I short-circuited my own wiring by picking an instinct-based caster (in Daggerheart) so I turn me off and let Calyx DO THE THINGS, and the bigger, the better
being fairly new to ttrpgs as a real-life conflict-averse scaredy-cat has been A Whole Experience, I will admit
ha ha CUTE
still giving as much of my grocery/household/necessities/splurge money to Costco whenever possible
Not everything is about that. I mean, MOST things are about that, but not this thing.
I appreciate the heavy lifting those tactical quotation marks are doing.
(got to be a dragon-wrangler in #daggerheart last night, so I feel justified in adding that to my business card)
The tiny elephant pic book I wrote back in the day spent a lot of time as "#1 in Dental Caries" which is extra funny, because I'm married to a dentist
It's one of my favorite things about it, honestly, when I spend so much of my day job revising, refining, rewriting. There is something inherently exhilarating about *letting go* of that in favor of the joy of the story.
Roll 4d6 and I'll give you your Tunnels & Trolls: A New Age party name
OH, HECK YEAH ๐

My squishy little sorcerer needs to take a couple months of time-skip to learn some Important Stuff, but every time I think about her not checking in on all the dangling plot threads that might also be on fire and connected to sticks of arcane dynamite, my brain coughs this up

I buy 5 (but in black) in bulk after YEARS of devotion to 2, so I felt this.
GusTheFox: It's just one fucking thing after another for eels isn't it? Headline: Cocaine in the River Thames is 'another problem eels don't need', says expert
Today in "linguists are not kidding when they say that language enables you to understand sentences that have never been said before in the entirety of human history"
#TTRPGPITCH "Creature Comforts"
Monsters live in dark, dank, cold dungeons. Deliveries are slow, and plagued by bandits. So when a lich wants better lighting for its library or a rakshasa needs overstuffed furniture, they turn to YOU design, transport, and install what they need.
yeaaaah, I am guessing the forecast would be "cloudy with an extreme chance of chaos"
...is there a term for when/if a GM puts together a game with players from their different tables? Kind of like a quangle, but with folks who might not necessarily know each other beforehand...
asking for a friend setting a box trap with bait like cookies and shiny things and cash, if necessary
It's not fandom to shit on something because you wish it was like the thing you love and the thing you've made up in your head about the thing you loveโฆ
That's haterdom. You're a hater. They aren't gonna see your video and suddenly change it.
Spock would not be proud of you. And neither am I. ๐๐พ ๐
I am now legally obligated to rate game-recipes according to how many "raisins" they contain.
-when I say "I will not participate in any projects using AI at any stage of the process," I am not kidding, and I am also not being mean. It's a stipulation, and a lot of folks have them, and they need to be respected
-please remember that many working pros are happy to mentor, discuss aspects of the job, and answer questions, as long as our time is respected
adding this one, because I've participated in a number of projects like these over the years, and the chances of getting a "thank you" afterward are 50/50
-please give your students enough time to reach out, conduct interviews, schedule visits
And do this *keeping in mind* if the students are only allowed to do so during the one-hour window a day your class takes place. Also: time zones are a thing.
just a note for educators assigning projects to students that involve interviewing/shadowing any kind of pro on the job:
-please teach them how to write a polite query
This should include a greeting (using the pro's name, spelled correctly) and information about the project parameters
Writing is hard. Writing is great. Writing sucks. I love writing. I wish I could stop writing. I cannot stop writing. Please help. Please leave me alone, I have another 3 pages to get through. Please read my work. Please never perceive this garbage I've created. Respect me. Ignore me.
Pic book author here. I have two powerpoints I use for presentations: the journey "from imagination to page" for the 1st book, and a how-to for drafting a manuscript. Include silliness... the best laughs are for a gif of a My Little Pony frantically typing and a skeleton on a bench, "waiting."
