#RPGaDay2026 Day 2: "Stature" A little route one perhaps but, after watching Jason and the Argonaunts for last month's Movie Monday, I can't stop thinking about this guy.

#RPGaDAY2026: Day 5 Burden It is also Witchcraft Wednesday. Every witch carries a burden. For some it is knowledge. For many it is power. And for others it is the terrible understanding that the world is older, stranger, and crueler than most people know. theotherside.timsbrannan.com/2026/08/rpga...
I was/am a hard core TTRPG guy, but when Vampire TM came out, I was largely concerned with other things (grad school then marriage, mortgage, kids...) So, for me Natalie P's insights here are known to me, but only as an observer. I would love to know more some day.
I've got something in my brain about #ttrpg players and parasocial relationships, but I'm not in the right headspace. We've all witnessed the rise in a parasocial relationship with D&D5e alone, buoyed by Critical Role and a few key others. But that pales in the shadow of Vampire: The Masquerade.
#RPGaDay2026 - Day 5: Meet Barnold Silverbeak, a librarian with a taste for knowledge.
RPGaDay 2026 – Day 5
Intellect & Burden - Barnold Silverbeak, Lawful Neural Owlin Many residents of the City have come from elsewhere, but not many have come from other worlds. Maly has come from the magic-infused realm of Arcavios, specifically the university of Strixhaven, with the goal of making knowledge more accessible to the populace. To this end, he has taken up the role of overseeing the City’s main library.

Hello my friends! Today was gonna have a goofy little comic strip of these two toxic idiots but I'm afraid I couldn't manage it. Consider this an IOU - once the bandages come off, I'll make the doodle anyhow. dungeonsandpossums.com/2026/08/rpga... Click through for #RPGaDay2026 Day 4 - Charm!
RPGaDay 2026 #4 – Charm - Dungeons & Possums
Another day, another prompt! Today's RPGaDay magic word is "Charm", which is an easy one to ascribe to charismatic characters but is much more fun to define along the lines of classic D&D spells! With...

Day 4: Charm The most charming GMs I know share one trait. It’s not that they’re the best storyteller, top improviser, or most confident. It’s simply that they’re genuinely excited to be there. They love the game, love seeing players surprise them, and that enthusiasm is contagious. #RPGaDAY2026

I grabbed it and let you all know what I think later. Likely next week. Looks like fun!
For those looking for The Occult Detective Roleplaying Game: a.co/d/0iVOLEVE #rpgaday2026
It’s day 4 of #RPGaDay2026, and if we’re designing a character that meets the prompts of “Intellect”, “Charm” and “Full of Grace”, I expect you’re probably building another spy then. So let’s not do that. Instead, let’s look at a game that combines those qualities in a most pleasing way. 1/
4.) Un momento de encanto que salió mal: Hace un millón de años, los PJs estaban hablando muy amigablemente con una anciana que en realidad era una bruja. Suceden cosas, la bruja ataca a un PJ. Respuesta del jugador: “¿Pero qué hace, buena señora?” #RPGaDAY2026

Day 3: Poise. Keeping you wits about you, having grace under pressure, is a key component to most RPGs, but especially in The Occult Detective Roleplaying Game because, let’s face it — high strangeness is a sticky wicket. #rpgaday2026
Every dungeon crew needs a sword trainer. The Deft Delver's is either a runaway officer of the crown or pretending to be one, regardless though they're damn good with a sword: stackofgoats.studio/blog/rpgaday... #art #illustration #drawing #worldbuilding #ttrpg #rpg #rpgaday #rpgaday2026

#RPGaDay2026 Day 3 ALT, Poise: How does one character present themselves? Bob Dixon, a character in #MagetheAscension. A historian and linguist. When around most people, a dignified and stable scholar, however, when mixing with Awakened and other Night Folk, a hyper conjecturing obsessive. 1/2
#4: CHARM #RPGaDay2026 Charm spells. They get tossed around without thinking about them. Any potential social friction. Charm. Charm. If you stop to think about it for just a moment that shit is horrifying.

#RPGaDAY: Day 4 – Charm (Intellect; Grace; Vagabonds of Dyfed)
The fourth day of #RPGaDay2026 gives us the prompt Charm. This week's responses are all under the influence of the weekly filter of Intellect. The daily filter sticking its nose in on this Tuesday is Grace. I will endeavor not to turn this post into one about our Doberman Pinscher rescue of the same name, but there will probably be a picture. No apologies. She embodies her name, is incredibly charismatic, and is one of the smartest dogs I know. Ok. There will definitely be.... there already is a picture.

#rpgaday2026 4) CHARM In one memorable game the whole party became secretly charmed one at a time over a couple of sessions. We had to testify in court on behalf of the only un-charmed member. He was genuinely shocked when we all said he was guilty and pleaded for the maximum sentence!
It was this time last week that it occurred to me I might have fuel to create new #SanctionRPG Genre Setups for the whole of #RPGaDay2026. The prompts, from here, chunk up into groups of three with one spare. Would that work? Could it? Was it asking too much? www.boreders.com/2026/08/rpga...

#RPGaDay2026 Day 4: "Charm" My mind immediately went to @josiahmoore.bsky.social's Tiny Tables for Mausritter and the carms sold by the Merfolk traders.
Day Four of #RPGaDAY2026 and I'm continuing to create NPCs for my game based upon hastily drawn Tarot cards inspired by the prompt. Today's prompt is CHARM, which is quite apt for the game setting!! www.autocratik.com/2026/08/rpga...
#RPGaDay2026 Day 4 - Charm I have a soft spot for charming games, wholesome stories with low stakes, problems overcome by friends working together. Camp Flying Moose does this well, with adventures in a girls' summer camp, but also Golden Sky Stories with its cutesy anthro-animals antics.
#RPGaDay2026 Day 4 - Charm. We once played an emergency replacement session where the Mcguffin was a charm bracelet, and one of the charms happened to be a One Ring equivalent (I think it was a silver elephant). Much cheesy cliched fun was had at the expense of Tolkien, Lewis and the rest 😁
