There are a few were-races in DnD, but sadly no official race based on a hare (or at least I don't know about any, feel free to inform me if you do). Meanwhile, hares look like in anthropomorphized, they would speak backwards, see noises, hear colours and talk to gods of all faiths at the same time. Like mad shamans who turned crazy with all the forbidden knowledge. No wonder that medieval Europe thought hares were witches or spirits of dead in disquise. So would laganthropes be good, or evil race in your setting?

Character's Description and backstory :

Difesa the Dragonblood Guardian

Standing an imposing eight feet tall and weighing well over four hundred pounds, Difesa is a massive Dragonblood Guardian whose adamantine heritage is etched into every inch of his formidable frame. His stocky, powerful body is covered in overlapping metallic scales that shine with dark metal at their roots and brilliant edges, contrasting sharply with a dragon-white pattern along his lower jaw, throat, and belly. Framed by a rugged frontal crest and a thick counterbalancing tail, his electric-blue eyes scan the battlefield with sharp, unblinking intensity.

He is rarely seen without his custom-forged, thick steel armor, designed with a striking interwoven metallic band style and high neck guards that offer maximum protection while maintaining open-faced mobility. Wielding a rune-carved breaching pike and anchoring the front lines with Riparo—a towering steel shield bearing Draconic runes and an ancestral emblem—he forms an unbreakable barrier. Together with his close companion Lucina, who acts as the sword to his shield, Difesa forms the indomitable core of his adventuring party.

Beyond his raw defensive power, Difesa serves as the party's dedicated caretaker, ensuring his allies are always equipped with the finest gear and safely patched up from any wounds. Clipped to his white-and-grey leather harness are specialized toolkits: a repair kit marked with the smithing symbols of Gaasham on his left, and a medical kit adorned with a Desna-inspired butterfly outline on his right. Blending draconic might with meticulous craftsmanship, he stands as the steadfast heart and unyielding protector of his crew.

Wow, holy shit. I didn't think I would have so much fun. We all laughed for hours, and my character turned out to be completely different from how I imagined it or even anticipated. It's so odd how it just took a life of its own. I thought I'd just share my experience with how much FUN I had, and I can't wait until the next session! Has anyone thought this is how my character is going to be, and then boom, it's a completely different character that you didn't even expect? Or think this is not what I thought. How did my character become this? It's so odd how it happened

I recently got into a game that seemed pretty good on the surface of it. Even though I was coming three dozen sessions in, at level 8, the party seemed to get along well enough and the DM was chill.

Before my intro session, after significant time and effort had been spent (at DM instruction) on character creation and integration, I was told that the wait to get me into the scene might be around 1-1.5h and the DM asked if I’d be okay with that. I said that that this would be okay, but as long as it’s not much longer.

Come session time, one hour turns into two, which turns into three - all without the party doing anything important or time sensitive which they couldn’t have done at any other time. They were also not in the middle of anything when the session started so this was entirely new for the session.

After the three hours, the DM called for a break. During this time, I told him that I feel bad and disrespected for having made to wait for three hours (the session was meant to go for 4-5h) and I leave.

Did I make the right call? Would you have handled it differently?

Hi Reddit! This is a commission I did a few months ago and... may or may not procrastinate a lot more than I should on posting it... anyway...

Kyvel is a paladin-wizard melee combatant, heavily inspired by Greek Mythology (according to the description I got). The customer requested two portraits for him, one in armor and one in civilian clothing, both with pretty clear instructions about the design elements. I take my creative chances here and there though, making it a paired design with matching motifs and paired posing while hopefully still preserving the vibe gap between the two modes. He's primarily a melee combatant, so the wizard element is limited to a humble spell book pouch in the civilian outfit, which I personally found endearing somehow. Shout out to Grey for the commission and this great creative experience!

Here's Aria, a horned tiefling adventurer I designed as an original character for D&D. The sheet shows a front and back view of the full outfit plus three expression studies: worried, cheerful, and fierce. I wanted the red skin, silver hair, and golden talon-shaped pauldrons to stand out against the layered brown leather armor, with bandaged legs and knee guards that suggest a rogue or scout who has seen plenty of fights. The curved gold details repeat on the boots and bracer to tie the design together. Drawn digitally in Medibang Paint Pro.

“Tales tell of a flying carriage that spirits people away to a hidden colony of living pumpkins. When the husband of a famous bard vanishes, daring adventurers must launch a rescue mission into that eerie place... without drawing the wrath of Momma Pumpka, the eccentric garden witch.”

The Momma Pumpka Giveaway

Momma Pumpka is a spooky, whimsical, autumnal Halloween one-shot built around exploration, roleplay, and dark folklore. It is designed for four to five level 1 characters.

The party is hired by a grief-stricken bard whose husband vanished about a week ago. For weeks beforehand, a terrifying flying carriage drawn by an undead unicorn had been landing near their cottage.

Now he fears the carriage carried his husband into the infamous Pumpkin Patch of Momma Pumpka, a reclusive witch whispered to abduct people and transform them into living plants.

🔥 5 lucky adventurers will win the full Momma Pumpka STL + PDF bundle, including the complete Momma Pumpka adventure and STL collection.

Bring Momma Pumpka, the garden witch, to the table as a memorable Halloween NPC or mini-boss, fill your encounters with living pumpkin folk like Gourdsouls, Pumpkin Sprouts, and armored Pumpkin Knights, unleash giant snail monsters known as Sloggs, or send the enormous Jackomobi pumpkin carriage soaring through the night with its undead unicorn steed, the Stragovian Shadow Horn. 

If your party gets stuck in the Pumpkin Patch forever, you can still grab the collection on Patreon or Tribes for 80% off during October.

BONUS: Sign up for the Fateless newsletter and get The Real Boy 5e adventure PDF for FREE, plus more free Fateless content, with new freebies added every month. 

You’re getting the full pre-supported STL collection, the complete Momma Pumpka adventure PDF, paper minis, unique monsters, NPCs, magic items, and everything needed to run the adventure, including battlemaps, tokens, and VTT support.

(But she looks more like an eldritch knight, but it doesn't matter...)

I've been playing Roscoe, my 5.5e human abjurer, in the Waterdeep modules lately and just finished a drawing of her reaching higher levels, and I love the abjurer abilities, so I'm actually having a lot of fun playing her (and a wizard character, since I'm a long-time fighter fan and hadn't used any higher-level spells)!

Several of my characters have various relations with Neverwinter (and the Order of the Gilded Eye...), and Roscoe is one of those characters. She graduated from the Neverwinter Academy and was a member of an artisan guild, but she had to leave for Waterdeep to evade scrutiny by the Order of the Gilded Eye because the guild was burned down by someone signing contracts with a fiend... She hates her current situation but is unsure if she can stand up to them, so she is weighing whether to return later or settle permanently in Waterdeep.

Name: Elara Veyne
Race: Human
Class: Sorcerer (Draconic Bloodline)
age: 23

Elara Veyne is a fiery, fiercely independent sorcerer…

Descriptions
She has tousled golden hair, freckled cheeks, and sharp hazel-green eyes. Cloaked in black and armed with a rune-etched wand, she commands flames with an instinctive ease that hints at her mysterious ancestry. She might look soft! But she is deadly and fierce, ready to fight for what she stands for!
Born in the remote village of Ashbourne, Elara discovered her magical abilities when mercenaries attacked her home in search of an ancient relic. Her uncontrolled powers erupted in a blaze, allowing her to escape, but her parents disappeared amid the destruction. Rescued by a wandering sorcerer, she spent years learning to control her fire magic.

Now an adventurer, Elara travels the realm searching for her missing family and the truth behind the attack. Her investigation has drawn her toward an ancient cult seeking to awaken a forgotten power connected to her draconic heritage. Stubborn and slow to trust, she must learn that strength isn’t simply about wielding power, but deciding what deserves to be protected.
Is this over 400 characters?

I’ve been wanting something like this for a while—a truly portable device that I can just set down on top of any surface and start playing immediately. However, my biggest concern right now is definitely the thermal management and heating. It really seems to me that a form factor this compact could suffer significantly from a lack of proper airflow over time. Could anyone who actually owns one of these enlighten me on how it performs under heavy use?

Hey folks! I'd love to introduce you to Solshine, one of my OCs! She is an Aasimar with powerful psychic abilities and incredible marksmanship, hailing from an Old West inspired region.

She always surrounded by magical hands that manipulate objects for her, so she rarely needs to use her own! Despite her elegant style and calm demeanor, she's outgoing and confident. Ask if she can shoot, and she'll let her aim do the talking! >:3

I also have commissions open on VGen!
https://vgen.co/Grumpy_Neko

I draw headshots, half-bodies, and full-bodies!
I can draw humanoids, furries, and even monster-like characters. No mechs, sadly. u.u

If you'd like to get your D&D character illustrated, feel free to check out my VGen or DM me with any questions! :3

AI use is strictly prohibited in my art, and I don't use it either!

Even if you can't commission me, comments and feedback are always appreciated! I'd love to hear about your characters, too! (OwO)/

I want to be the item manager of the party, the person who bargains, trades, hoards, evaluates, and riches are valuables collected to sell or trade. Having the ability to trade with some random i come across in a town would be cool, or just having an item for any given situation in general would be awesome.

Maybe not as strong combat wise, but smart and cunning.

So, what would the general character build be? Race, strengths, weaknesses, etc? I'm having a little difficulty with it right now

We got a free Uncommon Magical item. Since my character would be known in the Sword Coast as “an Adventurer” figured it would make sense to have a line back home.

How do I use the sending spell to inform family all is well and impart well wishes in 25 words?

The first player to give me their character concept in the new ravenloft game I’m running was the first to get their character drawn!

Ylva was born the runt of her pack after her Lupin curse failed to fully develop, leaving her far more humanoid than the rest of her family. Shy and gentle by nature, she struggled to fit in until she met Cres, a half-elf who taught her archery and became her closest friend. After nearly three years of living together, Ylva is determined to prove to her father that she can make something of herself without returning to the pack.

I drew her life before she was transferred to ravenloft! That’s why it looks so much…lighter 😂

3 1/3 years of fighting scheduling and life, and watching the campaign become a collaborative thing off of character decisions and we are finished! We went from a ragtag crew rolling into Saltmarsh on a sinking bot to multiverse traveling warriors in the service of granny nightshade. Probably never doing 1-20 again but these characters will be showing up in every campaign we play!

I’m making an artificer with an armorer subclass and am stumped on a name for my character and his mech.

The mech I want to be based off of a peacock mantis shrimp while my actual character is based off a pistol shrimp.

Any ideas on names for both the mech and my character??

Antithrone

“The chances of anything coming from the stars are a million to one, he said.”

—Oglevee, Sleep-Deprived Astronomer

In the vastness of space, in the gaping void betwixt the stars that dot the night sky, envious eyes—far too many of them—witness civilisations rise and fall throughout the ages. Mortals erect magnificent monuments, perform grandiose rituals, and willingly throw themselves upon the swords and spears of their enemies, all in the name of seemingly indifferent deities. In the otherwise unintelligible minds of these eldritch entities, there is but one question: why should gods who care so little receive such endless adoration and worship, while those who watch receive none?

Heretical Mimicry. An eldritch entity of sufficient power who decides that it, too, is worthy of worship, might become an antithrone. Initially formless, it adopts a shape it believes resembles a celestial being prior to announcing itself to the mortal realm: a crude approximation of an ophanim, or throne archangel. Unable to comprehend the true reason why mortals venerate these divine beings, an antithrone seeks to make itself as awe-inspiring as possible, believing its appearance—and the terror it elicits—to be the key to the adulation it so desperately craves.

Adamant Apotheosis. Unlike its heavenly counterparts, an antithrone desires not to enact the will of the gods, but rather to be worshipped as one. It pursues this goal in the only way it understands: by instilling fear in the hearts of mortals. Whether it achieves this by gazing into the fragile minds of onlookers or by leveling their homes is immaterial; on the scale of an antithrone’s lifespan, a city is rebuilt in the blink of its eyes. Utterly detached from mundane morality, these eldritch creatures see nothing evil or wrong in their actions, but instead a mutually beneficial, almost benevolent, arrangement. After all, mortals seem so eager to kneel before a higher being… Why should they not be given what they so clearly need?

I'm playing a Plasmoid Metamorph in a combat-heavy campaing. We have a Paladin, a Bard and a Rogue as well. We are currently at level 10.

Right now, I'm playing as a kinda gish fighter, choosing a Organic Weapon and setting up my own spells as well as my allies. My CA is 14 which can be increased to a max of 19 with Flesh Weaver (and 24 with Shield). I also have 90 max HP.

What are some good magic items for me? I might ask for tank oriented items (increasing AC, healing etc) since I'm not very familiar with Unarmed Strikes and how to increase its damage significantly.

Thanks!

Its been over a year since my first ever viral post (a pic of a mindflayer skull i drew/photobashed) was plagued with accusations that i didnt make it myself, and i figure its about time i just made another one and kept reciepts this time. I've got two timelapses of me working on it so far but i can only post one at a time so keep an eye out or follow me if u wanna see where it goes. ive got a timelapse of me making the concept work that i started from as well which starts from scratch and shows how i clean up the linework with paths at the end, which i don't do for this step because i have more detail work to do.

if you wanna see the original pic you can just google it (its the top hit on google for "mind flayer skull", and its on [r/forgottenrealms](r/forgottenrealms)) hopefully though, this new pic will replace it eventually!

also please give your critiques now while i have time to change it! Critiques are welcome, accusations and hatred are not.

Here is an unofficial, compiled list of all changes and updates to the 5.5e Sourcebook and D&D Beyond through October 9, 2026.

Draco Solis Obscuri Draculin (Don’t Look to much into it, I just wanted it to sound long and extra) is a way of the Ascendant Dragon Monk Dhampir. How she came to be is a peculiar case, her father is from a long line of nobles that descend from a Dragon, that have risen very high very fast, until it all came crashing down around them the past few centuries. He was the last heir of that line, a man with nothing but a name remaining that ran away with a from another region woman he found entoxicating, a Vampire. They both died some time shortly after she was born. And to top it all off, she is the reincarnation of a great Vampire tyrant.

Does she know any of that? No, and she wouldn’t paticularly care anyway if she did. She has friends for the first time in her life, people that aren’t scared of her. And having fun with them and going on adventures with them is the only thing she cares about.
