D&d - Blog Posts
My friend @tytoalbias recently created a new DnD character, Elleguire Dubois. Upon learning Elleguire’s backstory, I took a liking to his very queer, very GNC, and very lycanthropic family and decided to draw my take on the Dubois parents.
Turns out that out dungeon master got off track and we left with this cliff hanger ending of being right outside of the evil persons spoon lair and they decided to remake the whole 8 month campaign. -_-
Welp here’s the new Sooch since I’m remaking them!
They like butterflies.
Btw here’s my d&d character that no one asked for.
She ate spiders. She is spiders.
Why do the BBEG’s always have to be a giant dragon massacring demon? Like, sometimes I wish I could just get absolutely wreaked by some human guitarist playing thunderstruck on giant speakers summoning angry squirrels outside of the tiny house he lives in by the woods.
AWWW JOFFY UR SUCH AN ICON NFIRKSNDHIFFRAHHHH
Joffy how r u so cool
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMFG OMFG OMFG
STARRRRRRR AWWWWWWWWWW I WANNA HUG YOU THAT'S SO SWEET
I'm just a little guy, hardly a cool dude. I like to hope people enjoy my relentless enthusiasm for their stuff, I haven't yet been asked by anyone to go away so that's cool XD.
I think it's nice to spread positivity. It gives me the warm and fuzzies when I get told I've made someone happier or feel better about their work. That's like, why I came here in the first place. I only started making the poems as a way to kind of "repay" everyone else's hard work with an attempt to make something myself.
Thank you Star, I'm going to go cry now /pos. This is so fucking sweet of you.
OOOOOH BOY this took me a DAMN LONG TIME
For reference, this is more of a concept for an actual episode rather than an entire AU. That’s also why I didn’t draw Caine and Bubble because their designs would be relatively unchanged (Bubble gets fairy wings and Caine gets a cloak) and they wouldn’t have stats. It’s definitely not because I just finished Zooble’s drawing and would probably keel over dead if I had to draw them.
Above is a bunch of the art I drew before making their refs. Gangle gets her own drawing because I drew her first when I was trying to decide how far from the source material I wanted to go. Ended up not going with the realistic style I started out with and far closer to the show’s official style.
My pc, Sidero Chauvette, finally giving another players pc, Aurikka, the dance she promised < 3
I fucking crippled the bard.
I don't care if this is a fucking ground hog day situation, he gonna stay paralysed.
I am currently DMing a campaign for a school club, and I’ve made the villain a creepy ass cult (they haven’t figured it out, even though they were offered 200goldpieces each), and I decided to put Xenk the paladin in session one (and made he more queercoded), and THEY FUCKING FOUND HIM SUSPICIOUS!!! Bro, he’s just autistic and traumatised.
Update! (This is my friend’s notes)
Wake up in a tavern morning
Find Matt and an unknown man talking about it
Unidentified man: his husband Teldon.
Matt tells us we are in a loop. Only remember it, but actions have not happened yet. Happens when we sleep??
Elberos makes 20 tacos in 5 minutes.
A cult called Xenk - in the town, worships 'the one who waits'. Stolethe village - the reason why Matt has no family.
Matt offers something to help or memories. A potion.
The daughter (preteen) has a necklace that makes her invisible/unknown to the senses.
Elberos does a backflip (successfully)
We drink the potion, but Elberos drink too much and pass out. We tried to wake him, but he wouldn’t.
decide to stay up past midnight - test theory about resetting at 12pm.
We got to the tavern and ordered food - The man in the red cloak (snail?) has already paid the exact amount. (Again)
3 people sitting off to the side - joined by Matt Teldon and their daughter.
Matt?? I think is not eating food.
Food could possibly be resetting thing.
They still haven’t figure out that the NPCs are based off of the D&D movie characters. Also, the town name is Gallifae. The One Who Waits is based off the one who waits/

Ok, just had our second session and notes:
One of them figured out they were trapped in Ground Hog day (it was our teacher). I introduced Xenk’s husband and daughter (Obviously it was Edgin and Kira). They finally realised that Snail (creepy dude), was apart of a cult. AND ELL’BEROS MADE 20 TACOS IN 5 MINUTES. and way more shit.

I don't trust you anymore
Hey if you wanna be an evil DM roll D20 every turn and add 10 and make that the BBEGs AC for that turn of combat
Just watched the Baldur's Gate live D&D session from Magic Con and these are the lessons we've learned: 1. Do not let Lae'zel negotiate anything ever
2. Don't try and sell your friends
3. Lae'zel is a bad influence on Wyll
4. Lae'zel will tear into the fabric of reality to give herself extra reactions; do not leave her unattended
My understanding of D&D is that the GM has the power to make the next quest a heist, but the players control whether the background music for this heist will be the Pink Panther theme, the Mission Impossible theme, or the Benny Hill theme.
I so want this to happen

Dungeons & Drangons Diana and Darius (halfling) Twins brothers
are either of these stories good? cause they sound really interesting
On the one hand, it's true that the way Dungeons & Dragons defines terms like "sorcerer" and "warlock" and "wizard" is really only relevant to Dungeons & Dragons and its associated media – indeed, how these terms are used isn't even consistent between editions of D&D! – and trying to apply them in other contexts is rarely productive.
On the other hand, it's not true that these sorts of fine-grained taxonomies of types of magic are strictly a D&D-ism and never occur elsewhere. That folks make this argument is typically a symptom of being unfamiliar with Dungeons & Dragons' source material. D&D's main inspirations are American literary sword and sorcery fantasy spanning roughly the 1930s through the early 1980s, and fine-grained taxonomies of magic users absolutely do appear in these sources; they just aren't anything like as consistent as the folks who try to cram everything into the sorcerer/warlock/wizard model would prefer.
For example, in Lydon Hardy's "Five Magics" series, the five types of magical practitioners are:
Alchemists: Drawing forth the hidden virtues of common materials to craft magic potions; limited by the fact that the outcomes of their formulas are partially random.
Magicians: Crafting enchanted items through complex manufacturing procedures; limited by the fact that each step in the procedure must be performed perfectly with no margin for error.
Sorcerers: Speaking verbal formulas to basically hack other people's minds, permitting illusion-craft and mind control; limited by the fact that the exercise of their art eventually kills them.
Thaumaturges: Shaping matter by manipulating miniature models; limited by the need to draw on outside sources like fires or flywheels to make up the resulting kinetic energy deficit.
Wizards: Summoning and binding demons from other dimensions; limited by the fact that the binding ritual exposes them to mental domination by the summoned demon if their will is weak.
"Warlock", meanwhile, isn't a type of practitioner, but does appear as pejorative term for a wizard who's lost a contest of wills with one of their own summoned demons.
Conversely, Lawrence Watt-Evans' "Legends of Ethshar" series includes such types of magic-users as:
Sorcerers: Channelling power through metal talismans to produce fixed effects; in the time of the novels, talisman-craft is largely a lost art, and most sorcerers use found or inherited talismans.
Theurges: Summoning gods; the setting's gods have no interest in human worship, but are bound not to interfere in the mortal world unless summoned, and are thus amenable to cutting deals.
Warlocks: Wielding X-Men style psychokinesis by virtue of their attunement to the telepathic whispers emanating from the wreckage of a crashed alien starship. (They're the edgy ones!)
Witches: Producing improvisational effects mostly related to healing, telepathy, precognition, and minor telekinesis by drawing on their own internal energy.
Wizards: Drawing down the infinite power of Chaos and shaping it with complex rituals. Basically D&D wizards, albeit with a much greater propensity for exploding.
You'll note that both taxonomies include something called a "sorcerer", something called a "warlock", and something called a "wizard", but what those terms mean in their respective contexts agrees neither with the Dungeons & Dragons definitions, nor with each other.
(Admittedly, these examples are from the 1980s, and are thus not free of D&D's influence; I picked them because they both happened to use all three of the terms in question in ways that are at odds with how D&D uses them. You can find similar taxonomies of magic use in earlier works, but I would have had to use many more examples to offer multiple competing definitions of each of "sorcerer", "warlock" and "wizard", and this post is already long enough!)
So basically what I'm saying is giving people a hard time about using these terms "wrong" – particularly if your objection is that they're not using them in a way that's congruent with however D&D's flavour of the week uses them – makes you a dick, but simply having this sort of taxonomy has a rich history within the genre. Wizard phylogeny is a time-honoured tradition!
that sounds like the perfect DnD party ngl

Best Christmas presents this year!:
Number one definitely gonna be the backpack my dad gave me. It was his cherished backpack for ages. Back support, hip and sternum straps, pocketsss, you name it. I opened the backpack and a moth fluttered out like in a movie. The best Christmas present by far!
Ramen bowl full of Ramen socks. My 14yo brother really hit the nail on the head this year! I guess I do have that college student aura TM
Jar of peanut butter from Santa. Huge jar.
I saw this sketchbook in the local book store when my 17yo brother and I were Christmas shopping. It had a textured Starry Night cover and ooooo! It's not a lined journal! It's blank paper inside! and he bought it for me 🥹
19yo brother surprised me with a D&D book?? like I don't keep up too much on the discourse of new 5e is bad or whatever folks are saying these days, but I *love* having the physical books because *readability*
