We're at the end of the month and so at the end of looking at the most common magic types in our far-future mythology-focused TTRPG setting of The City. For our last post this month, we thought we'd highlight how versatile our system is by looking at the ways- #ttrpg #rpg

Our final magic type in our TTRPG far-future setting of The City is a simple one; Transmutation. The magic of transforming things into other things, Transmutation has, until recently, been a colour of magic only used through magic items and rituals. However- #ttrpg #rpg

The next type of magic you can use in our mythology-focused far-future setting is Wuxing. Learning Wuxing requires a lengthy and complex ritual, and it is likely to be an ongoing goal throughout an adventure. Wuxing focuses on the flow between five phases; Water, Earth, Fire,- #ttrpg #rpg

Today, we're looking at Nature Magic in our TTRPG setting: The City. Nature magic is perhaps the most generic kind of magic in this system, encompassing everything you would expect; the manipulation of plants, animals, water and the earth itself. There are many- #ttrpg #rpg

Next on our magic month, we’re looking at Telepathy. Telepathy is the umbrella term for a large collection of colours of magic based around manipulation of the mind. This includes manipulating emotions, reading and changing thoughts and even mind control, although

Starting off our magic month for our ttrpg setting, The City, we have Ancestor Magic. Ancestor Magic is one of the easiest magics to wield in the City (due to everyone having an ancestor), and can be gained through ritually summoning a willing ancestor who then #ttrpg #rpg

We've been hard at work on our setting guides, and thought we would share some of the stuff we've been working on. So for the month of July, we're going to be posting about magic in our far future gothic cyberpunk setting of The City, starting today with a brief overview and

Today we're going to talk about villains in ttrpgs, and what we think is the most important thing when making your villains (a 🧵): Villains are your story's primary or secondary antagonists, and so are some of the most important NPCs in your roleplay. These villains don’t necessarily need to (1/5)

Our AOTW: Deal with the Devil. An ability that allows you to play as a classic deal-making, soul-consuming devil, this is only one of many abilities we have around collecting and using souls (with others available on our database at www.phoenixroleplays.com/ability-dire...). #ttrpg #rpg

Following up on our Ability of the Week, what would you choose if you could magically make one idiom or saying real at any time? 'Feel like a million bucks' for free money? 'Over the moon' for some quick space travel? 'Piece of cake' for free cake whenever you want? Let us know!

Phoenix Roleplays @phoenixroleplays.bsky.social · 17/06/2025
Our AOTW: Voice of the Old Humans. Whilst too strong for players (with 'knock them dead', or 'taking candy from a baby' being particularly powerful in our playtests), this makes a very interesting villain ability, or could be weakened to be usable for players. What do you think?

Following up from our thread earlier this week about plot twists and reveals in roleplays, what is your favourite plot twist or reveal in anything? Films, TV shows, games, books, just any twists you think are amazing!

Today we're going to talk about plot twists and reveals, and what makes them good. A plot twist is an unexpected reveal or development in a roleplay, and needs to be done carefully and planned for if you want one in your roleplay. #ttrpg #rpg

Here we have the weakest ability on our ability database (which you can check out at www.phoenixroleplays.com), Teddy. Created for a oneshot where you play as children trying to avoid being kidnapped by Krampus, it's not one we'd recommend, but we're a big fan of it anyway.

Our last official art, from Brian Flores on Fiverr, is a vampire castle from our supernatural far-future setting, The City. We particularly like how the castle contrasts with the rest of the buildings and the high-tech laser gates, turrets and security cameras. #ttrpg #RPG

Our next piece of art, by Chredryl on Fiverr, is the early sketch and final art for the cover of our free sci-fi adventure, Syndicate Sabotage. It shows Lobe Station, the main setting of the adventure, and the stealth ship the players take to get there. #ttrpg #RPG

More commissioned art from Brian Flores on Fiverr, this piece is from Barbarus, our fantasy setting and shows a Great Beast advancing on a Barbarian town. We love the sense of scale and the designs of the creature and the town, and it's one of our favourite pieces.

Mathias Ltb on Fiverr did our next piece of art, showing a battle between two ships belonging to two of the main playable factions in our sci-fi setting, Rifts and Rivets. We really like how you can tell how different the factions are just by looking at their ships! #ttrpg #rpg
