I have no idea if this is new or not to the forums (or even if this is the right section) but here goes:

I am planning a campaign of sorts for my friends and it'll be my first 'serious' attempt at DM'ing. We're playing the Swedish role-playing game called Drakar och Demoner, and even though it has been called the equivalency of D&D for quite a while, there will be no rule related questions since they use different systems. Here is the gist of it all:

The heroes have arrived in a town near their home. The travelers are guarding a caravan sent from their tribe (they are part of a tribe of mountain men) and the first thing that happens is that they get robbed blind by the ‘racist’ city guard, they are left with a dagger and some gold pieces which the hunter in the group had enough foresight to hide in his boot. One thing leads to another and they end up in a crazy slummy tavern called “The Vulgar Simpleton” where they start finding work.

The idea is that they have no real choice in the matter, they have to eat and they can’t leave the city since they need to get their wagon, which holds most of their gear, back. And even though they are a proud people and have never even thought about going into a life of crime they are now forced into it.

Anyways, why I am here is simple. I am looking for people that hang out in this tavern. A short back-story and some appearance. Why do they hang out at the Simpleton? Remember even though most people that do hang there are thugs and scoundrels not all have to be.

Do you have a shady character that might even have a quest? Then share! All contributions are more than welcome.

EDIT: I just realised that this might be a tad bit light on the information side of the town and so on. If you are interested and want some more information on background, setting and so on tell me.

erm, is this on any sort of game? Eg a w3 or SC map?
If so, this is the wrong place to post this. Look at the Members' Projects under the correct Game Heading.
If not, then please describe in more detail as to what this will be like.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
