Are Your D&d Grid Maps Only Available On Patreon Or Do You Allow Use Of The Ones You've Posted Publically?

Are your d&d grid maps only available on patreon or do you allow use of the ones you've posted publically?

so, here is my feel about this: I am sure people have already used the preview images of these maps (despite the fact they would be pretty blurry in practice) BUT... I am offering over 20 maps on my Patreon, for just a buck, and I think for high resolution non-gridded illustrations you can use anywhere with the tokens separated out so you can customize them or use the tokens on other maps that's an absolute steal

someone can spend $1, download it all (including the 100+ character icons btw), then unsubscribe if they like, so I would highly prefer someone give me a dollar and not repurpose a preview image

here is my Patreon and here are some of the maps that are on it:

opening a tab to google something and immediately entering a state of tranquility and utter bliss as i forget every thought ive ever fucking had

I'm mesmerised by the way you draw scaly skin! How do you get the colors under the scales to blend nicely like that? Do you use gradient maps or apply colors with brushes? The final effect is so neat!

hope this helps :>

Wait, so you said that you can learn to trust others by building friendships, but how does one go about doing that? Wouldn't someone I don't know be creeped out or annoyed if I suddenly walked up and started talking to them?

Friendships are built of repeated low-stakes interactions and returned bids for attention with slowly increasing intimacy over time.

It takes a long time to make friends as an adult. People will probably think you're weird if you just walk up and start talking to them as though you are already their friend (people think it's weird when I do this, I try not to do this) but people won't think it's weird if you're someone they've seen a few times who says "hey" and then gradually has more conversations (consisting of more words) with them.

I cheat at forming adult friendships by joining groups where people meet regularly. If you're part of a radio club that meets once a week and you just join up to talk about radios, eventually those will be your radio friends.

If there's a hiking meetup near you and you go regularly, you will eventually have hiking friends.

Deeper friendships are formed with people from those kinds of groups when you do things with them outside of the context of the original interaction; if you go camping with your radio friend, that person is probably more friend than acquaintance. If you go to the movies with a hiking friend who likes the same horror movies as you do, that is deepening the friendship.

In, like 2011 Large Bastard decided he wanted more friends to do stuff with so he started a local radio meetup. These people started as strangers who shared an interest. Now they are people who give each other rides after surgery and help each other move and have started businesses together and have gone on many radio-based camping trips and have worked on each other's cars.

Finding a meetup or starting a meetup is genuinely the cheat-code for making friends.

This is also how making friendships at schools works - you're around a group of people very regularly and eventually you get to know them better and you start figuring out who you get along with and you start spending more time with those people.

If you want to do this in the most fast and dramatic way possible, join a band.

In 2020 I wrote something of a primer on how to turn low-stakes interactions with neighbors and acquaintances into more meaningful relationships; check the notes of this post over the next couple days, I'll dig up the link and share it in a reblog.

Yoooooo!!!!

All I'm saying is, if a fic refers to characters by their physical attributes instead of their names or pronouns ("he smiled at the older" "the blonde laughed") when we know who the character is, and ESPECIALLY if the descriptions include "ravenette" or "cyanette" or other ridiculous words--

I'm clicking out of that fic so fast my AO3 history won't even register I've been there.
