Edit: I thought for sure bad guy with a killer soundtrack would be the giveaway.

A public service announcement from a MOD here.

Lots of people are posting homebrew beasties already statted. That’s fine! I’m not complaining.

BUT, the point of this sub it to allow people to uniquely stat creatures.

So I’ve been creating new stat blocks for some of those pre-statted creatures.

I’m also creating new stat blocks for stock monsters in the Monster Manual.

I just want everyone to understand that there’s no limit to how many stat blocks we can create for monsters.

Just pick whichever one you like and use that one.

Please don’t be offended if someone restats your post. That’s all part of the fun.

Feel free to comment if you agree, disagree, or have any opinion in any way.

I have the makings of a food forest. 14 fruit trees, berry bushes, sunchokes, 8 raised beds and 50 containers on a quarter acre lot in the middle of a small Midwestern town. My house is 980sq.ft. and a 4 car outbuilding covers part of that 1/4 acre.

I didn’t plant tomatoes this year because last year I had so many volunteers I couldn’t keep up.

I have mint, roses, lavender, and lilacs.

My raised beds and containers are growing longbeans, black eyed peas, asparagus, corn, sunflowers, strawberries, and jalapeño peppers. And loads of herbs.

I want more “set it and forget it” perennials, like the sunchokes and asparagus and rosemary and fruit trees. But more importantly, I also want to maximize my use of space.

What are good things to cluster together? I know carrots love tomatoes. What else? Is 3 sisters really just a myth?

Help!

Thanks!

Had my GB out 7 weeks ago. Yesterday I had a bit of pain in my right ribs and my urine was like tea. I tried drinking more water all day but this morning it was the same.

I’m going to go to the ER, but has anyone else had this happen?

Update: ER doctors think it’s an Oddi muscle spasm. Blood work has a bit of protein in the urine, but otherwise blood tests are all normal, liver panel came back normal. No UTI.

They said to watch what I eat (which I obviously do) and follow up if it gets any worse or if I develop a fever or start vomiting.

Fingers crossed, this is just normal

Wow. There are a lot of complaint posts on here!

If I buy an actual Amazon Fire TV (instead of adding a stick to a 3rd party set) will it just work? Or is there going to always be a bunch of set up issues trying to get it to work?

Thanks!

I'm a newer DM (a one-shot, and a 4 episode campaign) and my next party is 7 players starting at level 5 😅. I'm using the Light of Xaryxis campaign frame but I'm worried the combat encounters won't be balanced or fun with so many beefy players. I've looked online for advise and I'm not really seeing much beyond don't have more than 5 players (too late) and have your veterans help the newbies.

Does anyone have any examples or advise on how I can navigate a larger party?

In spring 2024 I put in 4 bare root mulberries, 3 foot tall at planting. They all sprouted leaves and grew to 5 feet that summer.

Over winter 2024-2025 two didn’t survive. The other two thrived and grew to 10 feet tall last summer, full and lush.

Today, one of the two has a dozen tiny, weak looking, frail leaves and the other doesn’t have any yet.

The end 12 inches of branches don’t pass the scratch/green test and appear to be dead but the rest of the branches are still green under the bark.

It’s been a cold, wet, overcast spring so maybe they’re just slow to wake this year?

My SO wants to pull and replace them. No patience at all.

Any mulberry experts out there that can offer advice?

I’m in the USA, Midwest, Zone 6b

Thanks!
