The occult library app is a digital platform that offers a wide range of occult literature and resources for enthusiasts, practitioners, and researchers. The app aims to provide a convenient and comprehensive way of accessing information on various occult topics, including astrology, tarot, numerology, witchcraft, and more. With the occult library app, users can browse through a vast collection of books, manuscripts, articles, and other resources that cover different aspects of the occult. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, the app caters to all levels of knowledge and interests. One of the main advantages of the occult library app is its accessibility. Unlike physical libraries that may have limited hours of operation or restrictions on borrowing materials, the app allows users to access its resources anytime and anywhere.
Arran and Qickass are let out from their cells and onto the sand-covered floor of this long rectangular hole. And out of some side gates along the long side of the rectangle, there swarms 40 velociraptors (also dubbed "The Piranhas of the Streets"), further ahead there are two starved dogs, and last but not least a massive tiger. The two brave adventurers do really well at first, Qickass doing a football-knee slide under the jumping velociraptors, since the toothy buggers all decided to pounce Arran.
The locals likes to entertain themselves with a game Criminals have a chance to avoid any form of punishment by running a suicidal gauntlet with no weapons, and only clad in loincloths of 250 feet where they must dodge some of Chults more deadly and starved beasts, reach a rope at the end of the gauntlet and then climb up out of the Pit, alive.

Moreover, the app also offers a personalized reading experience.
The adventures of the Curse-Breakers: Our Barbarian thought it was a good idea to bite back.
Okay, so, I am a relatively new person to the Subreddit, been lurking for like a year or so, hi please do not beat up the new kid!
(Oh, and I'm a Swede, so expect a few spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. >_>)
Okay, so, on with the story:
I am a DM since like 5 years back, and consider myself an experienced traveler of the D&D sort. A friend of mine approached me and asked if I could DM for her and some of her friends, I accepted, only to find out that none of them had ever played D&D before. So I decided to play a cruel joke by putting them through one of the most high-stake adventures I know of: The Tomb of Annihilation. Yes, that tomb. That perma-death adventure. And they are loving it!
So after a grueling and long character creating process, the party consists of a fairly balanced and "role-based" team of the classic "We have supports, damage dealers and two big tanky people who soak all the damage!"
The party consists of:
Qickass (Yes, it's pronounced "Kickass") the Wood Elf Rogue (Thief). Used to work on a circus together with his twin sister.
Alara the Wood Elf Ranger (Hunter), Qickass twin sister. Has a weird obsession with bread.
Masego the High Elf wizard (Evocation, I think? Was some time since he was in a session and it was some time since we played. :Y), rich boy who wants to know ALL THE THINGS.
Doxxian the Dragonborn Paladin of Bahamut (Devotion), she is enthusiastic, young and very very naive. Makes all the mistakes. This is her first adventure (or time outside of Baldur's Gate) after all.
Rifael DiFanalo, the Half-Elf Bard (College of Lore), ocarina player extraordinaire, poet and an overall rich bard who has no concept of "Adventure = Danger at times".
Arran Stormtamer the Half-Orc Barbarian (Berserker), a strong and wholesome young man with an even more wholesome backstory. Might get into that sometime. And yes, he is the one.
The part had just been recruited to go to the jungle continent of Chult, looking to put an end to the mysterious and ominously named "Death Curse", which progressively kills anyone whom has ever been brought back from the dead or is undead in some way. This means that any character or NPC who dies during the adventure is permanently dead, their soul risking being devoured forever by a dark necromantic artifact known as "The Soulmonger". This means that any form of resurrection essentially is impossible until the main bad guy of the adventure has been defeated.
Due to some complicated reasons involving a harbormaster, Arran accidentally crit failing a check and a faked "Weapon's tax" Arran our barbarian and Qickass the rogue ends up being arrested. And in the port city of Nyanzaru that only really means that they are going to one place:
The Pit.
The locals likes to entertain themselves with a game: Criminals have a chance to avoid any form of punishment by running a suicidal gauntlet (with no weapons, and only clad in loincloths) of 250 feet where they must dodge some of Chults more deadly and starved beasts, reach a rope at the end of the gauntlet and then climb up out of the Pit, alive. Noone has made The Pit run and survived for the last 5 years.
Arran and Qickass are let out from their cells and onto the sand-covered floor of this long rectangular hole. And out of some side gates along the long side of the rectangle, there swarms 40 velociraptors (also dubbed "The Piranhas of the Streets"), further ahead there are two starved dogs, and last but not least a massive tiger. The two brave adventurers do really well at first, Qickass doing a football-knee slide under the jumping velociraptors, since the toothy buggers all decided to pounce Arran.
But Arran has a loooot of hitpoints, and essentially wades through the swarm of raptors, killing a few as he goes. Their brethren immediately lets go of the bigger threat, since hey if you haven't eaten why scrutinize when you can cannibalize amirite? And this pattern essentially repeats with how Qickass skillfully dodges past the animals, not really wanting to deal with any of it, and Arran just. Kinda. Tanking it? The dogs leaps at him, however I give Arran a split second to do something. he grabs them both mid-leap, one in each hand and smacks them together, KOing them both at the same time. The crowd is loving it. Now it is just that massive tiger left, and Qickass sees that he cannot dodge his way past this beast and climb up the rope without taking any damage (This was relatively early on so the tiger could essentially 2shot Qickass). So what does Arran do? He picks up his friend, and throws him like some strange elf-shaped javelin, succeeding a very difficult strength check, and suddenly Qickass is up and out, unsure of whatever just happened.
Meanwhile Arran tries to roar beastially, attempting to assert his dominance over the beast. The tiger isn't impressed and roars back, so Arran tries to smack the beast over the head with two fists, but misses. The tiger in turn bites the or in the arm. This is where Arran rages. And what does he do? He lifts his arm, the tiger still tearing into his bicep, and nearly rips the beast's throat open with his tusks and teeth!
The crowd goes crazy, the tiger lets go and backs off, ( That's a crit and some luck, folks!) and Arran leisurely climbs out of The Pit.
Moral of the story? Do not bite Arran Stormtamer.
Sorry for the rant, and I hope y'all enjoy!

1. Mike - 2 stars - I was really excited to try out the Occult library app, as I'm a big fan of paranormal and supernatural topics. However, I was highly disappointed with the app's content. The library was poorly organized and there was a lack of variety in the material. It seemed like the same few books and articles were repeated multiple times, and there was a noticeable absence of any newer or updated information. Overall, the app felt outdated and didn't provide the in-depth knowledge I was hoping for.

While it does have a decent collection of books and resources, the interface and user experience leave much to be desired. The app is slow and clunky, making it frustrating to navigate through the library.

I also found it disappointing that there was no option to interact with other users or have discussions within the app. Ultimately, I was left wanting more and had to look elsewhere for a more comprehensive and engaging occult resource.
