Reposted by SparkyAlder (one of them) @alder--s.bsky.social · 07/10/2026In September, I took part in a review jam of sorts, for which I wrote about @mirror-lock.bsky.social 's Galatea.

Reposted by Sparkylumpley @lumpley.bsky.social · 30/09/2026PbtA fans, here's my challenge to you. For the next 12 months, when somebody asks how PbtA works, tell them that normally a 10+ is a critical hit, a 7-9 is a hit, and a 6- is a compromise, but that unusually challenging or dangerous situations can bump itdown. 526141
