Black and white digital illustration on a warm gray mottled background. Stout, indeterminately goth-y serif lettering filling out a shield-like shape with some decorative additions top and bottom. Like lettering you’d see on an overly ambitious gravestone or an overly sincere tattoo. Kind of runic. Kind of metal. And a little Victorian with flourishes and vines twisting through the spaces. It reads β€˜Maybe it will happen today’.

if people are using classified information to place bets, then theoretically others can analyze betting behavior to find signals that reveal classified information.

A sorceress gestures idly while sipping from a mug. Flying tankards and cookware terrorize the barmaid and customers. The sorceress has earned a Stress reduction.

In The Black Company RPG, it's crucial to find ways to get rid of the Stress that comes with facing impossible dangers.
The next playtest phase starts Monday with a new scenario. This phase covers character creation and magic.

Against the Silver Slavers The next fantasy novella in Greg Stolze's beloved Borzhu cycle.

I may have mentioned this high #fantasy novella that you can get for a mere $5. Did I? A great city destroyed, its people set adrift, half of β€˜em living on a kaiju’s back, not sure where they’re going? That story?

In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.

"Be a fan of the players' characters!" LOL what? Have you ever MET a player character? They are such assholes! "You see what looks like an orc campβ€”" "FIREBALL!" When player characters faceplant, I just laugh and laugh. That's the joy of the game right there.

Social media is important for my work, but damn somedays I reminesce about not having to read about the dumbest ideas of the most insane people on the planet. There were ages past when you’d go weeks without hearing about the dumbest idea of the most insane person on the planet. Months even.
