Worldbuilding Tip. Tie geography to story. A mountain pass is not just scenery, it is a challenge or a temptation. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: Worldbuilding Tip. Make maps imperfect. A wrong trail or missing landmark creates exploration drama. Also make sure the players know that maps might not be accurate. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: Worldbuilding Tip. Use history. Wars, disasters, and heroes of the past shape how people live in the present. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: Worldbuilding Tip. Magic should feel magical. Describe how it bends the senses and alters reality, not just what it does mechanically. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: Worldbuilding Tip. Villages are more than maps. Think about what they produce, what they need, and who they fear. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: Worldbuilding Tip. Name things that matter. A tavern with a name feels real, while β€œthe inn” is easy to forget. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, take notes. A simple list of names, places, and mysteries makes you the table’s memory. It’s invaluable to have during play and for recaps. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, remember that it is a group story. No single character should overshadow the rest of the party. It’s ok to have someone be the main character for an adventure or an arc but that PC needs to help include everyone. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, ask β€œwhat would my character do?” and also β€œwhat would make the story better?” That creates great character moments that fit into the style of game you’re playing. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, let your character grow. Who they are at level 1 should not be who they are at level 5 or 10. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, when in doubt, make a bold choice. The story will move forward and create excitement. As a friend likes to say. β€œIt’s a plan, I didn’t say it was a good plan.” #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, celebrate the successes of others. Cheering on the fighter’s crit or the bard’s clever quip builds energy. Plus, it sets a tone for the table. #DnD #TTRPG

Today on Gnome Stew, I take a look at the Art of @koboldpress.com, an art book that looks back over the history of the small but fierce company and the art produced for their products over the years.

RPG Tip: As a player, if you’re not sure what a scene looks like ask the GM, β€œwhat do I notice?” It invites description, deepens immersion at that moment, and helps clarify the shared narrative space. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, share your backstory at the table. A detail or two can spark plot hooks &bonds. Also, if your backstory never hits the table then it matters a lot less to what’s happening. Other players should then seek to help make your backstory part of the game. #DnD #TTRPG

RPG Tip: As a player, listen as much as you talk. TTRPGs are better when everyone’s voice is heard. #DnD #TTRPG

I really like this tip a lot. Those moments give time for characters to breathe a bit and be actual people in the setting rather than just avatars running from encounter to encounter solving problems.
