Tomorrow, we'll be hosting our fourth Bagong Laro RPG day (and the last one for the year). We'll have three tables: Gubat Banwa, Reach of the Roach God (using OSE) and A Goon's Guide to the Galaxy. (And if any Manileños see this, we've still got room forms.gle/16Sgkv6SVSEG... )

Old Lfrith repostback when we had weekly space oomfie

Played my first game of Fabula Ultima as player yesterday. My observations are much the same as with my first run with it as GM: it starts a bit slow but for this reason (among others), it's pretty easy to teach the game's elements. Lends itself well to arcs that are both narrative and ludic intros.

opening ko-fi sketches once again for my asthma medication. i appreciate anyone whose willing to support me 🙏 ko-fi.com/c/d6572f4dea

“whatever club he’s invited to join has been devalued by the invitation”

Something bouncing around in my head lately is an RPG with dungeon builds for the DM. To put it very roughly: what if a DM also had specific at-wills, encounters and dailies (yeah we're talking D&D 4e) to throw at the PCs which were also transparent to the players?

random thoughts on KDH convictions (in the vein of Rogue Trader) with respect to demon-hunting duties, Zoey is iconoclast, Mira is dogmatic, Rumi is heretical. (they all lean iconoclast by the end ofc)

Ok, @lumpley.bsky.social & I have been very up-front over the years on our sales data & etc, so here's a thing, & thanks Will, for bringing it up. Starting a career in #ttrpgs means making games. it means writing in a goggle doc or notebook, trying mechanics with a friend, finding 3 folks to play.

I also ought to repost this crowdfunding campaign. It's at 50%! If you have the means, help me pay for my college tuition fees! It would mean the world to me ko-fi.com/goobernuts/g...

Listening to people say D&D has no negative bearing on the indie creative space at large has me tweaking. This is a creative monopoly unlike anything seen before or ever. I have a list of marketing outreach channels where 95 out of a 100 contacts exclusively cover D&D/OSR (D&D adjacent)...

Seems a bit of an oxymoron

Fabula Ultima prep Player: What's a magisphere? Me: A product to rival a Knorr cube.

Yesterday's Fabula Ultima game fell through, so we did a Stewpot one-shot! I'm still pretty awkward around more freeform RP, but the tavern provides a nice, solid anchor for it. (True to my forever-GM instincts, I am perhaps most intrigued by the chance to RP recurring NPCs ehehe~)

Catch us this November! I'll be running my space-faring game, A Goon's Guide to the Galaxy, and having players do sand squid catching in a Desert Moon of Karth-based adventure!

We are running a local game day for 20-25 people mid-November, and I am so looking forward to playing with new folks. We're playing Mangayaw with @goobernuts.itch.io Gubat Banwa, Reach of the Roach God, A Goon's Guide to the Galaxy with @johnerrwin.bsky.social and What Dust Remains.

It bears repeating:

"Some of our most fun / most enjoyed / most memorable sessions and experiences have been the ones where we went shopping and improv'd out conversations, or attended festivals and played games, or had a Regency-era ball and played through that" ok! I believe you! Have you considered WHY?

#Promptober is here! This time I included two free spaces, for people to make whatever they want (or to even take that day to rest). As usual, please use the #promptober or #ttrpgpromptober tags when you post! please also don't feel shy about tagging me in them so I can reskeet.

Hoy Kadungganan! An update to the slew of events that the development team is going to attend. See you there! 👀 #ArtPH #Art #TTRPG #RPGSEA #indiettrpg

tbh I get why we got frustrated with it BUT it would behoove us all to bring back "anything can be queer unless explicitly stated otherwise" as opposed to the current wasteland of "it's only queer if the character fucks somebody of the same gender on screen and then says "I did it in a gay context"

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

The reaction to Kirk’s death by liberals truly shows how incapable they are of understanding that structural violence in the form of harassment, promoting laws, spewing hateful rhetoric, and making hit list very literally KILLS PEOPLE, and in high numbers. Kirk was a killer of hundreds to thousands

I have just learned of #SapphicSeptember and decided to put Corps à Corps on sale for the month. You know, for unrelated reasons. Anyway, if GM-optional, stat-raising sports TRPGs are your jam--enjoy! I'll be busy reading sapphic fiction. (Reposted to edit link) arisia.itch.io/corps-a-corp...

It's the best time of the year! #SapphicSeptember is here and one of this year's themes is sapphic knights, which is one of my favorite things to both write and read about. You can get this lesbian-centered, trans-inclusive, high heat Arthuriana series direct at my shop: riengray.shop ⚔️

Read this and at the bottom, you will find a link. Clicking it will get you in for the ride. Wanna come along? #ttrpg #PBTA #AWBurned #ApocalypseWorld www.belloflostsouls.net/2025/09/apoc...

I am writing about this today. Transphobe logic is that trans people only have rights *until* they come into conflict with a cis person. And not just a cis person's legally defined rights, but a cis person's comfort or emotions (which are discretionary and not legally protected).

I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.

DIE the RPG campaign but what binds you all is your collective chuunibyou phase

We might have blown past our expectations a little! The Beta Version of TACTICS MEMORIAM releases on a pay-what-you-want basis on Monday! We’d rather anything you would give go towards the Kickstarter (opening its pledges soon!) to fund the full book. So enjoy yourself with what we have made :)

If an individual offering consensual nudes of themself on OnlyFans is considered “illicit” but a program generating nudes of women without their consent is fine, the powers that be have made their priorities clear. And they’re the same as they ever were.

There’s been a disconnect for a couple yrs between published feminist interpretations of anime / games / manga and how female fans who are feminists actually feel about this issue. A lot of women like Senran Kagura and Stellar Blade. Note: The anime community has more queer women than the mainstream

TTRPGs are cheaper than pretty much all forms of entertainment. They don't get mass appeal because they run precisely counter to the creeping atomisation of society, cannot be easily monetized into subscription models, and they are corralled into the single largest creative monopoly ever seen.
