#wipwednesday #ttrpg work: the vibes of "Roll for Death" feel right where I want them. The big thing I'm working on is "Do I stick to the bit, or pull an Orville and just make a good product that's its own thing?" Ironically, this is what most people go through with making DnD their own.
#osr #rpgdesign : As I work on Roll for Death, I'm thinking about another classic gripe; Fighters can do more stuff, Wizards can do cool stuff. Do I keep doing the bit and keep fighters super simple, or do I give fighters effects, even if they're simple like Stark in Frieren?
I feel like if we're using Vancian magic in our #osr games, let's make it COOL, right? For Roll for Death, Everyone starts out with 10 Blood (up to 12 if you're an athlete). Arcanists wager Blood for power (Which is why mages are easy to beat up). Art by Strega Wolf.
I coded a web app that xerox's your images for fun! Just drag an image in and play with the dials. If nothing shows up (or it's all black) you may want to play with the threshold (first slider). Press "S" to save the image! editor.p5js.org/Chaoclypse/f...
Since dark and brooding #ttrpg content is in right now, I present one of my own. It will be a D6 system (cause if it's good enough for chainmail, it's good enough for fantasy systems), and it will have a detailed Justification table explaining why it's cool to beat up that guy and rob him blind.
Just because I love numbers: There are 1.4 million people living in the Bronx. The Bronx has about 200 large grocery stores and 2600 Bodegas/ smaller stores (cocktail napkin math). Mamdani's adding one store. The location it's going to is about 40~% of the population is below the poverty line.
#art #wipwednesday make the weird thing. Put bizarre energy into the world. Leave the world a little bit different.
#selfpromosunday: I'm trying to pace myself on the new idea cause HD brain apparently has to get snuck up on. Good news, I think I have a solid "Vibes page" for right after the table of contents.
#selfpromosaturday #ttrpg So, I think I may have had an idea. Art by Vagelio Kaliva and David Revoy, Front cover border by Alderdoodle.

#wipwednesday : Have you ever wanted to try 1920s Cosmic Horror inspired by the Morty's Mindblower "True Level"?
30 minute #ttrpg cover to try and scratch the itch my HD brain has. I'm purposefully not continuing to noodle with it, this is just "What can I do with a deadline?"
He's credited by Japan's cultural historians as having personally saved enormous amounts of folklore from being completely lost, too. Hundreds of yokai legends are only known now because he collected them from remote communities that are themseles often gone.

Here's 6 different gaming book covers I made with entirely free stuff. "Not having a budget" = Skill Issue 🤷
So to hell with artists and ethics and your own creativity, I guess. Another one to block, and not to read or support. Ugh. STOP USING SLOP MADE FROM STOLEN MATERIAL THAT’S DRINKING ALL OUR WATER.
Building a character for Brütalis is super easy! Pick a Power Source and pick a Calling:
