It's great having you here! I'm Andrzej and it's my place for sharing the hobby of tabletop RPG games, mainly from the GM perspective. If you are new to them and think about starting as a Game Master, you'll find plenty of my first-hand learning experience and hopefully some useful tips here. And if you're interested in some inspirations or session reports for your games, there's that too.
May the everlasting Darkness doom me if I don’t try my best to make that change!
What change? And why swear such a terrible oath? Let me explain – and start just a step earlier.
I’ve always had that impression of Forbidden Lands reflecting the Wild West movies, especially the old ones like Dollars Trilogy with Clint Eastwood. And it never was stronger than when my group was gearing up for their final dungeon exploration. They searched for an outlawed ranger, Vike, to enlist him as additional support in upcoming fights. A gruff hunter banished from the village greatly resembled a gun-for-hire theme in Western films. Besides, as I’ll get to expand at the end, the latter turned out to be very rewarding and easy to work with as source material – including publishing my own modules as well.
So, that was one heck of a positive message, that last one, wasn’t it, huh? Well, I guess there’s certainly a reason why I put “Drama” in my blog’s title. But drastic times call for drastic measures – and I’m planning on some drastic changes to how I handle this site and my roleplay-gaming activities altogether. Just let me pick up that low note I ended up on last time.
I’m a neurodivergent person, and this divergence isn’t quite what I thought or suspected it to be. I’m re-learning many vital skills, such as self-regulation, executing tasks, and so on. It all comes down to running RPGs, you see, as I found out just a couple of days ago. It drives many, many things.
The story about Forbidden Lands’ gods and religions added a lot to the campaign’s ultimate chapter – thanks to the presentation I haven’t come by in any other RPG.
I wasn’t idle, let me assure you. I’m hard at work on my ttRPG projects. I only need to unstuck from writer’s block, which I’m doing right now, as I’m writing this post already.
