Just finished an 8-hour #OneShot #PenAndPaper introductory round of #CandelaObscura :)

I think it's a really cool system, the horror elements are brilliantly implemented and, compared to #DasSchwarzeAuge or #Shadowrun, for example, it's much quicker to create a character and (if you've never played before) get into the world.

Very, very cool indeed :)

So was reading up on Psych Horror for #CandelaObscura and this site/article writer decided to censor Alfred Hitchcock's name in the most stupidly hilarious way.

Roll for Wishes continues tonight at 8 p.m. E.D.T. (GMT-4) with our Candela Obscura finale on the Pocket Dragon Pub. Donations to Make a Wish influence the game live.

There's very little published Candela Obscura content and this looks really neat.

I hope they're able to fund.

Had a gift card. Went in to get the latest storm light book. Got this instead.

I wasn’t actually super duper interested in #CandelaObscura, though I did read the quick start rules. It’s not that it’s bad, just not on the top of the stack of games I wanted to play.

I’m got it because I want to send the message that “Non-D&D rpgs have a market, too!”

Now I have a book to read tonight. Sorry Sanderson.

(Don’t worry, I have the storm light 5 audio book, I was just hoping to finish my physical book collection.)

Realized I forgot to attach the images when I made the first post 🤣. Going to be scattering these adventures through the month for anyone wanting to be a little spooky.

The link just leads to a PDF file, but all the info is in these pics. Hope someone has some fun with the. https://ko-fi.com/s/cd9bf0014b
#CandelaOctober #CandelaObscura #TTRPG #OneShot

People exit a quieting carnival. A couple walk hand in hand, when one suddenly collapses. His partner tries to wake him. Our view shifts up toward the carnival. The words "Happy Scare Carnival" flicker in the lantern light.

Wise words in a RPG horror setting, Brennan. #CandelaObscura

One of the best parts of being a Game Master is setting up dominos in full view of your players and seeing how far you can get before they catch on. Completely unrelated, here is a session report from my #CandelaObscura #TTRPG crew.

Well that's embarrassing, I set this to post on the wrong date (Enjoy the sneak peek of next week's a session report). What ACTUALLY got posted today was a #CandelaObscura assignment report. This one's a fun one too 😅. My investigators had fun with a brutal desperate scramble when they discovered the BBEG #TTRPG

A couple tidbits for the future were laid during this session of #CandelaObscura . It's really neat how easy it feels to just drop in random new places into the Fairelands. Could just me getting better making changes to a world without flinching #TTRPG

I got paid the best compliment by my players. "I was actually creeped out and scared." It really soothes my insecure heart that my players felt and enjoyed the story beats.

This kind of emphasizes that #Daggerheart definitely _has_ a market and will be very appealing within that market, I'm just not it.

I think #CandelaObscura's system is a great system for a different setting and one I actively enjoy. I think that Candela's _setting_, at least the way I use it, would be better suited to the Cypher system. But I can see plenty of games and settings I would love running in its system.

But Daggerheart doesn't give me that vibe. I _do_ see what it is doing and applaud how it did it for the most part, at least for what it is, I just don't have much desire to run or play with it.

Finally, I get to post about my first #CandelaObscura #TTRPG adventure. I think I'll post a breakdown of it tomorrow. I don't think it is all that impressive for my first homebrew assignment, but everyone seemed to like the theming. If anything it will help me get better :)

Part of the thing with eldritch horror games is that they suffer from mechanics for the things you find, but do okay with mechanics for the _players_. Especially light mechanics meant to give a sense of dread and attrition. That's a pretty clean fit for #CandelaObscura on a mechanics level.

In general, I don't think that the #CandelaObscura _system_ works very well for how I think your average group actually _plays Candela_. I think that the Cypher system, however, would be _great_ for Candela. Conversely. I think that Candela's system would be great for call-of-cthulhu games.

Another report from the Circle of Obscurantist Actors. I really don't have a goal in site for the "end" of the campaign. Kind have just been enjoying the casual feel of things. But hooks are naturally seeding and I'm excited to see how it plays out :)

I love the #CandelaObscura #TTRPG and its after assignment reports. I have one of my players fill one out after each session so eventually we will have a large archive of old assignments. While this is mostly for my players, I thought I might as well share it.

@IcarusGames started straight after work with a #witcher game I'm running on Roll20 for work friends, then tomorrow afternoon I'm running #CandelaObscura with my in-person group.

I wouldn't normally run games two days in a row but that's just the way the scheduling worked out.
