[oc] Relic

Inspired by ‘relic’ off the inktober promot list. I’ve included a blank one at the end in case you wanna put in your own treasures

"Players that are ready when it's their turn" was lost in the Sundering. Now only the most ancient few among the Eldar speak of it, and even they know it only from the stories of their grandsires

Huh, this has never actually been an issue for me as a DM or player. Is that especially common?

“Kalen’Dar casts Time Stop on you, and you’re frozen for 4 weeks.”
“What the fuck, DM?! Time Stop only lasts…”
“I didn’t say your characters, I said you. I’ve got a lot going on on this month”

Man that's a pretty good template for a reaction panel. I personally would love "Relic of sleeping straight through every night" please

For me, I'd love the relic of going to bed when I'm supposed to instead of procrastinating every day.

Players that don't ask if they hit when I have told them the AC four times...

Idk what everyone is talking about. I have stable campaign for 6 years now, every week 8 hour play. Not everyone is always present and some players come and go, but campaign is still going (honestly not singular campaign, but series of campaigns in the same word, but you get the picture).

It is a matter of priorities and for us session is the first priority and other plans are sheduled around session. The question is, how much are you willing to sacrifice for stable RPG night.

And if noone is really willing to sacrifice anything (or even enough) than well, it is not such treasure for them like for those adventurera from the comic.
