CLAYMORE ꩜ MANDELBROT SET OUT NOW @claymorerpgs.bsky.social · Aug 30
'90s video game magazine style ad showing a soldier with glowing eyes zoned out and holding his own brain. Text over the image reads: THIS IS PVT. PARKER COX. PARKER DIDN'T MAKE IT OUT OF THE ZONE. WILL YOU? "MANDELBROT SET" is shown in a messy, multicolored title font, over several screenshots. Ad copy reads: MANDELBROT SET is the new exclusion zone expedition campaign from CLAYMORE Roleplaying Games. With 36 pulse-pounding random encounters, new abilities like psychic magnetism and retractable claws, plus a map that changes every time you play, it’s so mind-bending and immersive, you’ll forget to go to your job (not that you have one anyway). You’re looking at the next generation of tactical tabletop action, and it’s only available for FIST: Ultra Edition, the paranormal mercenary roleplaying game. What will you find in the Zone?

sometimes the replacement grammar got "messy" w the overlap between describing physical and mental attributes leading to contradictory baddies like HECKATHORNE here who is easy to knock down (low POWER) yet also an immovable object (high MOXIE), or guys like GRUPP w weird conjunction structures
HECKATHORNE is a broken-nosed fisher with straight-cut bangs who hails from the Black Sea of Osk, where heretics live in exile. She is a little easier to knock down than usual, but just a mite quicker than other people. HECKATHORNE has a mind like a well-maintained blade, and she is both an unstoppable force and an immovable object. Currently, she is feeling hale and sound. It is the FINAL day of ASH. PRESS ENTER TO EMBARK. GRUPP the SLUSHY is a pointy-nosed fisher with a loose ponytail who hails from the desert archipelago of Yhon. He is in average shape, and unmistakably nimble. GRUPP finds learning new things comes naturally, yet he is mostly satisfied with failure. Currently, he is feeling hale and sound. It is the TWENTY-FOURTH day of ALDER. PRESS ENTER TO EMBARK.

what's the purpose of having a conversation? of drawing a picture? of cooking a meal? of love, hate, sex, violence, or hard work? the purpose of play, of an instance of play, can only be found in its context

What, in your opinion, is the actual end goal or "purpose" of playing a TTRPG?

This is for an in-progress writing project and would really love input (via replies, quotes, and/or shares).

If you like those Super Eyepatch Wolf videos, I made a game booklet and OST for a fake survival horror videogame called Soul Cemetery that's also a solo ttrpg. So go get it on itch or my store.

In case you're not familiar with the Brighter Tomorrow sale, here's a flyer explaining the whole thing. Basically, we're helping our friend @valcher.bsky.social cover the cost of an uninterruptible power unit so he can stay online under protracted power interruptions caused by Russian ordnance.

On the matter of "news that aren't the Brighter Tomorrow Sale", we're happy to announce that, as proper early 2000s fashion dictates, Data Sparrow has finally received its very own OS-Tan, courtesy of the ever-talented @mouette.moe.

Come 2026, you may begin to see this girl around more often.

cover for a scrapped FIST module - the first ever developed. while this didn't go anywhere and FIST's supplemental material ultimately went in a different direction aesthetically, almost all of the ideas from the mission were integrated into ATARAXIA, MANDELBROT SET, and the core rulebook

Surprise: we're working on something new! A game called Tiny Wizard.
Tiny Wizard text logo in green and gold. A candle, a little door, and a star are hidden in the text. Underneath the logo is a large wide-brimmed wizard's hat with eyes and glasses. Text next to the hat says: We can no longer be seen or heard. A choice made for us, long ago. But we can still connect. Thank you for accepting one of our wizards into your home, and may they bring you some much-needed magic. Tiny Wizard is a solo RPG about a tiny wizard exploring your actual house. Together you’ll climb furniture, cast spells, and open portals to bring the magic of the Tiny Realm back to Earth, one room at a time. Intended for all ages, Tiny Wizard’s gameplay is inspired by solo TTRPGs, virtual pets, and memories of being very small.
