Das ist völlig an mir vorbei gegangen, Steve Jackson Games wird mit Bean Books die #RingOfFire Buchreihe als Rollenspiel Hintergrund veröffentlichen.

So yesterday was pretty busy for me, from digging in some tubestock on the verge, taking some chairs to the skip for mum, having my sister-in-law visit. Then in the evening setting up a schedule for my smart telescope and putting it on the roof, also GMing my, coincidentally, GURPS merfolk player characters through the adventure with the giant shark, the sunken ship, and the mysterious deaths. (But not at Styles)
Before all of this I espied a nice photo of a poet acquaintance on Dreamwidth looking particularly like a sprite of the sea, so I asked her if it was okay to MerMay her. She agreed, I found out what colours she likes, and before my GURPS game started got her fin sorted.
GMing duties over for the evening, I returned to finish the drawing. It was finished before midnight, so I sent the model a preview, and went to bed before I got a reply. Which is why you will hopefully get two drawings today, as this is a catch up post. It was drawn on the 22nd though.
I used the Kakimori nib again, as I used multiple inks in keeping with the lovely poet's likes. She's said she likes the colours, so score there!
You can check out her website if you like, appropriately, her poems are immersive and will wrap around you like the songs of beautiful prescient birds from forests of spirit memories.

Thank you to her and photographer Rob for letting me play!

@HeyeBodo Ich schnupper gerne mal auf Conventions in unbekannte Systeme und Settings hinein, um - nach dem Serindipitätsprinzip - vielleicht was zu finden, was ich nicht gesucht habe. 🙂
Insgesamt bin ich mit #GURPS sehr zufrieden, was meine Ansprüche als Spieler und Spielleitung an ein System angeht. Und die Anzahl an wirklich coolen Settings jenseits der klassischen Fantasy ist ja eine Stärke von GURPS.

OK, if anyone knows about this, it's the folks on Mastodon:
way before the #SCP Foundation wiki, before #Warehouse13 TV series, even before #GURPS #Warehouse23 RPG book, there way a file shared on #Usenet detailing various weird, funny, and conspirational objects hidden inside a secret giant government warehouse.
Can anyone share a copy of that file or point me in a direction I could download it?

Classic post: some thoughts on a GURPS book
"GURPS Fourth Edition Low-Tech has something to offer anyone interested in the preindustrial world, whether roleplaying gamers, historical novelists, or fans of adventure fiction. The focus on the questions “how big and heavy is this?” “what does it do?” and “how does it compare to the alternatives?” is valuable even if one could wish that the authors had room to explain the answers which they give.

I have just written a #GURPS template expander. Feed it a template and it will do all the "pick X points from list Y" choices and spit out a ready to use character.
I want to release it but it could _really_ use a worked example of converting a template into its rather specialised format.
Does anyone have a pointer to a template of this sort that's out in public that I could quote from in detail, rather than inside a copyrighted book? -

Just found this copy of GURPS For Dummies in the Games section of a local used book store, sandwiched between books about blackjack & poker.
One of the most genuinely odd #TTRPG books ever made.

Randomly-timed reminder for any GURPS fans that I made a supplement full of Earth magic and related stuff, which you can get entirely free here: https://archive.org/details/earth-spells-for-gurps-magic #GURPS
I am pretty proud of this one.
