@SJohnRoss I've had far too little of that sort of thing in my games, mainly because I've generally played in fairly short adventures or else rather driven games like "Masks of Nyarlathotep".
@SJohnRoss Absolutely, but if you start getting involved in marriage and intrigue there's the whole "Whoops! the world has ended!" issue to deal with; and nothing spoils a honeymoon like the subjugation of mankind by eldritch gods.
Biiiiig Rima.
My #DnD character, Rima Sahr, is a rune knight fighter. Rune Knights studied the magic of giants and have the ability to grow a size larger in combat. If you then case enlarge/reduce on them, they double in size again.
I have a 3D printer.
@Artemis201 I’m looking forward to these massive figures. It’s fun that you can literally just scale up your figurine instead of resort to a torn sheet of paper that’s kinda big enough.
@jonathankoren I've got the next size up printing right now. We'll see how it turns out.
I'll probably wait on the gargantuan one. I've still got 13 levels before I get there, so a good year and a half before I expect to need it.
I'll be sure to post the huge mini when it's finished
Hey did you guys know that if you miscategorize a modern rules-light RPG as "Other OSR Games" you can make RPG fans very upset?
Our bad. Thank you all for the grace of forgiveness. We are humbly reclassifying our game as "Other d10 System" and sincerely apologize for any distress we've caused. It was not our intention, and we'll be more careful in the future.
@rivetgeek@alxd That was my reasoning, but after consulting Reddit I learned that my definition doesn't match what most people in DriveThruRPG are expecting. So we fixed it.
@lairofsecrets Unboxing this game was like unboxing a new Mac. A lot of thought went into the design of the box itself (this is not something you simply throw away after you open it).
And the game books themselves are excellent. After a year of working with the PDFs, it's awesome to finally have these books in hand. And after restraining myself from reading the mission PDFs, I'm excited to tear into the paper versions.
Continuing to replace the AI-generated images in my game now that I understand how problematic it is.
It's turning out to be making my game better. Below is a comparison between the AI image I'd generated (on the left) for a snowy outpost and what I drew (on the right).
The AI version is evocative enough, I suppose, but it's obviously AI generated. And the image on the right is MUCH closer to what I envisioned for the scene (despite my art skills). I like mine better.
If you haven't yet had a look, check us out now! The book is free as in speech, and free as in beer! And if you like what you see, please rate us, review us, and tell your friends! (or foes!)
I updated the primary LLM behind The Library of Unwritten Books from GPT-3.5 to GPT-4o, and I have to say, it really upped its game. You should check it out, share your favorite books, and tell all your friends.
What is The Library? From my 10yo, "Wait, is this a story or a game?" To which the correct answer is, "Yes." That's exactly the response I hoped for when creating the library. 😀

Currently reading this history of the music hall, the British counterpart of vaudeville and precursor to variety. My favourite RPGs tend to be things like "Call of Cthulhu" and "Forgotten Futures" with a strong Victorian to Georgian (George V, that is) tone and history, but I often feel that the popular culture of the time is ignored when it should be a vital part of the world and the characters. NPCs ought to be playing records, going to the pictures, whistling the latest hits, referencing movie stars and stage actors, encouraging the PCs to read a new novel they're enamoured with—or recommending they avoid one they dislike.
A few sentences here and there, a name dropped, an encounter when shopping for sheet music or looking at the posters advertising coming acts… it doesn't take much to add to a great deal of flavour to the world and make it feel alive, rather than like those cheap cartoons where the only people moving or even present in a scene are the PCS.
@BigJackBrass you'd love this book. The best background for flavor and color in the urban Victorian era I've ever read. I got it dirt cheap used. A+ world builder fodder
