I like systems that offer a variety of character options, but not necessarily a vast array of complex moving parts. D&D 5e is simpler than Pathfinder, storytelling is just as robust. FATE Core has robust storytelling and simple mechanics, but people who are uncomfortable with storytelling don't...

I served in the Philippines in the Peace Corps, and there is a lot of subtle Japanese influence even as far south as Tacloban. (Tikbalang are by all accounts a northern monster.) Most of it is due to WWII, but it would be ignorant to think that such close neighbors were out of contact with each...

Tikbalang are a fairly obscure Filipino monster. Thumbs up!

One thing to remember is that design exists to solve problems. A lot of the subclasses/subclasses I write for EN5ider exist to solve gaps within D&D's storytelling and to make it accessible to people who have exposure to different (but none the less good) stories. I completely agree with...

*feels foolish* I THOUGHT I remembered you fending off the trolls!

Let's get 50% of RPG authors to be female first, eh?

Can I just say that promoting the voice of an under-represented population in your industry actually increases equality?

Trippy!

I congratulate Green Ronin for their call for female authors. It is interesting to me that all-female environments allow women to grow and express themselves in a way that "equal" environments of mixed sexes do not. I know that sexism still exists because my family is full of strong women, and...

I didn't know you and the cardcaster were experimenting! ;p

At the time of this post, you guys are 400% funded! Stretch goals?

In the preview it shows the writing as being done by "various authors." Will the authors be credited by name at the front of the document?

Special bonus inside for fans of the D&D cartoon!

Two points is enough to form a line, but a betting man would not use it to make assumptions. Three points is the first possible time one is able to form an averaged inference, but it is still not that great. Since you're good at math, I am sure you can appriciate my point that the series is just...

Exactly enough.

There've been three. :/

It would be a little bit different, because the character mechanics are not at all similar. A past-present-future spread would work pretty well for Fate Core. That would allow you to determine your character's main concept and weakness. When establishing relationships with other players, perhaps...

(First of all, random tarot generators are available online.) I was actually going to mention the tarokka in my OP. I don't see why you can't, but it will take a little imagination. The Tarokka deck has 54 cards, which is more than enough to randomize 12 slots. In many ways, having...

EXAMPLE 2: Using a Flavor Card In this example, I’m using the variant spread to essentially let the cards choose my supporting flavor for me. For my class, I have Eight of Cups. I see the emotional element of cups, and my mind jumps to some sort of divine class. Either cleric or paladin...
