Now that it's been about a work week, it's time for an #introduction?
-I like a lot of hobbies, which includes Gunpla, animal husbandry, TTRPGs, traditional and board games, cooking, art, and way too much music sometimes.
-I have two daughters, blessed with kindness and curiosity.

Halfway into this month and getting a group together for a ttrpg, let alone scheduling sessions, has been incredibly difficult as of late.
It makes me question my ability to spark inspiration and interest with my writing, ya know? #ttrpgs

While it's on my mind, I want to talk about one of the very few games I have mastered and can safely say that it's near perfection in all things I look for in a ttrpg.
Suldokar's Wake.
Written by Christian Mehrstam, it is a sort of little sister of his amazing tabletop roleplaying game Whitehack.

Okay, feel like having a nice ramble as I warm my feet by the fire.
I love TTRPPGs, love them a lot. Best hobby in the world if you ask me. It's built the sort of skills that has helped me succeed at many things in life and I feel that it can make a difference in anyone's life, even if it's small.

Gonna take a whole lot of ibuprofen and a lot of fluids to keep me standing by the time I get home but it's been worth it.

I legitimately kept misreading the hastag 'promosky' like it was some sort of Russian name. Kept getting confused as to who everyone was talking about.
Didn't realize it was Promo Sky this whole time.

Okay, taking a small break. Just about done with this set of books... the Gunpla boxes (several unopened) can go up top X_X..
Feel free to make fun of the categorization, I need to sort them another time.

This weekend, I begin to swap out my book collection (that's starting to collapse the bookshelf in on itself) onto my newly stained, much more solid shelving made of hard wood.
The old particle board just can't take the weight of a few thousand dollars worth of TTRPGs...

Another fresh wave of bots, bots with AI art, couple of OF thirst traps, etc.
I can see why it's so easy for everyone to be on the defense, it's really out of hand. 😮💨

That kind of day where my most obscure and quirky books whisper to me, begging to be set free.
I wish I could, but not until I have to somehow manage to convince others to play Fishblade lol.

Before I get to work, suddenly got slammed with a thought thanks to some friendly discussion today!
The Three T's (in no order of importance): Time, Tools, Technique.
When a Player wants to accomplish something, consider this; if they have 1 T, it's difficult. 2 T's, average. 3 T's, don't roll.

A conversation today reminded me of something I find important to the hobby surrounding TTRPGs:
Everyone at the table is allowed to have fun.
Everyone at the table can and should help build and run the game.
It's a symbiosis, built on trust and faith in one another, together with communication.

Does anyone have a weirdly obscure but generally amazing game/setting/system you like?
Old or new, whatever genre. Did you get to host it or play it?
Did it have a cool setting but terrible mechanics? #TTRPGs
