[@SeeleyOne]

I used to game with a group that at least let a couple of the players take turns at being the "seduce everything" character. I don't see how it is fun, and have wondered if perhaps they are trying to compensate or something. Fortunately, the players that never pay attention usually quit after a while. My sister in law used was one of those, and an (in)famous example was that she would read a novel while we gamed. At some point in the session we get on a boat. A couple of hours later, someone asked her what she wanted to do. She said "I get on the boat". That is what we now say if someone was not paying attention. "Do you get on the boat?"

[@claudioclaudio7953]

European here. Could you explain please?

[@andreas_iced8297]

@@claudioclaudio7953 I'm not an expert, but this is what I gather: If you buy something as a supply for your job, you get to write down the cost you paid, and when everyone gets their tax returns, you get that money back. Example: say I were a vlogger. Because of my work, I buy a fancy camera. Since I bought it for work, I write down the money I paid as a work expense. Later, when I do my taxes, and everyone gets money back (called tax returns), that money gets reimbursed. This has created a kind of running joke, you'll see it if you watch American youtubers long enough (macdoesit comes to mind). Whoever you're watching will take the object they bought, hold it up on camera, and say something to the effect of "gotta make sure it's in frame long enough, get that tax writeoff--aight, we're good". Because if it's in the video, its related to their work (even if that relation is... questionable). Its either: they get reimbursed, or they dont have to pay taxes on it. Again, not sure. But it's something to that effect.

[@EdenOfChaos]

A few months ago I had applied to join a campaign that had been going on for over a year, they had lost a player and wanted to round it back out. I joined their discord and we were creating my character and when it came time to roll my stats, they had a macro to do it and my rolls were 18, 17, 14, 18, 18, 16. I immediately thought, "holy shit, I'm so glad that this is recorded because no one would believe this." and two of the other players who were in the channel were laughing and congratulating me and...the DM simply says, "Yea, that's a bit much, I'm gonna need you to either re-roll or subtract 5 from any four of those." I thought he was joking and didn't say anything, and the other players spoke up and questioned him and he was serious. This caused them to get upset on my behalf and were arguing that I rolled the stats, there was nothing unfair about it and there's no reason that I should be punished just because I rolled well. In the end, the DM refused to relent and the players ended up leaving. I'm currently playing a campaign with one of them DMing, even got to keep those stats, and the other players from that campaign also left the other and joined this one. They've since said that this was the first time they'd ever had a problem with him, and normally he was great. I felt a little bad that this DM lost his players over one incident, but I got over it pretty quickly. Don't have rolled stats if you can't handle players getting high stats.

I honestly still use paper characters sheets. It's just more fun to have physical things 4 me ig. Come to think of it, I always get the physical copies of the books too.

[@wumpusrat]

I had an "the overpowered" character in one game. We were all rolling stats in front of each other (so no cheating, even), and I ended up rolling 18 17 17 16 16 13. Ended up making her a paladin, with her 13 in dexterity. Her crippling weakness was that she was only slightly above average in nimbleness. :) She ended up dying at level 6 saving the rest of the party.

[@lyebatenkaitosofgluttony2452]

I usually put my lowest score in intelligence unless im the partys genius. Its not really as useful as the other scores, as the only things that really require it are saving throws against mind flayers shit and stuff like history. Literally every other saving throw and ability check is a lot more common Because of this i often end up playing characters that are about as smart as dolphins, but at least they stay alive

[@An_Average_Idiot]

That was a death flag already. Dont ya know that in a story, the strongest character has to die to save their friends at least once?

[@baalzamon6187]

i once had a half orc fighter with 20 str 18 dex and con 16 cha and wis and 7 int, we also rolled infront of eachother so no cheating there. it's also how i discovered my curse, anytime i roll good stats for a character, the campaign falls through

[@chieuleyang6768]

How are people normally supposed to play DnD? Whenever I play dnd I always seem to die at least once a session, usually much more and the DM just made up a rule that whenever we die we resplendent later that day and get a random death effect as punishment

Fun fact: My grandma divorced twice before meeting her permant husband. All of the men she divorced remarried. I have 4 grandmas and 4 grandpas to match. My great grandma is also still alive. Also, one of my unlces is only 6 years older than me.

As someone who is starting their first campaign, I can definitely relate to ‘the newbie’ part

[@phelixstragus7841]

I started mine about a couple months ago so i still fall under it too. I got thrown right into it. Been enjoying playing a barbarian. And I have another character from a new which is the complete opposite of the first one. Whiplash for roleplay is very strong for me.

[@KaylaPearlCPNinja]

I have yet to start my first campaign.

[@moonlordkiller9167]

@One Shot Quips I dm a group in a pretty decent campaign. This sums us all up. One who is "The Old Fashioned" thinks that everyone should use paper and not D&D beyond. He also is "The Role Player" always worrying about acting the same as he should in places such as doing the same cultural things. One who is "The One Who Always Cancels". I have hosted 4 sessions so far and he says he will come, but never shows up saying "I slept in." or "Oh I went on a vacation to another city." (actually happened, but for obvious reasons, the last one was changed up slightly [city names/me being too cautious]). I might boot him if he doesn't show up for the next one which he also agreed to. One who is "The Rules Lawyer" that always calls me out on things I changed for somewhat obvious reasons. He is also the "Too Many Characters" that always wants to somehow play two at once and has at least three backup characters. (He also wants me to commit TPK, that will only happen if the players do dumb things such as not running from a beholder when they are at low level.) Lastly, he also is "The Too Literal One". Also he is the "Thats What My Character Would Do" and finally lastly "The Role Player" he has came dressed in costumes before. One who is "The Over Powered" somehow manages to stay 1 level above everyone else at all times. (I don't give him extra xp) One who is "The Newbie" that never talks. Then there is me who is and will forever will be "The Forever Dm", "The Overly Prepared", and "The Dice Goblin" (I am just trying to be nice. Also me hoarding 1...2...3 [a few hours later] 204 dice. That is actually how many dice I have.)

[@QueerArtistInTheCorner]

The too many characters one reminds me of someone. I was playing a Druid and was the main healing person. I had just learnt a necromancy spell to bring people back from the dead. But the person said that if it ever comes down to them dying just don’t do anything because they we’re going to just use a different character.

[@lemmetalkaboutthis]

We had a session with a few newbies, and when one of the characters died we went outside and burned the sheet ... Much to the confusion and disbelief of the newbies, who have never heard of this tradition, and didn't think we were being literal, let alone serious, when we said "well, into the fire it goes"

I haven't played D&D since 3.5e back in high school. But I started looking into again recently and purchased 2 new sets of dice separate from the Essentials Kit I got. One of the sets is 15 Different Dice it has: d100, d60, d30, d24, d20, d16, d12, d10, d8, d7, d6, d5, d4, d3(I think that's what it is), and a percentile die. The other set is a metal dice set of: d20, d12, d10, d8, d6, d4, and a percentile die. Am I a Dice Goblin yet? (Edit) I unfortunately don't have a group to play with:( But have created 12 different lvl 1 characters in case I found a group.

Would it not be typical for an adventurer to carry a book that details the general details of the monsters they may encounter? For example, in real life, we have books about identifying various animals. Edit: For correct balancing, my DM made this book weigh 20kg and only make complete sense to players with 18 intelligence. Edit 2: An example in popular media is the _Monster Book of Monsters_ from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
