Sorry for month long disappearance, very busy.

More dnd stories coming whenever im not tired and its not today and i remember-

Here is "meme art of my fursona cus i was getting my friend to read my latest hyperfixation" for your troubles

[isa-the-trans-dragon]

forgot a couple things

so, I had asked one of my players for a random emotion, they said depression, little did they know, it was for another player's cursed scroll of calm emotions, which he used, depressing everyone EXCEPT our angry party member we wanted to use it on-

Oh, also T's cursed boots got fixed before they could do any permanent things (such as polymorph him into a bnuuy).

Aside from that, Yew accidentally summoned like 3 different encounters and has been put on a leash at all times

Think I forgor, Ivan (Kng of thieves) reappeared for boss fight 2, undead boogaloo, and actually scarily did really well against the 4 of them (gumgum kids didn't grow up by then)

Unfortunately, all my players have a shit ton of op stuff now, so, they can kinda casually deal with cr 11 encounters at level 7. Ik, cus I tried to send something they shouldnt be able to beat to force a retreat, and they beat it, effortlessly. Partially my fault for giving them the stuff I did.

Did I mention T can jump 63 ft in the air from one high jump, or 150 ft forward from one long jump?

nvm i lied, posting the dnd stories now

so like, quick recap, last we left off, we got the cast of: T the Amnesiac Human Fighter (Now wields scythe with added poison), Gumgum the Craftsman Goomba (Who now has a crossbow that is pretty much just a gun), Link the Cat Alchemist (Is still as op as they always were), Wessly the Human Druid who speaks like Shaggy, Yew the Deer Sorcerer, and Aster, Yew's conjured Elk familiar.

Among the next few sessions, Gumgum raised Gumgumgum and Gumgum Jr. (Or ggg and jr. for short), and Ggg became a Gunslinger while Jr became a Warlock. Meanwhile, me, the dm, being like "yOU GAVE YOUR KID A GUN AND LET THE OTHER FORM A CULT???". Honestly, Gumgum best parent-

The party began making a town cus they were wanted for the alchemist's antics causing actual crimes in the main town, so, pretty great.

Townbuilding was alright, let them roll to get random npcs, basically had a whole 2 sessions total of animal crossing in dnd (wanted by the players). Basically, references to old characters and dumb concepts, like Nyello the dragon scholar. Anyways, basically: The new npcs start in tents, and they can spend time and money upgrading them for better stuff or abilities. Gumgum built a tavern he plans to run (so, not only does he endanger his kids, but he builds a place to sell alcohol. Dad of the year-)

Oh, side bit of lore, goombas grow up fast in this world, so, the goomba kids went from babi to kid in a few days.

Anyways, party fought pirates, recruited this pirate captain npc after killing his crew that totally won't mutiny, befriended a fire elemental that totally won't hunt them down when their supply of wood is gone, fought necromancers and a skeletal giant, met a golem ghost and her archer wife, and fought a terrifying killer boss. Oh, and befriended this guy named Josh. He's chill.

Party is now level 7 btw, this happened over like 6 sessions-

oh naur, more dnd

Alright. So, the gange fought el bosso. To remind you who we got, it's Yew the Silent Deer Sorcerer, Wessly the Perceptive Human Druid, Link the Problematic Cat Alchemist, T the Amnesiac Human Fighter, and Gumgum the Gay Goomba Craftsman. (He jokingly rolled for "Homosexuality" and rolled a nat 20). The boss was Ivan, the King of Thieves, and his 2 bandit captains.

So, the enemy plan: Toss burning barrels of oil at the party from the safety of their room

The party: *sets all the barrels on fire at once, causing an explosion onto the enemy*

Well, uh... shit, 8d6 fire damage ig. Alllright, that's fine, Ivan is strong.

2 attacks, +8 to hit, 1d8+5+con save against poisoned condition and 2d8 poison damage or extra 2d8 poison damage if already poisoned, +4d6 sneak attack once per turn-

Which, yes, is a lot, but to be fair, after the fireball its basically 5v1.5, so, the party beat him to a pulp immediately, which he then used his cloak of the mountebank to leave the area cus he want live and not die.

After that, the party got LOT of loot cus these bandits were actually somewhat rich. What can I say, banditing pays well. For the leader, i mean-

3 chests of gold and items, a bit of rare items and cool ass items. Specifically avoiding giving them a bag of holding, though. They all dumped strength, now they suffer in low carrying capacity-

Anyways, Amnesiac fighter got cursed boots and a nice rope of climbing, Troublesome Alchemist got headband of smarts and became dumbn't, also got a cool item, All-seeing Druid got Heward's Handy Spice Pouch, Storm Boomerang, and Nature's Mantle, Gumgum got Flametongue... dagger, +1 Longsword, and a Tankard of Plenty. Yew is my dmpc and I don't want them to hog magic items, so, they were fine with no items, but did get 2 heal potions.

So, Gumgum bought like 2 cursed items that I forgot from a cursed item seller and also managed to get Gauntlets of Ogre Power for basically 99% off, Link got a cursed wand of fear, and Wessly got a cursed wand of magic missile and an uncursed moon sickle, Yew bought a wand of winter that didn't actually get a curse-

T didn't buy anything

Link pissed off some party members, had a talk with T after injecting them with a Truth Serum which revealed a lot of surprising info from both, and then made dinner alongside Wessly. Yew just sat with their Deer familiar by a lake, and contemplated their new party.

Link talked with the demon he works for, and Wessly got a sending stone to talk with an NPC. Party leveled up to 5 and rested.

Gumgum finally grew to 2 mini goombas. Goombi? Goomba's? Geemba?-

Because mushroom logic. (Woo, we got Gumgumgum and Gumgum jr.)

Oh, and T's cursed boots are slowly turning him into Bnuuy.

...More on Thursday, maybe!

Alas, Chrome lost another soldier.

It hasn't been the same since Microsoft Edge poisoned Windows Explorer.

But war everchanges, Firefox grows furthermore.

The rapid attacks from Opera GX can only be held at bay for so long.

(Idk my brain just started typing things and now here we are, creating lore for web browsers)

finally bit the bullet and swapped from chrome to firefox because like. chrome updated and my adblock scripts just completely broke. youtube was unusable

MORE DND STUFF!1!11!

So, there's a session today where my players basically get cool loot from beating a boss, but rn I only have stories from before the boss.

Right after the Mantrap Encounter, my party found a camp made by former bandits. I was curious how my players would take that, but they were really chill with the level 11 former criminal overlord-

Either way, players did some shopping and snooping around for info, The Alchemist tried to shove a potion down Gumgum the Goomba's throat, but missed, we got a map to the bandit camp they were heading to, got ambushed by Spies working for an evil guild trying to kill the bandit leader, and the Alchemist went feral because he used an item too much (He has a strange crystal that allows him to add cool abilities, but affects him horribly.... so basically drugs-). He also nearly died because his second ability doubles his damage but makes him vulnerable to all damage, and stuns him for 1 round once it ends. He had 21 hp and 3 temp hp, and took 26 damage and then 2 failed death saves. Luckily, I was able to heal them.

The party defeated the spies, and tension grew between Link the Alchemist, and everyone else. We ended there and everyone leveled.

oh and Gumgum fixed an armor set and now wears heavy armor-

Goomba in heavy armor-

The next session, the party picked 4 members of the Former Bandits to take with them to assault this large bandit group. Wasn't a long session, not much to say. Party went in the camp with a plan - Moonbeam. That was the plan. Well, it worked, let me tell you. It worked. They took out the ballista before he could fire, took out the guards keeping watch, and had a very easy time with the rest. Before the party entered the final tent, its tenants through an oil barrel at them and lit it on fire. We had to stop there due to time, but the boss battle will be interesting.

Our amnesiac fighter may have remembered something.

My mutual hasn't responded so im sending this back into the world

More dnd news!

Instead of sleeping like a responsible person, we're gonna be posting 2 whole dnd stories!

So, for starters, we got a cursed item seller

His name is Shkam, and he's literally stolen from a game I played, and other than that he had a curse on him that basically possessed him, one party member removed his agony temporarily but took psychic damage, finally used his Cool Ability, and fixed Shkam temporarily. He sold the party some totally-not-cursed magic items (Gumgum now has a greatclub, watch out), and the party collected their reward from the Guards.

One party member violently interrogated 2 innocent graverobbing goblins in a very similar style to the "NOOOOO DONT KILL ME IM JUST A WITTLE GOBLIN NOOOOO" meme, learnt No valuable information cus they didn't ask the right questions, nearly blew up the place, and caused a maybe enemies-to-lovers trope to start happening between the fighter and alchemist?-

The party then rolled a deadly encounter on travel dice and fought a homebrewed Mantrap somewhat based on the fairy lure mantrap from critical role, fought the now zombified bandits from their first ever encounter, and bought some shtuff in town. Gumgum learnt the trade of Blacksmithing and began fixing a cool armor set he found.

Ended around there, tl;dr, cursed item seller, cursed item sold, violent interrogation, romance, deadly encounter, goomba

BUT THERE'S MORE!!

For but a few hours ago, I had finished session 0 of a gritty campaign i began dming for my dnd veteran father, uncle, older brother, and cousins. (Multiple people, not one person)

And by gritty, they're first 2 encounters were CR 3 CREATURES. CUS GOD DAMN THIS CAMPAIGN BOOK WANTS THEM DEAD

The best part? Minimal injury. No death. One even had surprise and lost. At level 1.

AT LEVEL 1.

Im honestly terrified, this book might not be enough to challenge them-

[isa-the-trans-dragon]
