I am so freaking excited! Tonight, my friends are creating their Mage: the Ascension characters for a new chronicle in our Montréal of Darkness setting! We played a C20 campaign, a Hunter: the Reckoning one. Both before the pandemic. We get to revisit our city with my 2nd favourite WoD game!

Because there's still good stuff happening: Using Mage 20th anniversary to teach about worldviews is proving to be both highly challenging and highly rewarding. Much reading and thinking involved. Plus, students are total neophytes when it comes to ttrpgs. But that's precisely what I dig!

2026 is the year I’ll make some of the boldest moves ever with my teaching: - Use a game I designed specifically for philo 102 - Base a whole humanities class around Mage: the Ascension - Give a 2 days training to colleagues from another college May the Cosmos allow it!

Whenever I see this article I’m going to share it, because everyone connected to higher ed needs to read this for a great if chilling overview of the bone deep infection that gAI has become in the system.

Brought all my WoD stuff in my office. Working on the next season of "Montréal des Ténèbres" after a 6 years hiatus. Thinking of revisiting our Hunter characters as a prologue to a Mage chronicle.

Found it in very good condition for only 20$! I'd need Dark Age: Mage and M20 Victorian Age to complete the whole set. We'll see... ;)

@satyrosphilbrucato.bsky.social Great news! I got official permission to use M20 material for my Worldviews class! I can finally start working on building the whole course and the M20 handouts!

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 16/11/2025

Finally managed to come up with a game for my philo 102 course! Students will play alien xenoarcheologists who visit Earth when humans have disappeared. They will uncover all kinds of traces left by mankind and will use them to answer questions of philosophical anthropology!

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

Now that I have most of the M20 books I want, here’s my reading order: Corebook Book of Secrets Lore of the Traditions Technocracy Reloaded Forbidden and Forgotten Orders Book of the Fallen Gods & Monsters Sorcerer Operative Dossier How do you do that? I need to pick up pace, though

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

5 new books arrived today! My M20 collection is pretty much complete! The only ones that are missing are those for which I have very little interest. Might get them later just for the sake of having them all, but there's no rush

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

Currently reading the Mage: the Ascension 20th anniversary corebook. One thing I love about this edition is how nuanced the presentations of the different factions are. Traditions are not simply the good guys. Technocracy are not simply the bad ones. Can't wait to read the factions books.

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 10/11/2025

Another mail call! Looks amazing! I also think it's easy to adapt for other games than Mörk Borg. Good job @evlynmoreau.bsky.social , @satelitesnaturales.bsky.social!

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 05/11/2025

Lovely suprise when I got home! I ran the original version as a DCC funnel. Now, I can't wait to revisit using either Mörk Borg or Shadowdark! Amazing work revamping it, @evlynmoreau.bsky.social !

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

@satyrosphilbrucato.bsky.social I found a copy for a very reasonable price! There’s even a CD in it. It looks like it’s a signed copy, too! Whenever I grab one of your games, there’s always some weirdness attached to it, apparently. :)

Do you wish computers were for you to make art with, and not just to make money for your boss's boss? Then you probably want in on the Oblique Palette project. Make a computer that's part of a #modularsynth that has #robot parts and is programmed with […] [Original post on xeno.glyphpress.com]

The Oblique Palette is a control panel with eight analog knob inputs and eight analog (and servo!) outputs. It has little blinky lights to tell you the voltage level you're communicating on each channel.
Not shown: the plugdata patch that controls these inputs and outputs, allowing you full programming control of voltage levels, sampling both the real world (either through twisting knobs or by designing controllers) and the outputs of electronic instruments, and returning programmed responses in the form of control voltage and servo rotation.
It's for making computers that are for making art, fucking around, and falling in love.

Yeah, they also tried to trick me into paying for their “AI.” Pay attention every time they say they’re increasing their fees bc they are likely sneaking things past you.

Such a fun game! We played a short campaign that everyone enjoyed. I also used it to teach a college class about Worldviews! (With generous permission from the creators!) Don't sleep on it!

I finally found a mint copy of Mage 20th Anniversary deluxe edition!!! The "regular" one still holds a special place in my heart because of how I stumbled upon it. (Ask me about it. It's a cool anecdote.)

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 13/10/2025

If I'm being honest, deep down, the old World of Darkness is still my favourite setting ever. Shadowrun comes close 2nd. And that is despite 20+ years of playing mostly other games.

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 11/10/2025

I believe most ttrpg GMs have a game they deeply love but never get to play enough. Mine is Mage: the Ascension. Amazing magick system, deep philosophical ideas, hope and rebellion as themes. So much to love! What's yours?

Hey @satyrosphilbrucato.bsky.social it's me again! Suppose I'd wish to use Mage in the context of teaching a college course about worldviews, who would I need to contact to get permission to distribute sections of books or even the whole quickstart as class material?

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

@satyrosphilbrucato.bsky.social I hope you don't mind me pinging you about M20. I was wondering if there was a published book about the Marauders. I got both Technocracy and Book of the Fallen. Where could I find more material about the Mad Ones?

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 14/09/2025

Played our first Blood Borg session last night. I ran "Raid the Normie Club" and we all had a great time! Our own 198X felt closer to 1987 as we reminisced about ad jingles and other references. Looking forward to play it again! Good job, @worldchamp.bsky.social !

I've 99% of Farewell to Arms REDUX from @rivetheadgames.bsky.social and it's definitely one of the best Borg games that's not from Stockholm Kartell! There's only one thing I'm not sure I got right: squad combat rules for anything bigger than a 5-men squad Anybody could explain?

This AI Studio Ghibli thing is so extremely disrespectful and tasteless, for some reason perhaps more so than the usual AI filth. Looting and plundering decades of hard work by someone you claim to love, like a pack of fucking lazy-ass uncreative leeches. Go to hell.

As a GM, I've decided that I will always have at least one backup campaign in case we miss someone for the main campaign. Ideally, I'd also like to adopt a practice where even for main campaign, if we have minimum 3 players who can make it, we play. But, atm, I'd feel bad doing so to our group.

Last night, we concluded our short campaign of Agon 2e by @johnharper.bsky.social We played 5 islands over several months as it was our backup campaign. Tons of fun and I'm very happy we chose that game since it was easy to resume on the spot. 10/10 highly recommend

domclaveau.bsky.social @domclaveau.bsky.social · 23/03/2025

Next campaign is in the works! I offered 3 games by @worldchamp.bsky.social and the group picked Blood Borg. Prequel will feature our MB characters from a previous campaign!
