Swamp puzzles

Hello all!

My party will be entering a dangerous swamp soon.

Any good puzzles I can throw at them that aren’t just generic nature obstacles?

Convince me to switch or stay (VTT)

Hello all!

I am currently using the free version of Roll20 to play and record my sessions. I am using Beyond20 to connect the VTT to DnDBeyond.

I am thinking about switching to Foundry VTT, Discord for video/voice, and DnDBeyond for character sheets.

Just wondering if the switch is even worth it.

Thanks!

Edit: I play with a group of 5 players. They are all out of state.

I understand computers, but am by no means an expert.

Roll20 I have the MM, but no other books.

Am I able to upload maps to foundry, but then GM from a different computer?

Dueling in DND

Hello all! I created a Homebrewery sheet to spell out how I have handled "duels," or 1v1 combat in my 5e campaign.

It is fast, and easy. It works well, and you can change how the AC or attack/spell roll is changed to your liking!

Thanks!

Copy land mass

Is there a way to copy and paste a land mass? I have continent shapes that I like, but now that I am doing the map more, they need to be moved to make sense..

Anyone know how to accomplish this?

Race substitutes

Random question, but I am making a one shot for my party… basic premise is that some magic shenanigans happened and now the tiny critters in a grove have gained consciousness.

My overall plan is to just substitute races for small animals… like maybe a half elf becomes a mouse, human becomes a chipmunk, or vice versa.

Other option is to have a critter equate to a class— like mouse = rogue, squirrel = barbarian, owl = Druid/caster types.

Anyone have any insights on what animals should be what?

Plan is to have this for 5e or 5.5e

This might be a dumb question, but why isn't there "house composites" for the houses available on the maps?

For example, if I use the water color temple for well... a church or something.. I find I need to then turn down the opacity on the stamp and then trace the inner walls out... Shouldn't there just be a composite for available house stamps? That would make sense, no?

▲ 10 r/dndmaps

Been trying to improve on my world maps.

Yes I know rivers aren't supposed to "cut through" kingdoms... but I made that decision before I knew any better.

I found that as we go on adventures, the map becomes more fleshed out! Not being to rigid with the upfront concept has really helped my party! I have been working on an "world" map as well, but I haven't needed it, so I haven't been working on it

Any of you lovely DMs have advice on how to make cheap easy “parchment” looking paper?

I wanted to send a few letters to my players from NPCs for my next session.

Thanks!
