Bean is learning new meows at a great pace. At this rate, we expect her to say her first words in english within the next year or so. 😊

Yep! And only the GM has to pay for it, and everyone else can play along? Excellent 👌

In fairness if a robot screamed and showed it's butthole at me, I'd probably run away too.

So Foundry is definitely more complex than roll20- But I also think its SIGNIFICANTLY better. So much more control, much better performance, looks and feels so much better.

It's a worldbuilding day today it seems~! I'm gonna be puttering away at the main setting for Campaign 3, hammering out details, what have you.

What's everyone's plans for today? Y'all got some nice projects you're working on?

I know I harp on stuff like this quite a bit, but if you ONLY have goodie-goodie guards that are bright shining examples of law you are; One, lying to yourself by pretending that's realistic, And two, limiting yourself by sticking to "GUARDS = GOOD, BANDITS = BAD".

Yeah hey so I know that "keep politics out of my games" is one of those views that appears alot in the TTRPG Community, but uh- Guards, police, and other authorities shouldn't always be shown as good guys. Sometimes, they're just dudes who like to have and abuse power. ...much like in real life.

Remember, when running a TTRPG, if your players have been good, you can give them a new fucked up little guy for their PCs to force into being their new friend, as a treat.

The curse of a GM with a homebrew world-

I made all of this cool stuff but my players might not get over to that stuff this campaign, and the next campaign won't happen for like, A YEAR, but if I try to just squeeze the cool thing in there it won't make sense-

Better just make more stuff.

Tip from a long-time GM;

Can't do voices for those NPCs?

Alright, no big deal. Just describe how they talk. Do they stutter slightly? Do they have a deep, growly voice?

Hell, if you can even just do their mannerisms, it will add to the immersion quite a bit.

And if you AREN'T putting in magic items fitting for the characters, give them a way to "trade in" the stuff they ain't using.

TTRPG Worldbuilding Tip of the Day; Make your worlds weird. Your players are going to remember the bizarre landscapes and strange cultures much more than they will ever remember "Lord of The Rings, but I changed some stuff". Take a deep breath, jump right in, and make it weird.

I am very in favor of trans and queer people being accepted by society. I am also very opposed to that happening by way of us making ourselves smaller.

On one hand, I do love SnapCube's Sonic Adventure 2 live dub videos. On the other hand I can NEVER have an NPC say the phrase "I miss my wife, [PC NAME].", because I know exactly how they're gonna react.

Ahhh, back to DnD! For this week anyway. We're still with our party warlock's family house, and there may yet be time to embarrass him further in front of his parents and siblings, hehehe.

Session starts at 4pm ET, so tune in at twitch.tv/dicefunctional

I've never heard of a sociopath being "made"... Though it is also important to keep in mind that personality disorders do not always translate into bad people. There are perfectly nice, nonviolent people out there who would be diagnosed as psychopaths.

Also, psychopath / sociopath are both effectively the same thing, antisocial personality disorder, right? Or was that a misconception that I was told and wound up parroting?

Once we got keys to join BlueSky we basically just jumped ship and left completely. Our account is still *there*...but every time I pop by and see it's just littered with ads and bots? Yeah, makes it really easy to just stay away.

Yeah this is basically what I expected and why I routinely tell my buddies and others in the TTRPG Community to get the fuck off of Twitter. Like, yes, you have an audience there, I get it, so did we- But when it becomes completely useless, moving to a new social media will be even harder for you.

I use blender to help get ideas down for how NPC equipment looks.

This has resulted in great ideas, and fucking stupid ideas.

I don't think this is one of the greats.

Idk exactly why, but I love making mundane, relatively unimportant items into magic items.

Anyways, here's one I'm working on for campaign three for my players, a pack of Speakeasy Cigarettes!

Gonna go back through it with Blender and try and play with it a bit I think...

Last night on an art stream, we drew one of our druid's siblings! Xullna is a ballerina-inspired bard, and she can be VERY convincing.

See her and other delightful NPCs during our Actual Play, which streams basically every Saturday (including today) at 4pm ET at twitch.tv/dicefunctional

So one of my players, @heyimjill.bsky.social, drew up a recent encounter from our DnD game.

Here lies Dose, a man who by all means, should be dead, but is still forced to live due to the fungus that has infested him.

Kept alive for 237 years, 35 days, and 5 hours...

That is also a valid conclusion. Sometimes, you just don't need certain concepts, but the easiest way to figure that out is to think about how it would fit (or wouldn't)
