I am so grateful I have never played with someone like this
A #ttrpg nerd and a #rodent lover.
Pfp is my #hamster, Mister Peanut Butter, looking shocked at me taking a picture of him while he’s busy grooming himself. Banner picture is of my two #cavy boars, Oreo (right) and Coffecake (left), who are claiming that I have never fed them once and will soon starve to death, despite the full food bowl behind them.

My group’s campaign started with us being called in to select the next heir, which involved investigating the sins of the imperial harem. When we got there, there were about 60 children and 12 viable heirs. Currently, there are 5 remaining children and 2 viable heirs.
@nothacking @Stamets @rpgmemes
Thats just dnd in general right there
Are we playing the same campaign? Lol
@LoamImprovement @Anticorp I think you don’t understand how public arguments work
@Griff One thing that I really liked as an #autist was that there is a psychologist that is like Andrew Wakefield for the changelings. I forget his name, but he wants a “changeling disorder” to be listed in the DSM so he can cure them of being a fairy. Thankfully he has been laughed out of the psychology profession for believing in fairies.
@zozo @ttrpgs I mean, the actual stuff in it isn’t anything we haven’t seen before. Sure, if you start to awaken as a kid and get some psych help, they will put you on so many antipsychotics that you will be a walking coma patient. Sure, the nobility make skinsuits by scooping out the soul of a human. But what made it traumatizing for me was the fact that it presented this info in bits and pieces while keeping a sunny, colorful glamour and keeping the wonder-ful parts of the setting in focus.
@Afterpants It led to some very chaotic behavior from that character since
Player was mature rper who valued the experience of the other people at the table and very much wanted to see how everything tied together
Character was suddenly very aware that if the story ended, he would stop existing.
Player decided that the character’s moment of gnosis also allowed him to possess his irl body while in-character
The “nobody ever uses the bathroom in fiction unless something is sus” trope popped up in a Trail of Cthulhu campaign I ran back in high school. One of the PCs realized in a moment of Mythos-inflicted hysteria that he hadn’t used the bathroom in 9 months, which led to him slowly realizing that he was in an episodic work of fiction and would stop existing when the story was over
@Dagnet @dragontamer
I saw a video of a guy doing breaststroke in full plate mail once. Sure, it was rough for him, and he was already pretty fucking good at swimming, but he didn’t sink like metal Mario or anything like that.
