Now that we know Lucy Frostblade’s fate, I am haunted by the moment Fig had with Ivy at the Shrimp Party.

The nonchalantness of Ivy’s reaction. The way her eyebrow raised a quizzical but bemused manner. Maybe she could see through Fig’s disguise but even so… NO surprise? NO double take? Just a cold, calculated “we doing this?” Like what the hell is going on?!

Alexa play “Teenagers” by My Chemical Romance

[knownsome]

I'm sooooo over people in live-play fandoms being 'annoyed' at players making non-optimal decisions like. Jesus Christ.

It's literally a game and no one REAL PERSON is at their best 100% of the time and YOU DON'T KNOW THEIR CHARACTER BETTER THAN THEY DO, YOU ENTITLED PARASOCIAL WEIRDO. Maybe they had a good reason!! Who fucking cares it's adult pretend!!!!

If you were invited to a real tabletop session to watch and you critiqued the players at the table even half as scathingly as these folks online seem to think they're entitled to, the GM (and the players) would not invite you back and you would be lucky if you weren't ejected immediately.

Let's also not forget the vast majority of online critique of live-play tabletop players seems to be directed at people traditionally gatekept from ttrpg spaces IE poc/women/trans&nb folk/openly queer players. I fucking see you, gatekeeping assholes.

Celebrate and uplift people kind enough to share their live-play experiences.

Finally making its way to crowdfunding, Confluence: The Living Archive now has a landing page for our October 2024 Backerkit project! Click here and you can sign up to be notified on our launch next year!

Confluence is a ridiculous project. This TTRPG features a fantastic system for making your characters to go experience all that Ajurea, the land of Confluence, has to offer, but it also features diegetic Atlases (yes plural) that are massive books at 9 1/2x11". Diegetic meaning in-world, as if they were written by, used by, and doodled in by people from the world.

Some mechanics will be in the mechanics books, the catalog, but some will only be findable in particular locations within the Atlases, prompting you to explore the world at the table, and take pieces of the world into your character through unique regional specialties and traits.

We have been working on this for a while, a team of 14+, and are working our way through our playtests now, and making sure the material we put forward is everything you need to really delve into the incredible world of Ajurea. Come check out our team, see more art, and more over on the website!

Do you know this (noncanon) ADHD character?

Evidence below the cut!

can be pretty hyperactive, forgets things regularly (even important things, forgot he turned into a heartless in kh1), distractable, later on he seems to have some problems with emotional dysregulation. hes constantly called lazy by his friends but as soon as hes doing something he likes he has all the energy in the world, and also tends to dismiss his own intelligence despite actually being pretty smart, both of which are things that i think are decently common with undiagnosed adhd

Patreon Poll and Kickstarter Funds Update

Alright, we’ve had a weekend to rest and now it’s time to get back to work. We already have almost ten new snoops done and ready to be put in the rulebook, "FORIVA: The Angel Game" is almost completely reworked and ready for patreon re-release, and we might have new merchandise coming soon.

As soon as "FORIVA: The Angel Game" is done, we still start back work on editing the finished sections of the rulebook.

I have started brainstorming work on the Living Doll playable supernatural characters type, as well as the Talking Dog and several other stretch goals.

I’ll do anything to put off finishing these examples of play..

We are still waiting on more than 60 backers to finish their backer surveys, so we aren’t sending out emails regarding the custom rewards yet, we want to try to be able to do that all at once if possible. Even if all the backer surveys had been completed, we would still wait on a lot of the emails, because we would want to confirm our funds first before we tell our team artists to get to work on custom rewards. Kickstarter won’t actually give us the money until at least 2 weeks after the end of the campaign. We plan to pay them up front, so we gotta have the money before they start seriously working on the project.

Speaking of that, there are three backers from whom Kickstarter has been unable to collect payment. At the time of writing this, this accounts for about $371 of our funding. On Friday, May 17th, if these payments have not been resolved, Kickstarter will cancel them.

That means we won’t get the money and those backers won’t get their rewards. It’s probably just a matter of the bank marking their payment as suspicious, but it needs to be resolved before May 17th. If you’re a backer and you’re reading this, please check your Kickstarter account and your email to find out, and please try to get this resolved before Friday.

Next, I’ve got to talk about our patreon. Despite the major success of the Kickstarter, patreon is an essential part of making A.N.I.M. a long-term viable career.

You can find our patreon here. Subscribing for $3 or more will give you access to our patreon discord server where you can meet the team and offer direct feedback, as well as have a vote in what our next project will be. Subsribing for $5 or more will also give you access to regular, playable updates on all of our in-progress projects.

We will of course be posting updates on our progress in finishing Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy and adding the stretch goals on Kickstarter, but if you want to actually play these updates as they come out, you can do so by supporting our patreon for as little as $5. We know some of you will jump at this opportunity to get improved beta versions of Eureka early, and some of you will just wait until final release, but for those of you who would like to get the playable updates, we have a question.

Would you rather us officially update the patreon beta copies twice a month, or once a month? There are definite pros and cons to each one and that’s one of the reasons we’re asking the fans.

Twice a Month

Pros

More frequent updates

Cons

Updates will be smaller and less significant in how much each one will improve the game materials.

Updates that come too frequently could annoy the people who are actually trying to use the beta copies for their campaigns, as they may feel like have their campaign rules changing too frequently to memorize.

Once a Month

Pros

Updates will be much bigger and more significant

Gives more time for people who are playing with the beta copies to have several sessions in between rulebook updates.

Cons

Updates less frequently

The A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club

If you would like to meet the A.N.I.M. team and even have a chance to play Eureka with us, you can join the A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club discord server. It’s also just a great place to talk and discuss TTRPGs, so there is no schedule obligation, but the main purpose of it is to nominate, vote on, then read, discuss, and play different indie TTRPGs. We put playgroups together based on scheduling compatibility, so it’s all extremely flexible. This is a free discord server, separate from our patreon exclusive one. https://discord.gg/7jdP8FBPes

Free Beta Copies

If you don't want to wait, but don't want to sign up to our patreon either, then you can get an older beta copy for free on our website or itch.io page.

Other Stuff

We also have a ko-fi and merchandise if you just wanna give us more money for any reason.

[abalidoth]

not to tempt the ire of the All AI Is Ontologically Evil crowd, but...

I've been using Claude 3.5 to generate box text, worldbuilding skeletons, character blocks, and things like that for the D&D game I'm running, and it does a pretty damn good job. I have to tweak things, but it also pokes into corners of the worldbuilding that I genuinely wouldn't have thought to, and its context window is long enough to be cohesive between calls. Like, I can ask it for some adventure hooks, and it weaves in the factions and NPCs it's already generated.

It also knows enough 5e to give coherent NPC/monster stat blocks, which is nice. I'm not a game balance expert but they feel pretty much in line with stuff from the DMG/MM.
