The extra large is $220, but there are more affordable options if you're willing to go smaller.

You've got a good eye for tentacle dildos.

You can guess the usage by the wear pattern in the suction cups.

[-] azertyfun@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Hopefully not... Otherwise someone is literally boofing microplastics.

And what if the DM is a woman?

[-] match@pawb.social 8 points 1 day ago

... even though he lives alone!

Well he has a roommate

[-] PassingDuchy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Just from DMing perspective I feel this when my players decide to fight a NPC they weren't supposed to fight at a level I don't have a block for lol. "Well your options are cr3 and cr10 and you're level 7 so....10 it is and imma just shave some stuff off while hoping for the best" lol. Shout-out to every time my party says they're looking for shady people to circumvent the legal way to do something then balk when the pricetag isn't a handshake and an IOU their reputation proceeds them will never be collected.

The joke is that's a dildo

[-] PassingDuchy@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Yep and CR10 when you're level 7 and decided to fuck around is also a proverbial dildo

I forgot my minis for a session one day, but remembered to bring the Werther's originals. So we used soda tabs, beer caps, and Werther's for minis that day.

[-] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Honestly, this is more OG than most people realize. You're doing it right.

Coins, and even dice work in a pinch too.

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I only have like 10 minis and the party I DM for is 5 people, so I use a lot of random stuff as minis. I'm slowly building a collection, but it's expensive lol

As a totally cheap-ass DM, my recommendation is to find some printable DnD tokens that you like and glue them to things like bottle-caps, or small round bits of wood (like chunks off of a dowel from the hardware store). There are a bunch around. If you want to splurge, take the bits you want somewhere you can pay for a quality color printout.

Personally, I'm a fan of these generic tokens by "Acquitt". They're useful for every encounter: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexternal-preview.redd.it%2FV7egJC87nsVUTybGs5E3DwvRihmz6KduUfniSJk6Fec.jpg%3Fauto%3Dwebp%26s%3D57f11a74865814f31c7236adb1555a43529ca355

I glued these to some sculpey discs of the same color. I also used transparent binder sleeves for HP tracker sheets, so I could use dry-erase marker. Lastly, my battle map was a large (but cheap) poster frame with 1" grid paper inside^1^. This let me use those dry-erase markers to draw terrain.

1. For more thrift, some wrapping paper brands print a barely visible 1" grid on the backside. Some quality time with a ruler and pen can turn that into something useful.

You can also do Lego minifigs if you don't mind paying shipping. They're super cheap from places like Bricklink and you can get a lot of different designs pretty easy.

In many cases you don't need mini at all, it's rpg not a miniature game.

No mini nor battlemap gives more freedom to everyone (at the price of less tactical depth), and if you need a view on the situation, a whiteboard with a sketch + cross/letter does can bring you pretty far
