Okay, I got some good setting background setup now, and I've settled on two non-human races, goblins and elves. I like that these are both traditional fantasy races, but also that I get to mess with them to make them fit my setting. I've also decided they are treated as equals to humans. #writing

Something I am a sucker for in fantasy art is giant things left over from some long ago time. Giant skeletons, giant swords stuck in the ground, a giant stone hand, that kind of thing. It's especially good if no one in the world really knows where those came from. #Fantasy #ttrpg

So, working on my Fantasy Detective novel idea (mashing together Cozy Mysteries a la Agatha Christie and classic fantasy tropes), I am mostly trying to figure out my setting. I've got some basics down, a brief history and a magic system. But I have an issue I am struggling with #writing

Played #ForbiddenLands today had a blast. We never got to the relevant story plot moment the game was mostly spent travelling and RPing with NPCs in towns. This party is funny, they started building their stronghold, and now spend a bunch of time setting up trade with other towns and castles. #ttrpg

Dungeons & Dragons may be the most popular #TTRPG in the world, but apparently hating #D&D is the second.

I'm running my regular game of Forbidden Lands this weekend, and I think it's time to move the plot forward. I'm going to invite them to the Haggler's House and have them meet Zytera and the Rust Prince Kartorda in person, see how things go. #TTRPG #ForbiddenLands #FreeLeague

Okay, random idea. Not really sure how, or eve if, it would work, but bare with me... D&D where the players are cops. Not modern day cops, but like cops in the fantasy world. #D&D #TTRPG

For a while now, I've wanted to run a superhero game where the players are members of a government super-agency charged with investigating super-powered related crimes. I'm not sure if it's better to do that in a world with costumed vigilantes, or where super powered people are just people. #TTRPG

So, I don't have the new Monster Manual yet, but I have seen some videos and read some articles about it. And one thing I see a lot, especially in the discussion, is how much it sucks that orcs no longer have a stat block. I'm only going to sort of talk about that here. #D&D #TTRPG

So, I'm working on world building for my new Fantasy Murder Mystery novel idea, and I need a magic system. I'm going to start broad and narrow it down from there. First off, magic needs to be something my detective can, you know... detect. #writing
