Dungeons and Dragons discussion

talk about his world here

This campaign is based on a playlist of songs I've compiled.

Can you link the playlist?

That would be spoilers, as I'm loosely interpreting lyrics for events and encounters. I'm going to award inspiration if you can guess the song the encounter is based on.

Lol fair what ever are you thinking? Can I use titus?

Yeah, absolutely. Though you did post a character already.

Oh my bad haha

Oh shoot I’ll reply on my lunch. My bad I must have lost track of your campaign

((How long should I wait for you guys before I respond?))

((Id recommend a nudge then 24 hours after the nudge.))

As for character i dont really know how much you want us to make up lore for your world?

Like in my real life dnd campaign. I had a village if werewolves that was not found on a map because they wanted to be hidden and someone pointed out that means they dont pay taxes. So forever more in my local dnd group werewolves were also libertarian. So we had a joke that you could feel your politics change as you were bit and slowly turning into a werewolf.

Just not sure if you want me to be like oh yeah im trying to for example the eldar scroll? Or if i should wait for you to present thongs to me.

99% of my roleplay style is improv and I've made lore decisions based on inside jokes and off hand comments regularly. For example, my real life players couldn't remember a character's name after he was just introduced, and continued to mispronounce it, so I said, "Okay. There's a lore reason for this. It just won't stick. Even when you can remember his name, there's a chance he may not answer to it immediately. Unbeknownst to them, he's now one of two people they've met that have lost part of their souls. The other is a sad, alcoholic jester who is their favorite NPC because they find it hilarious how depressed he is. Also the face I do when I voice him and the Lego minifigure I made for him. (Yeah, we use Lego at my table and it's awesome.)

One of my players named his Goliath character Klog and introduced him by saying 'Klog, like the shoe.' His dad was a legendary hero and Klog wants to follow in his footsteps, but so far has only been able to find jobs that have to do with picking flowers.
I introduced a florist shop with more going on than meets the eye just for him. He's also going to meet his brother Krok (also like the shoe), who's voice will be my best impression of Patrick Warburton.

Another player wants to use the Wild Magic table, so I am about to connect her to the Faewild.

The reason for all these anecdotes is to say that I am happy to work with anything you give me.

Ok cool i guess ill let you know of any themes that come to mind
