Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 05/12/2025Lexember Day 5 (Not near my laptop to make lexicon screenies today) Theme: "Something to cook with" /ambɹaçðad/ "A reagent vessel for potioneering" Originally this meant a type of large roast pot that you buried in the ground, but the meaning shifted. #lexember #conlang 040
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Lexember Day 3 Today's theme is a "dish for eating", which led to a few new additions to the lexicon, to arrive at: Thidmaro "unrisen seedbread" Lit. "meadow bread" There is also risen bread, and I have ideas for that (it's not quite our yeast culture method) but more on that later #lexember 040
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Lexember Day 2 Theme: "a way to make food for eating" This one goes all the way back to the ancient proto-language, propagating to all daughter languages including UrbaniLang: Shüadsvaun "to boil" #lexember #conlang 050
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Lexember Day 1 (a bit late) Second time joining this, making a word for my conlang each day of December. Today's theme: "a way to prepare food" And I went a bit overboard with the worldbuilding, inventing a whole culinary tradition for my speakers of UrbaniLang (true name pending) #lexember 040
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Yes! That chase across Europe felt so tense! We were always just a few days behind, until Istanbul... If you wonder why NBA ranks very high of our weekly games, this is part of it 120
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 15/11/2025That took quite a turn. This game and its random rolls really generated the spy thriller :O 010
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 05/11/2025I'm doing my first run of this, and so far it's told the story of a mission which can not seem to take off amid self-perpetuating complications, and the leading agent trying to keep his spirit up despite it all. Just enough prompt to feed the drama, and I am terrified to roll the next die 120
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Wondrous insight from my 4 year old: Trees can't talk. Because trees are houses for squirrels and owls, and houses can't talk. Checks out. No notes 000
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 05/10/20252. Suggestions for how to add magic / scifi / fantasy to the setting. I would be delighted to 'play at Harry Potter' with this system. 030
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 05/10/2025Have not played it yet, but just from the rulebook, I think the following might be useful: 1. If the rules support different kinds of schools, having a second example that shows a whole other sort of school from the existing example, so the players get a sense of the sliding scale of possibility 110
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 22/09/2025If 4 years doesn't count as 'too soon', who are we to judge? XD 010
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 09/09/2025This one lives in my brain to be remembered when it becomes very relevant 000
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 08/09/2025Looking forward to trying this out... when we find time in our schedule :) 110
Reposted by Rogier v. D.Finn @finncullen.bsky.social · 07/09/2025With considerable pride and anxiety I've just published my first rpg on itch - a cosy pbta engine game of post-war boarding school adventures inspired by Enid Blyton's Malory Towers & St Clares novels. It's PWYW so feel free to take a look! #rpg #malorytowers finncullen.itch.io/blaydon-gran...finncullen.itch.ioBlaydon Grange - boarding school ttrpg by finncullenCosy boarding school stories, powered by the apocalypse, inspired by Blyton 102
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 23/07/2025I know my game group would have so much fun with this :D @finncullen.bsky.social 000
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 29/05/2025As a solid He/Him (so grain of salt), I think it indicates that they vary day to day if they feel like a 'he' or a 'they' right then? Like edge-case Enby 000
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 05/05/2025Also led to its cousin: the Droeftoeter. Literally "sad-honker". Someone who is petty or pathetic in a negative way. 3183
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Also on our crew is a baby. Like, an infant. She did some research (asking us) on what baby's like to eat, so we are prepared. I wonder what the baby's roll on the mission is? 000
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 04/04/2025I showed my (young) child a video of the Apollo 11 launch. Now she's decided the whole house is our rocket going to the moon. I am so pleased :D But I have to also bite my tongue not to correct her on "misconceptions", shall we say 100
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 25/03/2025I love the twist within a paragraph from great schemes to 'human' panic. No more strategems or tactics, just an all hands on deck mad scramble. We can be the world's most refined smart person, when a cup falls off the table, we all look as silly swinging desperately to catch it 030
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 24/03/2025Who are the (top) five writers who made you? Andy Weir JK Rowling Stephanie Meyer (odd choice, but I can explain) Aaron Sorkin (technically a screenwriter of course) Guus Kuijer 010
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 14/03/20251. D&D 3.5e 2. D&D 5e 3. That's hard to say between Fate, Night's Black Agents and D&D. We mix it up 4. D&D 5e 5. Gonna be Night's Black Agents, for its cherry mechanic and tactical variety 6. Savage Worlds 7. Fate Core 040
Rogier v. D. @klappertjes.bsky.social · 13/03/2025This looks like it could be promising. Love the idea of playing a cast of characters over the generations 010
