What DMs can learn from the new D&D movie

ginnydi post What DMs can learn from the new D&D movie from patreon

Hey friends! Here's my last piece of content about D&D: Honor Among Thieves, so those of you who are uninterested in it can breathe a sigh of relief πŸ˜‚ I thought it might be fun to view the movie through the lens of a DM and see what lessons it can offer.

What do you think β€” any good lessons I missed?

For this week's video, I tried something new β€” I created a 7-day challenge to deepen character development, and then I did the challenge myself and documented it!

I have... no idea how people will respond to this, haha. Hopefully it won't totally bomb, because it was a lot of work πŸ˜…

Storied Weapons

ginnydi post Storied Weapons from patreon

As a sister collection to Storied Armor, these are magic weapons with origin stories!

You can use those stories to give the items the weight of history, or ignore them and just use the mechanics. 2023-03-24 15:00:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Storied Armor

ginnydi post Storied Armor from patreon

Magic items are fun, but magic items with a backstory? Sign me the heck up! This month, I wanted to create some weapons and armor that are more than just a +1 sword. Each of these magic armor items has an origin story, either historical or mythical. You're welcome to use those stories if you like them, or ignore them and trea...

I'm sure everyone will have differing opinions on the new D&D movie, Honor Among Thieves, but I think we can all agree on one thing: It can't be worse than Dungeons & Dragons (2000).

Gelatinous Cutie (re-edit)

ginnydi post Gelatinous Cutie (re-edit) from patreon

I re-edited some old Gelatinous Cutie photos today on a whim, because I've never been thrilled with the first set. Sometimes I find it useful to revisit old photos, both to implement what I've learned since originally editing them, and to consider how I'd wear & shoot this costume differently next time. This edit has:

Augury's new horns

ginnydi post Augury's new horns from patreon

Realized recently that I only had ONE still photo with Augury's new horns, and it was her calendar photo! So I snapped a few stills while shooting last week's skit.

Even though these horns are much heavier (and thus can only be worn for about an hour before I start getting a truly killer headache), I absolutely love how...

This also showcases what I'm thinking of canonically as Edith's ne...

There wasn't much for this one, but my "demon baby" was so freakin' loud while I was trying to film this that I had to share it.
