[Q&A] Robert Scott Sullivan (Liches: Dance Macabre)

[30-Jul-21 08:34 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
Thank you @Dan Davenport for this opportunity and this platform

[30-Jul-21 08:35 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
My name in Real Life ™ is Robert Sullivan. I’ve been gaming in some form since the late 1980s.

[30-Jul-21 08:36 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
Over the last 18-months I have revised, improved and expanded a book on liches I first wrote for 3.5

[30-Jul-21 08:36 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
The book is currently on Kickstarter to help drum up fund for the art.

[30-Jul-21 08:37 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
I know my way around both MicroSoft Word and Adobe InDesign – so I’ve already handled the layout. And It has also been edited by someone other than myself.

[30-Jul-21 08:37 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
But the art is expensive.

[30-Jul-21 08:37 PM] GrumpyRPGReviews#2176
So I’m using the Kickstarter for that.

[Q&A] Keith Wikle & Joshua “Thorin” Messer (Fate of Dungeons)

I am Thorin Messer, I am half of Fate of Dungeons. 😃

[28-Jul-21 07:41 PM] THFC Kalamazoo#7399
I am keith, other half.

[28-Jul-21 07:43 PM] thorin#9072
Fate of Dungeons is an attempt to recreate the flavor we got from First Edition Advanced Dungeons and Dragons using the Fate rule system, so we started with the Fate Condensed SRD and layered on things we liked to make it more like D&D.

[28-Jul-21 07:44 PM] THFC Kalamazoo#7399
We tried to make a game WE wanted to play, that had the “flavor” of games we liked, but with the magic of narrative, collaborative storytelling FATE. We continually asked ourselves, we love this, but is it FATE.

[28-Jul-21 07:47 PM] thorin#9072
For those familiar with Fate, we did classes as a package of Skill ratings and stunts, we did “race” (we call it kinfolk since we never liked the term race) as stunts basically. We use Conditions, an optional Fate rule that is a sort of named Consequence, even instead of the usual Fate Stress.

[Q&A] Anthony Barajas & Dairush Gheyssarieh (The Lost Lights Campaign Setting for 5E & PF2E)

[24-Jul-21 09:01 PM] XPartay#1899
We are Side Quest Press, run by Anthony Barajas and Dariush Gheyssarieh. The product we are publishing and currently have on Kickstarter is called the Lost Lights Campaign Setting. Lost Lights is a new and different campaign setting compatible with both 5e and PF 2E. It spans two primary continents – one populated by scattered societies recovering from a millennia-long war between now-vanished celestial overlords, the other dominated by a vast techno-theocracy trying to cope with the recent absence of gods previously known for their hands-on guidance.

[24-Jul-21 09:01 PM] XPartay#1899
The creative crew behind Side Quest Press has played tabletop roleplaying games for over 40 years, and for a while now we’ve discussed some missing elements in the industry’s creative space; game design companies have attempted to diversify their campaign settings over time but there’s still an element of “other-ism” to the fantastic foreign lands that take their inspiration from places besides Europe. Essentially, these diverse options are often presented (intentionally or not) as anything but the central thematic setting for these RPG worlds, almost as an afterthought to affirm the “real” story spawned from increasingly quotidian classic high fantasy elements.

[24-Jul-21 09:02 PM] XPartay#1899
A shared desire to create a setting influenced by the mythologies of our Middle Eastern and Latin American backgrounds led to the writing of Lost Lights.

[17-Jul-21 03:00 PM] Eiric E. Padráig#4509
The world is almost identical to the one in which we live. COVID fears abound, violence is everywhere, and everything looks bleak. And then they show up – the Agnati.
Basically, humanity is met by entities known as the Agnati – basically aspects of the Cthulian horrors we know so well today. But the Agnati are a bit different themselves.

[17-Jul-21 03:01 PM] Eiric E. Padráig#4509
They understand that humanity is a different thing entirely, and they appreciate that difference greatly. And the Agnati approach individual humans, not the race as a whole.

[17-Jul-21 03:01 PM] Eiric E. Padráig#4509
But, what happens is that the Agnati approach humans with potential… somewhat above the normal human range. They say “If you follow one cosmic guideline, we will give you phenomenal cosmic power”.
Almost as if it were an experiment.

[17-Jul-21 03:02 PM] Eiric E. Padráig#4509
The people that accept these cosmic guideline become known as Aethyrs. and they are the focus of the game.

[17-Jul-21 03:03 PM] Eiric E. Padráig#4509
And I am done rambling… for now! 😄

[Q&A] Cade Howarth (Seeker’s Guide to Uathan – A Dungeons & Dragons Setting)

[16-Jul-21 08:37 PM] Me#5201
Hello everybody! My name is Cade, and I’m working on a D&D 5e setting sourcebook. I wrote up a big wall of text to describe it, so I’m gonna go ahead and past that in here.

[16-Jul-21 08:37 PM] Me#5201
So to kick this off, Seeker’s Guide to Uathan is a sourcebook for the Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition table top game. It’s the RPG system that has always been most familiar to me; given that I was introduced to it years ago. I started off as a player, then DM, and now writer for my own homebrew setting that I currently run as a home game with my friends. It took me about a year and a half of running my own game to start working on this book, and it has been a doozy. Writing this thing has been incredible.
