Before I start, I should mention that the server itself has a few content warnings for the tabletop games we do and server separately.

peter griffin getting pounded in the ass by a minion as a png, vegeta and piccolo doing the same in a ritual known as “daily dose”; general nonsensical posting for the server.

No racism, ableism or any bigotry of any kind. With that said, the campaigns I run are Vampire the Masquerade and a fusion between Cyberpunk RED and 2020. Gore, violence, depraved conditions, etc should all be expected with these systems.

Anyways! To introductions, I’ve been running a couple games for over 7 years; DnD, Cyberpunk, VtM, Rogue Trader; etc. As of right now, we are focusing on VtM, Cyberpunk and Rogue Trader. VtM has taken precedence recently, with Rogue Trader on the horizon.

Our typical scheduling is around Tuesday at 5pm-5:30pm EST. Sometimes we can reschedule/adjust for players; otherwise that’s the day we’d like to keep to for right now.

Our server isn’t serious in the sense that we always almost always use rule of cool; we don’t beat people over the head with rules or server regulations. You’re free to post anything you want/create your own channel even if you’d like.

If anyone is interested, let me know and I’ll shoot you a DM.

Bathtub Review: Seas of Sand (playfulvoid.game.blog)
submitted 6 months ago by copacetic@discuss.tchncs.de to c/osr@lemm.ee

If your table loves unique worlds, is interested in a seafaring or mercantile campaign, or wanted to enjoy Ultraviolet Grasslands but it felt too picaresque or undirected, this is a book for you. What it will require from the referee, though, is a lot of prep work, both before session 1, and between sessions, and a decent level of confidence with improvisational play.

It was a bit stressful and confusing at times as new abilities were constantly being piled on, and maybe it was a mistake to choose a system like DCC. If I had it to do over again something simpler, with flatter curves and less wacky stuff injected might make for a smoother ride. But maybe the bumps along the way are what made the ride so memorable to begin with.

My aim is for it to be a living document that evolves as I run games, scratch out well-used results, add new ones, and add/subtract whole tables. It is also not intended to be a new RPG ruleset or anything like that, but more my reflection of BX D&D. The way I butter my toast.

Hexplore 24 to replace Dungeon23? (monstersmazes.blogspot.com)
submitted 11 months ago by Enfors@lemm.ee to c/osr@lemm.ee

The Monsters & Mazes blog has suggested #Hexplore24 to replace #Dungeon23. The idea is to solo play through a newly generated hex each day for a year.

I'm creating a wagon inventory sheet for my players, who are using slot-based inventory tracking. They want to modify the wagon to have solid walls and a roof, like a vardo. How many slots should I reduce the carrying capacity by? I think the 3d6DTL crew did something similar in their Dolmenwood campaign. Any suggestions on the cost of the modification? We're using OSE Advanced Fantasy. Thanks!

Hey y'all! Just wanted to drop a free d6 of Troika backgrounds from a setting book I've been working on! Can you guess what character inspired what background? A certain time travelling adventure JRPG is the key. Enjoy!

One comment:

Professor DM just casually creating a masterclass in how to run a megadungeon, giving an entertaining as all hell recount of a campaign, showing a whole mess of incredible miniatures AND bringing a supergroup of creators to present it all, absolutely 10/10 content!

Stunting for Profit in D&D combat (mythlands-erce.blogspot.com)
submitted 1 year ago by copacetic@discuss.tchncs.de to c/osr@lemm.ee

I've seen people go with the approach that says that you can stunt (ie. achieve an effect different than damage) by simply forfeiting your damage roll if you hit. It's simple and nice, but I think doesn't really add to the game what stunting should - Something out of the box, raising the stakes to gain an advantage somehow, at added peril to yourself. So here is how I would do ii.

This past year, my home-group have ventured across the much-anticipated Dolmenwood setting. In hexcrawling through this mystical land, I anticipated the classic dungeon-game sandbox experience… you know, hexes and such. Yet, in play we engaged most with Dolmenwood’s mesmerizing pathcrawl, where trails, rivers, and fairy roads intertwined with the classic hexmap terrain.

This reminds me very much of Emily Allens Adventures or Mr. Reed's Ten Down.

It has a very OSR vibe to it. Could be very useful in your toolbox to have generational map for the characters. A good why do we delve is always useful.

I used the KELP Forrest a few times now as well as the The TWILIGHT location and encounters tables.

Swordtember 2023 (forums.hexed.press)
submitted 1 year ago by HexedPress@lemm.ee to c/osr@lemm.ee

Anybody else giving Swordtember a try this year? I am giving it ago, despite failing miserably at it last year. One wrinkle for me: I'm not limiting myself to swords. I hereby dub it, Weaptember!

As it is also #WIPWednesday, here's the write-up on my first weapon:

Gorger, the Club of Blebazabu

Chaotic great club +2 / +4 vs Law, INT 9 EGO 8, COM empathy, POW illusion generation / detect law

This was the war club of the demon, Blebazabu, lost somewhere on the prime material plane. Legend places it at the bottom of a steep crater hidden under a sea of ice.

Though the great demon cannot leave his abyssal abode, it is said his servants are ever seeking for the club. Woe betide the world should they find it!

I'm currently running an OSE Advanced campaign with some friends. Any suggestions on activities in the village that the party has established as a home base for a fall festival? I'm thinking of a log rolling (dex), ale drinking (con), etc., but I would love some creative things to add to the mix and make it more fun. Zany is always welcome with this group of players!
