fine fine fine fine FINE.
But I'm going to make it uncomfortable erotic and you can't stop me.
a snippet of a word document. The text reads "The ghost is: blood-soaked, burnt, oozing, mesmerizing. DAY FOUR the ghost whispers to you late at night. Do you listen? If so, what do you learn? The ghosts is: persuasive, vile, clever, growling. DAY FIVE". The screenshot cuts off here.

Google docs absolutely no thank you
A section of text says "When you pass unharmed, someone might take wear." Docs highlights a grammar error and suggests instead that it should read "When you pass unharmed, someone might take your clothes off."

writing a ttrpg book is good actually
text reads "PLAYING A CHARACTER There are no right ways to play your character, and our main advice is to find a storytelling style that suits you. You might pretend to be them at the table, acting in their shoes: “I’m choosing not to hear you. It’s too beautiful! I’m so excited! HELLO LOVELY HORSE THAT WILL CERTAINLY NOT BITE ME, I’M HERE TO PET YOU” You might prefer to narrate their actions from a bit of a remove, as though you’re watching them act: “Challa isn’t that sensible. She sees fluffy, she wants to touch the fluffy. This is so exciting for her! She ignores the warning and pets the horse” Most likely, you’ll do a little bit of both. However you give them voice at the table, it’s a good idea to let the table know what they’re thinking and feeling, as well as what they’re doing and saying. Don’t let get that get in the way of a great conversation though! Sometimes your characters will really flow in a moment, and it’s okay to let the mechanics and table chat take a back seat"

I may never love a random faction I write as much again in my entire life. This is my peak, maybe.
A snippet from the RYNE rulebook, reading: "THE GADELING NIGHWHAT BREME Keep what you can carry, take only what you need, Good natured in your victory, be gracious in defeat! Who brings the fight and runs all night? THE GADELING NIGHWHAT BREME! The Gadeling Nighwhat Breme are ludicrous, luminous, and full of life. Fleet of foot and gleamed of muscle, they roam and rove in search of new and more interesting competitions. The Gadeling Nighwhat Breme are always ready for anything, though whether anyone is ready for them is another question. For the Nighwhat Breme, everything is a challenge, a chance to prove themselves. No matter the task, a true Breme will undertake it with the same vim and vigour they would approach anything in life. What drives them to never slow, never stop, never settle? How easy is it to be caught up in their energy? PROPOSE A CONTEST poetry, wrestling, verbal sparring, stone skipping, dancing, good manners, rowing, over-salting meals, baby soothing, lifting"

reigning myself in slightly from my original notes of "IF YOU WANT TO WRITE A NOVEL GO DO THAT MY FRIEND"
"SHARE YOUR STORY Preparing a character for a roleplaying game is exciting, and there’s never anything wrong with getting really into it! It’s useful to remember to be honest and open at the table though - other players can’t work with your story if they don’t know about it, or if it’s a closed system. Is a dramatic reveal in the moment worth more than weeks of dramatic irony? Is a fully realised backstory better than weaving the world’s secrets in with yours as you discover them? If everyone is open to sharing their information with the table and leaving things to be decided through play, you’re more likely to end up with a story that lets you all play into the drama of your actions. Ryne is about change and adaptation, after all: give vague details that let you weave the ends together later. The more loose threads you give yourself, the tighter you can tie yourself into the story you weave at the table."
