Who you are in the TTRPG "Trials of the Morrigan" and a call-out about not being a jerk when dealing with intense themes or scenes.

Describing the Morrigan for this game, sort of "The Norn from God of War" kind of vibes.

Since this is legally distinct "the Crow", we need a supernatural manifestation of David Patrick Kelly's T-bird.

#ttrpg work: I think I've dialed in the core lore for the game:

Designer for optimisation, YaBoi for "Needs More Timmy"?

Really wanna start some angst, hit em with the "Oh yeah, my aunt loved that when she was younger" 😼

Why do I feel like Romilly can do a Top Five Essential Oils off the top of their head? 😮‍💨

A mysterious figure submerged in water with the title "Trials of the Morrigan" and the tagline "Vengeance never truly dies"

Credits, an industrial rock "vibes list" and a note that this game is based around the Havoc Engine

An ominous cathedral with "Awaken dead one, the bells toll for you. Feel their thunder, their booming roar that heralds your hunt for those that killed you. The bells toll for your vengeance. Your end comes with their silence."

A "Who are you" page with a mysterious crow figure on the side. Also included is a call-out that this game will explore a lot of intense subjects and feelings, and remember to use tact and respect if you choose to explore them.

#selfpromosunday folks, I come bearing #ttrpg gifts: I'm seeing how I feel about "Trials of the Morrigan" looking like a CD case.

Honestly fair. But since I have a bit to keep going:

a person 's hand is reaching out towards a bird 's head . ALT: a person 's hand is reaching out towards a bird 's head .

Counterpoint: do it all the time and assert dominance. Who's gonna stop that power?

The idea is branching away from Gumshoe as the system, but "Collect clues on who murdered you and the other players" is a core mechanic for the game.

A TTRPG page with a cathedral with some camera noise and threshold effect, and an in character explainer that you have 3 days to be brooding vengeance monsters.

#ttrpg work inspired by @evlynmoreau.bsky.social "When one suffers a truly horrible fate, the Morrigan may offer the poor soul a chance to set things right; to hold their fate for a moment from the tapestry. You and the other players have been granted such a reprieve."

Ahhh snap, we got A Misato Warning 😁

Sketch of an eldritch version of the pokemon paras. It says skree! and Paras in text.

🌸Before I leave for the convention, here's a little eldritch Paras for Pokemon's 30th anniversary~ 🍄🎉🍄

A fake album cover for the fake band "Soulpyre" and their hit song "Everything you never wanted"

Because I'm in an #art mood, here's a fake album cover (that's me continuing to improve my workflow):

concept art showing a cowpybara: a cow sized, extra furry capybara. the image shows two cowpybaras: one dressed & one undressed. the dressed cowpybara stands next to a man, likely its tutor or conductor. the man is outright delighted to be standing next to the cowpybara.

Album?... OH you mean a Grandpas CD!

A figure under the water and a quote attributed to Buddha.

#ttrpg work: this feel like a thing?

Pocket the Street Alchemist is doing numbers over on Tumblr for some reason, so here you go Bluesky! I hope you enjoy this dumb moment from a lil weirdo NPC I introduced in my D&D campaign a while back!

The lore for why you're back in "Trials of the Morrigan". You made a bargain, and the goddess of Fate agreed to save you from dying.

I think this would make for a good hook. The players made a bargain with the Morrigan to reclaim their fate.

Kicks off tomorrow! Wanna make something with us?

"It's like Gumshoe meets the movie the Crow" is SUPER evocative 🥰

Several cawing crows lining the edges of the picture with a more humanoid crow at the bottom. The TTRPG is called "Trials of the Morrigan" with the tagline "Vengeance never dies".

It feels like it needs 5 more minutes of baking, but something like so?

A set of 5 TTRPG covers and a "making one of those pulp scifi covers that were weird for the sake of being weird".

6 more TTRPG covers

#selfpromosunday I put together a top 12 #ttrpg covers I'm super proud of. Square Up, Ragnarockers, and Arcana Obscura REALLY just nailed the vibe.

The oath of the Wardens, who the players play in the TTRPG. "For golden dawn, and wardens gone, I vow to keep the watch. Through droh-nens fire and kingly ire, I vow to keep the watch. No gold shall sway no death shall stay my vow to keep the watch. Should war descend and my life end, I vow to keep the watch".

#ttrpg work: From a "Dragon Riders" idea I explored. Sometimes my writing is actually fire 😲

Walter White from Breaking Bad with the text "You're God Damn right".

Wait is that the one with Leonard Maltin in the front talking about the movie?

A singular isolated figure using a rough looking virtual reality setup. The TTRPG is called "Soul.drive" with the tag line "Who are you when there are no barriers left?"

Rolling hills covered in lush woods and fields stand amongst many bodies of water. The white paint of buildings can be seen in the greenery.

Having trouble tracking it down, so Plausible: "Quesadillas are 16th century, cheese was added by Spanish settlers a bit later, Grilled Cheese is 1920s"

🤣 I was looking through Gifs to keep the bit going and this is the first one that jumped out 🤣

The TTRPG cover for Tales from Elder Earth with a space knight riding a dragon

Two of the core classes: Operators "What if wizards were iPad kids" and Marshals "What if people were super weebs for cowboys?"

The two classes I'm still noodling with. We need a fighty character with a magic sword for sure.

#ttrpg work: Inspired by Blackstar/ He-man "Far enough in the future that scifi is fantasy again", Tales From Elder Earth is weird Science Fantasy that doesn't really have to make sense as long as it's cool

But... Alexander Skarsgard is pretty 🥺👉👈
