Unorthodox, but I like avocado, so I'm good with it
Wait what's the A?
I suppose technically it should BBLMT. This is gonna bother me. Why are bread and mayo not included in the acronym?
I really want a good BLT. But I don't have any bacon. I don't have any lettuce. I don't have any tomato. And I don't have any bread. So, uh, mayonnaise is the only requisite ingredient I have.
Bad DM advice: place a large industrial stapler on the table next to your DM screen. Never use it, but pet it lovingly when players get out of hand.
Came here to say this. Collecting, art appreciation, reading are aspects of the hobby that are valuable to me even if I never play the game.
My #DnD campaign book is available for purchase on ko-fi! If you recall, I took it down from itchio after it was deindexed Get yourself a 200+ page open world campaign book with tons of dungeons, settlements, quests, and an epic overarching storyline! 👉 ko-fi.com/s/256b9c0924
Doing okay. Just got home from spending some time with some friends.
Moddable games like Stardew Valley, Skyrim, Minecraft always have this bittersweet dread and excitement when a new update is announced: "Oh shit cool new official stuff!" vs "But my mods aren't gonna work for six weeks and some will never be ported at all..."
I was coming here to say this. They were definitely a prototype for this kind of advancement.
Calling #TTRPG bloggers! I'm hosting the September RPG Blog Carnival this month: our topic this month is Magic Rocks.
It's Monday! That means it's time for #AskACreator day. Tag a creator you like in the comments and ask them a question about their work. @quartermasterc.bsky.social What is your most popular video on your YouTube channel? Drop a link to it! #ttrpg
I just backed Kindred Comics Issue #1: The Verdict of Amarantha Cull by @stonehomegames.com! A little over 20% funded already! You won't want to miss this awesome comic.
Looking at my to-do list like 👀 and deciding which parts aren't gonna get done today. 😂
Good morning, friends and fiends. The coffee is hot and tasty this morning. How are you?
Starting stream! Tonight we're playing Super Castlevania IV! www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_UI...
I got an invisible Shark on a quest, with +3 HD and +30ft movement.
Yes! Or a twist, where they explore a tomb to realize it's not for who they thought it was.
Yep! And those tombs are often tied to families who are still active in the world.
Break some of them. Resist the urge to tell the story completely. Leave gaps and unanswered questions, let the players make their own interpretations.
What inhabits the tomb? Could be anything. Sacred guardians. Maybe bandits are using it as a hideout, maybe a monster is using it as a lair. Frescoes, statues, murals, tapestries throughout tell the story of that figure and their impact on the setting.
Something I'm working on for my campaign setting: Historical figures have tombs. Some of them are intact, some have been looted (but something else has moved in), some are fabled and require exploring to find. Each one a playable dungeon you can drip feed lore through.

Good morning, friends and fiends. Send coffee. Lots of coffee.
Honestly, deep diving into weird little small European town Wikipedia pages is a gold mine of worldbuilding stuff for fantasy campaign settings.
Friday video is up! A quick look at obstacles in your ttrpg/dnd game! www.youtube.com/shorts/_nK_T... #ttrpg #dnd #gaming #DungeonsAndDragons #vtuber
I'm running a game for my local TTRPG group next week.
I don't have a lot planned. Gonna stream from NES games on Sunday. Other than that, mostly just some D&D prep.
Good morning, friends and fiends. We've survived to Thursday. The weekend is in sight.
I'm just saying, if anyone needs to be spontaneously set on fire by Eve, it's that guy.
Wait, what'd I miss?
Happy birthday Rex!
The Kickstarter for Renown: The Card Game is launching in a few days. Check out this how-to-play video from @stonehomegames.com, with narration by @thewelshdm.bsky.social to learn more about the game. I've played this and it's a ton of fun! www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YJb...
Born and raised in this area, so I guess I'm used to it. Dothan is the City of Endless Roadwork. lol Peanut festival is okay. I haven't been in several years, but there's usually good food.
Definitely the first one.
Dude, you're like 45 minutes away from me.
Ooh, new goodies. 👀
Ew.
Especially if it's one that's been left out for a few days.
..is...is the shark still alive?
If you were going to throw a sandwich at agents of a fascist regime, what kind of sandwich would it be?
Anxiety is a bitch. I hope things ease up soon.
I love that name!

He'll get there. ❤️
We are looking for 1 individual to join us for campaign 2! We’re aiming to have a diverse cast of voices for the stream, so we’re especially encouraging women and marginalized gender-nonconforming people to apply. Everyone is welcome to submit, and all applications will be considered.
It's a great one to have on in the background while you're focused on other things.
For the RPG publishers, I hope you didn't miss this "what you need to know with tariffs" article: sllswrd.games/home/f/tarif...
Well yeah, I mean, the Warp wants to devour the multiverse, but it's not a *monster.*
You know how sometimes you copy and paste a document into Word and it fucks up all the formatting? Kinda like that, except with the added bonus of growing tentacles that want to strangle you out of your tear ducts.

Welp. I've discovered a 10 hour loop of the song Corridors of Time from Chrono Trigger. It is soothing in the best way.
Nimrus still mostly uses scribes to hand-copy texts. The printing press hasn't been invented, but there are magical means to speed up the process -- but of course, the Warp is devious, so sometimes it inserts its own foul secrets into the text, so copying texts magically is tricky business.
the meeps!
Pixel woke me up this morning by shoving her face into my mouth and sneezing, so, you know, great start. Cats are fun.
It quieted down a little while later, thankfully.
I have to do this occasionally.
*sits nearby, making DadSounds™ for the ambience* How's it going, sport?
A TTRPG actual play performer.
Made it out of the house and to the backup coffee shop (my usual is closed on Mondays). I desperately need to buy some new earplugs. They're grinding coffee and people are talking and its all sensory overload. But the coffee is tasty.
I honestly don't think I've ever used a behir in an adventure. I should fix that.
This. The first Trump administration was easy street for media. A factory that churns out 30 click-worthy zany stories a day? It's a golden goose fed on Haribo sugar free gummy bears.
Does a platypus count? You can't tell me that thing is a natural part of our reality.
This is a good one.
It's Monday! That means it's time for #AskACreator day. Tag a creator you like in the comments and ask them a question about their work. @abyssalbrews.com Just how many magic items have you created? Do you keep a running tally? #ttrpg
Melty
Oh this is a good one.
It's a rough morning here. What's the best emoji for communicating "ughhhh"
dwarven fungal beasts for my buds at @mythcraftpodcast.bsky.social #osr #ttrpg #b&wart
Do a video on what happens when a god dies and what effects it has on the setting.
It's got some amazing art. I love all the little references too.
Eh. I can understand why someone is the way they are and does the things they do, fully empathize with them, and still say “but you gotta keep that over there.” You treating you crazy, which means you treating me crazy, and while I may love/care for you, I actually don’t have to take that.
Live now! Let's chat and play some Castlevania! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jvug...
Hi folks, gonna do a short Sunday Night NES stream tonight at 7 pm EST! We'll be playing the OG Castlevania.
I feel like my brain has been scooped out and replaced with squeaky styrofoam.
Yay!
Have you ever considered who would win between the armies of fantasy, and those of history? Well today, we set the scene in a battle between the dark forces of Mordor, and the English army of Henry V. But who will emerge victorious? youtu.be/YW1LeszhtgI?... #History #Fantasy #Nerdling
I just picked up Gathox Vertical Slum. Great stuff.
I tried to explain Stardew Valley to my mother. She was convinced it played like Farmville, because that's the only context for "a farming game" she has.
#DnD advice: If your players are having trouble following your exposition, try playing footage of a Minecraft parkour course below you while you talk.
I guess that's my concern. They don't feel different enough for what I'm after.
Ooh. I need to check that one out .
Yeah. I don't think you necessarily even have to make effects totally off limits to some casters, but they need to FEEL somehow.
Something that feels weird in later versions of D&D is the homogenization of types of magic. If the druid, the cleric, and the wizard can all wield fire, change their shape, and enchant foes, what is there to separate them? I like it a bit better when each type of magic has its unique wheelhouse
You won't be disappointed.
The roach people will take them off your hands. Yes, yes, squishy eye-things, tasty just like garbage and woodrot.
I'm just saying, there are few downsides to introducing cockroach-people in your fantasy world. Hypersurvivalist bug people who can and will eat anything including the corpses of their friends?
Character idea: three trenchcoats on a kobold. They're all sentient magic items. The poor kobold is run ragged trying to keep them all satisfied.
Wut. Sounds like they wanted to make a generic action game and just slap a recognizable IP name on it.
Yard sales and TTRPG meet up on Saturday. Possibly doing some craft stuff with friends on Sunday. Lots of worldbuilding.
Two new artist galleries this week, both who worked on Renown: The Card Game. Meet James McCauley's cast of characters, chickens, and his own gaming progress. We love James and are super happy to share him with you all here on Bluesky. dromaria.com/w/dromaria/a... #art #artgallery #indie

Yeah, that's the easy one. I should have clarified that I was looking more for advice on creatures that aren't in the core material. I have tons of 5e bestiaries from third parties. Your other comments are more on the money, though. Thanks!
I steal a lot of bits from their publications.
Anyone have any good resources on backporting 5e monster statblocks to B/X or OSR-adjacent systems? #ttrpg #dnd #osr
I didn't know that sweetened condense oat milk was a thing.
Me looking at my TTRPG development roadmap
Look, I grew up eating dusty wall chicken. This menu is fine.
