Many folks hate 5E's "death saves," preferring "0 HP = dead." But honestly I've always thought death saves make sense. People can linger for minutes, hours, even days with lethal injuries before dying. It's the rate of recovery and lack of consequence that's the issue, imo. #dnd

In Aeres, our dignified and upstanding rats are heroes, brigands, adventurers, priests, bards, barmaids, magicians, and everything in-between. And yes, you can play as them. Amazing art by @sneakygnida #dnd #worldbuilding #anthroart #ratfolk #redwall

I figured we're close enough, so until Friday, I've made our Wilderkind book free on DriveThruRPG! This is our newest book, for Castles & Crusades. We wanted to expand our Redwall-like character options and make them palatable to old-school DMs and players. Link below! #ttrpgs

I know D&D is infamous for devolving into ridiculous situations, silliness, and shenanigans, but did you ever successfully run a campaign that was serious and gripping from beginning to end? Maybe with only light humor here and there? Were the players into it? #dnd #ttrpgs

I'm following 1300 TTRPG people, but I don't feel like a "member" of the D&D community. I feel like an outsider. I don't buy products, invest in Kickstarters, do Roll20, or post on forums. Maybe I should, but its tough. I'm all bottled up. So I'm sorry. :( #ttrpgsolidarity

I don't believe it's possible to have a suitable Tolkien-like D&D campaign without modifying the game heavily. This goes for 1E as much as 5E. Magic must be limited. Races, limited. Classes, limited. Tolkien was low magic, high fantasy. #dnd #osr #ttrpgs

If asked what "species" they are, a wilderkind of Aeres would cock their head in confusion. They prefer to be called "beasts," and it's perfectly polite to ask what type of beast they are; yet they're all of the same race, the race of the World Tree whose magic gave them birth.

I'm pretty okay with 5E's rules, but as I continue writing adventures, I'm starting to get annoyed with 5E's "social skills." Things like persuasion and intimidation used to be roleplaying opportunities between players and DMs, not just dice rolls. That's the easy way out. #dnd

Why does old-school D&D art seem more appealing than modern 3E+ D&D art? I think it has to do with the fact that it seems historical. Not accurate of course, but the kind of verisimilitude one might expect from say, Tolkien. This grants it authenticity and charm. 1/2 #dnd #osr

Depictions of D&D in pop culture almost always keep it to 3 players and 1 DM. Some lovingly, some stupidly. But to be honest, this is my perfect table. A table has 4 sides: 3 players, 1 DM. A solid party mix. Anything less is inadequate; anything more, tedious. Just me though!

When someone asks, "what are you favorite fantasy movies," I don't know why, but the LOTR trilogy and Harry Potter never come to mind. I guess because they don't stand alone. I always think of the Dark Crystal, Willow, the Princess Bride, Conan the Barbarian, etc.

Deep in an enchanted forest, the animal folk, who in Aeres are called wilderkind, gather at an old abandoned abbey, once dedicated to the Lord of Beasts in some bygone time. Now it's an oasis in the woodland for gladefolk of all kinds. Art by Max Wilson #dnd #redwall #fantasyart

World map I drew for our D&D campaign. Aeres wasn't something I just vomited onto paper, it's always been a campaign with real players who shaped the fate of the world as I know it! #dnd #worldbuilding #ttrpgs

It's been nearly 2k followers later since I posted this, so I figure it can stand a second run. This is the Aeres world map I drew for our campaign, which a version of made its way into our book. I'm not an artist by any means but I'm proud of it! Micron 05s used. #dnd #ttrpgs

“We really wanted to reinforce that all of the game’s races are just as flexible as humans when it comes to the range of culture and personality,” Jeremy Crawford said, in reference to Monsters of the Multiverse. In other words, they're just re-skinned humans. #dnd #ttrpgs

There will never be another fantasy movie like this. The Netflix sequel was good, but more streamlined and coherent, Hollywood-like. Jim Henson knew: a fairy tale is both dream and vision, ephemeral and strange but familiar, plucking at the harp-strings of the human experience.

Aeres was not originally about animal-folk or "beastfolk." It wasn't our intention and in fact, they're a much smaller part of our core setting than the other races. Humans are #1 . But, we lean into it, because of their uniqueness and roleplaying opportunities. #dnd #ttrpgs

Short Rest healing is the worst rule in 5E, even worse than death saves. I believe my players agree. Yes, I could simply hand-wave it and say "you can't rest here," or I could homebrew it away. But playing 5E RAW, it killed all sense of tension in our last session. #dnd

Guys. My account was compromised while I was asleep. I'm not a bot. You don't have to unfollow me. Just don't click the fake links that the hijacker sent. Sorry all this happened! Major, major pain in my ass.
