Misogyny and Queerphobia in the D&D community

So ive recently been listening to a lot of D&D reddit horror stories and some of them ive listened to have a focus on how theres either a queerphobic or misogynist That GuyTM, that's either another player or a shitty DM.

Soooooo because of that I wanted to come here and ask, ¿what's some of your experiences with these issues in D&D and the online D&D community?

Prompt 212

“Did we just pull an Isekai?” 

“I mean, does it count if it’s practically just Ghostwriter’s usual shit, just more chaotic?” 

“Sam, this is like a game, look, we even have inventory overlays!” 

“Yeah but Tuck, I died so therefor I pulled an isekai, right?” 

“Shit, why does that make sense?” 

“Boys, perhaps actually look into your overlay there? Perhaps look at the map as well?” 

“... oh my Ancients, guys, we’re not the players, we’re going to be the bosses of this game.”

. . . 

“This is going to be so much fun guys.” 

The JL Jr team would really like it to be known that they are in fact done with Klarions shenanigans. This is literally the first day school is out for the summer for them! Who even showed him DnD and anime anyway?!

Tav: Hey, Astarion? Can I ask you something?

Astarion: Of course, my sweet. What is it?

Tav: Well, just out of curiosity, if you’re not able to see your reflection in a mirror, then how do you do your hair so perfectly?

Astarion: *lightly scoffs in amusement* Practice makes perfect, I suppose. Why do you ask? Looking for some tips for your beauty routine?

Tav: *blushes in embarrassment* N-no, nothing like that. I was just wondering how you do it because it always looks so nice.

Astarion: *genuinely confused but flattered* You think my hair looks nice?

Až teď mi došlo že jsem tohle nikdy nedala do samostatného příspěvku takže to nebylo dohledatelné pokud člověk opravdu nevěděl kde hledat, takže tady je to znovu, čumblérovské Uložto 2.0 <3

Thinking about how much fun it would be to have Flowey DM a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Technically the vote's not done yet, but quite a few people have expressed interest in seeing the Undertale gang play D&D, so I've been reading up on the rules, working on a cohesive art style, creating characters and so on.

Like, I homebrewed a "living skeleton" species modifier so Sans and Papyrus can play skeletons that aren't as weak as the enemy skeletons, and they can choose a species from the player's handbook because Papyrus likes the human +1 for every ability, while Sans is partial to the halfling "lucky" trait, but they also get unique weaknesses and strengths because they are also skeletons.

I wish I was better at drawing maps though...

Based on absolutely nothing at all, these are the d&d classes I think the Crows would play.

Kaz is the DM, but I feel like he'd also play Rogue

Matthias: oathbreaker paladin- I think it fits his character

Inej: Rogue. She is very, very good at rolling NAT 20s on sneak attacks

Jesper: bard, but he spends most of the campaign rolling charisma checks to flirt with Wylan's character. Either that or a ranger, for obvious gun related reasons

Nina: A wizard who goes down the necromancy path, but she gave herself a high charisma so she can also have her character flirt with Matthias's

Wylan: with Wylan, I'm torn between Artificer, which would suit canon, or Wizard because I think he'd absolutely love casting fireball

Do you think dragons sometimes go to pick up their kobolds and then they do that looooooong cat thing?

[sdwajones-art]

This post I made months ago was flagged as "Mature Content", and I'm confused as to why?

Does anybody know more about Tumblr's method for deciding if a post should be flagged? Like whether someone has to manually flag posts as inappropriate or if it's done by an AI maybe? I can't really see why this would be seen as inappropriate by a real human person....

A little question [look under the cut]

Hello everyone!

I'm planning to make Kasane Teto's stat block in Dungeons And Dragons!

Are you interested that I upload it in public?

I also make the poll on Twitter, don't vote here if you voted there!

[She'll have a challenge rating of 30]

[For the time of the poll, this post will be pinned on my profile]

Late night scribble featuring Edgar.

[mystxmomo]

This might be a slightly nebulous one but: If Enclave had the opportunity to speak 'directly' to Lolth in the way she does Vhaeraun, how do you reckon that would go? Would something like that even happen?

So. I had some thoughts with this question.

It would depend on the period of her life she's in.

Enclave "<200" has a much different personality than Enclave after she joins Vhaeraun's church, because the kind of people that occupy his church (And frankly, the kind of god HE is) heavily influences the person she becomes (And there-for, the type of person to talk to divinity with that much audacity.)

But also, I don't think Enclave is stupid. Talking to Vhaeraun like she does is calculated (In that she knows it's something he finds funny.) Compared to Lolth who wants control and to be feared.

AND If she had stuck with Lolth and stayed a Priestess of Lolth? She wouldn't have ended up with the kind of personality that allowed her to feel emboldened enough to speak to divinity like that at all. Honestly, my overarching thought about the person she'd become if she stayed with Lolth is "This is a woman who would have ended up dead/cannibalized by the system she serves." This is someone that drow society is designed to fail, y'know? She doesn't LIKE unpredictability and chaos, she wants order. And a very nice list of things she can complete.

However, if we're talking Enclave at like. 500. As she is now in the current, as a cleric of Vhaeraun, Post-Everything? Yeah she has nothing to lose. She'd get smited by the spider god, she's not winning that fight. But she'd cuss her out. She doesn't have to be on good terms with her.

It makes me smile to know when things get hard

Ooh, you'll be far

Ooh, you'll be far from here

And while I clean shit up in the yard

Ooh, you'll be far
