Help us out! What could be a side effect or unexpected consequence of casting a spell badly? #ttrpg

We highly recommend this course! Two out of the three of us have taken it, it's how we got involved with Radio Platfform 📻🎧🎤 in the first place! (Did we mention it's entirely FREE?)

When making our #rpg, we didn't realise how cool the different character creation options would sound when put together. We have a playtesting session this weekend and the party currently consists of a Descendant Primal Mage, a Blood-borne Battle Mage, and a Cursed Warlock.

Ever wonder how the Arab Room Ceiling in #CardiffCastle was made? The Ceiling is carved from cedar wood and covered in 22 carat gold leaf. There are also eight hand carved wooden parrots on the arcade around the ceiling #WednesdayWisdom

We want to replace the word GM in our rpg. We’re trying to avoid anything that suggests the players don’t have any agency when it comes to the narrative (like narrator or storyteller). What are some alternatives we could use? Preferably something that suggests collaboration.

We have our first playtesting session tomorrow! The players have some fantastic ideas and it's so rewarding to see what they do with character creation. We've been playtesting before now of course, but this is the first time we have outside help! #ttrpg #rpg

Watercolours of 18th Century Cardiff by the English mapmaker and landscape artist Paul Sandby (1731-1809), showing the town's West Gate and Mill Leat, and the approach from the North with the church of St John the Baptist in the distance.

Our first playtesting session went well! Huge thanks to the playtesters themselves and kudos for figuring out the plot twist 10 minutes into the session! (The plot twist itself was "be gay do crimes".)

This thread perfectly encapsulates what we set out to achieve with our show. Each episode is highly edited and dialogue that doesn't serve the story is often cut. Table talk is kept to a bare minimum and there's no preamble. All this leads to a tighter and more engaging story!

We're so glad you had fun! Thanks once again for joining us!

One good thing that's come out of our hiatus is that we have plenty of time to playtest our #rpg. We ran another session today and got some excellent feedback from the playtesters!

Here's a selection of bits and pieces from a very early version of our new #rpg system. As you can tell, we don't always take ourselves too seriously. #indiettrpg

Here There Be Is also an awesome show that you need to check out while they are on their break. Ren is working at breakneck speed to make their new TTRPG for their game world and I have had the pleasure to try it out. It is a fun system that makes magic feel so story focused.

. . . . . . Well. We can't deny it.

Something's coming . . .
