Hey @oculusimperia.bsky.social @arbitorian.bsky.social I know it’s a little cheeky, but I’m trying to get a game of Rogue Trader rolling and I’m having trouble getting the word out to 40K fans. Any chance of a share?

Hey there @startplaying.bsky.social I’m trying to get my first game rolling and a repost would definitely help with that. Thanks.

Hey there, @drruler.bsky.social and @onekuosora.bsky.social It feels cheeky to ask but this feels like something your audience might be interested in. Any chance of a repost?

Hey @linkara.bsky.social I have no doubt you have more important things to share but if you wouldn’t mind I’d appreciate it.

So I should mention that I’m trying my hand at ‘pro’ game mastering. It won’t be expensive, $10 a session, but I wanted to go back to my old love the #warhammer40k #TTRPG #RogueTrader Details in the link, and feel free to share it around. startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

This will hopefully amuse @radiodeadair.com and @taradeenihan.bsky.social My wife runs a TTRPG at some cons, ‘One Honk Before Midnight’. All the players play geese, and in the scenario she wrote the objective is to burn down a certain straw goat without being caught… It tends to get a little silly.

In my experience there are three kinds of fantasy magic novels:

"There are three kinds of magic," said Wizzler, handing us each a balloon. "You can control tigers, you can shoot tornadoes from your fingers, or you can fly by holding your breath. The color of confetti inside your balloon will reveal which kind of power you have."
I felt the panic rising in me. What if my confetti turned yellow, indicating that I was a Tiger-Talker? My family, a long line of proud Tornado-Fingers, would disown me. Could I ever return home, bearing such shame?
I tried to calm myself as I readied the ceremonial safety pin. Green, I thought, willing my hopes into reality. Please be green.
I popped the balloon, involuntarily shutting my eyes. When I opened them, would I see the green I hoped for? The yellow I feared? What if, gods forbid, the confetti were blue?
I opened my eyes, seeing shock on the faces of my classmates. Wizzler himself stared at me, wide-eye. Looking down, I saw myself covered in confetti... purple confetti.

“I don’t understand,” I growled, my body trembling with pain. “I combined eighty percent Earth-elemental mana with twenty percent Fire-elemental mana (Type B), focused through a twenty-four-sided icositetragon made of yellow topaz. This, in conjunction with my blood type, star sign, sense of humor, and nickname, should have produced a blazing column of lightning to vaporize my enemies. Instead, it made a big bubble that smells like fresh laundry. Why?”
Skullgrumbler began to laugh. “You fool! You don’t even realize…” he squealed. “You’re facing east!”

“It’s whatever you want,” explained Magemaster Grampledog. “Magic is just whatever you want.”
I knew he was speaking in riddles, but I couldn’t grasp his hidden meaning. “So the rules are…”
Grampledog lit a sliver of smokereed. “No rules. You say some words and you wave a stick and whatever you want just happens. You don’t even need the stick.”
His wisdom still eluded me. I stared into his face, trying to decipher what he was really saying.
“No, listen.” Grampledog snapped his fingers and his desk turned into a pile of chicken nuggets. “I didn’t even know that would happen.” His hat then came alive and began to yodel.
“It’s pandemonium,” he explained. “It’s complete nonsense.”

When humans draw anthro art of dogs, they keep the fur but have them stand upright, give them two mammaries that are engorged & widen the eyes so you see the white. So if dogs drew fanart of us, we'd be naked on all fours with or without digitigrade legs, no breasts, 8-10 nips & eyes with no white
