Relating to my toot earlier today, I got around to formatting the tables in a spreadsheet instead of just my notebook (lol). The post is open to the public!

To summarize, you can use these 2d6 tables to add additional character and depth to your random encounters. It's completely system agnostic too! I'd love to hear your thoughts!

The old rags with monsters makes me think of systems where monsters are abstracted. In T&T you can run an encounter from just the MR number. All game mechanics derive from that number, and the sparseness means you have to fill it with meaning. It can still be a bag of hit points, if you like.

Are the game mechanics for the monsters in Pegasus Magazine adding more than that MR value? I guess they should do, shouldn't they?

I guess it's time for an #Introduction again.

I like #gamemastering #Pathfinder1e #TTRPG.

I like #FountainPens and looped #cursive. I have a few "entry-level" fountain pens.

I like #MiniaturePainting.

I like #writing fiction sometimes.

I like corded telephones. I own a red Cortelco Kellogg 2500 Desk Telephone.

I recently switched to #Linux (#LinuxMint) from Windows10.

New Site Post: Making RPGs live up to their promise
https://spriggans-den.com/2023/05/29/making-rpgs-live-up-to-their-promise/

RPGs are completely unique as a medium of fiction in that they can have stories that are being created by the players as things are playing out, instead of simply being an audience to a story that has already been largely written in its main plot points.

Any campaign should attempt to live up to this promise, but how can we actually apply this in practice?

I once played in a D&D 3.5 game session where the GM was using every supplement published. Every single one (easily more than 20 books at the time). People were taking up to *THIRTY MINUTES* to resolve their turns. It was the most boring game session I'd ever taken part in. I never went back.

People. Don't be that GM.

New blog post up, inspired by an exchange with @Judd and @eric. The theme is "The Guilt-Free TPK". Nothing revolutionary, just musings to collect my thoughts on the subject and hopefully give some pointers to others.

The art of GMing is very much administering a junkyard and make it appear as a Rube Goldberg machine. #ttrpg #rpg #gamemastering #osr

Anyone have any great low-prep/collaborative GM tips like Blades in the Dark faction clocks? I don't want to "write a story" but things like faction clocks give me threads to pull on whenever to keep a cohesive story together. Anybody got anything like that?

Asking because I'm starting a new game in 13th age after running Abomination Vaults in #Pathfinder 2e. I enjoy how 13A has a lot of narrative features and seems to even endorse a PBTA-style game where the players and GM work together on the story rather than having the GM do everything.
