I’m anxiously waiting. Prices have barely dropped here but the inventory basically disappeared. I have a huge search radius and get 1-2 listings a day max

Yeah… it’s all super fucked. I just sold my condo (short sale during the last collapse) and am staying with family in the meantime but I am struggling to find a house that won’t cost 2/3 of my above-average income. I have a 180k down payment to offer. Prices are that insane by me.
I feel guilty saying it because innocent people will suffer…but I am praying for another collapse. Or at least for homes to go back to normal prices.
There will always be a need for rentals but I am wholly against corporatized housing. I think the only people who should own homes are individuals, non-primary homes should be heavily taxed, and there should be a hard limit on how many buildings anyone can own.
Housing should not be an “investment opportunity.” People shouldn’t be able to buy houses just to rent them out.
That’s fine but it’s incorrect to call them “rent-seeking” leeches. If you are renting, you have a landlord - not a realtor
Yeah that’s true for developers but individual realtors are not to blame
…I think you’re confusing realtors with landlords. Realtors help you buy and sell homes, they don’t buy homes then rent them out. At least not as a part of being a realtor
The only other grammar mistakes that really gets me is pluralizing acronyms with apostrophes. It’s the ABCs, not the ABC’s!
I have no idea why they bug me…maybe because my brain automatically tries to read it as possessive
activating pedant mode
1960s*. No apostrophe needed
That window is the only ad I purposely allow in my life. I know I can disable it but it sometimes informs me of games I want
I was trying to figure out a good way to do that! But the loxodons are so peaceful and they came to our rescue so I wasn’t sure how to spin it.
I also have a mouse familiar (with the DM’s approval since it’s technically supposed to be a rat) so maybe he can be the one who gets up to those shenanigans…once I figure out what I’m supposed to do with a familiar as a psychic…
The GM said to thank you for the ideas because being a psychic opens up some new story possibilities that he’s excited about.
Part of my character’s backstory is that he was one of the few survivors when his village of psychics was destroyed during a razorback stampede (and I, as a baby, was the only one who “saw” it coming). He and his family were then taken in by a loxodon/minotaur clan and it just so happens that another player made a minotaur from that same area so we’re gonna be buds and I’m going to (mostly) ride on his shoulder so we’re gonna get a few more fears. Like if I heal him while in tow, I get healed for half of it, too. Sounds like it’s gonna be a pretty fun campaign!
Ohh I like that one! He has a feat for smell (+2 perception) but I pitched him the elf heritage one and he’s on board
I’ve got an oddball one for ya if you feel like getting creative…
The GM hasn’t finished fleshing out the subrace I picked and said if I have any ancestry feats to suggest, he’d be down with implementing them. It’s a very small (1-2ft) Ysoki and I’ve got nothing even after looking up Mouse Facts™. I guess mice have really good hearing?? No idea how that translates to a TTRPG
Got any fun feat ideas for when Fievel Goes West? No big deal if not. I’m asking as a creative exercise more than anything!
They’re so versatile. That’s what I love about them but also makes me want to hold off until the next campaign
Ok, great - I’m much more confident in the choice and I appreciate your help in getting there!
I would LOVE to play a druid at some point because it’s my favorite fantasy class but after seeing the amount of spells the druid in our party has, I decided to hold off for another campaign.
I decided to go with bionicjoey’s suggestion of a Psychic. I was wavering on all the other options but this one instantly clicked with me when I looked it up so I’m running with it!
Sorry for the delay, I started looking into this last night and fell into the rabbit hole…but I’m sold. I put together a rough character on one of the builder sites and started working out the backstory with the GM.
I will be playing a Skitterpaw (unique to this campaign) Ysoki Psychic
Background: Scholar (Occultism)
Conscious Mind: The Infinite Eye
Subconscious Mind: Gathered Lore
Cantrips: Telekinesis Projectile, Void Warp, and Void Step
Spells: Soothe and…undecided because the builder only gives me True Strike as an option…? I think I should have other choices but I don’t know
Soothe seems good enough for what I want but out of curiosity, are there other healing spells to pick up later?
And do deities even matter outside of RP for non-Clerics? I couldn’t quite figure that out…
First and foremost I want to be able to heal in and out of combat. But I’m saying Support and not Healer because I want to have other spells/actions to take - like making my party do more (or take less) damage or blind/confuse enemies.
If I’m sounding weird about describing it, it’s because I find my current character pretty boring in combat. I basically just shoot my bow, miss with Electric Arc, or cast Haste. The monk in our party (veteran player) does so many different things and the druid (another veteran) seems to bust out situationally-useful spells every session.
I want more options in a fight so it feels like my choices matter. The problem is…I have no idea what the options are except what I’ve seen in this campaign.
That is a pretty bad idea unless those average rent prices were HEAVILY localized. Like it can’t be a whole major city…or even 1/4 of one.
