OOC out of character general

im not a great dm...

im good not great

Hey man. We all start somewhere.
Don't be hard on yourself.
Just mess around and have fun.

DCC is stupid and Chaotic already.
If you throw weird stuff at us I don't think we will care.

If something doesn't work just blame it on the *System AI* and release "Bug Fixes" randomly.


In all my years of playing it has always been my opinion that the DMs job is to Challenge the players.
Not all encounters are an easy win. Sometimes we have to run.

I don't see him as a Martial Artist at all.
What about you being a regular at the place I work?

We could always do a major city. Chicago, Settle, Denver, ect.

Make it a cafe or diner and maybe we can talk. I don't think someone with a focus on health and balance would be eating fast food :-)

Maybe I come in the mornings for coffee, a roll of some kind, and just sit in the back corner quietly. At some point you introduced yourself and we became decent acquaintances (not sure we'd be like, long-term friends based off morning coffee's but it should still work)

That works.
Breakfast cook at a Small Local Dinner.
One of those places that only has 2 staff on hand all the time.

does tomorrow sound good to start? what about you psybermagi. or are yall still planning. so far it sounds amazing! maybe its at night and you live in the same neighbor hood and yall are walking home beacuse you dont have cars.

Only thing I am working on right now is what he would be carrying with him based on his background. I will try to have that up by tonight but work and wife might make it tomorrow before I can get it posted.

no problem. i will post what is happening you can wait till tomorrow or you can post what you do now. this game will be like turn by turn i go then smiley goes the corrupt goes or corrupt could go before smiley. but my point is i will go then whoever wants to go next will go then i will go or i will tell a specific person to go

me yall me kind of game

you were thinking about life walking next to your friend. It happend so fast the buildings smashed down to the ground. you watched it happen the seven story apartment building was there one moment the next gone. wind rushed at you, and it was instantly Dark outside the street lamp to the left was gone the cars here gone too. everything was gone. except the trees and the bicycles in the bike racks you looked around the freezing wether momentarily gone and in the distance-- a distance you can now see thanks to the lack of buildings - a fire burning
there were utter complete silence

At work so only skimming so far. I will catch-up when I get home from work.
I'm up for going through the process and can be a dungeon NPC, AI, pet, etc. just didn't expect more than 2 posts a day on weekdays.

As determining what items you stay with could be critical I think it should be somewhat random. Players create basic character profile then DM can just use chatgpt or something to create random possessions in hand at the transition then DM can narrate possible opportunities for more before entering the dungeon.

alright we shall wait for you. i really just need class and race ideas but the problem is ai do not know what dungeon crawler Carl is. also if and only if you want to you can become a npc or like you said never thought of it. a pet

but the pet wil come in later more towards floor level 2

every other week i wont be available but this week i am next not

OK I have read up, See 5 attributes and 3 stats Mana, HP, AC(no clear info on this yet)

For the AI, I think Smiley was suggesting I Could be the dungeon AI. But that is really more the DM's job so just forget it.

I will just go with a character close to me but with some variations. Submitted

Ryan works at a home automation company as a systems test engineer, but that is just to pay the bills and keep things interesting between weekends. He enjoys hiking and camping with family and friends. (Likely that could be how he survived if the transition was near a weekend). He helps mentor a high school robotics team as well as helping out coaching the water polo team, though he lack a true competitive spirit and just encourages the kids stay active and have fun.
I kitted him out for a day hike. I can shift to after work/school activities if you wish.

there will be no ac well kinda. to dodge you roll a d20 plus dodging if you get any points in this and dex

so you are a player now? okay im cool with it

That's what I figures. More of a defense bonus than and AC. Such as Dodge, Evasion, Defensive Bonus, etc.
So are the bonuses from the attributes straight or a factor of them?
AC = 0+Dex or 0+Dex/2, 0+Dex/3 . . . . ?

?

you roll a d20 plus dex to dodge if someone is trying to hit you and they roll a d20 plus dex plus whatever to hit
