About me
Hi! My name is Reina(she/her), aka "The Rainbow Role" on social media! My primary experience with TTRPGs is with D&D. I got started young and rolled my first 2e AD&D character when I was eight and I have never stopped. I ran my first game when I was twelve and have been a "forever DM" ever since. Currently I primarily run and play 5e, both 2014 and 2024, but have experience 2e, 3.5e D&D, pathfinder, Carbon 2185 and non d20 systems as well, including Heavy Gear's silhouette system and Wold of Darkness. In the last ten years or so I've really made an effort to make my games more role-play heavy and less of a "table top war game with a role-play element." I love lore, both writing it and having my players give their characters lore. I can run a number of styles from light-hearted and goofy to gritty and dystopian, to grimdark. I'm also a huge proponent of safety devices and make sure I include them in any of my games. I'm also a digital artist, so I'm vehemently anti-GenAI, none of my games currently or ever will feature any generative AI assets or writing. That said I love getting to create character art for people and my profile picture is was created by me in Procreate based on a picture of myself.

Homebrew rules
In addition to natural 1's and 20's being an auto miss and critical hit for attacks, they are a critical failure and critical success on skill checks and saving throws, which can result in extra things happening depending on the situation. Drinking a potion is a bonus action Critical Hits: Critical Hits double ALL damage, including the modifiers, not just the dice rolled.
