sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 03/01/2025I have not but that looks sick! Definitely the kind of thing I would be into. Have you played it? 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 26/12/2024God I fucking love Off this is so exciting 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Have you read King City? My favorite of his 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 23/12/2024I think most if not all personality typing is bullshit, except for the Enneagram which is 100% true 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 23/12/2024I just rolled mine 100 times to make sure each result is roughly as likely as the others but that sounds much easier 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Sweet and salty-savory is a classic flavor pairing; no reason pineapple on pizza should be controversial 010
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 22/12/2024I've run a handful of modules in the past but mostly prepare my own stuff. Almost exclusively run BX with some house rules but I play in an OD&D open table from time to time. 010
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Big fan of The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath and Nyarlathotep 010
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 17/12/2024I vary between meathead warriors and maniacal spell casters. Either way though I'm usually the person messing around with stuff to see what happens. 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 15/12/2024Ah well that sucks. I was going back and forth between playing it straight for the true ~Xyntilan experience~ or hacking it apart and using the best ideas for another dungeon so now definitely leaning toward the latter. 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 14/12/2024How are you liking it? I'm planning to run Xyntillan for an open table sometime in the new year 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 13/12/2024@shirleyishmael.bsky.social I need you to tell me your favorite snack to eat while gaming [urgent] 210
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 13/12/2024@coral-wave.bsky.social What's a D&D adventure you've always wanted to run but haven't yet? 111
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 13/12/2024@chainzjade.bsky.social What's the last song you listened to that blew you away with how good it was? 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 13/12/2024@sector14.bsky.social aside from the ones you've been posting do you have a favorite non-D&D book to harvest ideas from? 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 13/12/2024@robroys.bsky.social What's your favorite thing about Alaska? 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Probably The Maze of Nuromen. Tight, no BS adventure. Not sure it can get done in one session but great for new GMs and players alike. Could use some more flavor but imo that's an asset: it encourages new GMs to add their own stylistic elements and dress the module up as they see fit 110
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Brooooo I was going back and forth between El Topo and No Country. Terrific, terrifying movie. I'm due for a re-watch. Banger list btw you and I have similar taste 110
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024This might be a little old school but after character creation I usually just start the players right outside a dungeon and tell them their goal is to get as much treasure as they can and make it out alive. That's usually good enough. 110
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024It's not! But I do love Chainsaw Man. Handle is a reference to Swords and Deviltry, the first volume of the Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser series 110
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Great question 1. No Country for Old Men 2. Scanners/Videodrome double feature (cheating ik) 3. Mulholland Drive 4. Rushmore 5. Akira if I'm being honest but mostly as a stand-in for '80s sci-fi horror OVAs. Now gimme yours 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 09/12/2024It's as much a research project as it is a novel but it's well worth the effort imo. Gotta hand it to the mfa lit bros on this one 000
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 08/12/2024 Those who don't participate may find the narrative "unfinished" or "confused," unaware that they were given all the hints necessary to complete the work themselves. 110
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Instead of being relegated to the role of audience, the reader/viewer is instead challenged to integrate the clues themselves and fill in the missing pieces to see the story through to its resolution. 100
sword-devil.bsky.social @sword-devil.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Pale Fire, Mulholland Drive, and Infinite Jest all belong to a genre of fiction that depicts narrative as a puzzle. Each work is comprised of clues to a larger whole that exists beyond the immediate purview of the text. 100
