Sorry for the mere preview; I'm not sure how to upload multiple images on Kbin, if there is a way at all.

If it piques your interest, you can find the rest of it on my Erisly profile here.

So what is this? Basically, we've created a comprehensive random person generator for the Western Heartlands (where Baldur's Gate takes place) based on demographic data gleaned from Forgotten Realms sourcebooks. I know it's isn't strictly Baldur's Gate III, but we thought those of you who also enjoy tabletop play might find it handy.

Use, enjoy, or ignore as you like!

So what is this? Basically, we've created a comprehensive random person generator for the Western Heartlands (where Baldur's Gate takes place) based on demographic data gleaned from Forgotten Realms sourcebooks. We use it to replace the rather lackluster Reincarnation table, to generate people in the world, and to brainstorm new character ideas.

I've been trying to get answers from Proton for literal months concerning critical functionality issues with their mobile Android client. Messages are often truncated / missing data; clearly, there's a disconnect between the cached version of the message and the message the user sees. Unfortunately, every attempt to resolve this with support is met with boilerplate "try our beta app" at best, ghosting at worst.

I have supported Proton as a paid user since 2018. It would be nice to think that they value their early adopters, but... honestly... their actions suggest otherwise.

Edit: Proton acknowledges the issue, offers no timeline for a fix:

Please be informed that the issue has been reported and our developers are aware, they are look for fixing it in one of the future updates of the app. Unfortunately, we cannot provide an ETA on when the permanent fix will be available.

Good afternoon (or whatever time it may be for you!) Long-time supporter of Proton here with a strange, possibly deal-breaking issue. For the past few months, my users have been noticing that outgoing mail is often missing the end of their message. So far, Proton has been unhelpful, pasting in boilerplate about using the beta client (we did, no luck) and promising that they're working the issue.

With the issue reported in September and it now being December, I'm not super hopeful! We use Proton for professional stuff, so this truncating messages deal is not cool. Anyone have any magical fixes we can try?

Here's to hoping!

Before I begin, let me just say that I love D&D, have for years. And despite its flaws I love 5E; its probably the most accessible version of D&D I've played... and I've played a fair few versions.

But... but! I'm sorely disappointed in 5th Edition's lazy approach to fleshing out the Forgotten Realms. There's just not a lot of official, contemporary material available and what is available has been watered down. I've taken to working with 3E / 3.5E worldbbooks because that's the last time I remember Wizards putting out quality worldbooks.

Am I just missing an amazing set of sources? Are there must-haves on a third party site that I may not know about?

Or, am I right in thinking that the current focus on comprehensive campaigns has left those who are interested in a less structured approach scrounging to find good source?

(Perhaps next time, we can chat about the lack of good, official one-shot adventures.)
