Yeah I think that can be a trap a lot of newer DMs can fall into, not understanding the difference between mediums like TV, movies, or books and the collective nature of D&D stories. Really extended sequences that require things to go a certain way are risky in D&D because you never know what the players will do!

Shit I think you’re right.

This particular character was more of the penultimate evil dude and was also a former ally that betrayed them. So it was more of his motives for why he did what he did.

In the grand scheme of things it wasn’t a huge deal they just thought oh well that guy went crazy or something rather than understanding his personal motives which would have made the overall plot a little more coherent.

Thanks for verifying. I feel like I’ve become paranoid nowadays.

The issue was a lot of the events had already happened. So the plot just ended up making less sense than it should have. His speech was more about his motives and why he betrayed the party since he was a former ally.

But yeah maybe I should have brought him back (since they never saw the body and he was an archfey) but I never saw the right time for it and that campaign ended.

Some democrats might care, although I feel like Clinton’s power has really fallen off so who knows.

Daniel Swain is on Mastodon? Fuck yeah I knew he was cool.

He’s real smart so take this seriously for those of you in this storm track.

Fuck war, and fuck Donald Trump.

Is that AI? Trump looks very unlike himself. And what hat is that?

lol this happened in a campaign I was running. I foolishly thought the villain should reveal details of his evil plan across rounds of combat. And also that it would be cool to have the battle on the backs of giant rocs.

You can probably see where this is going but let’s just say the battle lasted about 2 rounds.

Imagine not caring that a mass-murderer and wannabe tyrant occupies the most powerful political office in the world and uses it to threaten the safety of both Americans and non-Americans on a daily basis.

Not sure where you’re sitting that you feel safe from this but this is a very strange comment.

I think there is a cause here most people don’t see. Voters often assume women will be more left or more compassionate, regardless of their actual opinions or policies. Because of this, to appeal to the median voter, female politicians often need to go further right, either intentionally or unintentionally, to compensate. Alternatively, this stereotype might allow them to get away with more of this behavior if that is their real personality/ideology.

I mean there is objectively evidence Trump might be a pedophile. It’s not strong evidence but it’s evidence. I’m not aware of any for Biden.

Trump was accused of raping a 13 year old. The lawsuit was filed in 2016. Unfortunately the victim never came forward publicly and the case was dropped. Whether that’s because it was meritless or due to threats and intimidation isn’t clear. However, it’s interesting to note that this accusation included Epstein, and this was before his wrongdoing was really public knowledge, which makes it more credible in my eyes.

It also matches Trump’s other behavior and known sexual crimes quite well. My conclusion is, more likely than not, that Trump raped a child.

Biden, who knows? He was a powerful man but I haven’t heard any accusations against him.

Pretty week case laid out here. While I wouldn’t be surprised by CIA involvement, they present essentially zero evidence of such…

I agree, looks like an avocado pit where the skin has come off.

A general location would help, although I guess an avocado pit could be found anywhere due to global trade.

Why would this bother me lol

This is way more common than wildlife biologists want to admit.

This saga makes it clear that all anti-terrorism laws need to be repealed.

Raped with a fucking knife… I’m not sure why so few outlets choose to report that fun little detail.
