Paranoia's another one where I use a wrestling analogy. The GM should be an asshole in Paranoia, but in a kayfabe way. Not an actual dick to the players, a fun villain to suspend your disbelief and shake your fist.

Colostrum is a crazy word. Like the great lord of a diary empire. Oh also I'm a father now.

Well obviously Snail Knox is a code name for a spy in an anthropomorphic cold war thriller. The Snail Knox fastest before the fall.

A scareman -- a giant, stuffed crow created to scare humans out of gardens and fields -- given eternal life by a witch. Can only love, can never hold. He is too soft. :(

You got a game! Pitch the game: "Thorncrown Sparrow"

The Wildsea (Felix Isaacs, 2023)

Full Send is about the beauty of nature, and how we pay dearly to master it. It’s about the way that capitalism degrades the things we love. It’s about the relationship between friendship and competition, and the price of sharing your passion. It has 29 hours left to fund. Help me make it real.

Bunch of free stock character art so yoy dont have to use generated slop for your ttrpg games💚 Appreciate any reposts ko-fi.com/s/864047fc73

Also I'm incredibly biased but I think this just might be the best game. An RP forum, where my personal is myself as an angsty teen, and we're collecting creating the mythos of a band's 15 mins of fame?? Incredible.
