im back on my mememaking bullshit everybody!

Okay so, here’s some random 4am rambling

Most of you probably know I DM a game. I have been doing so for over a year and +52 sessions, which is quite a bit! I have three players. And, I’ll be entirely honest: I haven’t ever given Inspiration to my players.

Not because I don’t feel they don’t deserve it, but mostly, because I don’t feel like I’m the one who can judge when do they deserve it. Maybe it comes from being quite burned from a past game, where my True Neutral character was slowly growing into Neutral Good, but made a decision (running away (to find help) instead of getting captured with the rest of the group), and the DM heavily punished me for it, saying I wasn’t being true to a Neutral Good character. I got the XP from that session cut in half, which set me even further behind to the rest of the party.

And ever since, I feel like I can’t be the jury on whether someone RP’d their character properly, so I don’t feel comfortable handing Inspiration on that basis. I even suggested my players for them to be able to give it to each other, but they didn’t really feel like doing so either. 

You get inspiration by

Making a really good joke that makes me laugh hard, or the entire table laugh

Doing something REALLY cool in the game

Leveling up

Having a bad day, and having really bad rolls

Developing a plan with the rest of the party, and have it work

(This is just a rough idea, so it may not be 100% balanced. Change as you wish) Forceful Casting is the idea of forcing the magic that you can harness to a dangerous degree, and releasing it into one beefed up attack. This can be used as a last ditch effort to kill something before it kills you, a way to help your party survive before you end up dying, or to help get rid of your character in a cool manner so you can play your backup character!
