Agreed. In fact it’s had such problems that its content doesn’t even seem to be federating to my main instance anymore, likely because it’s been deemed “dormant.”

We’re also several versions behind and there have been major security fixes since then…

Maybe it does now, but it didn’t when I used it last time (it had just come out.)

Image Transcription:

Title: “DND characters I’ve been banned from playing.”

A drawing of a smiling woman with pointed ears and a blond updo looks at us. She wears a green dress like a folded leaf, with yellow and blacked striped tights underneath. Bees buzz around her.

Caption: “Swarm druid with beehive hairstyle, but it’s a real beehive.”

A drawing of a red-skinned person with horns and yellow eyes without pupils reads from a book. Cards float above their hand. Their robe bears a red B symbol, in the style of the D&D Beyond logo.

Caption: “Warlock who is directly pacted to Wizards Of The Coast.”

A drawing of a zombie-like person in tattered clothes holding a staff made of bones looks at us. The staff glows green.

Caption: “Necromancer who raised themselves from the dead, and now has to maintain the spell.”

A drawing of a person-sized mechanical snake with a drill bit for a tail and a piece of wire as a tongue.

Caption: “Warforged druid who wildshapes by physically reconfiguring their body.”

A drawing of a large cloud of red and yellow energy, with a tiny silhouette of a person with arms outstretched at the center.

Caption: “Wizards.”

From what I recall, it doesn’t import spells. Which is a bit annoying, but totally workable.

As a GM:

I host online for friends, so we use digital tools.

• Foundry, hosted on my desktop computer, with these modules:
  • Dice So Nice, and several skins.
  • Dice Tray, to make rolling single dice easier.
  • Pathbuilder Importer mostly for my lazy players.
• Obsidian, for when I’m running homebrew. But with the revamping of Foundry’s journal system, I may stop using this.
• Discord for game audio.

As a player:

I have a tablet PC with a pen. I take notes on Rnote (free, open source.) I used to use OneNote which was great because I could search my handwriting, but I stopped using Windows.

Historically, I always used physical dice because I was playing in-person. I did my PF1e character sheets manually by writing on the PDF in OneNote, but for PF2e I do enjoy Pathbuilder to help me plan it out. For actual play, I build my character sheet in Foundry (even if the GM isn’t using it for the game) just to make everything easy for me to find.

Every time there’s a big Paizo announcement coming up for Starfinder I get far too hyped, hoping for a Starfinder 2e announcement. I love the idea of Starfinder, but having looked at the rules I don’t really want to play it until it get updated.
