Overthink101 said: Oh wow, yeah. That series definitely did make a sharp turn, I had every book at some point(and then got rid of them all because I couldn't keep reading about these kids that are somehow better than the police) Canis Inanis said: Oh, ouch! I'm in a club too, there's like 10 of us, but we're all split up into different campaigns so that wait times aren't too much. The DM told us that she wanted to do a campaign based on the Boxcar Children books (At least in setting) when we first met up. It was actually kind of funny, she said that, and my first response was 'So we're all runaways who go back home within the first two weeks and then go on to solve various mysteries? How's that gonna work?' And she went 'Wait, what?' Turns out she only read the first book, and not the 150-ish ones that came out after it. That series really took a sharp left turn after the first one, lemme tell ya.
I know, right? Dissing the police even before this whole brutality mess. Remember, kiddins, these 17-15-11 (Those were their ages, right? I can't remember) year olds are far more effective than the police at literally everything ever. So if they can do it, so can you!

is it ethical to tell kids to try and fight violence and solve possible murder mysteries themselves- in a DnD world? yeah XD

Don't it just suck when you spill potato chips all over your drawing of your D&D character, and now you have to trace over it on a different paper because the first one got grease-stained?

Why hello there! May I join your chat, my comrades? I've been going crazy wanting to play D&D - I just made nine characters, set up a battle, and did the whole thing with them. It sort of just made me sadder.

Ugh, YES, I made way too many characters during COVID it wasn't even funny. Binders of character sheets. I have a gnome wizard who has an 18 in Intelligence, and his next best is a Strength of 8. Constitution was a goddamn five. I rolled consistently under tens except for ONE value and I wanted a 1e wizard in 5e. And so there sits my eternally-suffering mage, choking on his own blood every time he moves faster than a slow walk.

Golden Corax, what edition and what's the character? I love to hear about people's characters, though nobody in my family likes D&D and sadly I haven't seen my friends in ages. I guess that's partially why I'm glad this club exists. Wow. Now you have to play them - that would be tragically fun, I think. My DM let us reroll if we got anything lower than 9, but somehow I managed to roll below 10 for almost every attack and skill check I made anyway. I had so many nat 1s that I smashed my die and gave it a funeral - it didn't help, though. It could be fun to play a complete wimp and just try to keep them alive - though I guess the rest of the party might not appreciate it :) Edited at September 30, 2021 12:08 PM by Freedom

I'm saving them for a gag campaign. As soon as I'd finished the basics, I just knew that I could only do him justice by making him as utterly baffling and impossible as his stats. The in-game reasoning for his absolutely shit everything-except-brain is that he was cursed to be that way. Y'see, he was BORN as a Gary-Stue. Godly strength, more handsome than an actual love deity, everybody immediately loved him. He was so ridiculously overpowered that extradimentional entities (They had to be outside his own universe otherwise they would have loved him too and done nothing) arranged it so that reality itself was out to get him. It started when he was like four, where everywhere he would go things went wrong. Monster attacks, natural disasters, massive magic accidents, everything. Except because he was a Gary-Stue, he beat everything back and got lauded as a hero for his efforts. As you can guess, being constantly praised for exerting barely any effort had some less than plesant effects on his personality. At first, sure, fighting stuff and saving people was a chalenge, but as he grew (And grew even more powerful) everything started becoming super easy, like 'he's One Punch Man and fighting a single completely normal mouse' levels of easy. So he starts going out of his way to find new things to challenge him, except there's nothing. This continued up until he hit 23, when he decided enough was enough and went TO the omnipotent beings to convince them to stop. EXCEPT, once he left his home universe, his Gary-Stue powers could not follow so he was just a regular gnome. Unknowingly weakened, as soon as he found the things messing with him, they immediately locked all of his Gary-Stue-ness away in a bunch of super powerful magical crystals and scattered those pieces of his power across his home dimension. They left him with his intelligence, though, so he could suffer for his incredible arrogance. So now he's stuck with terrible stats, completely unrecognizable to anyone he knew before, and he has to find all the crystals to regain his previous abilities and apperance.
