New intro/pinned post!
Hi, I'm Ksandra, a Polish ttrpg creator currently living in Scotland.
I'm the author of Wise Women - a game about witches inspired by Eastern European plant folklore.
I also sometimes make long VtM videos and have a small VtM actual play.

Reminder: Plato argued that, since souls reincarnate, souls in men & women are the same & equally capable of all things, so the sexes are equal.
P’s mother Perictione was (ancient sources say) a Pythagorean philosopher.
19th C didn’t believe she could be a philosopher so erased her from P’s bio.

I think I'm going to do the New Year's resolution thing and aim to get as close to doing something creative every day as I can.
Write a paragraph or a couple of sentences at least, develop game ideas, take or edit some photos but do something and hopefully eventually make it my routine.

A) there is no requirement that any of your characters has any sort of "arc" let alone a redemption.
B) there is also no requirement that your fiction has a plot.

For my 2025 summary:
It's been a good in many ways. I got married, travelled, finally got driving licence.
But creatively, I felt stuck. I didn't finish winter Wise Women supplement nor start next game, didn't do much creative writing nor photography.
Hope to create more in 2026.
