Hello Sky, I just arrived here and look forward to connecting again with the many TTRPG creators and fans I lost when I left Twitter months ago. #TTRPG and video game enthusiast, connoisseur of VTTs. I love the indies. D&D, not so much, except BG3. Also, sometimes publish on chaosmeister.itch.io .

Diego Nogueira is taking a big step moving to Sweden to live a life of making art and TTRPG. His games are great and he is running a sale to get some more funds for the move. #ttrpg

Whats going on in the US is messed up, but at least Elle continues to throw out bangers. Though I would prefer a timeline where she could focus on more fun topics then the end of the world as we know it.

I am trying to do B as it is in my experience the better way. But I am somewhat stuck sometimes thinking too much about A. Lazy DM Method definitely helps in keeping me in the B lane.

Yea that sounds wild combo deck.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 1d

Gosh I listened to them up and down while reading the rulebook.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 1d

From the other cards in the game and how they work I would assume so.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 2d

Oh new Robin Hood series. Nothing will beat the old BBC series I fear. But I am always happy to see a new interpretation.

And Sean Bean is always fun to watch.

Which #ttrpg best captures the vibes and would work great to play games similar to the Penny Dreadful series? More on the light to medium side crunch wise, not a generic system like SWADE and more indie and niche than something like Vaesen for example. Any pointers? Cheers!

Too bad, I was hoping for some Robin Hood spoilers. Good luck at Spiel, see you there.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 6d

This was in preparatio and pre production long before Daggerheart was done. And Brennan had the choice then and decided to use the system he is most familar with. Yea, I was confused too why they did it but considering the timescales it makes sense.

Going to be fun to see what you bring! Any TTRPG on board?

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 6d

Investigations in type. Those combos do not make any sense yet, just throwing stuff up to see what sticks. You play Gothic style hunters ala Van Helsing in a world where the monsters are machines and Hunters are rock stars. #ttrpg #ttrpgdesign #fonts

The Title "Renown Leage of Hunters" in 14 different font styles. White text above blue background.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 6d

Thanks 👍 That helps a lot.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 6d

Vallejo did a lot of conan but not this one.

I just heard that the artist who made so many of my favourite movie posters, Renato Casaro, died. Those images are Iconic to this day and have shaped my and so many others imagination.

Catsuka @catsuka.bsky.social · 7d

RIP Renato Casaro, an Italian artist known for his film posters.
He passed away yesterday at the age of 89.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 6d

This is cute. Maybe a stupid question but how do you call this style of illustration? Just Back&White? Lineart? I am unfamiliar with the right terms and need art like this.

I never say no to your templates, your layout work is inspiring.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 8d

I am no artist but for my vibes I need a mock cover for my "Gothic Monster Hunters as Rockstars" game. I need to work with what I have. 2000 White Wolf vibes? Is that where I am at? Not sure how to improve this yet. #ttrpg

Cover of a book, red leather frame with a moody image of an old gothic ruin and gnarly dead trees under pale moonlight. The Title "Renown" in read as if sritten by a wide feather with red ink, at the bottom the subtitle "League of Hunters" in a spiky gothic font in a red and blue gradient imitating blood on steel.

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 8d

Too big in the sense of what's out there. But also as you say mechanics and the way it's supposed to be played is not for me.

Shiver looks nice, thanks. Vaesen fits the vibes, kinda, but is also pretty hefty I find. Not 5e hefty but still.

Good tip. I know the guy who wrote it! Do know it but it's too big. Even core rules only. :)

Marcus | Chaosmeister @chaosmeister.bsky.social · 8d

I am researching #ttrpg with a Gothic style setting, with monsters. Brotherhood of the Wolf, Van Helsing, Hänsel&Gretel, that kind of thing. I know there are a bunch for 5e, but I am looking more for Indie or NSR style games.
