Doodle of Anshrilda the Chronomancer and Rallosameer the Dream Wanderer. It's called "another date" because I already made a drawing called "date" with these two in the past (but it's old, and I didn't upload it here)

To the dumb question 'Why me?' the cosmos barely bothers to return the reply: Why not?

You might believe that there are literally #NatureSpirits- entities of Life/Energy that surround us or you may feel this is a metaphor for the awe/respect we feel for the natural world, the complex unfolding of natural rhythms/ processes.
A short video + a couple of rough sketches expanding on the idea in the video (maybe later I'll have time to do a proper drawing). These are Laumas- kind of #woodland #fairy #fate guardian or cautionary spirit

In a hilarious totally not planned irony of LOLz, the first professional painter league I got into is also called AAPL

Is Fate RPG too abstract? No, not for my cinematic needs!

But it could use a mechanic for throwing someone over a waterfall. And while we are at it, maybe we add support for fireball?

So I made Fate Tactics: Fun with Zones. It's free. And CC0 licensed.

"Men at some time are masters of their fates:
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings."
- William Shakespeare, "Julius Caesar" (Act 1, Scene 2)

En un par de semanas espero tener preparados 3 nuevos casos para «Doctor Jekyll y Mister Hyde: Investigadores privados» para #FATE acelerado.

Beneath the roots of Yggdrasil, the Norns spin the fate of creation. We see in this that, cause begetting effect, being is rooted in the demise of being. The Norns spin collective orlog and wyrd, a shared fate; and we weave between the threads the path we follow to this inevitable end.

Gestern haben wir den allerersten playtest meines neuen, alternativen Systems für mein Seelenfänger-Setting gespielt. Ergebnis:
Hat erstaunlich gut funktioniert.
Die Charaktererschaffung und -gestaltung muss ich noch etwas kanalisieren und verschlanken.
Hat lange gedauert, was bei neuen Spielen aber normal ist. Die moves kamen noch nicht alle zum tragen, aber was ausgelöst wurde, funktionierte. Juhuu.

If you listen closely, you can sometimes hear The Fates whispering “Fuck around and find out” every time someone asks, “What’s the worst that could happen?”

1/ #Laberfaden zu Würfelsystemen bei Pen & Paper

Mittlerweile konnte ich Pen & Paper Rollenspiele mit den verschiedenen #Würfelsystemen anschauen und ich finde es, macht schon einen großen Unterschied für das Spielgefühl.

Bisher am besten gefallen mir Würfelsysteme, die ich "Normalverteilte" bezeichnen würde, weil die Wahrscheinlichkeiten eine #Gaußkurve bilden.

Das sind alle Systeme, die mehrere Würfel verwenden und die Ergebnisse addiert werden. So sind durchschnittliche Ergebnisse am häufigsten und wirklich gute und wirklich schlechte eher selten.

Z.B. bei zwei W6 gibt es für 12 und 2 nur jeweils ein Ergebnis, für 7 aber am meisten.

Systeme die so funktionieren sind z.B. #DungeonWorld und #Fate und auch #Torg, wobei da ein W20 Wurf auf eine Tabelle gemapt wird, die für eine Normalverteilung sorgt.

"We feel that we are in control when our brains figure out puzzles or read words, says Tom Stafford, but a new experiment shows just how much work is going on underneath the surface of our conscious minds."

« Swift-footed is the approach of fate,
And none can justice violate,
But feels its stern hand soon or late. »

« The way in which a man accepts his fate and all the suffering it entails, the way in which he takes up his cross, gives him ample opportunity — even under the most difficult circumstances — to add a deeper meaning to his life. »
