As it turns out, this comic is a brilliant meme format, and we need to get the ball rolling on this.

When it's your first time playing a wizard

Half-Orc?

Everything is a lie...

I know is probably due to not having "Goblin" as a race in the software.

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Goblin's a race in the software. We own Volo's and Monsters of the Multiverse.

If you look closely at the art, her skintone has changed slightly, her ears are shorter, her teeth are different:

That explains the STR 19 lol

Ah, the “Gauntlets of the Arcane Fist” are gauntlets of ogre power, with a few small extras - reincarnate doesn’t just let you boost stats - or all the cool kids would be doing it

That's a pretty long story, but the half-orc result is from the reincarnate spell and a (lucky??) roll.

Ah, reincarnate ! Should have led with this. A classic case of rerolling your character for a second go at life :)

Lots of spoilers in this image, feel free to ignore. :p

Wow, a 19 in strength?

so strong, so wise

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Her strength is, I think 11? But those "gauntlets of the arcane fist" are gauntlets of ogre power with some extra features. This statline (rolled) is really high even without the 19 strength in there.

Proficiency in intimidation with +7?? That'd be the cutest intimidation of all time

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 2 points 2 years ago

Oh yeah, she got the intimidation proficiency from the half-orc racial package... I think it probably stems entirely from the fact that she's 6'8" now.

[–] sfbing@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Lovely spell.

An alternate version of the meme:

And a blank version:

oh okay yes, that's an excellent format - even better than my suggestion :D

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Me seeing news of Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 ^

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 4 points 2 years ago

I feel the joy there :)

And now we know why Konsi was still a junior priestess :D

I was playing a monk, and we got engaged from afar by a hostile group, including archers. I got wrecked on the approach, and was downed multiple times.

...then after the fight, I realized I had Deflect Missles. :|
