gotta love when you learn the ceo of the company you were proud of is a dirtbag that doesn't care about the mental wellbeing of those who work under him, and now wants to eliminate the position entirely to outsource it to another country for cheap so those other workers can be underpaid and probably treated like garbage. did i mention he fired probably the best manager i've ever had in my life, literally the month of xmas? then i may not have a job after xmas either.

fucking rip.

got 2 piggyback on my friends' DND session and LET ME TELL U.

opened up a HOLE new world.

got the inspo. time to get cracking.

*rubs hands misschiefly*


i am so happy for you :pepepray: DND is like crack for me. i play every sunday with some of my friends and let me tell you it is not enough!!

i've also recently learned of a board game called talisman which up to 6 people can play at once (and it's surprisingly easy and non-dnd player friendly) - would recommend if you like dnd (but be warned the game can last hours. we got sucked in for FOUR HOURS. werth it.)

idk much about d&d bc i don't play d&d (not trying to remember rules and spells), but maybe you're right.
;-|
ye, ye, ye. b/c i think what u just asked for sounds familiar.
i think this site might be to your suiting:

hxllmth.jcink.net/index.php?act=idx

i think they're also d&d-inspired and basically have something similar to what you're asking for. (use to go by endorrain) but they've since updated, so idk if it's like what they were before the name change. but i recommend checking it out to see if it's to you're liking, poggies.



staffer here o/ (ty so much for the shoutout; sobs) i think the only thing we probably have that may be intimidating is we do have a long guidebook but the plus is that you don't need to read all of it at once to get the gist of the information as a lot of it is supplemental to the world's lore. and if you really don't want to do any kind of systems - you're more than welcome to make a character that doesn't utilize stats if you just want to partake in the world and fantasy aspect!

i like to think our core combat system is pretty easy? but it is based off dnd and we have plenty of members both staff and non-staff who'd be more than happy to help if you want to learn but aren't really sure where to start! we have some members who never really touched dnd before joining and are enjoying their time as well and have even explored dming on the site too!

if you have any questions or want more info, feel free to shoot me a message <3

I'm gonna go ahead and third this.  I've also never played a single second of the game, but I did dive into the lore out of curiosity a couple years back and, man, did I not realize how much I was gonna enjoy it!
i'm really down to do something like this. fourthing this.


i had ran one once before, i can do it again. something chill would be nice :peperelax: might take me a bit cause of all the lore but i can probably get one done ~

for anyone who might need to hear it:

it's okay to drop your toxic friend(s). it doesn't matter if they call you names or insult you or say you're a coward or some other manipulative tactics when you try - you are not obligated to be their friend. you've tried. you've expressed your feelings or spent plenty of times trying to pick up after their messes that aren't your fault. it isn't your fault and you don't deserve it.

it might be really hard at first - but it will be much better for you in the long run and much better for your mental health, which is far more important.

you are strong! you can do this!

kitten hugs for support

if anyone wants to watch some spooky movies: verรณnica, the 8th night, and the newest conjuring movie were pretty good. i especially liked the 8th night cause I felt like it wasn't necessarily your typical horror movie (but i also feel like i can't say much on that since i really don't watch too many movies but yeah :DLKSJLJDF)

omgggg i'm in the same boat with my d&d 5e session we had tonight. originally it was kinda shitty but some crazy stuff happened and turned a lot around...lo and behold, may i just say i am now the god of cheetahs : ' )
Okay, ah - please tell me this story, because I NEED to know. God of cheetahs, HELLO?


Actually it was probably one of the most emotional d&d sessions I've ever been in I'm ngl. XD It's a long story so if you want to read it I'll type the important bits below:

In my DM's world there's an egyptian-themed place known as Mynama. In Mynama there are a race of Beastman that break down into Highborns and Lowborns. Highborns have animal parts and are highly revered while the Lowborn are treated like garbage and are basically like humans. In addition there are the Pharaohs (highborns) who each govern over a part of the city which is broken up into different sections.

My character, Tarajaa (a monk king cheetah Highborn), had originally woken up in Mynama with no memories of who she is. As we go through the campaign and unlock the lore of the world, she gathers a few memories that she was formerly a "Primal". Primals in my DMs world are ancient (typically neutral) beings that are much older entities that govern over the various aspects of nature. Tarajaa was formerly the Primal of the Desert when one of the pharaohs killed her for reasons we don't know yet. The primal split itself in two when it was killed, creating Tarajaa and telling her in a dream that she "needed to right the wrongs".

Essentially we find out that the Highborns were created by a powerful tool of the Darkness, which is why Highborn often feel empty and lost. We aren't fully alive and are basically abominations as we weren't fully created whole. This powerful evil dragon does some humbo-jumbo that reveals to everyone our "true form" and blam, suddenly all the highborn are turned into full-on animals.

So Tarajaa is a cheetah, the pharaohs have all become their animal forms, my friend Kallah got turned into a bunny since she was a highborn. The lowborns start to revolt and start to kill the highborns who are now animals.

While some of the party goes to try and stop the fighting, Tarajaa and her friend Aelar (an Eladrin sorcerer that follows "The Light" [kinda like God]) are trying to figure out how to fix this. Well part of what we had been doing along our journey was collecting these super rare ingredients for a recipe that would "Make Everything Lost, Whole Again". One of the recipes on there is the spirit of sacrifice.

Seeing all that she knows and loves being destroyed, Tarajaa offers herself as sacrifice for the last ingredient that they need. Mynama is all she has and these people traveling with her are all she knows and she figures she'd rather be lost and save Mynama then live without it and her companions.

As Aelar goes to kill her, time pauses for everything except Aelar and Tarajaa. The sky splits open to reveal all of space and time as "The Light" has deemed this sacrifice worthy. It summons a small fish for Aeler to kill and when he kills the fish, a burning flame arises from it aka "The Spirit of Sacrifice".

Putting all the ingredients together and performing the Dimming, Aelar finishes the ritual that fills all of the Highborn's darkness with light and making them whole. No longer abominations but "true" living beings.

Tarajaa then passes out and has a dream with the Primal again. She gets her memories back and remembers that the pharaohs killed her because she (as the primal of the desert) was going to kill the Highborns for being abominations. But now that she's made them whole again and "righted the wrongs", her mission is complete. Despite once being part of the primal, she is now deemed her own entity. The primal (a swirling mass of sand) forms into a vague humanoid shape and touches Tarajaa's forehead, deeming her the Primal of Cheetahs for completing her mission.

She wakes up with her new powers and now herself and her comrades prepare for war as they get ready to fight that big bad dragon mentioned earlier who serves the Darkness. XD Now we have a full on war coming and we'll be finished with this campaign in like two more sessions?
