Costume this year was 'Punk Rock Businessmen' or as my partner @vensis.bsky.social calls it, 'Alternative Business Plan'.
My halloween costume where I am wearing a business jacket with a studded flap on either side of front. There is a patch on the upper right hand side that reads 'mosh the needle' in red gothic lettering. Under the jacket is a gray button up shirt, and a red white and blue striped tie. Over my face is a bandana with a graphic of a zombie mouth, a pair of aviator sunglasses, and my fair is spiked into a mohawk. A shot of the back of my costume, showing off the liberty spiked mohawk better. On the back of the jacket are two patches lined with studs, the one on top across my shoulders says "No meetings, no emails" is bold brick letterings, and the back patch below it has a recreation of the Misfits logo where the fiend skull is wearing glasses and it says 'misfiled' over it. A picture of my partner in a suit jacket showing of a patch on the art that says 'Synergy' designed to look like the slayer logo. There is a patch on the upper left hand side of their chest which reads 'Power points and power chords'. There is green studs lining the pockets on the jacket. They are sporting a white button up shirt underneath with a black tie with green dots. They are also wearing a pair of aviators. A shot of the back of my partner's costume, where it shows a patch on the back that reads 'put a pin in it' with a graphic of a safety pin with a little blood on it. On either side of the patch are two safety pins as well as safety pins lining the patch itself. Below that patch is one that reads "Stakeholders" three times with a stake between each one, the stakes get bloodier as they go down the patch.

More that changes, the more that stays the same.

Sometimes metagaming in a TTRPG is perfectly fine.

The one benefit is to have a pretty easy medium to make and utilize maps like this (which I am largely happy about so I will share it), but feels small in comparison to what I am struggling with.
A battle map made in Inkarnate of a broken tavern repurposed into a hideout for rebels. The main body has a bunch of scattered tables, chairs, and candles, off to the right is a risen bar area with discarded crates off to the side. To the left is a hallway is that leads to several rooms cluttered with broken beds and sleeping mats, one of the rooms has a secret compartment with a set of stairs that lead down. To the north of the main room is an well decorated room where the leader stays.

"Live the Dream" by Ramshackle Glory.

Pat the Bunny is one of my top song writers of all time and this honestly one of the best projects he's ever been a part of. Folk Punk distilled into empathetic and powerful lyrics about growing and changing, gaining perspective and holding on tight.

Think I am nailing it on the most recent @puss-studios.bsky.social project.
A screen shot of Ultimate Doom Build in top-down mode. There is a single slightly askew box room holding 32 iron liches, a single player start with a pair of 'gauntlet of the nercomancer' in front of them.

Tried iterating some rooms; an obvious way that would lead into a trap and a safer secret room to start, but ran into some indecision on how to expand and what the purpose of this first floor was going to be.

Decided to open up obsidian and begin get down my thoughts to help inspire me.
A screenshot of my obsidian document on a page where I list out what I already have figured out about the dungeon and what questions and ideas I need to cover. Top of the page I have open reads "what is the story here" with the aforementioned list of information below, some of the words getting cut off.

Quickly drew out a temple/chapel area. On the outside it will take the same space as the current iteration of the drawing below, but while exploring the inside the players will find it expands outwards, alienating the space impossibly with rooms where there shouldn't be any.
A top down view from Dungeon Scrawl of the initial temple design. Three doors at the bottom for the players to enter through. To the north five rows of two pews facing towards the north. On either side of the building is four pillars indented into the wall. North of the pews is two pillars along with an altar structure.

“You’ll be visited by three spirits.”

The three spirits:

Quickly threw this together in a half an hour before we had our Pathfinder 2e session tonight because I realized they were close enough to the encounter I had planned and I had forgotten it completely. Bit crude, but overall fine. Trying to post the stuff I work make in Inkarnate often.

Trying to up my GMing game and decided to practice map making in Inkarnate and their new line tool. Been a while since I touched the site but super happy with how this came out and can't wait to put my Pathfinder 2e players through it.
A TTRPG map of the interior of a building. Towards the bottom is an upside down L-shaped corridor filled with burning debris, on the inside of the corridor is a number of interconnected rooms without any fire. On the far end on the outside is a large open marble room with several statues and more fire.

Went on a date with my partner. Exactly what I needed.
Two fancy-ish drinks at a nice table at a restaurant. Plate of sushi. A different plate of slightly less sushi because I couldn't keep myself from eating a few first.

Wearing a pair of sunglasses with a leather jacket that reads "Plow King" across the back.
