Hi there! I'm ket, a Forever-GM for a long running #CallofCthulhu campaign with Pulp Cthulhu rules. I'm a fan of Horror RPGs and I'm also interested in other systems like Delta Green & Mothership!

I like to post about my campaign/homebrew scenarios, my cats, writing, and sometimes video games.
A "shelfie" showing off some of the things on top of my Gaming Shelf. Items include, from left to right: Back row: A Cthulhu Squishmallow. A Dice Holder with Cthulhu emblazoned on it. A Psyduck candy dispenser. A mug with the Yellow Sign. A Cat-Bat plush from NYCC 2019, Middle Row: Murkrow and Skarmory plushes, with matching Pokemon TCG cards. A dice set made to look like a revolver cylinder and bullets. A set of 36 D6s. A plaque with a dragon on it Front row: A metal plate with a branch Elder Sign and a verse of Cassilda's Song engraved on it. A "Spirit" card from Many Worlds Tavern coffee. A 3D printed coin with The Yellow Sign and a set of tarot-style cards from the Carnival of Madness CoC One-shot. Another metal plate with a branch Elder Sign. And a fidget spinner with dice values on it and a dragon motif.

My brother in Christ, YOU are the reason it couldn't work out! Your decisions made it so you can't come into that server!

Yall, if you try to join a fucking TTRPG server, a hobby that is known for art, writing, storytelling, imagination, and this is your response to "We literally only have one rule"...

You are the problem.
Joanna Blackhart [They/Them] — 00:14 Hey [USER REDACTED]. Thanks so much. I just wanna let you know before I link you that we don't allow genAI content on our server, and that includes stuff like profile pictures. If you can abide but that, I'm happy to link you ^^ [USER REDACTED] — 00:19 Oh ok, I get that. I do have an ai generated picture for my profile at the moment. I understand the ai stealing from artists issue, but I don't currently want to change my profile picture. Sorry it couldn't work out.

Another great piece of my Pulp #CallOfCthulhu campaign's BBEG! Thank you @demondionysus.bsky.social <3

Turns out the secret to a good villain is to make someone that your players and friends end up crushing on, despite (or because of?) them being evil 🤔

Gift for the awesome @ketpia.bsky.social of his character Clara from his #CoC game! 🎨
A digital painting of a woman with a brown Bob hairstyle that has been curled. She is smiling facing slightly to the left with her head tilted up slightly, and looking at the viewer. She is wearing some kind of white fur coat or boa that is covering her shoulders and neck. The background is a red wallpaper with an ornate pattern that looks almost like an eye. The picture is in a light gold frame that is engraved with a swirling pattern all around it.

Had an absolutely fantastic #DeltaGreen session last night. The Agents grappled with the reality of the one solution they had for the activity at the Spooner Avenue house, had some great roleplay with inter-cell tension, for one of the Agents to volunteer to be a sacrifice....

They managed to get away with an old laptop, a journal written in Arabic, and severe physical and emotional damage. Two rush to find a translator, while two rush to the hospital. As they leave everyone's cellphones get a text message: "You will die in this house."

SUCH a good session <3

trying to find the promised solution, all while the entity there does its darndest to separate and hurt them.

One agent got attacked by something in a crawlspace. Another agent nearly killed that one while possessed. The others saw strange apparitions and fended off vicious attacks.

Just as @cutiecakes.bsky.social's Agent started to accept her decision, her phone rang. Unknown number. An unknown voice offering a chance at another solution, if they go back to the house and find it. Is it a trap? Or a way out?

Cue a frantic series of events as they dig through the house-

A while ago I started Music From a Darkened Room for #DeltaGreen using tips from @rpg-reanimators.bsky.social. One of their resources has stuff to put in the Green Box, like a cursed lawn gnome. Agent GNOMEY has since become the Cell's mascot.

My players just got me Agent GNOMEY for my birthday 😭

And strange moons circle through the skies.

We got Maya to draw this picture because drawing beautiful women still makes me so shy that I always just clear the canvas and walk away. Maya is my opposite in this area.

Look at how wonderful our villain, Clara, looks! We like to spoil our Call of Cthulhu players sometimes with amazing guest art.

so if you were planning on buying my book but were like idk I'll wait until it shows up in front of me somewhere" know that buying it now will not only help ensure I get to make another book, but it will also help me stick it to the faceless jerks who pre-decided my book was gonna fail

Anything that is like an artificial attempt at copying sentient life. Clockwork constructs, animated life-size marionettes, golems and homunculi, etc etc. Stuff that approaches that creepy uncanny valley vibe

Or dragons. I friggin' LOVE dragons

The BBEG of our Pulp #CallOfCthulhu campaign! Clara, the immortal leader of a small sect of the Brotherhood of the Yellow Sign that has started to make some very confusing moves from the Investigator's viewpoints.

🎨 Every time I try to draw something scary for our Call of Cthulhu game, the players just call it cute TT_TT
I'm trying!!!
art of a wolf except it's mostly incorporeal and mostly appears to be made of wind. There is debris and random litter like glass, papers, and smashed bottles being whipped around by the creature's winds.

Woke up this morning to see apricot had put this on my desk. I took the hint and I'm SO happy I did.

Everything about @keezyyoung.bsky.social 's Hello Sunshine is wonderful. It's creepy, and beautiful, and just truly amazing. I was crying by the end.

You really should read this if you get a chance

Happy #HelloSunshine day & congrats to @keezyyoung.bsky.social!

Thank you for making this beautiful, emotional, haunting book. Hello Sunshine is the kind of story that changes you. I wholeheartedly recommend folks read it.

I also want to point out the tasteful spot gloss on the cover. A+ design ❤️
A graphic novel called Hello Sunshine, with the photo taken from above. The cover art shows four teens and a dog standing in a field of white flowers. Closer to the viewer and hidden by red and orange flowers, another teen sleeps while demonic hands begin to wrap around him. Next to the comic, a gray kitty is sleeping in an eerily similar pose to the sleeping teen boy. You can't tell in the photo, but the title, the author's name, and the centers of the red and orange flowers (which resemble eyeballs) all have a spot gloss on them to help those elements stand out.
