Dark Gatekeeper Gaming

What books does DGG have available? (thread) First is our ongoing Dark Poetry series, "An Exaltation of Shadows". Mature Audiences, heavy subject matter. Short stories from multiple poets, combined with fantasy shorts about the Gemstone Knights and their journey across stars.

Stupid #ttrpg item/ real world invention idea: A jockstrap/bra covered in a layer of ignition cloth. Highly impractical but looks cool so...

@DinasaurusD What about okie-doki?

People that say “Okydoky” instead of “Okidoki” are actually insane. And no I will not be discussing “okie-dokie”

@trolllordgames Competitively.

We all know there's no WRONG way to play TTRPGs. That being said... what's the wrong way to play ttrpgs? #playcnc #ttrpg #ttrpgcommunity

@drevrpg Tunic of Companion Concealment The tunic acts as an entrance to a Leomund's Hut, but designed specifically for the companion it's bound to. Gives a place to hide, rest, be carried when injured, etc. Wearer releases the animal with the command phrase, "I Choose You!"

How would you use this in your game? #ttrpg #ttrpgprompt

@AlexaSommers Are they counting gestation as part of the age? Or a reference to soul age? Confused Subjective with Objective?

@AgathaChocolats Minivan Betatest: Needs more van.

@mad_harlot I think his name was Jeff. Oh you meant...

Tell me the last “ new” thing you ate ?

@DirtyDiceGoblin Good morning. Ironically in the system I'm running, rolling only 1s would mean less enemies for the party to fight. Lol

Say hi or you’ll only roll 1s

@aliyawill @finalfantasyvii Not the DLC we'll get, but the one we deserve.

@BrynDonovan A lot of people will say, "It's not the destination but the journey." And that's totally valid. My issue is with the predictability of both. If the journey and destination are the same each time, then how is it a new story? I don't want Stouffer's mashed potatoes. I want yours.

@BenZeisloft We never said to kill a baby.

Bad ttrpg magic item ideas: 1) Good Boy Shield - A person who liked pain in a previous life reincarnates as an intelligent shield. 2) Viridian Lamp Blade - a mighty sword but damage is halved against yellow targets. 3) Third Shift Glasses - Grants Dayvision 60 ft.

@RealGreyMage There are roughly a marioplex options for species in any game. But if using them doesn't help tell an interesting story or give a fun RP experience, then there's not much point in it being an option. Just cause I can play a sentient bong doesn't mean I should.

@RealGreyMage The only ones I don't like are ones that are just made with no rhyme or reason and get no support. Bladeling is a good example. Little if any lore, playing one becomes a logistics issue, and their presence doesn't do much for the setting's ecosystem.

Alright, here's a deep discussion... for those who don't like certain #ttrpg races (for whatever reason), why do you find it beneficial to hold that view? What's the value in your POV? Would you reccomend other people share it? #dnd #ttrpgcommunity

@atgeiger11 Rope or any type of material like that. Doable, but a pain.

What splits in two and is super hard to mend? I'm working on a novel and need some ideas.

Let’s have a show of hands, Did you know that my partner and I run a privately funded foster home and sanctuary for cats and kittens called @harlot_house

@Gingerblast 2) I built a utility mage for what was a dungeon crawl/combat heavy campaign. I was useless in combat, so no point in holding everyone else up. But in general, I'll give any campaign 3 sessions before I'll dip.

@Gingerblast There's only been 2 occasions where I dipped out of a campaign. 1) cause I felt uncomfortable with how the dm assigned characters. (Legend of Zelda harem fantasy thing that I did not agree to. And yes, I was Link.) Con't...

Just wondering, how long have you existed in an RPG campaign when you weren't having fun only because you had to much social anxiety or were too polite to leave?

@JessKHardy2000 See also: 1) How is participating in democratic process a sexual/romantic thing? 2) "God designed men to lead..." My boi, if men were designed for leadership, they'd be a lot better at it. 3) "...not women and harlots." So if a man is a harlot, does that override the "design"?

@JessKHardy2000 Hell, that sounds like a great name for a band or superhero team!
