Ken's prepping for an overland journey in his Shadowdark campaign, and thinking about weather.

I think this will work, though I'm disappointed there's no archdruid in #DnD2024 (though it's easy enough to use the one from Mordenkainen's Monsters of the Multiverse). #GamePrep #CampaignPrep #DungeonMasterLife

A pintish coffee mug, maybe a full 20 oz sits on a wood grained kitchen table next to a computer, affixed to the black steel is a graphic of a Star Wars First Order Tie fighter, black grey with a red stripe, facing forward before a grey Chevron type emblem and above a red hexagon holding the toothed ring sphincter logo of the First Order.
Teaching a fifth grader ttrpgs is a solemn responsibility, and using it as a reason to play Star Wars with your best friend further the obligation. But at five p.m. I need an elixir if I'm to find the spark to light the fires animating this galaxy. #campaignprep #d6StarWars

Klurg is a tall, muscular, half-orc carrying a ladle and a frying pan in his massive hands. The small, purple, and furry Jeeter is carry 3 different plates in his 3 left hands, and a can of soda and a spatula in 2 of his right ones. Both wear a white & red apron with a cornflower style motif and white chef hats.
The dromaar Klurg and the skittermander Jeeter are best friends & owners & sole staff of "Fryguys", a tiny bistro near DEDS headquarters in The Spike. They are both too talkative for their own good, serving gossip almost as frequently as waffles and pancakes.

A screenshot from D&D Beyond showing a custom homebrew item titled “Arcanophone.” The item is categorized as a Wondrous Item, rare. The description details: A handheld rectangular device with runes and a retractable glass screen. When activated, arcane minerals project indicators showing magical frequencies in a 20ft radius. The screen displays numeric values and abbreviations for magic types (e.g., FIR = Fire). It can be activated as a bonus action, collecting and storing magical data for 10 minutes unless interrupted. The information is lost if the process is disrupted.
A screenshot from D&D Beyond showing a homebrew item titled “Cadenza Stones.” The item is categorized as a Wondrous Item, uncommon. The description reads: Cadenza Stones come in pairs, carved to match each other for easy recognition. Touching one allows the caster to use the Sending spell to contact the bearer of the paired stone. If no creature holds the other stone, the caster knows instantly and the spell is not cast. Each stone can cast Sending twice per day. If one stone is destroyed, the other becomes nonmagical.
Doing some #homebrew items for the next quest, so far I've made a magically powered tricorder & slighter better walkie talkies (sending stones).
Anyone else enjoy filling their players' inventory with MacGuffiuns? 🤣

Part of my current #hobby versus #work versus #domesticlife caseload includes #campaignprep. I'll forever scream the merits of @slyflourish.com 's #ReturnOfTheLazyDungeonMaster title from my #audhd #gamemaster rooftops, potentially also review in future. For now, once again - thanks Sly Flourish!
