Oh totally. I think the two of you have great chemistry. The convo flows very naturally and it’s interesting. I will say I did chuckle at some smaller errors you made xD Also saw you’ve done FU and Ryuutama which are favs of mine, so I’m gonna check those too!!

This was a great listen. Touched on a lot of stuff!

It's not been seven days yet, sure, but tomorrow is a Monday and the start of a new week, so here's the first week of #Mörktober in one post. CW: ticks, arachnids, spider-like appendages in the fourth image.

Monochrome square image with a black furred ghost sprouting fungal bodies. The text reads: Capra Sporelings. Even long before these black-hearted goats began consuming the fruiting bodies of the Branching Worm the herder feared them. If he still had the capacity to do so-so eaten away has his brain become-he would wish only for their slaughter.
HP5 MORALE 8 MYCELIUM HIDE -d2
RAM d4 and BITE d2 SPECIAL each group of capra sporelings have been re-molded by their fungal infection.
HOW HAVE THE GOATS BEEN RE-MOLDED

I. SHARED MIND: The goats each follow the same decision each round.

2. RUPTURING BODIES: Spores fill the air upon their death. Test TOUGHNESS or become infected.

3. FUNGAL MIMICS: Not actual capra sporelings. I HP, NO ARMOUR, but otherwise identical.

Image depicts a silhouette of a farmhouse on a low rise. All around it grow fields of severed limbs. Mycelium and fruiting fungus encroach on all sides, held back by the farmhouse somehow. The text depicts a comforting place, cursed to cause those who rest here to regrow lost limbs like a hydra. Apparently, the accused farmer is still here, locked in the basement, and wanting to murder the one who cursed him.

Image of a white crystal or mineral shard bearing a glyph featuring a triangle with circles branching from it.
The text reads:
Found embedded in a pile of rot and fungi.
Above it, its last carved glyph still sheds a cold and distant light.
Born from the memories of long dead stars, the shards bear the glyphs of beloved gods and forbears.
The Branching Worm still grieves for its mother, and so this shard was formed.
THIS A PERSON KNOWS UPON FIRST HOLDING THE PALE SHARD:

Pierce your flesh with the shard to displace yourself and those around you to the most recent location this shard was used to carve its Glyph.

The shard deals d2 damage, +1 for every creature displaced.

THIS REMAINS UNKNOWN TO THOSE WHO USE IT:

The pale shard can only displace twenty living creatures before it shatters, instead sending those in that final displacement to the Shards of the Cosmos.

This pale shard has already displaced d10 living creatures.

Image is of a monochromatic landscape, a tree silhouette framing the left edge of the image. A bloated and monstrous tick the size of a calf crawls over its roots accompanied by its nymph young.

The text reads:

Marrow Ticks.

These bastards have always been here, drawn by the trees of the ossuary. They were-until of late-poisoned and driven back by those who live and work in the woods.

When encountered, roll d666

For every 1 and 2 rolled, an adult marrow tick is encountered.

For every 3, 4 and 5 rolled 1d4 nymphs furtively latch onto a different character.

Every 6 is a lucky escape.

Those latched onto begin to see branching threads of ephemeral light reaching from the soil.

The DR of all tests is increased by 1 for each tick, and the character cannot heal from resting.

A visual check will always reveal a marrow tick nymph. Removal of the parasite hurts like hell; d2 damage per tick removed.

ADULT MARROW TICK

HP 12 MORALE 10 IRON BITE d6 SPECIAL bursts upon death. Those coated become INFECTED. Uses its incredible bulk to pin victims. Test AGILITY DR12 to avoid. Once pinned, its next IRON BITE deals d12 and shatters bone on 10+.

I made this big ass tree for my daggerheart spooky one shot. It’s got bones!

A gigantic thick ass tree trunk with twists and knots extending out of frame, surrounded by human and animal bones and a smaller tree that is still quite large but is about 1/10 of the larger tree. The colors are muted orange, green, and brown with a vignette framing the tree

I once gave someone a “ok whatever” and they blocked me. Like, I win twice!!

MBL is more heroic (you do more cool stuff, you’re stronger, etc) and combat is more dynamic (you “spend” dice rolls of 4+ to push the target or block their weapon, etc) and focuses on myths and politics and legacy. But the rolls are mostly the same. Super easy to pick up if you know EB!!

Could’ve been that the encounter was so horrible he can’t forget it 😂

My first thought: damn that cover looks great with that lighting!! 20s later: 🤔

Thank you so much 😭. Positive feedback like this is always so great to hear. Yeah Chris was great to chat to. We all had questions that we really wanted to ask, so that was super fun.

This was a lot of fun to record and it's great to share it now with listeners. Check the episode description in your podcast app for a (fairly exhaustive) list of timestamps. From bone magnets to mythic stews to railing against roads, you're covered.

I absolutely adore the chaos of these publications. The text describes bat wings that the artist wasn’t told about. There’s 2d6 damage unaccounted for. And sleep gas is mentioned in passing like it’s just common knowledge. Amazing!

Love me a visionary like Leader Tartess!! And what an optimist!

Damn. Looks great and really nails the vibe. Some tasty stuff!

It’s phrases like “meat veil” that really elevate your writing, lol. 😆

Putting into words what I’ve been turning in my head for a while!

Does this take still stand for 5e? I feel a lot of starting GMs do kinda need to hear it.

This is on the money. I have so much fun at my monthly open table games. The game could be wacky/dramatic/tactical all depending on the players. Still chat with some folks who showed up years ago!

…the commoner tell their kids. One story tells of a knight dying and another of them growing old. Not unlike the real stories of Arthur or even the greek mythological stories!!

Good piece. But I kinda disagree with the killing-chars-in-flashbacks as a bad thing. There are (mythic) ways to solve it (someone else stepped in, actually a twin, faked death, etc etc) or you could lean into the literary element. I like to view the sessions as creating the stories that…

Funny thing is my players tried to take out the sun, but he bargained for his life. About half an hour later one of my players goes “would’ve actually been kinda horrid if we had killed the sun”. 🤣

In our latest episode we got @bastionland.bsky.social to discus the looooong road to Mythic Bastionland (and beyond). And now we gotta wait until ep 22 for his next guest spot 😅

Yeah agreed. Also I was pretty fortunate that when I was running 5e one-shots like 95% of players knew at least how attacks and advantage worked.

Strange take imo. One-shots are very doable, seems more like a question of scope. The more I run (I think I’ve made and run about 30-40 now) the more I lean into improv, which helps to adapt to your table’s pacing.

The two children is a cool touch. Very serendipitous of the dice!! I think the table not wanting to time jump is a common occurrence. Unfortunate since it can change so much in quite an interesting way!
