This is, The Real Shit
A wolf ate the cursed object and painfully transfigured into the carving. Now floated a half-formed god, a flesh, feminine torso with no head or limbs. Even worse, decapitated heads and amputated limbs are scattered across Nullona. As the PCs traveled, they witnessed the godling stealing these lost appendages for its own. That one line of text, without guard rails, led to me creating the big bad that narratively tied together our campaign.

For the past few weeks I've been tinkering on a new thing. DEGADO SECTOR is a cold war space setting inspired by British sci-fi and spy fiction of the 1970s. Interstellar trade, colonial decline, and revolutionary intrigue in a nuclear-powered space age.

Looking through these documents I spotted their "Beginners Observation Guide" which has some wonderful illustrations on how to follow a suspect.
Old cartoony illustration of a street, a man in a top hat and moustache is looking out of a high window while two people stand in the street, one looking up at the man in the window.An illustrated guide on how to follow someone down a street. A man in a top hat, cane and cigar, "S" walks down the street. One person, A, walking ahead of him, crosses the street, while a second person, B, joins from the behind, but also crosses the street. A dog is also there.DONT BELITTLE THE PERSON YOU ARE FOLLOWING. IF HE DOES APPEAR SIMPLE, APPEARANCES ARE OFTEN DECEPTIVE.

I also asked players to choose from a handful of Glasgow based feeding grounds, each with a rating and custom rolls depending on your approach. This was my favourite bit. A simple roll, a little vignette, and the chance of chaos.

Exceptional success: your wealthy victim becomes besotted with you. Extra dot of resources.
Dramatic Failure: Security is tightened. -2 penalty to all rolls for two weeks.

For my first ever game I ran, Vampire the Requiem, I was worried about the complexity for people brand new to RPGs. So I wrote up bloodlines and disciplines as cards for players to choose from and reference in play. It seemed to work!

Can sincerely un-recommended MixamUK for your printing needs. First run was full of cropping errors outside the bleed and the reprints are all damaged along the spine. At least the customer service is pleasant but we'll see if the refund is forthcoming.

This from @thewyrdlands.bsky.social neatly summarises why I've moved to event resolution rolls over action resolution. thewyrd.blot.im/the-wyrd-sys...
Events are the building blocks of narrative (literally, narrative is pretty much defined by events). What this means is you have a series of objects (characters, things, details) and some actions then together they create an outcome that leads to some kind of change (or continuance) among those things.

Events bring together multiple characters, multiple features, they allow for dynamism and collaboration. Actions can quite limiting to resolve, they tend to include one character doing one thing to one other thing at a time. Once you add in anything like initiative action resolution has a weird impact on the nature of time in a world in which time becomes segmented and people exist in little pocket dimensions that act independently and then re-join together. Events are how we naturally divide time in narrative.

I don't really know how to do promo so look at these! If you like this kind of thing there's loads of it in Wraithlands.
Banner for the Wickmakers and Holediggers Society trade unionDirector Chairman Golverston
Laird of Veilmarnock. Relishes in the control this grants him over so many spirits. Thralls lift him from bed in the morning, dress and bathe him, bring his tea and papers, in fact any conceivable mundane task that could be delegated and Golverston has done so.
There is only one thing Golverston does himself - the Morning Liturgies. He trained as a church organist and believes in the power of ritual song to induce compliance. So every dawn he climbs atop a giant amalgam of spirits (a gift from Dryblane of Ortch) and plays the organ on its back.
His belief is well founded: all who hear his song have a single overriding thought: 'nothing can ever change'.Detail of a larger peat bog piece, showing Skelka straw witches and a Middensnail13.10 The Bastard Lair - In a concealed cave overlooking the loch, cowering amongst scraps of clothes, a warped bestial creature is kept in chains. Between patches of mottled wiry hair is white flesh, pocked and scarred, and a tattoo on its chest marks it as a mortal warrior trapped in monstrous transformation. Locals call it the Hills Bastard.
Ros, a tanner from Seilinish, stole the harness that would temper its transformations. She wishes to skin the creature to make a mighty suit of armour.
If let loose the Bastard is a flurry of indiscriminate rending claws. It can even wield weapons, though it has a habit of destroying them in the process.

WRAITHLANDS is an upcoming hex crawl across the isle of Nullona, where the Lairds of the Underkirk rule over the living and condemn all dead to an eternity of hard labour. 144 locations filled with statue cults, dismembered gods, hunt sabs, a giant dug, and the fracking of heaven with blood.
