Barbarian: “I CAST MAGE ARMOR!”
GM: “You can’t cast that, you’re a barbarian.”
Barbarian: *Grapples the wizard, holds him up as cover*
Started working on a New Year’s one-shot. A clock-themed dungeon (the adventure ends at midnight!) Maybe a time-loop. Something tricky that they’ll need to think their way through. 🤔 anybody ever run a time-based puzzle dungeon?

I’m going to take my cues from the most popular and true-to-the-characters version of the DC Universe - The DCAU.
We’re doing this in this order:
1) Batman (standalone, just make it a good Batman movie. If you have to include something to link it to the eventual plans, be subtle!);
2) Superman (standalone, just make a good Superman movie with a good, stoic, heroic Superman who isn’t a flying brick or a petulant child. Remind people that he’s a true HERO figure);
3) Superman/Batman: World’s Finest Heroes (Now we’re actually starting to interconnect the wider DC universe rather than trying to shoehorn in extra characters. No flash-drives with teaser trailers for a potential JLA here!)
Superboy Prime has had the weirdest character arc in comics, and that’s saying something!
Beleaguered good guy, unwitting retcon agent, minion of an archvillain supergenius, omnicidal maniac and card-carrying supervillain, toady for the Batman Who Laughs, redemption seeker, 4th wall-breaking meta-aware superhero.
Weird but not unwelcome!
With the Man of Steel's fate undetermined, it's up to SUPERBOY PRIME to fill his shoes!
It's a new era from me, @Danmora_c & Alejandro Sánchez collected in the SUPERMAN VOL. 7: REIGN OF THE SUPERBOYS - PRIME TIME trade, which you must pre-order at your store before today's FOC!

To the surprise of absolutely no one.

According to the 2nd Edition AD&D module “A Paladin in Hell”, his name is Klysandral. He is a former adventuring companion of Emirikol the Chaotic.
When I ran it, he became known as St. Klysandral the Twice-Martyred.

Glad I stopped watching Stranger Things before it became a Looney Tunes/Home Alone crossover series

Remember when artifacts all had a massive drawback or multiple drawbacks that offset their insane power-levels?
I do.
I often will drop one big artifact into a campaign and the players will be afraid to touch the damn thing.
Heck, they had to do a massive quest for a noble efreet last campaign because the ranger was the epicenter of a natural disaster every single month. Hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions… all centered on him! They wished the artifact away!
Ehhhh… I mean, when I run it, it’s a little more complex, but yes, any target that the PCs can just blast away at without interference is going to drop fast.
Hey! You may not think my traps “realistic” but have you considered that:
1) I’m Chaotic Evil;
2) I’m a high-level wizard;
3) I’m spiteful;
4) I did it for the LOLZ.
The deadliest trap I ever used:
Here's how it worked. If the player falls into the pit, he can't see anything. Whipped cream is opaque. Even blocks darkvision. The other players also can't see him. If they try to use ropes to fish him out, the ropes float on top. Meanwhile they can't hear him talking and eventually the victim expires with no oxygen.
In my game they finally attached a mace to the rope so it would sink into the whipped cream. But the victim couldn't SEE the rope and had to grope for it.
Now I can see that you might say I'm too mean, but there are fairly obviously several ways to get him out of the pit (besides eating the whipped cream). How many can you think of?
(And if you want to argue that whipped cream isn't "realistic" may I point you to Tomb of Horrors?)
Dark Nights: Metal/DC: Death Metal and their consequences have been a disaster for DC Comics.
This Absolute Batman… thing… looks like something an edgy teenager would come up with.
The current version of the world’s most popular roleplaying game vs Old-School retroclones
It’s the Ship of Theseus.
Neither are D&D.
Both are D&D.
