We are on a hiatus on our TTRPG group, and we've decided to do a Call of Cthulhu game next, as a mini campaign. We are planning to do seasons on the same setting, so we are trying to build the city/region in coop, using ExNovo, a fun city building coop game.

Anyway, here´s the map we have made before adding the last population tokens to make it chonky.

Mine‘s also in the thumbnail!

Two ongoing digital games bundles are offering more than 200 tabletop RPGs (among video games, soundtracks, books and other goodies) in order to raise money in support of the Palestine Children’s Relief Funds. The Palestinian Relief Bundle is being hosted on Itch.io, while the separate TTRPGs for Palestine Charity Bundle is taking place on Tiltify. For $8, the Palestinian Relief Bundle is offering nearly 400 total items, 103 of which are tabletop RPG systems, supplements and adventures. Mapmaking game Ex Novo is joined by the paranormal gunslinging satire FIST: Ultra Edition, along with Takuma Okada’s celebrated solo journaling game Alone on a Journey. Weird and dirty iconoclast game about money, the mind and everything else, Greed by Gormenghast is also on this list and is well worth a look. And if you’d rather keep it cosy and introspective, Cassi Mothwin’s Clean Spirit will get the whole group taking care of their domestic homes. The TTRPGs for Palestine Charity Bundle focuses solely on analogue games, providing nearly 200 tabletop games for $15. A full spreadsheet of the included titles can be viewed here and includes Nevyn Holme’s Gun&Slinger, where one player embodies an occult cowboy while the second plays their sentient, magical gun. Wendi Yu’s Here, There, Be Monsters! approaches monster hunting media from the other side of the camera with a decidedly queer lens and unapologetic politics. Makapatag’s Gubat Banwa is a lush and dynamic collision of wuxia media, fiercely romantic and tragic melodrama all set against the backdrop and folklore of The Philippines.

Das ist Klieburg. Ein kleines Dorf am Radn einer Klippe. Entstanden ist es mit Hilfe des “Spiels” ExNovo und gezeichnet habe ich es in Inkarnate

No me enamoré de ti por algo físico, me enamoré de tu forma de tratarme, de tu forma de pensar, de lo complicado que éramos, de tu manera única de comprenderme, de tu sentido del humor, de tus chistes, y bromas, de cómo era cuando estaba y hablaba contigo, más real, más sincera, y muy vulnerable.

#Repost @travelersbeerlog ・・・ 🚨 NEW MEXICO BEER ALERT 🚨 Greetings from your fellow California quarantined beer guy y’all ✋🏽 I’m sad to announce that my #newmexico beer stash is dwindling. I’ve gained so much love for the beer coming out of that state. Literally every one I’ve tried has been DOPE, and this one follows that trend. This is #thecactuswinsthelottery , a Sour Berliner with Prickly Pear from @exnovobrew_nm 🍐 Let me just say this: INCREDIBLE. The prickly pear puts a pause on the pucker power of the sour (alliteration AND bars) 😬 My wife admitted that it’s probably the best sour she’s tried - HIGH PRAISE because she can be a little finnicky when it comes to beer 🙌🏽 It’s been a little rainy for the past couple days so this was the perfect brew to have on a much needed sunny day. Sweet and tart with a lingering pucker that makes you want to keep drinking it 🤤 This beer put me in such a good mood that I decided to get TRICKY with my #abucketaday🏀 challenge 😏 Ball ➡️ Wall ➡️ BUCKET. Y’all I was so hyped about it that I legit put the video in this post 😬 GET THOSE BUCKETS Y’ALL. Also this is easily one of my FAVORITE shirts (shoutout @seventh_son_brewing 💪🏽) They literally have nothing to do with New Mexico but it’s still a dope shirt 🤷🏾‍♂️ Hope everyone is doing alright and having some beer quality time during this quarantine. Cheers y’all! 🙌🏽🍻🤙🏽****************************************************** #travelersbeerlog #forthelog #onward4beer #newmexicobeer #abq #albuquerque #abqbeer #exnovo #pricklypear #sour #berliner #craft #beer #craftbeer #craftnotcrap #beernerd #beergeek #instabeer #beerstagram #seventhsonbrewing #dope #buckets #trickshot #nailedit #beerselfie https://www.instagram.com/p/B-PyF66n-iE/?igshid=j8jn1nbcwtx5

This is an excellent list! I'm a big street magic fan and actually used it for the last time I ran Masks with great results - organized restaurateurs ended up as the biggest political faction in the city lol.

I've seen enough people in the tags and reblogs sat ExNovo that I'll have to check that out first, but I know each of the others on that list would work great

I am now taking suggestions for worldbuilding ttrpgs to build a setting for a Masks campaign!

Meet a group of idiots! Kamergat, Malus and.. Just Sans?

They don't know what each other's problem is, but they have an obligation to help each other. Because Kamergat said so. It was very convincing!

Time to knock out this damn cabinet for the JK build! Wish the drawer sliders would have shown up on time! This little Jeep is turning out to be alright! Going to be super handy on the trails and during hunting season! . #jk #jeeplife #jeep #wrangler #jkbuild #rogueelement #brotherhoodofbrew #warn #exnovo #killthesun #barrelage #agedbeer #agedbrew #beer #brew #woodworking #drinkupadventure #bestop https://www.instagram.com/p/BuR94c_lc2l/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ondzgqtzcw3

Dungeon World Worldbuilding #1

You might have seen my post about my D&D group taking a break and making a setting to play Call of Cthulhu. Well, it went well until it didn't. We played ExNovo to set up the city and... they haven´t written anything since. I am craving TTRPG so I'm going to GM a one-shot to play Dungeon World, partly to try to entice my players to other TTRPGs and partly because any game based on the Powered by the Apocalypse system is infinitely hackable, and has less narrative and mechanical restrictions than any D&D edition.

So, worldbuilding for a one shot. If I don't have a very particular idea for a one-shot (I've done a Sunless Skies setting, and some others more contained to an idea or a vibe) I tend to approach it as a piece of a world that might be expanded later, you never know when a one-shot is going to turn into a full campaign down the line, and no one likes to retcon stuff. That being said, you don't need to invest 100 hours to just play a 4h game. Make details that would be on the corner of the adventure, throw the name of some city outside the map, some NPC from a distant land, a religion from a god irrelevant to the story... This makes the world feel more grounded AND gives you things to work with in the future.

I've decided to start with a map. I am not artistically gifted but I like to put pen to paper to doodle and draw some maps, it's relaxing to me. Oh, and I like to use post it notes a lot for map-making and doodling, so that's the size of paper that I'm working with.

I've started with the rough pencil shape of the coast, some mountains, some rivers, the usual.

I then give details and let the shape of things inform a bit of the worldbuilding. I really liked the gulf on the center of the map, so I exagerad it and thought it could serve as an important port city, and that the two river deltas that seem to have helped form it could host two military ports and to help keep the peace on the gulf from pirates and bandits. I got rid of the idea of hills on the bottom right corner just because I don't really like drawing them on a map and proceeded to select a couple of points of interest for villages: One on the forest to the north and one on the lake to the south-east.

In the end I give some more details, erase the pencil lines and presto we have a map to worldbuild in.

One last note: Naming things.

I hate naming things but it has to be done and has to be mildly serious to not beak immersion. I chose to call the land Lanria because it's the first name that came to mind and a quick Google search came up empty of already existing fantasy concepts. Not that paying homages isn't a good thing, and if you are not publishing your work go nuts, but I don't like to deal with the preexisting concepts associated to known names. Port Numen is one name that works unplanned, "Numen" was what came to mind when coming up with a name for the city, I knew it was a real world but didn't know it's meaning, and it´s perfect for a settlement and we can play on the motif by cranking up some religion on it. Folstia is just a name with a city-sounding ring to it. North and South Grip because it looks like the land is pinching the sea, gripping it, and Pond Village on what's probably going to be Pond Lake because I said mildly serious, and there are also many real world places with funny names (Looking at you Torpenhow Hill).

And so it begins this woldbuilding exercise, with a map and a dream.

Dieses kleine Dorf war eine Trainingsrunde mit einem guten Freund von mir. Ich wollte sehen, ob ihm das System gefällt, weil ich plane die Hauptstadt meine kleinen Pen and Paper Runde ebenfalls mit ihm zu entwerfen. Das System Ex Novo hat überzeugt und ich denke, dass das Ergebnis sich sehen lassen kann. Besonders schwierig fand ich das zerstörte Zeltlager, aber ich denke man kann es erkennen.

This 80 schilling scotch ale was amazing. So simple and so very true to the original style. I definitely need to brew one of these. @exnovobrew #beernerd #scotchale #80schilling #beer #craftbeer #pnw #wa #pdx #portland #exnovo #traditional #weekend #family #roadtrip (at Ex Novo Brewing)
