Saga of the Change

Overview

Saga of the Change is a casual actual-play podcast using the World of Darkness rule sets and inspired by SM Stirling's Emberverse book series. On a spring night in 2023, all across the globe, all high energy technology ceased to function. From gunpowder and steam power to nuclear fission and the high-technology cybernetics of the Technocracy, everything ground to a halt. In the aftermath, the world burned, and a new high-stakes global game began. The players? Any power, magical or mundane, willing to grasp for power. Caught in the middle, countless ordinary people just trying to survive in a merciless world they no longer recognize. The story plays out in a world we all recognize, but which is forever altered by powers beyond our understanding. Werewolves openly prowl the abandoned streets of New York, vampires rule New Orleans, and Mages battle for control of Chicago. All the while, stranger and more dangerous beings move in the shadows, seeking their own mysterious ends. There's no knowing what mysteries lie in each dark corner of this new world. Join us in finding out.

MageHand — an Android tracker for 5e, standalone or DiceCloud-synced The stuff you poke fifteen times an hour at the table — slots, HP, resources — deserves to be one tap away on your phone. MageHand does that two ways: Standalone, no account. Create a character on the device and run it: HP, custom resource rows, your own abilities with use counts and costs, rests that reset the right things. Nothing to sign up for, no server, no network. If you don't use DiceCloud at all, the app still works. Or synced to DiceCloud v2. Sign in to dicecloud.com or your own self-hosted instance (you enter the server URL) and the tracker builds itself from your sheet, live in both directions. What's in it Tracker — spell slots, class resources (rage, ki, wild shape, inspiration…), hit dice, HP with temp HP, death saves, concentration, conditions, resistances/immunities. One tap to spend, undo on everything, short/long rest buttons that reset exactly what the sheet says they reset, with a badge on each row telling you which rest touches it. Inventory — collapsible sections, equip/unequip, move items between containers, wallet summary, search, sort by weight/value/name. Actions & spells — what your character can do, by level and prepared/known, with attack and damage modifiers resolved, weapon mastery lines surfaced, and a "Use" button that spends the slot or charge for you. Full sheet (synced mode) — the DiceCloud web UI embedded and already signed in, so the character creator and anything not yet native is right there. DM view (synced mode) — live trackers for a whole party on one screen plus a read-only feed of who spent what and who rested. Built for a tablet. Offline — the last synced sheet stays readable with no connection. Customizable — pin/hide/reorder tracker rows and inventory sections, per-character accent colour and portrait, configurable tab order, UI scale from 70% to 150%. What it needs: Android 11 (API 30) or newer. Nothing else unless you want sync — and then your credentials only mint a login token you can revoke, stored encrypted in the Android Keystore. What it doesn't do: no ads, no analytics, no crash reporting, no account of its own, nothing sent anywhere but the DiceCloud server you chose. Licensed GPLv3, same as DiceCloud itself, so code can flow either way with upstream.

Welcome! I'm a giant, obsessed, D&D Nerd, running well over 300 games a year. In short, I play more D&D than is probably healthy. The goal here on the channel is to leverage that obsession, and your own talents, to help one another improve our games of dungeons and dragons, without ALL of us needing to sacrifice a full time job's worth of time on prep and gameplay. If that sounds like a good deal, I'd love to earn your sub! I'd be happy to start by answering ANY D&D question you might have, either in the comments section, on my discord server, or in a dedicated video. Just drop a comment and I'll do my best to help.

RollQuest

Virtual tabletop (VTT)
English
Dungeons & Dragons
RollQuest is a virtual tabletop (a VTT: software that stands in for the physical table when a group plays a tabletop roleplaying game online, or in the same room with a screen) that runs entirely in the browser. There is nothing to download and nothing to host. The Game Master opens a game, players open a link, and everyone sees the same map, tokens, dice and fog of war at the same moment. It is built for Dungeons & Dragons first. Both current rule sets are included as rules packs: 5e (the 2014 rules) and 5.5e (the 2024 rules), on the SRD 5.2.1. The GM picks one when creating a game, and the character sheets, conditions and combat follow it. The board itself, meaning the maps, tokens, lighting, fog, dice and audio, works for any system; the rules packs add the sheet maths and combat automation on top. The core table is free and does not expire. On the Free plan a GM gets fog of war with walls, doors and token vision; dynamic lighting with torches that follow tokens; physics-based 3D dice that everyone watches land; character sheets that calculate modifiers, saves, skills, hit points and spell slots, with a guided builder and ready-made pregens; Battle Mode, which rolls initiative, tracks turns on the map and puts conditions on tokens; scene music and a sound library; and chat with whispers and roll history. Up to eight players plus the GM can join a game on every plan. Content packs are whole campaigns ready to run: maps, scenes, tokens, NPCs, journal entries and handouts. Any plan can load one from the marketplace and have a session the same evening. Character sheets and decks live on a player's account rather than in one campaign, so they travel between games. RollQuest is in beta, and ships new features most months. The team takes feature requests and bug reports on its Discord server.
