I'm sticking with it still, using Obsidian Notes for my #Mothership campaign. What you're looking at is about 20 sessions of gameplay, starting on the space station Lord Wesley's Rise from Hull Breach, and now on Prospero's Dream from A Pound of Flesh. Can't wait for #mothershipmonth2025

A spiderweb conspiracy board mess of linked nodes from the note-taking program Obsidian. The nodes are color coded to designate different things like dead player characters, factions, npcs and more for a complex visualization of a TTRPG campaign. The node sizes increase with the more links to them. The whole thing resembles a model of a ludicrously complex molecule.

Shouting #ttrpg ideas into the ether: the players are scientists, they break the code on whale song and it turns out they're talking mad shit.

You form an eco activism squad and attack billionaire yachts and other bullshit that's polluting the ocean. Free the animals in captivity. Etc

Shout out to the FIST discord for having the best memes of any discord I've encountered. Also that ttrpg is fun as hell, and I can't recommend it enough.
