Hey, why don't you and I get out of here and we hit the strip and get real rowdy under this full moon? Would you like that? It was only a matter of time before Werewolf hit my game run, and you'll be in the pack. Join up today!

It's tough out here being a Pro-GM that's demisexual and runs romance games. But tougher knowing that many Women, Trans, NB, and Queer folk do not have tables to pursue romance in TTRPGs safely. I'll give my spoons to hold the space for them.

I find that it addresses many etiquette issues, helps folks new to TTRPGs find an anchor amid the pressure of getting started, and fosters better RP skills.

That shift changes how we see success, takes pressure off decision-making, reinforces their role and responsibility in the story, and challenges them to make interesting choices by setting them up in situations they do not like rather than focusing on emulation and reaction to encounters.

Let me tell you, there is a lot of grief in having to practically restart the creative space you took 5 years to build while watching others continue to benefit from it. No amount of pride in what you can accomplish changes the frustration.

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.
[quoting a tweet from isabelunraveled in which she rails against depressing books that get branded as “great writing”]

I'm definitely open to negotiation. A player who can offer something with a good replacement is fine by me. I had a player in a VtM game ask me which attribute I'd choose to pair with the intimidation skill so he could stack his dots in it. I find the question limiting because of the separation of

I'm not a fan of players asking me what I'll call for skill checks so that they can build their characters around that. I weigh a lot of things when I call skill checks, and it puts unnecessary expectations on me when I don't call the check the way a player wants me to.

"We'll edit it in post" NO, ACTUALLY. We, as a video-based TTRPG performance space, cannot afford that, outside of like *maybe* a dozen studios. As someone who advocated hard for the concept of pre-recording shows before CR or D20 popularized it, that wasn't to encourage *more* labor to the show.

because accountability is seggsy, we've raised $340 for Feed The People. That'll feed SO MANY BELLIES; with school out, parents are struggling to keep their kiddos fed. Orgs like Feed the People are absolutely vital in our Black communities.

Implication is always more exciting to provide than just telling what happened. Rooting your player characters and the choices made at the table to engaging elements allows them to consider these things in future actions and enrich their roleplay.

AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Combinations of these give weight to unsettling action of feeding without having to describe the blood, extreme violence, or gore, if safety around these themes needs to be considered.

AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Reflection: Have players confront their characters' actions and internal monologues to provide the weight themselves and give the table context for experiencing the scene.
120
AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Space: Describe the city traffic, or a flock of birds flying away, or a mouse eating scraps in a hole in the wall. How the world reacts to the action in the moment has weight.
120
AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Thematically: The story you're telling has themes and tropes. Talk about how this act is related to it.
120
AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Humanity: No reason not to tell them how monstrous the beast can be and realize it is just them looking at a mirror. Frame it as something that the character is learning about themselves in the moment.
120
AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
Sensory: Describe what the senses take in, the way a sneaker scrapes across tile, how the fragrance from lilies has a way of masking the iron in the air, or how the pressure softens on the hands that were resisting. This indulges the imagination while grounding it in how we process the scene.
130
AghostofEli @aghostofeli.bsky.social · 16/06/2026
We commonly understand that the core of a kindred is that blood must be consumed to sustain it. So, blood will be in the scene. Instead, I focus on two questions: What can we focus on? How can we enhance the action a player has taken to make it feel monstrous?

A prospective player asked me how I could handle feeding in a vampire game when blood often sits in my veils for safety. To which I responded: Blood is not what makes a vampire scary.

If the roleplay has not brought uncertainty to the scene, then there is no reason to roll dice.

The Soothwardens Quickstart is great way to play the game. But the real sauce is coming with the full book. Character archetypes, special antagonists, Facades... 👀 One archetype that I'm especially excited about is the Soothsayer. First of our Mage Type, 1/x ttrpg.link/soothwardens
