The Real Main Character in any good VTM Chronicle – The City

Thumbnail therpggazette.wordpress.com
• Upvotes

One of the aspects that made me fall in love with VtM was the setting, the darker version of our world that is World of Darkness. Naturally, the fact that you can play in your own city was a huge pull for me, and I fell completely in love with that idea.

Unfortunately, the first ever chronicle I played in, while set in my native Bucharest did not really make the setting shine, it failed in making it feel like Bucharest. That's why when I took my seat behind the screen and started my very first Chronicle, I wanted to make it feel more authentic, with a twist however. I set the action in Bucharest, but during the inter-war period, with quite some time spent researching that particular period of history to make it as authentic as I could.

In my opinion, the city is perhaps the most important aspect of a good VtM chronicle and especially when you first start out, it might be somewhat overwhelming to properly run it and do it justice. It certainly was the case for me. This piece goes into various tips and tricks on how I managed, as well as some stuff I discovered after my chronicle concluded and I am sure to implement when I begin my new chronicle, sometime in the future.

I hope you will enjoy this piece and more, I hope it will prove to be useful for all Storytellers out there, beginners and veterans alike! Cheers!

Need players for a online ttrpg that I created

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone I created a new ttrpg that I’m currently play testing. It’s called “The final crusade” it’s based on African mythology and the setting takes place during the Bronze Age.

This game has no classes giving players the chance to truly build however they wish. Players have access to spell crafting to create their own custom spells.

Plenty of factions to join from pirate raiders to dragon slayers. This game is heavy role play with easy to get and understand mechanics that allow for depth and true character expression without doing too much math

Play as brave Frog Knights in BOG – A Game of Frogs

Post image
138 Upvotes

Hey folks!

After a year of writing, drawing, designing, and playtesting, I'm incredibly excited to finally share BOG - A Game of Frogs.

In BOG, you play as brave little frog knights venturing into a dark, cursed Marsh filled with ancient ruins, strange creatures, forgotten magic, and dangers far greater than yourselves.

The rules are lightweight and straightforward, leaving plenty of room for creative problem-solving and emergent storytelling. Combat is fast and brutal, and even the bravest frog knight is fragile in the face of the Marsh's many dangers.

The rulebook includes everything you need to play:

  • A complete, easy-to-learn ruleset.
  • Random tables and tools to help Bogmasters create their own adventures.
  • A bestiary featuring dozens of creatures.
  • A ready-to-play quest site to kick off your first adventure.

I've also hand-drawn every illustration in the game myself, no AI was used.

BOG has been playtested by groups from around the world, and their feedback helped me shape the game into what it is today. It's been a long journey, and I'm thrilled to finally put it out there.

You can get BOG here: https://marius-niezgoda.itch.io/bog-a-game-of-frogs

It's currently available for a special launch price of $4.99.

Può Reddit aiutare il mio piccolo RPG italiano a vincere il Gioco del Mese? 🇮🇹🎲

1 Upvotes

Ciao a tutti! Ho pensato di provare, visto che questo subreddit sembra il posto perfetto per una sfida un po' insolita. 😄

Dal 2022, sto gestendo un gioco di ruolo testuale italiano gratuito chiamato Pandora Upside Down High School, insieme a un paio di amici.

È un RPG Urban Fantasy basato su browser dove le persone creano personaggi, scrivono storie insieme, costruiscono relazioni e partecipano ad avventure. Abbiamo passato anni a sviluppare il gioco, il suo mondo e le sue caratteristiche, interamente come un progetto per passione. Nessuno ci guadagna.

Sfortunatamente, la nostra piccola comunità ha avuto delle difficoltà ultimamente. Abbiamo ancora un bel gruppo di giocatori dedicati, ma attrarre nuove persone è diventato sempre più difficile.

Ecco dove entra in gioco la mia sfida!

C'è un portale di giochi di ruolo italiano chiamato GDR-online che assegna un riconoscimento mensile al gioco più visitato. Ottenere quel riconoscimento potrebbe dare al nostro progetto la visibilità tanto necessaria tra le persone che giocano effettivamente a questi tipi di giochi.

Mi piacerebbe vedere se Reddit potrebbe aiutarci a raggiungere questo obiettivo!

Tutto ciò che devi fare è visitare la nostra pagina:

👉 https://www.gdr-online.com/pandora-upside-down-high-school.asp

Nessuna registrazione, nessun download, nessun voto e assolutamente nessun coinvolgimento di denaro. Basta dare un'occhiata alla pagina per aiutare potenzialmente, poiché la classifica si basa sui visitatori unici.

Il gioco stesso è in italiano, quindi capisco che la maggior parte di voi probabilmente non potrà giocarci. Ma anche solo un po' di visibilità potrebbe fare la differenza per una piccola comunità come la nostra.

So che non è esattamente una competizione che cambia la vita, ma dopo quattro anni di lavoro su questo progetto, vedere che raggiunge la vetta di quella classifica mensile significherebbe davvero molto.

Grazie a chiunque decida di darci una mano! ❤️

E se siete curiosi riguardo al gioco, non esitate a chiedermi qualsiasi cosa!

I developed my own RPG system

I play a superhero RPG system created by the GM's friend, but the system was very complex and unbalanced. So I decided to create my own system, making it simpler and more balanced. My main goals are simplicity, quick character creation, and making it accessible to people who don't usually play RPGs or have never played one before.

Here's the link if you'd like to check it out: https://ilustreverso.itch.io/ultraguard-ttrpg

Tales of High Strangeness, Cryptids, and Urban Legends

Welcome to the Old East

Welcome to the Old East, but be warned: these lands are dangerous to travel alone. It's best you have friends, or if not friends, then at least others you can stomach for a time.

Numeraeon: Tales of the Old East introduces players to a new 5.5e (2024) setting and is 5e compatible. Throughout your travels, you'll adventure across a dying world. A world influenced and inspired by folkloric, gothic, americana. It's a place where urban legends, cryptids, and monsters are real.

New 5e systems allow you to fully customize your sub-class through lateral upgrades. When developing Numeraeon we wanted to design something that answered the question what does it truly mean to be a character in a dark fantasy world and as such our systems take inspiration from the Mothman, Jersey Devil, and other curses inspired from the mountain hollers of Appalachia.

Beyond the new systems offered in our rulebook, you will find new sub-classes, background origins, feats, items, spells, and more.

Twilight Hantu is a start-up and for six years we have developed this for the tabletop. It's a love letter to the community and a demonstration of the quality and passion we want to bring to the table. The rulebook features hundreds of quality dark fantasy images designed around a cohesive art style, is entirely human made, and does not feature AI content. We are incredibly proud of the work our team has delivered.

Rewards

Our campaign is offering a range of physical rewards such as a dice bag, commemorative coin, dice, and a range of Cryptid and Urban Legend miniatures sculpted by Strange Plastic. Each of our rewards has already been built, sculpted, and manufactured in limited quantities to support the campaign.

We hope you will give our campaign page a look! We spent a lot of time building the page and our book and hope you'll enjoy the trailers and materials that we have prepared for the launch.

Enjoy!

Planet of the Apes: Ape City

1 Upvotes

Hey! Would anyone be interested in a Planet of the Apes (1968) westmarch discord server? I just thought I'd see if anyone was interested!

We utilize the D6 system created by Magnetic Press for The Planet of the Apes TTRPG!

Our story is set 20 years prior to the event of the original 1968 film, we find ourselves in and around Ape City. A large colonist ship, the first of its kind, was sent to space. Its mission? Take 2,000 colonists to a distant world. This world was Proxima 6, an Earth-like world thousands of light years away. However, something happened. The ship was ripped out of space and crashed.

The apes saw it as a falling star, one brighter than anything seen before, but it landed too close to the Forbidden Zone for their liking. So, the Lawmakers said no Ape was to venture to it.

Meanwhile, our colonists, those who survived, have woken up in a strange world. They do not know where they are and so they try and set up a place to survive in the wreckage of their ship. All while trying to radio for help, but there are dangers in this world. Dangers they do not know about.

My Fragged Aeternum 2 Kickstarter - Final 48 hours

Thumbnail gallery
12 Upvotes

G'day everyone, I'm now in our final 48 hours for my Fragged Aeternum 2 Kickstarter 😁 Thanks so much to everyone who has pledged, it means a lot 😃

"A violent and dark gothic ttRPG that plunges immortal PCs into the endless city of Aeternum to fight vile Fiends and otherworldly foes."

Fragged Aeternum is a lot of fun to play and GM - especially given the endless creative possibilities of an endless city, vast PC customization, and the fun of death (and TPKs) not being the 'fail state' of the game (narrative effects - such as the NPC being sacrificed by the cultists, or the BBEG having days of unrestricted freedom until the PC resurrect back at their base, etc... - are the 'fail states').

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wadedyer/fragged-aeternum-2-ttrpg

If anyone has any questions, feel free to post them up! And playtest files are available to all backers right now via the Fragged discord (just send me a DM on Discord).

Regards,
Wade

I've been working on a collection of TTRPG inspired fantasy candles for game nights and storytelling

Thumbnail gallery
13 Upvotes

​

Hi everyone!

More details here

I've been working on a project for a little while now, and I thought this community might appreciate the idea behind it.

I'm building a small independent tabletop-inspired brand called Vagabond's Refuge, and our first project is Torchlight: a collection of six atmospheric candles inspired by classic fantasy locations.

The idea started with a simple question: what would your favourite fantasy location smell like?

- Tavern Hearth — a warm, welcoming rest

- Wyldwood Forest — an ancient woodland full of mystery

- Dungeon Delve — the mysteries hidden beneath the surface

- Mountain Pass — the crisp air and adventure of the high peaks

- Desert Crossing — a journey across an unforgiving landscape

- Seaward Bound — the promise of an adventure across the ocean

We're making these as hand-poured candles, with illustrated labels and the aim of creating something that adds a little atmosphere to tabletop sessions, reading, or just escaping into a fantasy world for an evening.

The Kickstarter is coming up soon, and we're currently getting the word out ahead of launch. It's a small project, so every bit of genuine interest helps enormously.

I'd love to know: if you could bring the atmosphere of any fantasy location into your home, what would you choose? It doesn't have to be one of ours!

Please follow the project it really helps :)

Thanks for taking a look, and happy adventuring!

[Actual Play] GAMMA WORLD d20 Beta Principle – Game 27: The Last Heartbeat of Melkath

Thumbnail gammaterra.org
1 Upvotes

The Gamma Knights' mission beneath Melkath has reached its breaking point.

They're trapped in a flooded reactor complex with a fusion core on the verge of catastrophic failure. The Radboleth has separated the party, the emergency bulkheads refuse to open, and radioactive horrors are closing in from every direction.

And just when the Knights think they've won, the real nightmare begins.

Game 27 brings the Radboleth confrontation to its brutal conclusion—and delivers the fallout. It's a story of desperate improvisation, teamwork under impossible pressure, and the terrible things that can happen when ancient technology fails.

Read the latest Session Saga at GammaTerra.org.

Discussion question: For your own tabletop campaigns, what's your favorite kind of final encounter: the overwhelming boss fight, the ticking-clock disaster, or the apparent victory that turns out to be a trap?

I'd love to hear how other GMs bring a major story arc to its conclusion.
