That... could be very interesting...

Hell yeah! I like the sound of that! Good on you!

Hell yeah. Honestly, I probably learned half of the big lessons in my first playthrough from a box set.

Sometimes, the messes are beautiful, though...

I got more wrong than right the first game I ran. Still love the memories.

Hey all, it's #TTRPGTuesday...

So tell me a story about your first game.

The ones that got you into the hobby. What was it like?

Is this based off the 3.5e beguiler? I love that class!

⚠️ PSA ⚠️

Alaska just got seriously fucked up by Typhoon Halong.

Entire towns were destroyed. And winter is coming fast.

Winters in #Alaska are long and cold as fuck...

If you have something to spare, they could seriously use the help.

Please, do what you can...

Here's how you can help survivors of the Western Alaska storm
The remnants of Typhoon Halong have killed one person, left two missing, displaced hundreds and destroyed or damaged dozens of homes.

We write alt. If it's good is debatable, I suppose, lol.

But we're always open to suggestions. 😀

There are tons of folks now without homes, and winter is coming fast.

Times are tough, but if you have something to spare, they could seriously use the help.

I'm not alone in my weirdness!!!

In the longest campaign I've ever ran, there was a beloved shifter NPC.

Long story short, he fervently claimed werepoodles didn't exist.

Later, one was introduced...

I just saw a clip from "100% Wolf," in which the werewolf kid turns out to be a werepoodle! #DnD

Funnily enough, as it turns out...

Someone already used aardgnoll for something different.

It was in a popular YouTube video (28k views) a couple months ago.

So, I reverted back to my original names for them for this post, lol.

Mighty tough kobolds, lol.

Seriously though, they still have more in common with basic gnolls than they do with kobolds or goblins.

Both mechanically and flavor wise.

The tyrant Drumph, a sentient shitgibbon, is devastating a nation.

A call for heroes has gone out across the realm. Heroes like you.

The only way to defeat his evil is by standing united against it.

Answer the call. Join the "No Kings II" campaign in person, 10/18/2025.

There's a small Gnoll variant I use sometimes. I call them Yaplings.

I start with regular Gnoll stats, but then:

• Change their size to small.
• Swap Rampage for Pack Tactics.
• Give them proficiency in stealth.

Like chihuahuas. They're a lot of fun in little packages.

I'm the same way. My "primary" tastes run a little lighter than yours. But I like it all.
unrulyarcana.bsky.social
Hell yeah. That's a heavy list, lol.
unrulyarcana.bsky.social
I know about half of those, lol.

You're a man of many layers, and I dig it!
unrulyarcana.bsky.social
Ok, now I have some artists to look up! Lol. I dig the two I'm familiar with, though!
unrulyarcana.bsky.social
Great list! Though I admit there's a few on it I'm not familiar with.

Nothing wrong with a little synth love 😆
unrulyarcana.bsky.social
Definitely a banger!

And I can understand being hesitant. Judgemental people suck.
