Dare to DM

It is of course funny to imagine your old-school D&D 1st-level Magic-User as a sagely old wizard (setting aside the fact that Wizard is a level title for a high-level Magic-User) but it's one of those things where the fiction and mechanics don't quite meet; your awesome ancient bearded dude has spent the better part of his life studying magic and has learned to cast magic missile once a day.

"Star Trek: Deep Space Nine functions as a refutation of the utopianism of The Next Generation because it highlights the moral compromises captains need to make to do their jobs" no, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine functions as a refutation of the utopianism of The Next Generation because every time some existentially horrifying shit happens to Miles O'Brien he's still expected to show up for work the next day.

adult friendships are so dumb like yeah i think i can find a time to hang. how’s february 17th at 4pm

Gonna be honest a lot of people deep down view cheating as worse than abuse which is why so many people view downright controlling and manipulative behavior in a relationship as 100% permissible so long as that behavior is centered around either preventing or discovering cheating.

honestly my favorite thing about hardison is that he has no real tragic backstory, he's just like "i am very smart and therefore i should be allowed to do crime" and he's entirely correct

i love everyone reblogging this going "yeah! soft boy!" in the tags bc that's my other favorite thing about hardison (i have many) and that's that he's never particularly treated as morally grey bc he is constantly so kind and loving and good and also he enjoys some crime

oh man the painting on this drawing is insa- fuck do you mean #minecraft build

Sometimes having an OC is like "this character is an outlet for my insecurity and trauma" and sometimes it's like "this character is an outlet for my love of vampires :)". Sometimes it's both

Sometimes you think it's "this character is an outlet for my love and nothing more :)" and then you look it over later like "shit. product of the deepest depths of my soul again"

do not go gentle into that good night

be a bit of a bitch about it

I totally understand why, of all the playable species first introduced in the Planescape campaign setting, tieflings would be the one to make the jump to the D&D core, but sometimes I like to imagine the world where it had been rogue modrons instead. The standard D&D species are humans, elves, dwarves, hobbits, and cubes.
