Bad DM?
As much as I enjoy being able to play D&D, I do have this to say regarding the game with S as a DM.
From what I have been able to understand from reading various blogs or other sources, players of higher levels are supposed to be viewed--in the game world--as exceptional, almost god-like in ability.
Our group is level 18 and, by all accounts, powerful. The party consists of a Genadyeh (half-orc berserker barbarian), Krepsis (dragonborn champion fighter), Papeiros (firbolg druid of the land), Belneras (tiefling eldritch knight), Pinenut (gnome illusion wizard), and K'myr (tiefling trickery cleric).
By all accounts, we should be wiping the floor with almost anything that comes across our path or, at the very least, have some sort of renown or be well-liked by folks. We have none of this from DM S.
Both my husband and I feel the same at level 18 as we did at level 5, the level at which we started on this adventure. Not only this, but no matter what plan we pitch to our DM, whether in advance or on the fly, he always manages to make an excuse as to why we cannot succeed. Want to dig beneath a city? Nope, the city was blessed by the god of its namesake and as such has stone beneath it that extends downward indefinitely. Want to use your gate spell to summon a demon lord into the middle of town to busy the solar so you can infiltrate the castle? Nope, the solar wins without a single dice roll. Want to shapechange into a dragon and fly thousands of feet up to drop boulders onto the city? Guess what? Spears are managing to strike you, "because reasons."
I don't expect things to go our way all the time, but by that same token, things shouldn't be against us all the time either.
My husband and I have already agreed to sit down with him some time before the 2nd campaign starts. The game hasn't been fun in several weeks because of this counter-play; when S announced that our characters had been hired to bring down a government, it was the most excited I'd seen the table in a long while. We were making so many plans, and then backup plans for those arrangements. We came up with strategies and infiltration... every single one of those ideas was countered and every action we took resulted in the loss of a number of soldiers we had been given to help us in our mission. Granted, we were told it was a suicide mission at best, but.... come on. Level 18 for goodness sakes. The concept of, "Yes and...?" does not exist for DM S and it just doesn't sit well with either myself or my husband.
So wish us luck, yeah? We're really excited for our next characters and we don't want them to be bogged down by his pre-scripted baloney.

Festival Update
Well, things aren’t looking too good for the group :( so far no one has advanced to the next round, & Isalyn’s player didn’t even show up, so… great.
I guess that just means the festival keeps all the monetary prizes :P

Have to admit, I'd love to make one for myself, though I'm not sure if I could roleplay it in such a way that does it justice.
What about you guys? Have any of you made a Path of the Zealot Barbarian? Let me know!

A little help?
Our current campaign with DM S is coming to a close, and while I'm sad to see it go, I am excited for a campaign that actually starts at level 1 and doesn't skip 2-5 levels at a time. ><
Unfortunately as a close to the current story, we have a bit of a puzzle:
We are in a city full of religious zealots, tasked with assassinating as many people in power as we can. We're level 18 and our party consists of the following: Barbarian, Wizard (Illusion school), Cleric (Trickery Domain), Fighter (Champion), and Druid (Circle of the Land). The druid and barbarian have been captured and the high priestess of this place is guarded by a solar.
We've attempted several plans, managed to kill several innocents and lost more than half of the soldiers sent to help us. We even managed to use the Gate spell to summon Geryon in an attempt to fight the solar, but he was ultimately sent back to his domain.
Any ideas? We'd definitely appreciate them!

5 Ways to Traumatize Your Players
"While scanning your monster manual for fresh nasties to batter and maim your closest friends, you may be tempted to flip past the Stirge. As a tiny beast with four measly hitpoints you might fail to see its value as an adversary to even the lowest level adventurers. Stop. I’m about to teach you five steps to turn a buzzing gnat into pure terror and all-out panic.
For the uninitiated, the Stirge is a horrid flying thing that looks like a mixup between a bat and a mosquito. Its wingspan is roughly two feet across, and a six-inch long proboscis hangs limp from its face. To feed, the creature flexes powerful jowl muscles, transforming its sagging sucker into a ridged spike that it plunges deep into the flesh of its prey, drawing great volumes of blood as sustenance. They’re weak, they’re crunchy, they’re barely a snack, but when run right the stirge is absolute nightmare fuel."

Low Magic Campaigns
5 Questions for Low Magic Campaigns
"5th edition Dungeons and Dragons was created to be high magic. Healing is readily available, spellcasters are relatively powerful from their first level, and magic items are often powerful and common. As a reaction to this, a lot of Dungeon Masters try “low magic campaigns” where spellcasters are rare and not allowed as PCs, magic items are nearly impossible to find, and magic itself is either a distant memory or never existed. If this sounds appealing to you, consider the following questions before deciding if you want a low magic campaign."
