Having reached a thousand followers here (!), it's clearly time for me to do a big ol' self-promo thread of "Here's the parts of my TTRPG work I think you should know about!".

I'm not going to say that you MUST boycott everything from Hasbro or Wizards while they're partnered with Harry Potter and weird AI bullshit is creeping through the company, I'm just saying that doing so is cool and sexy.

After most of a year of saving up...
✅ Get new glasses, including a set for driving.
Once they arrive:
- Take driving lessons again (it's been, like, 20 years).
- Buy a used vehicle (probably a jeep).
- Get supplies, go camping with kiddo.
(In 2-3 more years: Buy a bit of forest, build a cabin.)

So, the peoples of this setting have, for historical reasons, an aversion to any arrangement that looks like people owning people; they have their own binding conventions, reflected in their social rituals.

Enshittification and AI tools in software driving people to Linux and other FOSS solutions is just nature's way of trying to make more dweebs.
It's like carcinization. Accept it, give in, become weird computer nerd.

Also, if you are appalled by the potential of HP Magic or D&D, your best bet isn't to demand answers from random designers on social media—who can be fired for commenting—it's to send PHYSICAL LETTERS and make actual PHONE CALLS to Hasbro's corporate headquarters, denouncing the entire partnership.

So now I need to sort out a way to explain the critical setting feature of "Everyone in the setting got in fistfights as a kid, and is willing to do so now; fistfighting is the *minimum* response when someone is rude to you, your family, friends, dog. If the king sneers at you, you take a swing."
Slightly refining an older setting, let me know if this vibes for you:
There's a continent, about the size of Australia, about the shape of Africa, in climes and with biomes roughly those of the UK. The main bulk is wild forests and highlands, the pointy bottom is hilly and heavily settled.

I played in the old version of this where my death witch, upon seeing an unstoppable army marching towards her GF's much smaller crew, said "String all the corpses you can find on a big tree. I have a deal to make."
Then a spirit war happened and a micro-heaven fell.
Anyway, this is a fun setting

My enjoyment of fantasy media is vast, but these are two top-tier types, no question.
I only like two flavors of fantasy media: Electric Wizard and Merlin.

Hasbro, newly partnered with the Harry Potter franchise, might attempt to have Wizards make a Harry Potter RPG, and I can't imagine a line of activity more likely to fail delightfully at so, so many points on the way.

This is it; this is The Good Take.
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

So this is great.
If I were gonna make a redwall trrpg one of the things I'd definitely have in the playbooks is a restriction on how you're allowed to die.
Badgers berserk against incredible odds, mice martyr themselves, rabbits die so others may live, etc.
Wouldn't lock it to species, but it would feel v redwall.

Thinking about a new eReader, and what I want is one with a backlight, that doesn't have "page flashes" transitions between screens, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand..... Does not receive updates from a company that might try to make it shittier or "more secure".

I was reminded of the Secret Service raid on Steve Jackson Games in 1990, and ensuing lawsuit, so now I need to remind you all.
(They were making a cyberpunk book, and made attempts to consult hackers.)

Watching some obviously heavy, and very pretty, politcal art being done (Bad Bunny at the Superbowl), and I'm like, I didn't understand a tenth of what I saw, but I bet Bluesky will 'splain it to me.
And it is not disappointing.
