Report PlotHook's Profile

So apparently MAL profiles are back up, but no PMs or Forums yet. xD
Without the whole package I probably won't be checking MAL as often as I used to.

But if you wanna add me on Discord this is my username: Gwazi Magnum#5117

You finished Battle Tendency? :3

So what'd you think of it? :P

Haha, sure! What kind of stories do you write? :o

You've barely progressed through battle tendency! ;A;

Hello there! Thanks for the fr. I've glanced through your profile and I have to say that I respect your tastes. I recognize a cultured man when I see one. Also, just out of curiosity can I ask how did you find me? I like knowing where people encounter my profile for some reason lol.

Btw, about to pick up Houseki very soon. I've heard it's godsauce and I'm beyond hyped tbh. What can I expect?

Battle Tendency is my favourite so far. :P
Jospeh Joestar is such a funny and enjoyable character! xD

I think one of my favourite scenes of his was this:

I see you're watching JoJo now, what do you think of it so far? :P

Note that Dropbox collection is probably getting a massive update tonight, looking to pour over some other feat books to add new additions to my own collection (since one thing play testing found as players were unsure what feats to get later levels), and implementing a couple more player and monster races. Might even implement some new weapons, like Saka's boomerang.

And thanks. The skills got some focus cause I found vanilla wise players often were a bit starved skill wise if they didn't go the "Half Elf College of Lore Bard" route. That and Intelligence was almost universally the dump stat other than for Wizards, so it seemed like a way to tackle two birds with one stone.

Roll20 is definitely worth it if you have friends that you want to play with, but aren't able to meet up face to face for whatever reason.

The visuals make half of it for me cause of not just the combat but seeing their full reactions to different situations, and how it plays into their roleplaying.

That's the dropbox link to the homebrew so far.
As for advice? Always aim to keep it to the core of the system you're modifying. Like with 5e try to keep it quick and easy to follow, avoid high modifier stacking, respect bounded accuracy etc. If it's deviating too far from the core part of your issue may be you're using the wrong system as a base.

And yea, it's pretty easy. You just need a stable internet. And that with Roll20 you also need to give yourself time/patience to learn the program. Macro's, Soundtracks, Map's they're all relatively easy to do, once you know the basic tricks and how to manipulate things. The biggest mistake I see people make is spend 5-10 minutes on learning it and then give up declaring it broken.

Oh cool, I technically got introduced on an old forum site. Where a friend of mine wanted me to get into the hobby so she sat me down and taught me the rules. Later I used that knowledge to gather my High School friends together and start a game.

I've been watching through Critical Role slowly, 3 hour episodes are long to sit through. xD
Currently I'm at Episode 16, which is still a solid 48 hours minimum.

Among my IRL group of friends I've gotten the reputation of being the guy who is constantly tampering with the rules. To the point I made a bit of an overhaul of the 5e system (specifically I focused on feats, wanted them to have more combustibility like in Pathfinder, minus the modifier stacking), and currently both of our DM's utilise those rule sets. As well as other misc rules I've added.

They're all configured in a couple of documents on Dropbox actually.

Atm though we all play via Roll20 because people moving away and such.

With all these lurkers I gotta increase my Perception score. xD

Atm I'm a player.

I was DM'ing about a month ago but we swapped DM's/games due to personal matters.
What's your own D&D experience? :P

Fair enough. :P
Though now I'm wondering what lead you towards me. xD

And man I need to find myself more D&D games.

But like, do I know you?
We have some mutual friends and you sent me a friends request. :P

Who this be?

Your recommendations are on point and pretty accurate
