Being nice to someone you don't like is not manipulation btw it's being civil

DM Tip #1: Don’t introduce your big head, no thoughts dog to Tiamat.

Dorian: I was ROBBED in the streets, my pockets picked. Do you catch my drift?

Fearne: absolutely. Scamming people here is easy as fuck

[grizzlygeorge]

Dammit, I am a good, caring DM. As evidenced by the very first quote of the session. 😂😂😂

[grizzlygeorge]

I saw this movie in theaters when I was eleven. It’s still fuckin’ perfect, and I’ll throw hands over it any day.

what's so great about the mummy 1999?

are you ready for this? 

it is the most wonderfully made, historically inaccurate, giddily fun, perfectly paced, goofy horror movie romance novel bullshit bonanza that has ever blessed the silver screen.

i mean it is just so beautifully full of every genre without being overwhelming.we’ve got: comedy, action, suspense, horror, romance, adventure, ancient aesthetics, and it’s a period piece. all perfectly balanced and blended into one movie.

and the characters are so LIT

we got our main babe, evelyn “motherfucking” carnahan, a super-klutz librarian, total history nerd, and certified badass/damsel in distress. she raises the dead on accident, because she cannot resist books, and has the guts to put that motherfucker back where he came from and literally saves the world.evie’s greatest hits: 

“what is a place like me, doing in a girl like this?!”

*after totally destroying the library* “i’ve just made a bit of a mess in the library.”

“no harm ever came from reading a book.”

evelyn: *upon opening the tomb* “i’ve dreamt about this since i was a little girl.”rick: “you dream about dead guys?”

“oops.”

then we’ve got rick “brendan fraser” o’connell, your not-so-typical battle hardened gun slinger with a heart of gold. he seems filthy, rude, and a complete scoundrel at first, but then he turns into a literal puppy, with massive heart eyes, that worships the ground evie walks on.rick’s greatest hits:

*screams at mummy*

*screams at sand*

*screams at things that are illogical to scream at*

*screams*

next is our Comedic Relief Character™, jonathan carnahan, who also rises above his trope. he’s there for the laugh sure, but is never useless. he actively helps to move the plot along and isn’t just there. he also is the farthest thing from brainless and annoying.jonathan’s greatest hits:

evelyn: “have you no respect for the dead?”jonathan: “of course i do, but sometimes i’d rather like to join them.” same.

oh and that time he was like “IMHOTEP” and saved his own ass like that was so smooth, y’all know what i’m talking about right??

then there is ardeth BAE. he is the audience rolling his eyes because *sighs* white people. he’s tired of these motherfucking mummies in this motherfucking desert. literally prettier than everyone.(he has a much bigger role in the mummy returns, but is still so fab here)

and of course THE MUMMY. imhotep. actual emo. literally carved some poetry into the back of his sarcophagus when he was buried alive with flesh eating bugs, because he is that Extra™. just wants to bring his girlfriend back to life so he can make out with her without it being treason. 

and all the side characters are also gr8.

now i wanna take a moment to talk about the romance. because it is so BEAUTIFUL. like usually in action movies it’s macho man undermines girl and they bone. not here. no time for that shit. 

rick and evie have such a great relationship based on mutual respect and affection. they both cater to each other’s strengths and cover each other’s weaknesses. they are the literally definition of: “those two. in a fight, they’re lethal. around each other, they melt”

what else, i could literally talk about this movie all day.

the special effects have held up pretty well.the music score is GORGEOUS.the costumes are amazing.the makeup, especially for anck su namun, OH WOW.the george of the jungle era brendan fraser sign me the fuck up.rachel weisz.

so many good things.

it’s just great.

#i secretly rate every action movie from 0 to the mummy

it’s a beautiful mess of a movie that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and transcends time and posterity as the alpha mummy movie, and to those who disagree i beseech you:

I’m running a one-shot for half of my group on Sunday while the other half is away/busy. I asked them to roll up some Level 12 Tabaxi Rogues.

They didn’t question it, but BOY are they gonna be pissed when they realize I’ve designed an entire one shot with them as literal cat burglars. 😹

Creature: Strix from the Great Before

Great Before Collection part 2 of ?

The Great Before Collection is a bundle of primordial and primeval creatures from the time before mankind. These beasts are ancient, and do not follow the laws of creation as they were written after the birth of these beings. There are a multitude of creatures from the Great Before, and when they are all finished, I will be creating a bundle with lore, mechanics and lots of beasts from the Great Before! Stay tuned.

Read the full-page print of the Strix from the Great Before on the Homebrewery here!

👀🎉👏💗👄

Looks like that long awaited NPC/PC romance is finna hit.

First 5 faceless emojis is how your next D&D session is gonna go.

[grizzlygeorge]

Panic. Hoovering. Holy shit, I’m dead.

shout out to the gentleman who, upon receiving a message from his daughter that she's gonna be bringing her mom/his very awkward-status ex to stay with him, and tho only interacting with jester a handful of times, still understood immediately "A h, she means Right Now" and whirled around & yelled at a bar full of his crime guys to start panic-hoovering

“What are you foraging for?” -DM

“Co-caine! Co-caine! Co-caine!” -entire party, chanting in unison

I just... 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[grizzlygeorge]

I have recorded all THIRTY-FIVE sessions of the campaign I’m DMing so I don’t have to take notes while we’re playing (with the intention of listening and taking notes on the session during the week before we play again). I have taken notes for TWELVE of those sessions... but not chronologically. My players have no idea I’m so far behind.

this is a self callout post for dnd players and dms

reblog with why you’re problematic

hi i’m mcelboycontent and i can never remember any place or npc names but i refuse to take notes

[grizzlygeorge]

Yo, it’s me. But mine are British or Appalachian.

In this town you either die Bostonian, or live long enough to become Russian.

-me the DM that can do 2 voices

[grizzlygeorge]

So... most of my party played in person (don’t worry, we all COVID-tested and distanced before and after) for the first time since March 2020. Problem is, none of us having been buying minis since we’ve been playing digitally for almost a year. The result? Mike Wazowski getting up close and personal with Buzz Lightyear.

🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

DM Problem #15:

Your party split themselves through time, and your PCs have had near-death or death experiences every session since; and your job as DM is to come up with increasingly insane ways to revive their level 6 asses in the middle of their first big bad arc.

DM Promblem #87

Remember when I bought Inkarnate to start working on my map skills but my players split the party through time and now I’m too busy prepping and running two sessions every week to even open my browser for anything other than research and world building?

Yeah, me either. 😅😅😅
