The 20% Rule - Subvert the Expected
In Project Psyren, /AT LEAST/ 20% of the worldbuilding, narrative, and lore is deliberately designed to subvert traditional fantasy tropes.

You’ll still find swords, dragons, and ancient ruins... but rarely in the form you're used to.

Stay Tuned for more!

Psyren Song attempts to merge mechanical depth with narrative storytelling, drawing on the the very best of Dark and Epic Fantasy traditions -- while actively and intentionally challenging the worst habits of those traditions.

“It has been nine hundred years since the Gatecrashing tore the world of Psyren asunder. The few survivors fought over the scraps of fallen nations and sundered empires while enduring unending war, famine, plague, and deadly creatures. At last, after nearly ten centuries, survivor states and new nations bloom like wildflowers in the cradles of the civilizations of old—bastions and cities crafted from looted stone and dreams have lifted from the ashes of the old world. But ancient secrets stir in the lingering shadows of the past, as the world of Psyren daringly strives to heal.”

Project Psyren aka Psyren Song, is a class-less, level-less, Tabletop RPG set in a mythic, post-cataclysmic world where survival, discovery, and fate shape your path.

The thing! Do the thing and support amazing creatives!

I don't even really know how to articulate my thoughts on the SCOTUS decision on trans rights.

But I'll give it a go.

Put together a starter pack of transfem authors of color! It's small, and a good place to start if you're looking for new writers to read. bsky.app/starter-pack...

I think the best lesson I've learned about game design since starting to work on TTRPGs is that design elements should be considered as tools to influence player behavior toward doing things that we consider 'fun' rather than considered in isolation

I think this stems from the idea that we can't be certain that our rules are going to work 100% as intended. I know for example, that I houseruled crash rules in Shadowrun 5th because they were badly thought out and written.

Indeed it do sadly, indeed it do.

As a small indie with only three (at current) people trying to make a #TTRPG in our spare time with little to no funding...

I am really tired of #D&D #DunegeonsAndDragons being THE /Big Thing/ with all of the focus.

The space is SOO much bigger than D&D.

Really? We're still doing GNS theory? *eye roll*.

Go read Dana’s amazing interview with Critical Role for Rolling Stone! 🤩

Tossed you a private message. :)

Team Psyren"Current" Members,
@ciararaynecloud.bsky.social & @riverboatjack.bsky.social & 1 more that's not on socials and is cis. As you can see, both current team members are trans women. :)

TLDR: This is a #Trans Lead Project!

I feel that one should always look to all media for inspiration in their game design. For example, Skyrim was a big inspiration for our "class-less" "level-less" "talent" creation, customization and progression foundation.

TLDR: Characters in Project Psyren are Crafted.

Libs of TikTok is a domestic terrorist account. You should block it.

Well, the person in charge of this account is mixed first nations... so I don't really "celebrate" per say... but the family does enjoy at least having the day to sit and eat and spend time together so... lol
