As a GM, I try not to dwell on the possible solutions the players may come up with for the problems I create, but I never expected they’d actually befriend the lonely Gorgon in the Petrified Menagerie Room with kindness (and Anti-Petrification Goggles). #CastleFalkenstein #FateAccelerated

The Empress of Austria (aka King Ludwig's cousin Sissi) and Sir Richard Burton played hooky from the Tournament of Wits and Might to seek the Sunken Library of Atlantis in Castle Falkenstein. Our Intrepid Heroes were charged with their safe return. #CastleFalkenstein #FateAccelerated

Our heroes paid a faerie toll with a tragic tale of love lost, complete with musical accompaniment on tinkered instruments. The session ended with “Cardinal” Valerie the Master Thief of the World Crime League sealing Wojtek the Best Bareknuckle Boxer in All of Warsaw in a cage with Mistress Trapper.

I've grown to love writing random encounter tables for the players to roll or pick from. Just reading the entries helps build the world. I guiltily admit to using gen AI to help with this one.

The friends I play FlickFleet with love the game but we prefer collaborative play so I invented a new faction that threatens all of known space. We play tested it yesterday. The black poker chips represent the Shadows, enigmatic xenos that pop out of hyperspace to suck space ships into the void.

My Monday night Pathfinder group again one-shotted my scary antagonist, here a wounded storm giant who still had a lot of fight left in him. One of the things I'm grooving on is how the players are lining up synergies (spell buffs, flanking) to build critical hits. This is fun crunch.

We had the first planning session for our Fate (Accelerated) of Castle Falkenstein last night. The players are motoring that steam conveyance like they nicked it.
