I wanted to talk about Raya the Last Dragon, its Disney's new original animated film coming next year and I felt we should talk about it since this is a really big deal. No more sequels or anything anymore even though I'm really looking forward to Frozen II, its good that an original Disney movie is coming out again like Pixar is now as well with their two films. So what do you guys think, what are you guys think about this new original Disney animated property coming soon even if we don't know too much about it yet.
Hi all, first of all, thanks for this sub. I've been trying to get back into reading and this has helped me get into it again.
I've finished Senlin Ascends and moving to the second book soon, but Senlin's kind of a heavy read sometimes and sometimes I just want something light that can make me laugh and enjoy the setting and world building.
Any suggestions?
So they were trying to save one of the PC's father from the enslavement of a green dragon hiding in a cave in some woods. Decent plot, but the party is level 4 and absolutely cannot defeat a Young Green Dragon on their own. The idea was that they find a piece of a broken legendary weapon that they can reforge and use to slay the dragon. Cool.
So they make it into the cave, fight some gnolls and kobolds, get some treasure, including an ornately carved sword hilt. Hmmmm. Good. The plot will surely move forward as they'll wanna know more about this weapon later, right?
So they continue into the cave and see the dragon sleeping and haul ass out of there because they're running out of spell slots and health at this point. Fair enough.
So that night, an NPC allied ranger of theirs gives them shelter and asks about their experience. He can't wait to hear about what creatures and treasures they found! The party bard tells them they found a chest with only copper in it.
"Oh, really? Nothing else? At all??"
"Nope :)"
"Oh, ok. Weird... well, I can escort you safely back to town if you like."
"Why would we wanna do that? We're gonna fight the dragon!"
"Absolutely do not do that he's too powerful for you."
"Nope. We're gonna fight him because we're rested and you're gonna help us you strong archer, you. :)"
Roll persuasion.
"Hmm... You know what? I swore to protect this forest! Let's slay the dragon!"
Ok so at this point I've been trying to get them to not fight the dragon and come back stronger at LEAST, but they're hellbent on fighting it. I figure the only thing left is to show them how strong it is so they'll run away.
They make it to the cave entrance which is on the side of a hill and persuade the NPC Ranger to be the first to enter because the dragon probably isn't there, right? He gets to the mouth of the cave and is immediately grabbed by a green claw and pulled into the cave, screaming until he is silenced by a cloud of acid breath erupting from the mouth of the cave.
O_O <----the party's faces
They don't run away and instead prepare to fight. Oh good. After two of them immediately go down, I have the father they're trying to save, who is a powerful druid, fly out of the cave as a pteranodon to distract the dragon. Maybe they'll run. Nope.
After reverting back to his human form, he tells his son that he's proud of him for being so brave and strong, but he needs to save himself now. The druid turns into a mammoth and is going head

Just wanted to thank everyone for the awesome stories. Also, yes the spelling of Snek was deliberate. Iβve been trying to post a writing prompt here every night before bed for the last couple days and it is really encouraging when I see so many people willing to spend their time writing awesome stories from my prompt. Keep it up fellow writers and good night from Australia.
Edit: Front page, awesome and thanks. Also good morning from Australia. Glad you all got to write some awesome stories from my prompt.
Granted, she at least was talking about revolution/changing the world, but still. :/
I've done the math, and it seems like the kids of Stranger Things would be the high school class of 1989. So I've always thought it would really fit to end the series with them graduating high school, so the series ends both with the end of their childhood and the close of the 1980s, which has been just as much of a character as the people. I know the Duffers aren't interested in keeping the show running that long, but that's ultimately up to Netflix.
But I recently found out that the 2nd Edition of Dungeons and Dragons also came out in 1989, so I thought it would fit even better for the last scene to be them trying to play it but being really confused by the new rules. It would be a great symbolic example of the trope where you bring characters full circle, but with something about them fundamentally changed.
