HOME - Shard RPG Shard RPG is an exciting role-playing game set in the herioc fantasy realm of Dárdünah. Encouter countless creatures, rich fiction, and epic adventure!

Saw the re-release of The Dark Crystal. Folks familiar with my work know it was a huge influence on the fantasy world of Dardunah, a TTRPG setting I first created and published under the Shard Studios banner as Shard. I owe a lot to the genius of Jim Henson and Frank Oz.

I think I'm addicted to dim sum.

He's such a whining man-child. An embarrassment to our country.

Kim Jong Un wants to award Trump the annual North Korean Iron Fist Prize. He's says it's well deserved.

I couldn't sit for days.

I remember we used to call that a trash compactor monster.

Wait, why do you need a pe-- Oh! Now I remember!

BoL was a great little system!

I'm gonna run a new Ten Realms fantasy TTRPG campaign using the Fantasy Age 2e rules.

Is that a PbtA system?

Well, the aspect of a new super fits (they have just discovered their powers), but they're not teenagers. They're all adults. Is there a supplement for Masks that might help the rules fit better? Game takes place in the late 1930s, but they are much more powerful than standard Golden Age heroes.

Is Masks a good system to run non-teenage supers? I'm specifically looking for a PbtA system.

There are some fast methods. I was looking at one from a Vietnamese chef who runs a restaurant. That one was not quick or easy. 😀

Now I like "Grandpapa." Sounds dignified.

I called my grandpa "Papi Teno" (his name was Atenogenes). I might like being called "Papi Ren."

I've looked at recipes but honestly it intimidates me. The proper process looks long and involved. And I love pho.

It will not.

That is an excellent point. :)

I like experimenting with different cuisines. To date, I've made Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Moroccan, Hungarian, and Ethiopian food. What should I tackle next?

Trying to find a name to be called when I become a grandfather. Not sure I like the Southern ones like "Pepaw" or "Papaw" or "Pappy" or the traditional ones like "Gramps" or "Grampa" or "Grandad." The Latino ones are okay like "Buelito" or "Papi" but I'm not sure. What are your favorites?

The House GOP voted to add $20 trillion dollars to our national debt. Every single one of them. Those spineless bastards can NEVER complain about the debt or deficits without being viciously mocked. I hope conservative voters wake up and realize their reps do not give a shit about them.

I support blue states withholding federal taxes if the Orange Shitstain cuts off their federal funds. That seems like a grand idea.

The sooner conservatives can be made to realize that there is no Republican Party anymore, it's dead, there is only the MAGAt Party, and that they are an authoritarian-worshipping party, the sooner we may start to see the balance in Congress shift away from the fascists.

I'd been on wifi for so long that I forgot how fast a direct ethernet connection could be. No more getting dropped from work video conference meetings anymore!
