A quick question to GMs and world builders - what is your opinion on the idea of a "common" language?

I, personally, feel that having a language barrier between the players and parts of the world is an important tool that is a bit underused.

I never realised how bad I'm at managing socials until I've created this account. How do people make so many posts a day?

In March, I have focused my work on adding more subclasses and adjusting existing ones.

Will probably make compilation post about it soon.

Lyucian the Dealkeeper - overlord of hell

The Deity who built the very Hell from shards of Inferno. The supreme one who reigns above all devils, overseeing all contracts signed with blood. Lyucian's followers are honest, prideful, and cold in their judgment.

Diodys the Overseer - the keeper of secrets

The Deity that made locks to all knowledge that has ever reached hell. Their followers are socially detached scholars who keep others eternally silent to make collected knowledge exclusive and more precious

How many of you, worldbuilders, bother to work on your own calendar system? Do you feel like it is worth it to change names/legnth of each month, or even length of the year?

I have settled on 366 days long year, with 13 months, 28 days each + 1 day at the start and end of the year.

Miagron the Welcoming Cold - the heartless diplomat

The Deity that serves as Hell's main ambassador within other planes. Their followers are hard-hearted and polite strategists who can negotiate armistices and alliances while putting aside their emotions and principles.

I have overestimated how much I am able to work on Mortal Struggles on a 6-day work week... And I have two of these right after the holidays ended. So just doing some work behind the scenes and fixing minor issues for now. Will probably post more Deities in the coming days though

Ariniakh the Indulgent - keeper of third circle of hell

They reward loyal souls in afterlife, choosing the most deserving for ascension into devils. They promote pursuit of pleasure, no matter if it's born from cruelty, primal desire or pure love

Always get somebody to read your written material. The more text there is, the more likely it is you will see what you wanted to write when reading, instead of what you actually wrote

You may be surprised what mistakes you managed to never notice... I for sure was

Gigantic tip for GMs and players, both old and new;

Keep it in character, keep it at the table.

No, I'm not taking about RPing scenes.

I'm taking about when one PC and another PC have conflict with one another, IT STAYS AT THE TABLE.

You're playing characters, it's just a game!

Just finished adding 16 new Spells for all kinds of Mages to use. The total amount of Spells now increased to 373, without counting different damage type variations for certain combat oriented Spells and any of the Sigilscribing magic

Made a pause in updates for the holidays, will be getting back to work on the system now. Creating new Creatures was getting a bit tedious as of late, so will switch to filling gaps in spell lists for mages. It is always good to come back to earlier work with a fresh look

Sometimes I start blaming myself for being a sluggish developer. Then I remember that merely a yeard ago, Mortal Struggles existed as bunch of txt files on a discord server with no guides and half of its mechanics filled with placeholders... So it's fine

Gruhsaran the Succulent Torment - the keeper of souls

The Deity that brings unimaginable agony to the souls in their possession to generate energy that powers Hell itself. Their sadistic followers' only redeeming quality is unwavering loyalty to allies

One of the most complex parts of worldbuilding is balancing the availability of rare services/abilities. It is hard to set the price of teleportation in a way that it remains available to players as a premium service, but is not commonly used by trading companies

Prepared 14 Creature Sheets for Humanoid Species. Easy to use ability sets for a variety of commonly encountered archetypes should provide the GMs with enough material to quickly assemble a group of guards, adventurers or bandits

Will be working on Goblinoids now

More players' OCs today

Half-elf half-hobgoblin, Shaastra is at the beginning of her journey with no abilities gained yet. Armed with sickle, some leftover armor pieces she could find and a disarming smile

Rooting for her to survive her first adventure!

Goraizekh the Hellish Shield - ruler of the first circle of Hell

He is the protector of Hellish outskirt, from both Infernal and Celestial forces. His followers are known to fulfil any threat they make with zealous devotion, as it is seen as a promise to their God

Work on the system is going steady. Adding about 3 new Creatures daily

Ready to use Sheets with all required stats, short lore and appearance descriptions, but what is most important - detailed guides for use, so that GMs can quickly insert them into the game

That feeling when you find a typo and realize you probably have it on at least 20 more webpages, but can't be sure on which exactly out of 600... ctrl+f helps, but you still have to do it separatly on each

Today I have started to work on crafting more Creatures for GMs to throw at their Players. Currently there are only 90, which all belong to Beast and Undead types. I expect to have about 30 Humanoids ready for use by the end of the next week!

One more OC from Mortal Struggles players. Hun is an Andertal mercenary with a mix of Berserker and Rogue abilities. Accidently, just like the Gnoll from before - he is a great cook. He follows tenets of Goraizekh, so every threat of his is a divine oath
