I wrote a one-shot!

Well… it’s a first draft. It’s a mess. It’s all over the place. It contradicts itself. It’s honestly pretty awful.

Anybody want to take a look and give some constructive (and ideally instructive) feedback?

DM me your email and I’ll send you a PDF.

Thanks!

Meet The Mortician Maestro Race: Kenku Bardic College: Spirits The Mortician Maestro performs eulogies and funeral rites, channeling the voices of the dead via his Kenku mimicry. He uses tales from the grave to empower allies or curse enemies. His spellbook is a ledger of obituaries. His "performances" are unspoken, conveyed through unsettling soundscapes and pantomimes. The Tales from Beyond feature allows him to roll a Bardic Inspiration die and pull a spectral tale to use in combat. Each tale is linked to an entry in the bard’s obituary ledger, a spellbook bound in pressed lilies and ash-treated vellum, wrapped in leather and secured in bone. Each Tale from Beyond is a story pulled from a collected obituary in the spellbook: Tale of the Beloved Friend (Temp HP): This is an obituary belonging to Mira the Seamstress, who died shielding her grandchild from a collapsing building. Tale of the Avenger (Bonus Weapon Attack): From the obituary of Balik Thornblade, executed for revenge killings against corrupt magistrates. With a DM's permission, the Maestro interacts with corpses after battle to gain new tales for the ledger.

Meet Bruce Tree

Meet Bruce Tree. Bruce is a chipmunk Monk who channels hyper-alert woodland instincts into dizzying martial arts and acrobatic precision. Fast, jittery, and curious to a fault, he scampers up walls, slips past blades, and punches like a tempest. His fighting style -- rooted in the Way of the Drunken Master -- mimics chaos but is honed by instinct, training, and unnerving, twitchy Focus. Once a totally ordinary chipmunk on Earth, Bruce's reality fractured one night beneath a familiar oak. He awoke somewhere strange, somewhere magical, able to speak. Disoriented but adaptable, Bruce found himself accidentally rescuing a trio of talking birds who call themselves the Blue Jay Gang. Later, his first true ally, a half-elf druid named Juniper, gave him a name, a scarf, and a purpose. "Adventuring," she said. Bruce ran with it. Now he wanders the world in wide-eyed wonder, hoarding snacks and shiny objects in his enchanted “cheeks of holding” and learning the rules of a world that still thinks he’s a squirrel with delusions of kung fu. But Bruce is more than that. He knows there's a tree -- his tree -- that he may never see again. And while he doesn’t quite grasp why he’s here, he’ll follow the trail wherever it leads, even if it means stunning dragons with flurries of blows and dodging spells like falling leaves.

A ska band magically fused into one character, with all their memories, skills, and personalities intact. Chaotic, musical. A literal one-man band, marching through the campaign with eight souls in sync

A warforged who has no muscles in his face and can’t express emotion the typical way, so instead he has 3D holographic tattoos all over his body that he can point to in order to communicate emotion.

A short story wherein the main character is stuck in a time loop , a la Groundhog Day. But the main character has OCD to a point where they know they need to change to get out of the loop, but because of their OCD, they just can't. Plays out like a tragedy.

How do people handle pictures for contacts in their phone? Most of mine are just the generic Google Contact image -- the first initial in a colored circle. I grabbed a couple of photos from my Google Photos account for my wife and a few others, but do people these days actually take specific pictures of people just for contact photos? I guess I’m just wondering how other people handle contact pictures, or if most people just don’t care.

Eyeglasses that replace the need for bifocals by tracking your eye movement and what you're focusing on, then changing the magnification accordingly.

Is This Anything? In my D&D World, the most prevalent and go-to drugs are made from the Moonflower plant. Also, there are four moons. When those moons all light up the night sky in the same place at the same time, there is a noticeable quality improvement in the crop of Moonflower plants in that region. The resulting chase of sciencing where the moons will shine brightest in the upcoming years, and buying up land in the area, lends itself to small, shifting land-wars by businesses and gangs

War of the Worlds, but instead of invading ships, a Martian meteorite crashes to Earth and begins spreading alien plant life. Midway through the story, keen observers will realize the main plant character is actually Audrey 2.

Is This Anything? Take the typical Time Loop trope, but the viewer doesn’t see the repeating day; we see the fallout of the days after. A new day-after per episode. Here: imagine the classic movie Groundhog Day.  Phil lived thousands of days during the movie. Some days he focused on things like french poetry or learning piano. Some days he jumped in front of a moving car, or was in a high-speed chase from the cops. Take any one of those February 2nds, and show what would have happened to that character and his surroundings on February 3rd (and beyond) if that day had been his last day stuck in the loop. He spent the 2nd learning to sculpt statues out of ice? We show the aftermath where he becomes a surprise celebrity off of that skill. He had a mental break on the 2nd and kidnapped Punxsutawney Phil? Let’s see the 3rd, where he’s hiding out from the Punxsutawney Mob. Monster of the Week, but the protagonist is the monster.
