CHARACTER CONCEPT
I heard once that a good answer to one of the wishes that a genie grants should be that every time you place your hand in your pocket you have exactly the right amount of money to pay for something.
Great idea, but make it a warlock.
This patron's pact has allowed the Warlock to place their hand in their pocket to get exactly what they need for any given situation. However, the warlock didn't stipulate in the contract with their patron who it was that decided what it is that the warlock needs.
So, the patron decides. Obviously the patron wouldn't want their warlock to die, but what they think they need may vary greatly from what the warlock believes they need at the moment. Definitely would have to limit it per day or make it mainly hinge during roleplay and definitely require a roll of some kind (arcana? religion? straight rizz?), unless narratively important. Could be a great mechanic to help move story along.
Some examples: the warlock is interacting with an orphan who needs special medicine or they will die. The warlock, being kind and good, reaches into their pocket calling on their patron to help. Instead, they find a magic dagger instead. The child is a shapeshifter and out to assassinate them (the patron protec).
The warlock is attempting to persuade a guard to let them pass into the city by producing forged documents but instead produces a wanted portrait of themselves. Their patron is upset at them because they didn't talk to them that morning and the crime will only set them back some gold (the patron attac).

I’m a bit Critical Role fan, so of course I’ve been following the new Daggerheart TTRPG system. My most recent rabbit hole I went down is around the dice mechanics in Daggerheart. Now hang on tight, because this is about to get real nerdy real quick…
So, Daggerheart uses a 2d12 system (two 12-sided dice). Anytime a character wants to do something that has a chance of failure (attack an enemy, climb a tree, avoid a trap, etc)., the player rolls 2d12. If the total number is above a certain threshold, the character succeeds.
Now, I like 2d12 compared to Dungeons & Dragon’s d20 system (one 20-sided die) because the results of 2d12 rolls are on a bell curve:
Tumblr media
whereas the results of 1d20 rolls are completely random:
Tumblr media
This means players are more likely to roll mid-range numbers on 2d12, and the extremely high or extremely low rolls are more rare. That’s the one problem I have with the 2d12 system. Critical successes (rolling a 24) and critical failures (rolling a 2) are a lot of fun in the game, and I miss the thrill.
In a d20 system like D&D uses, the chance of a critical success or critical failure is 5%. In a 2d12 system like Daggerheart uses, the chance of a critical success or critical failure drops to less than 1%. Daggerheart implemented an advantage system where you essentially roll 3d12 and choose the two highest results to add together for your total roll. (There’s a little more to it than that, but for the purposes of this example it doesn’t super matter).
This advantage system does indeed make your chances of rolling high much greater, but the chance of rolling a critical success stays the same. 
Tumblr media
I do think critical success and failures in the D&D system are slightly too frequent, making them less impactful, so ideally I’d love to land these numbers around 3% of rolls. But how do I do that without doing a bunch of math or rolling a handful of dice?
Here’s the system I came up with…
I’ll give advantage and disadvantage to players more frequently in my games (about 20 times a session, compared to our normal 5 times). When a player gets advantage, they’ll roll 4d12 and take the two highest results. What you end up with is an increased chance of rolling high numbers AND the chance of rolling a critical success goes up to 4%.
This means about once a session a critical success or critical hit will occur! I get the best of both worlds, and my players don’t have to do a whole bunch of math in the middle of big story beats.
P.S. This dice calculator is a lot of fun if you want to poke around at numbers: https://dice.clockworkmod.com

A commission I finished for a client late last year. This is Elion Wintermoon, College of Creation bard, famous with men and women all along the Sword Coast for his various talents (musical and otherwise). He was a blast to draw, from the pose to the makeup.

NPC IDEA: Selfless Immortal
Picture this, an NPC who is granted eternal life by a god and they cannot be killed. The NPC does the stuff you do when you're immortal first: drink, fuck, and be merry. But, as tends to be the case with such beings, the enormity of their aloneness begins to creep up on them.
Turning over a new leaf, they decide to sacrifice themselves for people. Maybe this is for several different people who are about to be sacrificed for a bountiful harvest, maybe this is for someone they find who was falsely accused of a murder, whatever the situation is - they keep dying for people. I specifically think it would be an interesting D&D gig if they were repeatedly sacrificed for a town that required blood every year and it was the towns secret to escape a curse. Idk, maybe your party can learn something.
Bonus is, they can't murder hobo the person.
