Two work games cancelled on me this weekend. If I had a platform I'd consider streaming a Brachyr System oneshot xD

Happy #selfpromosaturday! Current #BrachyrSystem project is the World Map and the Navigation skillbook; for characters wanting to find hidden points of interest in the wilderness. Might be the largest skillbook yet, with travel minigame, vehicle rules, random encounter bestiary and tons more!

In the #BrachyrSystem, each playable species has default capabilities to generate or spend 'momentum', an in-play resource. When designing these capabilities, some of them felt too niche or unlikely to me. What happens in the hands of the players? If in doubt; adjust the scene so it can be used!

The only downside to running #BrachyrSystem for a consistent table is people wanting to engage with the release concept I have going; a splatbook for every skill in case you want to specialise... but way before I have those books prepared... #indierpg #gamedev

Despite how much worldbuilding and lore there is for nasvene, I never know where to start when explaining it to people. I could fill entire books just with lore, but that's not the model I'm going for, so I need to dripfeed in my own way and it's so painful to me to take this approach xD

I'll know I've 'made it', when I see something posted about my system online, where I had no hand in the process of creating the post. Someone reviewing a book, or asking if the system is good etc. When the echo in the dark isn't my voice, I will be warm. #indierpg #BrachyrSystem

Players: concerned about how much I describe this one thieves-guild member as smoking hot despite how much she conceals herself. Players; discover she is a 'Half-Succubus Medusa' "Ah..." #ttrpg #Pathfinder1e

I've mentioned 'wildfolk' in some #BrachyrSystem stuff so far but not explained them yet. Wildfolk are Nasvene's fae. They are the result of superstition and the anthropomorphisation of the unpredictability of the wilderness. That cracking sound as you walk? An old hobbler stalking you, flee calmly

Question for #ttrpg players who actually LIKE overland travel. Why? What about it do you enjoy? We hear most about GMs who like it, or advice for GMs to make it fun. But what do players who like it, enjoy about overland travel in their fav system for it?

Crap, ADHD hit and I forgot to post here for like a week.... NUuuuuuuuu eh I'll get over it when I can't see this post.
