Totally taken. Madly in love.
TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you prefer to play in a published setting or a homebrew one?

Most the games I see run are homebrew, especially in the D&D variants. I seldom see a Forgotten Realms or Eberron. But at the same time as I say that, some games seem to only get run in the standard setting.

TTRPG Question of the Day

Would you rather have one marathon game session a month or several short sessions?

I was just thinking about this earlier & I'm not sure which one I would probably pick. Too short & I feel like no progress is made. But I also don't do well with long gaps between playing.

How do you keep from suffering burnout?

I took some days off for my birthday & over the course of those days I got to discussing burnout. A good friend of mine was saying that they could see it coming & they might need a break. How do you handle burnout? What even is it?

I have successfully lived another year as of today!

I'm sure absolutely nothing bad will happen in the world at large. Just a nice, peaceful birthday. 🙄

A whole year of questions. I think almost a whole year previous? I don't know. But I do know I'll probably switch things up this year like I did last year.

No idea what I'll do. Maybe more of the same. But in the end, thanks for the time you've given me & all the interesting answers!

TTRPG Question of the Day

If you only got to play one last session, what TTRPG would it be?

Thinking about the end of the year & how for many people it represents the closing of a chapter. That got me thinking about it I had to choose one game to play, for one last session, what would it be?

TTRPG Question of the Day

If your character wasn't caught up in an adventure, what would they do for a living?

I always think about how a character would get by if they weren't swept up in the circumstances that is the story. What skills do they have to make a living or even just survive?

TTRPG Question of the Day

What do wish the players at your table did more of?

This can be any number of things. Maybe you wish they'd roleplay more & really get into character. Or maybe you would love for them to remember what's on their sheet. Maybe you'd prefer them simply to be more punctual.

TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you have any gaming goals for next year?

It's right around the corner. A new year. For a lot of people this is a perfect time to set some goals & try to achieve them over the course of the next 12 months. Do you have any? Play a certain game or pick up a certain book?

TTRPG Question of the Day

How much sleep do you get?

You, the player or GM. Per day. The reason I ask this is that it's been my personal experience that people in the TTRPG space get very little sleep & I'm wondering if that's just a strange coincidence. So do you get a lot of sleep & if not why?

TTRPG Question of the Day

What would be your perfect holiday TTRPG gift?

With the holidays here, people struggle to find the right gift for the gamer in their lives. Even if you too are in the hobby, it can be difficult deciding what you get. Maybe a book. Maybe dice. What's your perfect gift?

TTRPG Question of the Day

How many players at your table also GM?

It seems to be brutally agreed on that GMs are hard to come by. That the ratio is people who play to the people who run games is very uneven. How many people do you regularly play with & how many of them have also have GM'd a game?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you use have any house rules at your table?

A large number of GMs will have some sort of house rule, meaning something additional that they have added to the rules as written or some way they've modified them. What's a house rule you use & how does it differ from RAW?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Where does your character live?

Most characters usually have some kind of residence they call home. Maybe it's a ramshackle hut or maybe a whole castle? Or perhaps they live in tiny neon-lit apartment or aboard some aging space station. What does their home look like?

TTRPG Question of the Day

How will your character deal with the BBEG?

I was thinking about campaigns that culminates in taking down the main villain & what form that might take. Does your character kill them? Imprison them? How is the organization shut down? Is the apocalypse delayed or stopped?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you have a gaming pet peeve?

We all get annoyed by certain things in life & this goes for our hobby as well. Maybe it gets under your skin when a player shows up late, or maybe you can't stand people hogging the spotlight. Perhaps rules lawyering really frustrates you.

TTRPG Question of the Day

What qualities to you bring to the table?

Everyone has a particular set of skills, some of which can help the overall gaming experience. Some people have great imaginations, others have in-depth knowledge of the rules, & others are good at supporting the other players.

TTRPG Question of the Day

What was your character's first mission?

Everyone starts somewhere. Often the first adventure is fairly mundane, such as handling a group of bandits for the village or maybe breaking into a warehouse to steal the tech for someone. GMs, what did your players tackle first?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Have you encountered an "angry roller"?

I wasn't sure what to call it, but that term seemed the best. By "angry roller" I'm talking about someone who gets excessively frustrated when the dice don't produce the desired result. If you have encountered this, what did you do?
December 12, 2025 at 9:45 AM
TTRPG Question of the Day

How do you feel about a reluctant character?

By this I mean a character who has to be heavily convinced in one way or another to embark on whatever the adventure is. A sort of character that often states something to the effect of " why should I go with you to do that".

TTRPG Question of the Day

Does your character have any scars?

In games where violence or mishaps can become commonplace, injuries are likely to occur. These wounds may heal, but often they can leave a noteworthy scar. Does your character have a particularly impressive scar & how did the get it?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Who would mourn your character's passing the most?

Ignoring the entire argument of whether or not PCs should be able to die, let's just say that your character does pass. Whether by violence or natural cause, they'd leave people behind. Who would mourn the most & why?

TTRPG Question of the Day

Do you have a memorable dice roll moment?

Whether an epic failure or an against-all-odds success, it seems that we all have a story about that one roll. Sometimes it's not even a matter of the odds but more the right set of circumstances for a truly interesting outcome.

What is your go-to game snack?

I've seen a variety of preferred snacks at my tables. From people who try to stay healthy, maybe eating some nuts or fruit, to people going to town on some candy. My best friend @atlasursa.bsky.social ,for instance, needs sour gummy snacks.
