When you actually had regular weekly TTRPG sessions for weeks and weeks and then suddenly in the past month one person or another hasn't been able to make it... and you were right at the final boss fight for the adventure...

Small magicks: the way your dice seem multiply. How is it that I always find new ones in dark corners, under couch cushions, in pockets of disused backpacks, and in the hand of my 2 year old?

There are ways to… borrow drawing abilities.
For a small fee.
needing fan content from your private personal ttrpg game is hell. i finally folded and started writing my own fanfic about it (after getting everyone’s permission) and goddam, i know writing is hard and i already had so much respect for fic writers, but this is so hard dude. i don’t know how you fic writers do it.
on another note, i wish i had honed my drawing abilities more. there’s so many fan arts in my head that i have no way of executing.
#art is hard#and imagination is hard to share#and it’s honestly one of the best things about being an artist#when you get to help someone share their vision#ttrpg problems

Indie ttrpg designers
We seem to be back in the “dnd sucks why don’t you just play Other Games (yours)” and I have a single question for you in return
Do I get to roll a d20?
Because I like the d20
That shape pleases me
I do not wish to roll a random amount of d6s or d8s or any of them other fuckers
I wish to roll the d20 because icosahedrons please me
I will also accept d12 but the other shapes all have less mouthfeel so if that’s what your game’s based on, it is not for me
I’d also prefer more than four stats but I’m not gonna lie it is the shape of the math rocks so like
Rec your d20 based indie ttrpgs friends cuz every single one I’ve opened is them little cube fuckers or the double pyramid and I Require Round
#ttrpg#dnd#so many people so close to super good points about the problems with dnd#and then they go ‘and as an indie designer you should just play Other Games (mine)’#and like. it’s a good point. it also very clearly underlines that you’re marketing via negativity and i’d actually really rather just hear#how good your game is? complaining is not an access point to my wallet#for real tho rec list this shit#indie ttrpg#i have Math Rock Requirements and also i hate d10s for no discernable reason#i don’t like the rest as much but d10s man. i just. i hate em#they are Bad Shape#skinny tutu bitches#not even good for caltrops#xoxo fuck you d10s#i get the math for probability and shit is easier on smaller dice but have you considered:#d20 shape good#and also d20 easily maths into 100 for percent calculations#which is why it’s weird i hate d10s they’re the only other dice that don’t Fucking Suck to calculate percents from#i know a 13 on a d20 is 65% bad#the fuck is a 5 on a d8#(it’s 62.5 but that’s my point fuck decimals)

Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy portrays vampires really well for several reasons, but one of my favourites is that being an immortal creature of the night doesn't actually help with most day to day problems (and probably adds several more). Yeah, turn into a truck-sized bat monster all you like; rent is still due first of each month.
#eureka#eureka: investigative urban fantasy#ttrpgs#vampires#the system greatly encourages making sure your all-powerful monster characters still have mundane problems and worries#which helps develop them into much more complex and (imo) interesting personalities!

People saying that "playing dnd doesnt have to cost anything" and "it can be fun even without all the books and expensive maps and minis" may be right but have you seen some of the dice out there????? Fucking beautiful

Finally finished reading Legionnaire but unfortunately it set me back on my bullshit and I'm trying desperately to spare my tabletop group from it.
I need to just sketch more, it helps me remember how to draw like an actual frigging adult.
#lancer rpg#lancerrpg#lancer ttrpg#nhp#horus#didymos#emma tansy#sam#look i fought so hard to be normal#i was ready to write off the lich as spooky paracausal tech and leave it at that#and the DM was like no#if you want a haunted mech it has to have an NHP#so i'm like#OKAY#and now this is everyone's problem#the reality is that the dynamic between emma and sam is the everyday dynamic that exists between me and the DM#and he's an infuriating fae creature (affectionate)#anyway i'm still waffling on sam's didymos design#i'll get there one day#hey raccoon why does he project all yassified?#because his pilot is 18 that's why

had a dream that i made a new one page rules light ttrpg system where everyone was a wizard and you had to invent new spells on the fly except every spell name had to be formatted as "____ of ____" and the only strategy was deciding what you think the combination of words did and the gm also had to decide what they did on the fly. no one played it with me but it sounds fun honestly
#I CAST LOAF OF MEAT#I CAST BALL OF FIRE#maybe it would be more fun to have it so that every spell could only be cast once ever then the magic from that set of words was depleted#so you'd have to come up with more and more obscure word combinations to solve your problems#d&d#d&d 5e#ttrpg#dungeons and dragons#dnd#dnd5e#ttrpg community

No disrespect to people who like those pacifist community-building TTRPGs that get popular on itch.io or whatever but I can't play games that have no "knock this fool senseless" option
#sometimes violence DOES solve the problem#this post is a joke. postmodern ttrpg fans please don't be mad#wanderhome your art is gorgeous but i need the cute animals to be able to fight
