we should have stopped feeding it.
who was the guy who said every indie game is named either "empoisoned" or "swumbles big jumble" . i swear this is a real thing someone said
My most played TTRPG this year was Monsterhearts, followed by DnD 5e, Mothership and LANCER.
My most played genre is CW Drama
I have spent not as many hours as I would have liked to playing TTRPGs
My most rolled die was the humble d6 probably
My most frequent roll was a "2"
I created 3 new player characters and approximately 12 new NPCs
I reused 3 NPCs from previous games!
I re-entered the galaxy of Harmony Gold for a fourth time. Pretty popular!
I have commissioned 1 piece(s) of art containing PCs or NPCs from TTRPGs
I drew 6 maps this year! My favorite was "Chiron TL-34"

The one page rpg I played was called “Wonder,” and it was about a band working to make one last one hit wonder. Our band was made up of me “Jerk Jacob” on Keys, Dylan “Dynamic Mess” on Bass, and Loklin “Hopilite Harry” on Lead Guitar. Our band was called “Robot War,” and we worked to make an 80′s ballad. We decided to divide the writing in half to speed it up, so we made a 12 line song instead of the 24 line one. Each musical instrument gets different restrictions on how they can add to the song, which introduced specific challenges. Also, whenever you disagree with someone’s lyrics, you mark down a tension, and when you hit three marks, you flip out literally and leave the band. My character would only approve a lyric if they could change at least one word, and once Jerk Jacob got fed up, Mellow Mary popped in and convinced the other two members that the song should end with accepting all people on earth as one person, unified in their love for each other. The song lyrics slowed down as we got near the end, but it was fun to do, and definitely wouldn’t be my first choice for a one page rpg.
Calvin and Hobbes - It’s July Already
I will do this
Play your favorite TTRPG, but with Calvindice rules:
• Make up every rule as you go along, starting at session zero
LEGO TTRPG with supplements for all the different themes.
hmm yes evil librarian
Monster Manual entries often (especially in earlier editions) have throw away lines like "Betentacled Faceslurpers are often hired by evil historians for their ability to recall the memories of every pereon whose face they've slurped", or "Literary Horrors often make their nests among well stocked bookshelves and for this reason evil librarians will employ them as security" and then never elaborate on what these evil versions of regular professions are like.
Fix this by running a game where the entire party is comprised of evil versions of mundane jobs. If they won't tell you what an evil cartographer or archivist even does you'll find out yourself.
Corpse Wrangler sounds so fun
Necromancer?
More like "Cowboy for Corpses"!
is your house (or apartment, or rv, or a house you really like from down the street, or a house from a story) haunted? do you wish it was? for a small fee, i'll put ghosts in it for you!
i'm trying out a google form for commissions this time around rather than a first-come-first-serve model. this form will be open for a limited time. probably till around the end of may. i'll have a handful of commission slots to begin with, and i'll pull from the form response pool once more slots start opening up.
want a haunted house? fill out the form here! (reblogs are super appreciated to spread the word! 🫀)
