Today I needed a bit of encouragement so I reached out to the community I participate in daily and this happened. I'm touched 🥺 I ramble a lot about Cypher, I know, and it's always just silly vibes. But this feels like actually making a positive impact and that, my friends, is what I strive for 💖

Spinnygail is a Bookish Nerd who would rather be sleeping.

Back in CR1, I was a lost adept who plays too many games. Still working my way through the new CR2 character options.

Meadow is a bookish orc who reclaims books.

I am a [adjective][noun] who [verbs]. That is how Cypher does character creation. Example: Nina is a wholesome bean who runs TTRPGs professionally. 🤭 If you were a Cypher character, what would your sentence be? 👀 Let's do Fantasy edition first, I'll start: Nina is a Magical Girl that Spreads Joy 🤩

Cassidy is a Brave Woman who Protects Those Who Can't.

@montecookgames.com I haven't read the books from Roanhorse 👀 but you're getting me quite interested. Since you mentioned it's inspired in pre-columbian American folklore, is there, by any chance, anything Chilean-inspired? 👀✨

My landlord just requested that for his birthday party in November, I run a Magnus Archives one-shot. I'm a happy bean 🤩❤️✨

You know me, you know my passions, someone made this meme for me because of it 😅 It is, indeed, my favorite lol!

What is your favorite meme/Onion headline about your profession?

Last Saturday, I ran a Magnus Archives oneshot at my local TTRPG community event. After that, I wrote this blog post: I Run Games In Spanish, And I Wish There Were More Game Translations Into Spanish. 😋

if i ever participate in a ttrpg campaign i would want to make a character who is as much like a straight up looney tunes character as the game mechanics would allow

People outraged about an old building in France burning down are going to be devastated when they find out about the destruction in Palestine. Any day now. Aaaany day now.

I've been running a Cypher game in which player characters were crew of a space ship that's collapsing, so they're now stranded on an unknown planet. We've been using the resource points to unlock new tech for their settlement. 1/2

I have already started playing with the campaign settings and actually sent some feedback on the CU server, then last night I noticed the change was made with my suggestion and made me feel so special 😆💖 it's really amazing, I can't wait to have EVEN MORE CYPHER GAMES!!! 🤩

NEW FEATURE SPOTLIGHT! 💡 Launching a sci-fi campaign with a space opera feel—but want to pull in a few types and foci with a hard sci-fi vibe? Launch your campaign, specify the character options you’re allowing, and then invite your players. 1/2

Wanna play a #TheMagnusArchives campaign? 👀 The podcast will be canon in the world of the game, the characters are TMA fans who join a journalism club at college, and while in the process of fucking around the supernatural, they find out it's all real. Set in and influenced by Chile's folklore too 👀
