Wisdom from the ability check ask meme?

Oh man. So I start with collation of resources, experimentation, and then actually beginning the creation process! For dice palettes and color work, I rely a lot on color theory. When given direction with a few shades, I pull in other colors that relate to, or work well with another color. I’ll pull a few options of dice from my collection and lay them all out over and over before being satisfied! When writing? I go with an idea, research it heavily, and just write. Be that writing my next DnD or backstory for a new character, I spend time pulling together all my resources for writing, every book of PDF or page I’ll need, then I write stuff out in one of my DM notebooks or on google docs, depending on where the information needs to be stored! For my other creative endevors (sewing, wig styling, crochet) I have a similar process. I pull together research on what I want to sew/style/crochet, pull together all the resources I’ll need to make said thing, write out a time line to produce said thing, then actually start the creation process. Suffice it to say: I am a researcher and planner by heart!

Still sick, but back at work. Yay libraries! While I publish a new webpage today and queue up some dice pics, if you feel like sending asks, that’d make this headache of a day go by faster.

1. My favorite character is Ylvi - he is my rogue elf. The campaign I was in with him was great (though left unfinished), and then he became an NPC afterwards in the campaign I just wrapped for my players. Following him, I think Nuha and Jetta are become favorites.

7. My favorite ‘downtime’ activity is talking with townsfolk. Jetta and Nuha both like to go around whatever town they are in and just talk to people to get a lay of the culture and the land. It’s fun!

20. I got into D&D WAY before the renaissance it is going through. I started playing during 3.0, on the eve of 3.5 release. I was 14 and in high school. I played with a bunch of nerdy Mormon boys from the IT and drama clubs I was a member of.

There was still a lot of stigma around it then too. We were the nerds and everyone thought it would make us violent satan worshippers or whatever. We would play at our parents kitchen tables in rural Idaho for a few years and eventually, when my parents realized the Mormon boys were safe for me to be around un-chaperoned, we would play in basements, bedrooms, or more confined spaces. It was a lot of fun! So given that, I’ve been playing for 15 years now and I have loved every minute of it!

Hey are the borealis smoke dice supposed to have rainbow sparkles? And are the real ones only available on one site? Cause I feel like I got fakes

Avatar

Hmmm. Well, old ones are more rainbow, but Chessex actually had to switch their glitter production a few years back. Here’s how it boils down:

1. Chessex was using some cool glitter that was VERY rainbow a few years back.

2. EU currency uses that same glitter. It becomes a controlled substance to prevent counterfitting.

3. Chessex has to find new glitter.So pre-EU currency, all the borealis glitter is VERY rainbow and tends to be bigger. Collectors refer to these as OG (old glitter) Borealis. Post-EU, the borealis line becomes the NG (new glitter) Borealis.

The OG colors are especially sought after because delicious illegal glitter, am I right?The New glitter tends towards green in the smoke borealis. You can get them from Ebay, amazon, lots of places. They’re legit, just different. :) If you want to send a pic I can confirm!

Not dice related but I love lizards and like have seen some here so... What's your favorite lizard? (Rn mine is a leopard gecko since I have one. His name is Kiwi.) 🐝

Oh gosh. You come into this house. My house? And you ask me my favorite lizard?! In this the year of 2019?!

 Honestly, I love them all and I can’t choose and I feel bad choosing because I have 7 and I love them all so, so much (as well as my new fish and frog!) They’re all so great and so cute and so dumb. Literally every lizard ever is perfect!

So I guess: Uh… leopard geckos, bearded dragons, crested geckos, african fat tails and gargoyle gecks are my ‘favorite’ based on just what I keep. But honestly, I just. I love them all. I love going to the zoo and reptile shows and crying at all the lizards I can’t have.

Maybe I should make updated palettes for all my babies >>

In regards to that WW post: I am reading through the supposed proof that WW is alt-right and racist right now and it.... VERY BAD. Like the writer is good, but there are no screen shots the alleged death threats, no actual credible sources linked to it, no links to news or screen caps of the writers liking alt-right shit. Additionally, everything they’re saying is like... hearsay and extrapolation “they used the term triggered and are therefore edgelords and are therefore nazis” or they made a call to action to get their nazi followers to deliberately download trans-inclusive WW products? I dunno. This is just some very badly researched stuff and the academic in me is cringing so hard...

How many dice to you actually have and like, are there any silly stories behind how you acquired them?

Avatar

My partner @exor-schist has made me purchase washi tape boxes from a craftstore to sort them all. I almost need a new one. They said I have a problem. They said I couldnt count them. BUT I HAVE.

ANYWAY! and not counting my jars of dice to give out at cons, or dice in the mail/on the way via kickstarter, I have 2537!! 2537 DICEY BOIS!

And once my best pal @rhymes-with-sky and I were driving from MI to TN (9+ hours), and we stopped at Gamescience. After spending nearly $100 in dice, we noticed they had a quarter machine for MORE DICE! We got quarters and got a few more. After that, delerious from the long travel, the several hours left to go and my purchase I proclaimed that I would return to GS and spend my "hot, hot, dimes!"

Cycling! I love cycling. I used to ride a beautiful purple Bianchi Advantage about 7+ miles a day before moving south for grad school. Hoping to get back into it this spring now that I’m graduated.

I was also big on marching band. I played trombone and marched from 9th grade through to college. We practiced 7-14 hours a week depending, plus games, parades, and shows on top of that. Really, I’m all about endurance~

7, 10, & 11 for Ezoc?

Oh! I like this one!7. Ezoc doesn’t… really have friends in the normal sense as a member of Golgari. His beetle, Terva, is probably his best friend. I think his best actual people friend is the gorgon who saved him, but she’s less a friend and more of a mentor.10. One time he ran through a goblin infested warehouse while bombs were going off and goblins shot at him in order to rescue a hostage while his other party members were either knocked out or hiding. After getting the hostage, he went back for the other party member trapped in the burning wreckage and hauled her out.11. Hmmm. I don’t want to reveal too much, since some folks who are in his party follow this blog, but he’d likely to commit destruction of evidence/crime scene crimes, as well as cloak-and-dagger activities~

How about 3, 13, & 18 for Jetta?

Avatar

Oh! Jetta, my Naga Cleric!

3. She comes from a mountain village where she lived in a cave. She has some necromancy powers which she shouldn’t have. She is journeying now to find out how and why she has these.

13. Yes, Jetta swears. But it’s like out of place. She’s very sweet, very much the mom friend. And so when she swears, it’s really weird like… to two party members who had some weird sexual tension, out of nowhere she was like: “Did you fuck? You should fuck” and then proceeded to eat her lunch.

18. Oh! I bet her favorite pokemon would be Snivy and its forms. Also, seviper. :)
