me: tries not to get too excited when describing my dnd character, is aware that i went a bit overboard in designing them, generally wants to play it cool
They met a Demon at a crossroads, he said they had to make a deal with him or he would steal their souls. The Fighter was like, “Hey can you just wait for 5 seconds for me?”
Demon’s like: “Alright.”
Five seconds later the Fighter says “Alright our deal is complete”
???
“What do you mean our deal is complete?” said the Demon
“Well I asked you to wait 5 seconds, then you agreed. Since you waited 5 seconds, that means our deal is complete right?”
The Demon is in shock, and so am I, the DM. This fighter just out-tricked a freakin’ demon deal by telling the demon to cool his heels for a moment I couldn’t believe it.
And this is when the demon decides to becoming a recurring pest to the party, or a legitimate threat
He actually did, he sent a “bounty hunter” chain devil named Gnev after the party.
DM (to our bard): The six cultists shove you to the ground, bow to the massive green dragon, and say, “Oh Great One, we have brought you this gold and this human sacrifice as tribute to your greatness. Please accept our offering.”
Rest of Party, looking on from a distance: Shit. He’s dead. He’s so dead. RIP Edward.
DM: The dragon thanks the cultists and asks if you have any last words.
Bard: I look up at the dragon and say, “I have brought you this gold and these six cultists as tribute to your greatness.”
Rest of Party: OH SHIT!
DM, who was clearly not expecting that: …………roll persuasion.
Bard: 17.
DM: The dragon says, “I like you. Duck.”
Bard: ….I duck?
DM: The dragon incinerates the cultists with his poison breath and leaves you alive, flying off with his treasure.
This is a notebook I made for my bf @a-wandering-intern for Christmas! I’ve been meaning to post this for like months now but I kept not getting around to it. We both play Dungeons and Dragons, he’s DM’ing (for the first time) a campaign I’m in, so I wanted to make him something really cool.
The notebook was inspired by @r-n-w‘s Arcana Note book and printable DM resources, and by bookjournals.com.
The front cover is hand-made, matboard bound in leather, with the words laser-engraved and painted over. The symbol is loosely based on his initials, cut out of brass (in my art metals class at school lol) and glued onto the cover. Inside are pages from the Dungeon Master’s Guide picked for usefulness and for pretty pictures, lined paper for notes, graph paper for maps, and pockets for printed sheets. The back cover is the actual back cover of the DMG (that I had to gut for this project, rip). I had to hand-punch the covers and then I got the whole thing spiral-bound at Office Depot (two days before christmas, thanks to the best customer service I’ve ever had).
The censored link on the dedication page is a link to @r-n-w‘s Game Master kit and character sheet, which I also bought for him to use (and included a little bit of it in the notebook!)
Wow, this is such a cool and thoughtful gift! I love the idea of binding your own customised book this way!
current mood: rolling my polyhedral dice on my desk while scrolling through tumblr wishing there was an easier way to find dnd games to play in than just writing my own gosh-diddily-dang campaign
