1·2 months agoAs a part of group one, I moved to Pathfinder 2e during the ogl debacle and never looked back. Since then I’ve played a bunch of different systems and am really looking into playing MCDMs TTRPG [I’ve forgotten the name forgive me]
71·2 months agoBooker gets yelled at a lot so he very much knows his name well. He also knows Book or BookBookBookBook.
Hollow on the other hand does get called by his name, but he couldn’t care less. They both do get called several nicknames as well.
A former cat of mine would go crazy for hair ties. He was absolutely fantastic at fetch.
My current cat I just discovered will fetch those little wormy guys. He purrs the whole time and it’s so so adorable.
This is super reminiscent of Randowis to me. Love it.
It’s been long enough since Nyan cat that I can no longer remember the song. What instead started circulating in my mind was Katamari Damacy, hahaha
Their names are Booker and Hollow
Booker’s nicknames are Book, Bookbookbookbookbook, Stinky, and Baby because his meow is tiny and he’s baby
Hollow’s nicknames are Mister Man, Kermit (his meow sounds like Kermit swallowing a tennis ball), Holla at ya homeboy, Stinky, and Chocolate Boi because he turns chocolate brown in the sunlight.
They’re both so stupid and I love them.
That’s really funny. I have two voids and they’re also determined by their fur texture and voices.
Right? It looks like it should be Susie?
CY_BORG is very dystopian cyberpunk and is extremely easy to pick up.
Starfinder 2e is just about to come out I think. Integrates easily with Pathfinder 2e rules
I have been playing weekly games of PF2e in it for a few years now and am about to run one and it’s just great. It just keeps getting better too
3·5 months agoThanksgiving dinner.
She would put green chilies in with the turkey to keep it perfectly moist with just the slightest tingle of spicy. And she would make gravy that was to die for, and perfect cranberry sauce. Not served with potatoes, but with rice because she was a fine southern belle.
OneNote is my go to for my notes storage.
Archives of Nethys for PF2e is a must have for keeping track of things
Fantasy name generator website for random things. I really like using the groups and clans and town names. (Sorry I can’t link, I’m on my phone!)
Donjon website for all kinds of things. It’s more suited for 5e, but the 5 room dungeon generator is fantastic. Their city maps are pretty good too, and they break up demographics and notable NPCs and stuff too IIRC
Kobold Fight Club is a must have for encounters. Similarly Mimic Fight Club as well. One is for 5e, the other is for PF2e, but I’ve forgotten which is which.
Watabou for maps. That’s a super powerful tool and one that I use a lot.
Pinterest. As much as I hate it, it’s like the only place where there’s so much art cobbled together in one spot. It makes it very easy to find maps, NPCs, token borders. And if you’re smart about it and reverse image search, it’s easy to find the originals if you’re someone that wants to ask permission to use a certain artwork for an NPC
Oh really? Huh. I’ll have to try again
I wish I could get it to run on Linux
His backpack strap(?) also just disappears
For tokens themselves, I’ll find some token border art on Pinterest or imgur or somewhere and grab it to throw into Krita and make work with my character. If you want a little more pizazz, have the bbeg overflow the token in a few spots. Like if they have maybe a bit weapon or horns, don’t contain those in the border, have them poke out.
How can I become this? How can be this? How,???
Sorry for no link, but there’s a Matthew Colville video aimed at players that I think is pretty good.
There’s also (I think) a Pointy Hat video about it as well.
If I’m world building and not just borrowing, then I go into decent detail. I have a set table of information I try to have fleshed out for every capital city and then another important city in whatever country. So in terms of that, it can get granular.
Cities usually go something like
Some of these are left unanswered if they’re too much, but I generally try to at least get a handle on how strict the law is, how smart the people are, and the culture and food. This helps me get a clear enough image to envelope my players in any one city. I personally also have a lot of fun trying to think of the dishes, ice flowers drizzled with fruit juices in this desert city, while an underground settlement has fried mushrooms and cow beetle steaks.
I also prefer to leave the imagery of a certain city up to an image as that can really inspire me to go from whatever I’m looking at.
