Harlem, Universe 16032240, “The New Songhai.”

A rogue corporate AI has put the city under siege. Now those it’s harmed most rise up, fighting back with power, history, and a future that refuses to be stolen.

Can they reverse it and will they even want to?

This is still blowing my mind.

Thank you for the never ending support on this. I did readjust the class fee goal, so the microgoal ($1,800) has raised a bit more (I miscalculated currency conversions).

I’m also adding on that I’m opening commissions for the GFM and also survival purposes 🖤

💖 WE’RE LIVE! 💖

What draws us to telling stories about love? What underrated dynamics do we wish we saw more in APs? What should folks keep in mind when exploring love and connection of all kinds in TTRPGs?

Join the CHAOS crew as we tackle these Qs and more on twitch.tv/TransplanarRPG! 💘✨
Two illustrated characters stand against a colorful pink background, positioned so that their heads are tilted toward each other. On the left is a smirking Lucy from The Chaos Protocol, a person with dark purple-red skin and shoulder-length wavy black hair. Two horns protrude from her forehead and are decorated with golden jewelry. Ta wears a three-piece black and gold suit with a white collared shirt. They have black scleras and crimson irises. On the right is Artemis from The Chaos Protocol, a butch Greek person with tanned skin, a shaved head with a dark brown laurel tattoo above their ear, and a serious expression. They have bright golden eyes and wear a brass gorget, sleeveless leather shirt, and a brass bracer over their left arm as well as a translucent shawl tossed over their left shoulder to form a half-cape. Various hearts, heart-eyed emojis, and lovey-dovey emotes are positioned around Lucy and Artemis. White text reads, in Comic Sans and Papyrus, "Valentine's Day Community Stream. sat 2/14 8pm @ twitch & youtube. connie is running and producing the stream for the first time in ages so you have to come and be NICE. graphic design is my passion"

Connie throws up a peace sign while looking off to the side in concern and horror. Connie is a Chinese person with medium brown skin, short black hair shaved on the sides, black glasses, and a white HUNTR/X band T-shirt with an illustration of a winking Rumi from K-Pop Demon Hunters in purple. Connie sits in a black and blue gamer chair against their home office decorated with fantasy maps, Chinese calligraphy, and white LEDs.

I want to say this with love, respect and a whole lot of "expand your horizons" energy:

Not everything that involves vampires in TTRPGs needs to be or actually *is* covered by World of Darkness.

Just putting it out there again.

Rest of the month. I'm teaching Tidebreaker to anyone that comes to the discord. If you wanna GM, play, or hack the game I will be available daily for any comers.

My game is Black History. I should not be the only one talking about it anymore.
