«Questions as Flashback Tech»

In preparation for my #Stonetop #ttprg session, I wrote several questions to walk through a flashback sequence. I felt it was a rewarding experience keeping the story in the present, yet giving access to the past actions.

What do you do when the monster you meet has a mouth bigger than your spear?

I think after this next weekend's game sessions, I'll start posting more about the gameplay for my ttrpg that I'm building. It has been a journey so far and posting creatures that exist in my world has been great. Think it is time for that next step and show off the hard work I've done as well as my playtesters.

Random #TTPRG note: I like how “His Majesty the Worm” gets around the orientalist tang of “races” and the clinical coldness of “species” by going with “kith and kin”. Which also sounds cooler.

During that same shopping trip I came across this short animation advertising a Mörk Borg gameplay prop, framed as a morning show from the doomed city of Galgenbeck. This is actually a very good summary of what I like about the #MorkBorg aesthetic: the bleeding-neon clanking-dungeon fetish-filth look layered upon a fundamental and intentional silliness. #TTPRG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge3tK600XVc&t=130s

While shopping for Mörk Borg supplemental material before a PAX Unplugged coupon code expired, I found this thing: https://www.hismajestytheworm.games

His Majesty the Worm is a new-school-old-school game that's basically "Angband, but tabletop, but no dice—but tarot cards” and that's where they got me.

Thus do I sink deeper into my personal third wave of #TTPRG exploration, the one that kicked off four months ago at PAX.

Unlike Mörk Borg, the rulebook is 400 pages long. Gonna take some effort to Delve.

Castrovel Inspirational Memory - 3 years ago
My source attributes this to Eddie Mendoza. However, I've been unable to confirm on his Deviantart page (though it certainly looks like his style).

This pic is a little more high-tech than I typically post. However, the Megafauna packbeast drew me as an environmental aspect. Until now, we've had Shotalashu as land-arboreal mounts (roughly equivalent to horses in size), plus a larger domesticated animal I've been calling a ~Triaelu~ - Shieldhead, basically like an elephant-size Chasmosaurus. However, the steed in this pics seemingly takes this to a whole other level. Possible in Castrovel's lush, biologicially rich environment?? Maybe.

Domesticated Megafauna is an interesting if complicated topic. While Shotalashu may be ridden within the Megadendron limb-deck, bulk transport is probably an endeavor still left for the ground. Packbeasts have the advantage over wagons in being able to adapt more readily to mud (remember - it rains a lot!), although they may have the disadvantage of attracting predators of a similar size. After all, there's a reason why Nysshalora exist on this world! I envision Megafauna trade caravans being quite well-armed expeditions, not only to put up with the dangers of the jungle's darkfloor, but anything coming looking for a meal.
