Halaster's End of History.

My D&D settings books based on music videos from the 1980s will be available soon. This town? Is looking like a Ghost Town. Because Bustin Makes Me Feel Good. Because it's a Cruel Cruel Summer. Sledge-Hammer. Roll With It, my friends.

I trust my players. My players trust me. Whenever something does comes up, we fight it out with broken beer bottles and wrists lashed-together like we're in the Smooth Criminal video. Every once in a while, we hold a massive gang conclave and someone shoots Cyrus, and then it's all...

When my Action Man figures would fight my sister's Barbie dolls the Barbies always won because of the front push kicks. If you let Barbie dolls into your games, they'll kick everything to death. True fact.

Druids. Brown robes. Nature is as much a part of them as they are a part of nature. Annoying a druid is like sticking your face into a hornet nest and yelling "go away". It might look cool, but your face is gunna suffer. 1000% Primal. Ranger. Brown cloaks. Protecting nature is part of their...

And based on a D&D game, no less. You can even tell when the party turns up! I think The Scar does more world-building, and the Iron Council is his most personal novel, but Perdido Street Station is so strange, so familiar, and so lyrical all at the same time.

I prefer natural verbosity as the wiggle-room exists in the spaces between all those words.

Perdido Street Station by China Mieville

Then for you, it is not Morbin time.

The Donner Party should have packed more kebabs, is all I'm saying.

It's a mother-morbin' mother-morber, as in the movie Morbius, who we mother-morbers morb for. When it's morbin' time. It's a meme, ok?

I mean, what material is the spoon made of? Can I startle the ooze with my Intimidate skill? Do any of the PCs have experience cow-tipping? Is the GM asleep? If so, why are we arguing over ooze-flipping and not drawing some old-timey moustachious on the 'morber?

Some people ponder their orb. Others ponder their cube. The war is coming.

In certain martial arts that "disruptive jiggling" you speak of is called "breaking the center/disrupting the base" and also "ragdolling", so you could tell the GM your intent is to "disruptively jiggle the goblin until they break their base and are ragdollable" and all that on one single roll...

The big hill out the back of my house cos I know the foxholes and where the ground is really soft and also where I stashed all those stones two years ago. Also, Gary Gygax wrote the finest modules known to man. Exemplary, inspirational. Read them and understand them and you'll never need...

Side initiative. No one is so special they get to go first. Either your side wins, or your side loses.

I'm with you on this, though I have noticed that as we've gone up in levels in our PF2 game, each character very much has their own tactical 'groove' going on and we don't stray too far out of our lanes. It took 10+ levels to get there and I wonder if giving players the good stuff earlier might...

@Justice and Rule yeah I think we're disagreeing on details rather than fundamentals. A Home In Every Port means you (the PC with the feat) can scrounge up board and lodgings for the party for one night for free. Everyone else needs to pay up after schlepping around town for a few hours...

I am listening Bud, I'm just not agreeing with you. My ears are wide freaking open, I just ain't buyin what you're sellin. There's nothing implicit in having Critical Success Results, Success Results, failure states, and the idea of sliding difficulty around contradicting existing rumors all...

Yes, absolutely, any player in any game can attempt to start a rumor and it can be adjudicated by the referee without recourse to a rules text. However in PF2 the sow rumor feat is only for experts in the deception skill, and then it sets hard limits about what it can do, including the phrase...
