws grow just enough to keep them from permanently silvering their claws, etc
I’m thinking about having my pantheon be about that, sort of how in the #Silmarillon the original sin was “a talented prick made the coolest thing, but decided no one else deserved to work with them and got obsessed with protecting their intellectual property”.
Melkor got pissed that he had to compromise his vision with the other Valar when making Arda, Feanor got waay too proud of his Silmarils, Sauron got litigious about his ring-lore IP, and so on. It’s a really good message for a #ttrpg
You actually reminded of this wonderful #dream I had last night about explaining to my fiancée how earthworms are an invasive species
