Hello!

Well, I'm here! I haven't had a Tumblr in forever and don't know much about it now, but I know there are familiar faces and people I'd love to get to know here.

This blog is going to be dedicated to the world of ttrpgs, mostly the indies. I might talk about other media that inspires me or hype up the occasional indie video game, but most posts will be about the world of indie table top roleplaying games, including showing off what I've made.

My games often include themes of exploring identity, self-care, liberation, transformation, community, and anti-fascism. Even when I'm just making games to have a good time or emulate something I love, I think it's likely at least one of these themes comes through somewhere.

Besides all of that, my work is probably the best way to get to know me. All of it can be found at mitchelldaily.itch.io. Check out some of my personal favorites and most popular games below.

Tiniest Wizard is a business-card sized games where you throw the card around your physical space and use the real world (from a tiny wizard’s perspective) as inspiration for your adventure’s setting. Based on feedback, I think of all my games, this one has brought people the most joy.

Where the Sky’s as Red as Honey started as a game jam entry where games were made to go along with covers others created. It follows a hive society after the death of their queen experiencing what it means to be free for the first time. Each character a player creates has goals and values that conflict with other characters, creating tension without a GM as the future of the Hive is played out across scenes. Their choices will decide if they embrace liberation or seek the stability and unity of direction of a new queen, if they will face threats with violence or with diplomacy, and if they will restore their failing home or seek a future under a new sky. This is probably one of my prettiest and most thematically complex games.

No Nut November: Squirrels of the Post-Apocalypse started its life as a joke as I was trying to come up with a November-themed game. It ended up being a lightly-crunchy survival game featuring mutated squirrels searching for nuts and fighting rat king cultists, carnage coyotes, and cybergeese. It ended up being equal parts cute, irreverent, and brutal, and is built on one of my favorite systems I’ve created.

Hotshots is a d20 starfighter game. It is pretty simple, very modular, and I think a lot of fun. I initially made it to run a starfighter race with my home group, but I also think it does "dungeon crawl, but with starfighters" like flying into the second Death Star pretty well. While it is setting agnostic, through adventures I've written for it and other spin-offs, it is spawning quite the galaxy.

The Keuppia

Crewed by pirates seeking fame, fortune, and unsuspecting merchants.

The general shape of this ship was inspired by artwork of the Discril-class attack cruisers seen in Cracken's Rebel Operatives, a 1994 expansion for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.

Built in July 2021 as one of three starfighters using white as a primary color.

Is statfighter a star trek term? If so how old were you when you got into star trek?

Nope. An 80s scifi movie called The Last Starfighter. My dad has a collection of movies (this was in the VHS era), and it was one of our go-tos. I can't count how many times I saw it as a kid.

There's a thing in it: "Greetings, Starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada."

I've stolen nearly every word in that sentence for a roleplay I'm in. It's much easier for me to steal names than come up with them.

I don't remember when I got into Star Trek. During TNG, before DS9. My parents were divorced, I'd watch reruns with my mom and stepdad on weekdays and new episodes with my dad on weekends.

Republic System Defender starfighters were a type of craft used by the New Republic. An improved version of the ATL Interceptor, Defenders were not particularly impressive in comparison to advanced starfighters of their time, but were a vast improvement to the aging starfighters of the New Republic navy. Their maneuvering jets allowed them to perform turns and tricks that would destroy a normal starfighter.

You know what weird thing Star Frontiers, a science fiction game about space exploration, was lacking for three years of its existence? Rules for space ships. Knight Hawks fixed that in 1983.

Well, not 100% true. As you saw yesterday, the mini-module that accompanied the screen touches on an aspect of space combat, as does the module Sundown on Starmist. But that isn’t exactly the robust set of rules you’d expect for a space-based science fiction RPG in the year of our Return of the Jedi.  

Knight Hawks delivers a suite of info on both star fighters and larger capital ships and is pretty satisfying for the time. As it says on the box, the ship combat is resolved using a tactical hex-based board game (it is designed as a stand-alone, so you can just play the ship battles if you like). It is fine, but a bit too wargame-y for my particular tastes. It is a lot simpler than Traveller, though!

Thing I have a hard time wrapping my brain around: despite all the capital ships being depicted horizontally, the inside decks are arranged perpendicular to the ship’s axis because they launch and fly like rockets. So, you know how the Millennium Falcon is basically one deck and you can walk from the cockpit to the engines in the back? Not so for Star Frontiers. You need a lot of ladders and elevators to get from the bridge (the top) to the engines (the bottom) in that cruiser on the cover. Which makes some sense, because acceleration would provide gravity. I think. It honestly hurts my head to think about it.

Anyway, I think the cover painting is fun, because it isn’t the sort of thing you usually see Elmore doing, and I think he does it pretty well.

Hey guys, I suppose this could count as an introduction post so I guess I better just get into it ^(❀)^

My name is Mio, my pronouns are He/Him and I’m a writer which I hopefully use this account to show my work off.

I am a big nerd hence why i am using this platform to show off my passions and hopefully make an impact, even if it is a small one. I write fanfiction, cosplay, rant and offer a safe space for anyone.

I shall hopefully be making content about most of the fandoms I am interested and involved in, maybe even making content I would die to see yet cannot find. I’ll tag some topics/fandoms so you should know what to expect and maybe even stick around for.

Quick heads up before I head out as it is late for me,(But What Else Could You Expect From Someone On Tumblr), this is a safe space as I mentioned earlier.

The following are things that are totally welcomed and safe here (there will always be warnings of course)

LGBTQ+

Mental illness

Creativity and expression

Diversity

PoC

Free expression (NOT if inappropriate or Triggering)

And the following are things that will NOT be tolerated on my page

Bullying (of any shape or kind)

Harassment

Purposely Triggering content

Homophobic contnet

Transphobic contnet

Racism

Hate (towards a person, an opinion, a subject, a fandom, or anything)

Spiders (most of the time. I’m a little bitch okay?)

And I suppose that wraps up most of what to expect here. I curse, I write and read smut, I have opinions and im doing this both for myself and whoever wants to stick around. I know most of the things I mentioned just before are common things but I just wanted to clarify just for safety.

I hope you stick around to see and hopefully enjoy my content, thank you for reading. Remember to get at least 5 hours oF sleep, drink water and remind yourself that you are amazing and worth it. ^^

TIE/sr starfighters, also known as TIE scouts, were a type of reconnaissance fighter used by the Empire. Possessing hyperdrive and advanced sensors, TIE scouts were used to go far into unexplored territory and report back with quality information on targets. A civilian model of the vessel was also produced.

I Don’t Intend to Suffer Any Longer ll Extra Fic! Bo-Katan Week Day 7: Free Day

Title: I Don’t Intend to Suffer Any Longer Rating: T Ship: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Satine Kryze Characters: Bo-Katan Kryze, Satine Kryze, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker Series: This Life is Mine (Bo-Katan Week 2021) Collection: Obitine Cave Fam Summary:  Bo-Katan knows that when she doesn't feel safe, she doesn't sleep. She so rarely feels safe, that even visiting her sister's family on Tatooine leaves her feeling unsafe and refusing to sleep. However, on this particular trip, that changes. ll Extra fic for Bo-Katan Week Day 7: Free Day Author’s note: So this is actually based on a roleplay universe a bunch of my friends and I created, and I got permission from them to create a little fanfiction universe based in it. I adore the AU we created and I'm so excited to bring this world into my writing. Also, I felt kinda bad that my last day of Bo-Katan week was smut, so here’s an extra fic for all of you Bo-Katan fans!! I had a blast with this week! Thank you all for sticking with me!

Tagging: @bokatanweek

Read here or under the cut

Bo-Katan got the ship ready to land as she lowered into the atmosphere of the most backwater planet she could think of; Tatooine. She never understood why both Satine and Obi-Wan chose this planet to settle down on, and raise their young adopted son; Luke. It kept them safe, which to her, was the most important thing.

Yet despite all of it, she never felt safe enough to get rest while she was there.

She still felt uncertain with Obi-Wan, still trying to get accustomed to working with a jedi like him. Her sister knew this well, which was while she questioned it, she never judged her sister for not  sleeping while she was on world. It was something she wished she could do, but sleep never came to her while she was there.

Wherever Bo was, if she didn’t feel safe, she wouldn’t sleep or her sleep would be plagued with nightmares. Even places she had been dozens of times, like the main Nite Owl base could cause her to become anxious and prevent her from sleeping. If they got a new member, or if they had recently had a close call. She became used to working on limited sleep, if she ever slept in general.

As she landed on the created landing platform, she picked up her helmet off the console. She would only hope her sister didn’t see that she had bags under her eyes from the stress she was under and sleepless nights. She hid a yawn as she walked down the ramp, only to get slammed into by a four year old, seeing her sister and her husband walking up towards her.

“Auntie Bo!” She smiled despite her exhaustion, lifting Luke up to set him on her hip. She pressed a kiss to his head. “Welcome home, Auntie Bo!”

Her heart warmed at the greeting, still unbelievable that she had a home that wasn’t a military base. Her sister and family actually had a place for her to stay, and wanted her there.

“Hello, Bo.” Satine walked up and wrapped her arms around Bo to try and hug her without crushing Luke. “How long are you going to be here this time?”

“I’ve got three days of leave before I have to return to base.”

“Awww,” Luke whined as Bo set him down. “Why can’t you stay longer, Auntie?”

“I’ve got people to save, kiddo.” She didn’t want him knowing just what she was doing when she wasn’t on world. At least not while he was this young. She knew her sister would frown at the consideration that she wanted to tell him of violence. Best not to let her know that she was planning on buying him a dagger for his birthday this year. She got one when she was this young from her parents, so it wouldn’t hurt to get him one as well.

He pouted but hurried into the cave where he lived. Obi-Wan smiled at Bo, clapping a hand on her shoulder.

“I’m glad to see you in one piece, Bo-Katan.” He smiled “Perhaps once Luke goes down for the night, you can tell us about what you’ve been doing and the progress on Mandalore.”

“Of course,” She promised as she followed them inside. On the table was already a full meal prepared. She was still not used to someone preparing a meal like this for her. She typically made herself something quick and easy, or just resorted to eating rations to get buy. A real home cooked meal like this was rare for her. Not that she was complaining necessarily, and she knew Satine had become a relatively good chef in the time since they were younger.

They all took their seats at the table, Luke making sure to sit next to Bo. She knew how much the kid missed her and she had to admit, she missed him too. It killed her to be off world more and more, finding less chances to come back and visit her family. At least for now, this was the way it was going to have to be.

“Is Korkie gonna come visit us anytime soon?” Luke asked, and Bo sighed. She looked over at Satine, who was pointedly not looking at her anymore, but she knew she was listening. Satine had still been keeping Korkie’s true identity a secret, but she always worried about the state of her son now that he had joined the Nite Owls in their fight to reclaim Mandalore.

“He wanted to join me this time, but he went on a supply run and won’t be back on base for another few days.”

“Oh…” Luke pouted as he took a bite of his food, before launching into a description of what he had been up to for so long since she had come to visit. The story was disjointed, but Bo could keep up fairly well. She listened to his story, smiling to herself as he went. She caught that he was making friends with some of the other kids, though always under the watchful eye of Satine when they went out. They had been to Mos Eisley a little bit more frequently, but lost what they did there in his rapid talking.

“Luke, you need to not talk with your mouth full,” Satine chided him, and at least he had the chance to look a little sheepish as he stopped talking briefly to eat a few bites.

“Sorry, Mamma.” He said, and Bo could see that same stunned face she made every time Luke called her that. She knew that Satine and Obi-Wan had told Luke the story of his birth parents, of Anakin and Padme and all they had accomplished. She had almost expected Luke to stop calling them mamma and papa after that, but the affection of them as his parents remained.

She knew anything different would tear Satine’s heart apart.

“Let the kid talk, Satine, I’m here so infrequently. I want to hear his stories.”

Luke beamed and launched into another story, this one about his recent love of reading some of his mamma’s old books. Bo had been bringing Satine some old Mandalorian children’s tales that Satine would find appropriate to read for Luke so he could learn. She knew there wasn’t much she could do for Obi-Wan’s past, but had found books that he would approve of for him to read to Luke as well.

They had been trying to get him to learn Basic and Mando’a, and possibly Huttese as well though neither were fluent in that.

But it was a connection to his father nonetheless.

As dinner wound down, they retired to a seating area to continue talking. Bo had taken up a seat on the couch with Luke and was playing with his starfighter toys, engaged in a playful fight as Satine sat comfortably on Obi-Wan’s lap as she watched her sister interact with Luke.

Paying attention to this caused her to notice just how Bo’s movements started to become sluggish. Her eyelids lowered as Bo let the starfighter drop to her side.

“Auntie?”

Bo’s eyes opened briefly, and she looked over at her nephew.

“I’m sorry, kiddo.” She ruffled his hair, and picked the toy up to continue playing with him once again.

As they played, and eventually just sat as Bo started to read one of the books she brought for him. She felt Luke grow heavy against her and she smiled, her eyelids lowering as well. Her arm wrapped around Luke’s shoulder and her head slowly fell to rest against the armrest of what she was sitting on. It wasn’t long before both of them started to fall asleep.

Satine looked over at the couch and gently nudged her husband to look at them.

“Obi, look.” Satine’s voice was soft to try and keep from waking Bo by mistake. “She’s actually sleeping.”

“Forgive me, darling, but I would assume Bo-Katan would sleep, it is quite late.”

“Obi, in the years my sister has come to visit us, how frequently would you say she came to sleep?” When silence greeted her, she continued. “When she doesn’t feel safe, Bo won’t sleep. She knows she has nightmares, and knows they’re more common when she doesn’t feel safe, so she won’t sleep. The fact that she’s willingly fallen asleep means she’s finally starting to feel safe while she’s here.”

Satine looked once again at Bo, who seemed so much younger now that she was asleep. The stress had melted away on her face. While she knew that they were twins, Bo had been graced with a younger face, so she always reminded Satine of when they were children and Bo would fall asleep next to her.

Finally, her sister felt safe enough in the same place as her where she would willingly sleep like this.

The thought brought tears to her eyes, and she felt her heart warm.

“Should we carry them to bed?” Obi-Wan finally spoke up once again “I don’t want them to get a crick in their necks.”

“Don’t worry about it, Obi.” Satine reassured him. “Bo used to be able to sleep pretty much anywhere once she was comfortable. Besides, I don’t think she will be able to fall asleep once again if we accidentally wake her. Let them sleep. Luke will be happy to sleep close to his aunt since Bo is so rarely here.”

“I’ll get them a blanket.” He said as he went to the spare bedroom that Bo never used. In the meantime, Satine got up and went to brush her sister’s hair out of her face.

“I love you, Bo’ika. I’m so happy to see you finally feeling comfortable here. This is your home too and we will keep you safe so you can always get a full night’s rest while you are here.”
