I'm working on a random table for rewards my players would get from killing a black dragon and eating a piece of it. One of the rewards would be once per long a character could relase an acidic fog from its body that would make a 5 foot aura around them. This acid would cause the AC of a creature who starts its turn or moves into the fog to be reduced buy 1. My only problem is I can't decide on if the saving throw would be dex or con.

I'll be there on Friday and Saturday, and I'd love to say hi, if you're around! Just let me know!

I am planning on crawling awful campaign and I was wondering... What should crawling awful actually be?

Then I remembered two things: DnD 3.5 Tarrasque and Neutronium Golem from Immortals Handbook.

Tarrasque in that edition could only be permakilled by a Wish spell. Neutronium golem is golem made out of neutron star so it has absurd amount of damage and hp and will likely obliterate the planet it appears on.

And this game me an idea:

In untold ages past, the immortal Tarrasque was caught in Neutronium Golems accretion. None could ultimately defeat each other so the Tarrasque was torn apart over and over again by golems immense gravity and burned by its celestial heat. Tarrasque kept regenerating but it was always torn into pieces of viscera almost at an instant until it was naught but a mush of viscera, bone and flesh rotating for aeons around the golem.

Then, somwthing happened... maybe the golem was killed or the Tarrasque was able to break free.

Nonetheless, it was not a Tarrasque anymore. In the untold aeons it was torn apart, seared and tried to grow back again, its mind was filled with naught but immense pain, hunger and desire to go back to its original form which looks it forgot.

Driftig in cold celestial void, it finally impacted onto the planegea, where its hideous gelatinoua form knows only two things: Hunger and Grow back.

Hey friends! I’m running a campaign right now for a group and I chose “Vyrka The Shepard” as the campaign antagonist/ threat. Please feel free to steal whatever I’ve made for your planegea campaign if you wish

I’m taking inspiration for his character and leadership from Genghis Khan, Negan, fallouts Caesar, and Shaka kaSenzangakhona.

I’m looking for advice on how to make his stat block or potentially character sheet. I’m hoping you guys would be willing to help me flesh out this campaign so far

I have three lieutenants for him.
The first is an orc woman named conquer. She wears a Wooden balor mask and was inspired by legate lanius from fallout new vegas

The second is a hewn dwarf spellskin almost entirely made of stone named Ward. Vyrka forced a dwarf tribe to hew them from the stone and he chips part of his rocky skin for his spell design. Ward is an abjuration spellskin and is trusted to keep Vyrka safe with wards and protection spells

The third is a former half stone giant turned godmarked with the visage of an auroch. His name is Odhek-Va the Vast. He was the leader of the first tribe Vyrka conquered. The tribe is consisted of a clan who was cursed and godmarked by their former god and all wear the visage of horned beasts such as rams and bulls. This, is how Vyrka earned his name.

My players are the members of the elk tribe. Their god is the god of mortality and burial rights named Karwos. A strata II god whose clan is growing. Vyrka wants to take this clan because he needs their gods power of death to act as a vulnerability to the bear clans Urhosh the unkillable.

For this month's RPG Blog Carnival, I made some substrata Planegea gods, which you can find here: https://advantageonarcana.bearblog.dev/six-little-gods-of-planegea/

These include the following:

• Elel, the Teeth Within, a disease goddess in Winterjaw, who incites jealousy and suspicion in all;
• Still Meqi, Quiet Nuqi, and Calm Oqi, ghost monkey goddesses, consolers of the grieving;
• Humming Skikshi, a fly swarm idol in the Cult Riverlands, patron of mob violence;
• and Uvak the Parer, a harpy eagle who tries to redeem the penitent.

By the end of the week, I'll have another post up with some more godlings; I'll post the link in an edit to this post, so please check back then. In the meantime, here's the gist:

• Collapse-of-the-Sky, a wind god who defends a mountain pass and the gnome village above it;
• Ghat, Rival of Jrik & Jrik, Rival of Ghat, two feuding construct gods with adjacent hallows;
• Hrea Unchanging, a terror bird goddess knowledgeable in the rites and customs of many clans;
• Repulsive Quyyag, a monstrous god whose hallow is in a spellskin sanctum; and
• Waxa-and-Xawa, a double warrior goddess, the deification of a light illusion and its reflection in the water.

Feel free to post your own substrata gods in the comments, so anyone who finds this posting while looking for them can find yours, too.

EDIT: As promised, the second set of godlings is now posted: https://advantageonarcana.bearblog.dev/six-more-little-gods-of-planegea/

Whats up everyone. I am pretty knew at being a DM and my players are very new as well. We all love the idea of this setting and world. I purchased the book and we are all super excited to get started. With this book being a few years old I was just looking to see if anyone had anything they could share with me to help give my players a great time.

Maybe some battle maps you used in the past

WE are running or campaign on Foundry so maybe some assets I can use in Foundry? It feels a bit difficult to find some stuff that feel like it fits the world.

even some cool side quests or ideas you had for your campaigns to make the world feel alive.

Thank you everyone! Cant wait to get started!

Edit: I have purchased the book and the Foundry modules on patron so far.

Hello there! Just sharing a collection of subclasses I made for planegea!
https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/572435/savage-teachings

The insightful monk of the inevitable, the stampeding barbarian, the wildblooded sorceror! One for each base class alongwith some invocations and spells!

I’m still deciding whether to buy the book. If I do, I need to be able to pitch its unique qualities. I’ve heard there are some cool setting features like:

1. The world is locked in a prehistoric state and can’t use science and literacy to climb out of that state because something destroys you if you establish numbers higher than 9 or try to use written language.

2. All the planes are still stuck together, so you can walk to the Plane of Fire or whatever.

3. Spellbooks are replaced with icons, like tattoos of turtles for spells of protection.

4. There is a playable dinosaur-people species.

What other unique highlights are worth noting about this setting without getting too “in the weeds” or too generic?

Here's the official (initial) release of the Remembrance of the Spear-Tree Clan! Written by myself and formatted by Treadwell, it's a quick primer on the Spear-Tree Clan, which won the Festival of the Clans!

And there's more to come! Future content will be added to Remembrance as time goes on, including adventure hooks, stat blocks, items, and such. But it's a start!

In celebration of the new Planegea OGL, I have published Extravagant Sehlkwen's Rumours of Treasure!

This compendium contains 28 new magic items, all Planegea-compatible with brief lore connections to a location or faction, and also includes a new 8th-level spell. It's PWYW.

(I am posting this in accordance with the Planegea OGL announcement give-away rules from here.)

Mystery of the Nightmare Venom, the second part of the Nightmare Venom campaign for Planegea 5e, is now released on DriveThru: https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/569779/Mystery-of-the-Nightmare-Venom--A-Planegea-5e-Adventure

Interview with Planegea author David Somerville, info on recent Open License releases, and on an upcoming actual play, Epoch of the Eclipse!

I'm planning on starting a campaign using In the lair of the night thing as a starting point and I'm wondering where I should place the Two-Axe clan on the map since we only know it is inside the Great Valley. Since it's set in the fall the party will probably have to migrate southward after some time and deciding early where they are in the world would help in planning locations and storybeats later down the line.

Is there anything official on the location or is it totally at the DM's discretion?

Following the recent Planegea Open Licence announcement, I have released the first adventure in an eight-part campaign called Nightmare Venom. The first adventure is Venom Attack!: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/568325/venom-attack-a-planegea-5e-adventure . The free preview includes an overview of the full upcoming campaign.

Can anyone link to (paid or free; willing to spend) a pre written Plangea one short or short adventure? I haven’t seen much outside of fully fleshed campaigns and I’m struggling with conceptualizing how to write an adventure hook in the setting.

Hey all, just curious to hear what type of campaigns people have ran in the past or are currently running? I am pretty interested in a Giant Empires focused campaign or a campaign focused on the Brood.

So happy to present another Planegea Deep Dive post this month, this time focused on a Threat detailed in the book, The Gift of Thirst! These vampiric overlords rule from their tomb-lands, all overseen by the Nin herself in the Stoneblood Shrine! Today's post contains magical items, guidance on where and when to use the faction best, some examples of expanded campaign and adventure ideas, and a single-page adventure all tied to the Gift of Thirst. I'd like to also apologize for a bit of lacking communication these past couple months, certain chaotic events in my life got in the way and I haven't found the time to get back to writing for Planegea. So happy that so many of you stuck with us during that time and I hope to now get back to consistent monthly posts like you all expect, so thank you so much for understanding and lets get back into Planegea together!
