After (Part 1)
Present Perfect Continuity

Character Idea: A Novel character that is pretty smug after that genie fulfilled their wish; the genie thought it was clever when it turned them into a bird-fox but little did it know this was exactly what they were hoping for when they asked to be both “sly and graceful” (After p. 37)

Character Idea: A Novel character that knew taking their gorilla to work on “Take Your Pet to the Office Day” was a bad idea; the other scientists got him all riled up and next thing you know, we’ve fallen into the supercollider and I’ve got gorilla limbs and he’s got human legs (After p. 35)

Character Idea: A Legion character that constantly summons a series of skullheaded wraiths that mirror the character’s physical properties perfectly; the whole troop move as a group and no one is ever quite sure which one is the master and which are the summoned abominations (After p. 34)

Character Idea: A Legion character who spent much of their life as a crime lord, summoning impish shadows to steal and threaten; now the character is trying to make up for their earlier transgressions but as it turns out people still run in terror whenever they show up… (After p. 32)

Character Idea: An Inexorable character that makes sure the ships crew is kept safe as houses when the smuggling job goes sideways; Seymour, their snake, keeps their Pythonic Baton topped up with the alien energies necessary to smash and batter their way through any problem (After p .31)

Character Idea: An Inexorable character that just wanted to retire to the zinc pastures to look after their hyper cattle but fate had other plans; now the character straps on their blaster and dons their duster for one last ride across the mechano planes on their trusted steed (After p. 29)

Character Idea: A Bolstered character that bears a set of wildly intelligent glasses that displays a heads up display of whatever information is most needed in the moment; the glasses feed on perceiving beauty and the character as a result is constantly at museums and galleries (After p. 28)
November 15, 2025 at 5:00 PM
Character Idea: A Bolstered character with an alien multidimensional companion that feeds on secrets sucked straight from the megacorps that the character carves a path through, wielding a longblade so harmoniously it’s referred to as their second companion (After p. 26)
November 8, 2025 at 5:00 PM
Character Idea: An Opposed character who is constantly on the run from the Mysterious Brotherhood of the Ouiji who believe there is only one appropriate means to divine the future; good thing referencing this magic 8 ball for a head keeps them one step ahead! (After p. 21)

Character Idea: An Inexorable character who has been fleeing from their nemesis after losing control and demolishing a stationary store, the owner of which turns out to really carry a grudge; they now plumb the depths of dark forests and black caves, ferreting out the best hiding spots (After p. 20)
October 18, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Character Idea: An Unknowable character that discovered that the most evolved life form in any domain is the unassuming chicken; a series of incantations allowed the character to merge with the most intelligent chicken known, and as luck would have it, the chicken is really funny (After p. 19)
October 11, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Character Idea: A Renowned character who holds the ecclesiastical office of Holy Bishop of the Diocese of Docktown; the massive crab crawled forth from the depths of the nearby ocean and immediately began converting the residents of the city to the Church of the Living Coral (After p. 16)
October 4, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Domain Idea: A solid plane of mirrored glass; as characters walk across it, they perceive similar, but different, forms in the reflections below, such as an axe wielding orc being reflected as a morningstar wielding hobgoblin. They mostly mimic the character’s movements precisely... mostly.

Never would have fund Arkenstone Publishing's weird gem of a game called Zombie Cinema without @timhutchings.bsky.social. Had a great time playing even though every single one of us died.

Waffles for Esther is an absolute delight of a solo RPG game by @pandiongames.com - my character Maude lost sight of Esther immediately due to a disco-themed high school fundraiser that unexpectedly sprung up, and things kinda got weird after that.

Character Idea: An Inexorable character who is an angel, cast out of heaven for refusing to act as a soldier in the conquering choirs; yet even as you are among those mortals you swore not to subjugate, the instinct to unsheathe the sword is incredibly hard to overcome.
September 20, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Character Idea: An Opposed character who is trying to eke out an unliving solving murders, chasing down leads, and helping out mysterious clients; if only the local police force wasn’t so ornery about it and entirely staffed with paladins who have this tedious issue with the undead (After p. 15)
