nocturne

The cremains came in a bag inside of a box made of corrugated plastic. His mother and I split the cremains in the parking lot of a seedy motel. My half went into a big gulp or similar cup until I got them into his water bottle (it is a nice metal one, not like a plastic disposable bottle).

Step one: pour beer down the drain
Step two: enjoy some apple juice
Step three: have a huge glass of water

I had expected him to be a 2-3 episode then brutal death character.

My son is in his water bottle. Never bought an urn from the crematorium.

I have a kid that was born in 99, every year i am reminded how's long ago it was.

Does this mean that if I am a Barbarian with Strength/Constitution saving throw proficiency, that I automatically fail when needing to perform a Dexterity saving throw (because I do not have the ability score used by it)?

Unless your barbarian has a 0 in dex, you have a dexterity ability score. Your barbarian has proficiency in Strength and Constitution savings throw, meaning you add your proficiency bonus to your ability score bonus. The other ability scores have a savings throw of the ability score bonus, and any other bonuses you may have, but not your proficiency bonus.

I was doing a speed run to rewatch the original X-Men cartoons before starting '97 then he was fired and I lost interest (not because he was fired, but why he was fired).

I try to have each character know at least 2 other characters in the game, this creates some overlap.

I ran a game (and after almost 11 months) finished a campaign with a bunch of teens who had never played any RPG of any kind prior to this, and while making characters they created a traveling circus or carnival kind of thing and every character had some ties to it. So even when they did not know one another they would see the troupe's emblem and become instant friends.

The other method I enjoy is trial by fire, starting the game with an intense situation and they have to work together to survive. I used this to start the other d&d game I am running. It also inadvertently happened when I was introducing two new characters to my Werewolf The Apocalypse game.

They not have a sock for your mouth?
