Hey all! I want to get her something DnD related which is more personal than just dice or something. I was thinking of getting her art of her cats as DnD characters, which ones are best? And is there any other present you’d suggest?
My SO got me a displate of dnd classes as cats. It’s so cute and I love it. Also can’t go wrong with to dice.
I think there is a pottential in personalized “Deck of Many Things” that can be achived in many ways depending in your resources. It’s infamous tarot-like item with (usualy) 13 cards like jester, moon, scull. You can commission things, draw things, write short poems or use photos from shared moments that somehow relate to that. Or do the drowning of the cats in different roles. You can buy blank cards with fancy backs, you can cut them out of cardboard… There is a potential there I think.
That’s a really clever idea thanks
Do you know what her character(s) are like in the game(s) shes in? Sounds like your not familiar with dnd which is totally fine. Any info would help.
Otherwise just make em look like rogues or something fitting to there personality
Paladin/fighter: typical knights (the former being more crusader)
Barbarian: self explanatory
Bard: charmer, artist, talker
Cleric: healer, god chosen
Druid/ranger: self explanatory
Monk: unarmed fighter
Warlock/sorcerer/wizard: magic stuffs (warlock traded for abilities, sorcerers innate ability, wizard discover or learned abilities)
Rogue: thief/assassin, they typically handle finding traps or lock picking. General sneaky stuff
Idk if that helps
That’s really helpful thanks! I’ve texted her asking her favourite character
She says she likes Critical Role, and her favorite characters are usually the ones Sam Riegel plays. Especially Scanlan Shorthalt. If i say that to an etsy person that does dnd art will they know what it’s mean?
Maybe? Scanlan was a Bard and gnome i believe. Theres lots of art for critical role! If the artist you contact isn’t familiar they’ll have lots to draw inspiration from
Nice one thanks 😊
The personal art is a nice idea, one xmas my gf got me a picture of us drawn as Jedi which was fun, it sits next to my computer so I can look at it often. However I think you may need to get the best character type to do for the best one. Of course I’m sure most friends would enjoy the thought put into it even if it’s not exactly the best characters. Mean haven’t played DnD for many years but I can’t say that a specifc look would make me think worse of it.
Also it may not be as personal or even relevant with pdfs these days but even a gift card to splurge at a gaming store would have been welcome in … The before times, thr early internet days. We all used to want our own copies of things is all. Course I’m old so a bit out of touch heh so this advice may not be the best either but figured I’d add.
Great thanks
