Thick with the ‘tism – ASD Social Space

[BipolarPenguin]

Hey @deshift once you've made that D&D thread/post please tag me in a post so I can find it.

I'm keen to talk D&D some more 🙂 or read about it if I just lurk.

Thanks in advance (perhaps).

@Jynx D&D is fun. I am obsessively into another wizards of the coasts game. 

MtG. 

Magic is something I've been playing for about 10 years and its my social outlet. I like collecting the cards as well as playing. I lkve building new decks and exploring new set mechanics. I also like playing it online when I can't sleep. 

My collection is worth waaayyyy too much. I roughly valued it last year and was presently surprised.

Sounds like a great outlet @The-red-centaur ! Hope you are okay.

Yessss D&D is the best @The-red-centaur!! I'm in a game right now as a druid gnome named Frick Frack Snickle Snackle 🤣

Bout to start another game as a bard, air-genasi. He was cursed by a hag and can no longer just talk, he has to sing everything! Gonna be an interesting ride 😋

I've never played MtG but can understand the appeal, I'm actually replaying the Witcher 3 at the moment and am obsessed with collecting all of the Gwent cards! Is MtG kinda similar?  

[The-red-centaur]

@Jynx MtG is very different to Gwent. 

But I love collecting all the magic cards. I get at least a box of packs each set. Kinda an addiction of mine. 

I might be doing my first DnD campaign starting this week. I'm keen. I have always been too shy. 

[Jynx]

Oooh nice one @The-red-centaur do you have a character already? I feel like D&D is the perfect game to work through shyness, cos either you can play a shy character, or you can try someone SUPER BOLD and try to push your comfort zone by being as over the top as possible - it's why I always liked drama in school! Public speaking = Jynx is a wreck with shaky hands and a trembly voice, but on the stage? Not-Jynx = a big, overdramatic weirdo hahaha. Pretending to be someone else made such a difference. 

[The-red-centaur]

@Jynx the campaign just got cancelled. The DM had something come up. 

[Jynx]

Aww boooo that sucks @The-red-centaur 😢

I've thought about starting a campaign right here on the forums, but I just don't know how to figure out the logistics! Like do we have a time when everyone is online at once, or just take turns with no time pressure? How would we do dice rolls, display character sheets, all that jazz.... ahhh tis but a dream unless I can figure something out haha.

Meme for y'all!! 😁
