Hachi at Shibuya Station. Hachi was a loyal companion. Everyday day he ran to Shibuya station to await his master and friend, Professor Uneo. One day Uneo met an I'll fate and did not come back. Still, every day Hachi waited. Now, even after death, Hachi still waits.

It's worth mention that in the years after Uneo's passing. Hachi became a welcome sight at Shibuya, who's residents would bring him food and play with him. He became a community mascot and an undying symbol of loyalty.

Just reminding you that Tom Morello did this.

Hey #ttrpg and #rpg people: I realized that if I left Twitter, I'd not really be able to communicate with anyone. What micro-blogging sites do you use? I don't (and won't) do FB or Discord but am looking for other ways to share information. RTs appreciated. ❤️

Do you think it is possable to have a player play a character whose charisma, intelligence or wisdom is higher or lower than what the player possesses.

How do you deal with a player who intentionally has a low intelligence score but solvs all the riddles, puzzles and makes all the plans?

1 panel comic. Title: "When the players sense danger at the last minute". Image of a giant in a dungeon, standing poised with a bat next to a small door. The small door has a speech bubble come out of it: "Guys, I think there is something dangerous on the other side of this door...". The giant looks worried, sweating, whispering to themself "oh no, they know".

In my #dnd social skills group, I've been exploring the concept of love languages, and how they differ. The most drastic case is 'the stabber,' an entity who shows affection through stabbing, and the players have been teaching him how to communicate in safer ways. It's great.

"In any story where you go to another world and especially a shared setting like the world of Dungeons & Dragons, there is a power—a really wonderful resonance—when you meet things you're familiar with, and so what I like to do is mix in the unfamiliar with the familiar." #DnD

I stopped using experience points in my #dnd5e game more than a year ago and have never looked back. Instead I use the milestone system. It’s better because it discourages the #murderhobo play style. PCs don’t have to kill everything they meet.

#ttrpg friends, let's talk environments. What is your favorite biome to adventure in and what is your favorite environmental feature to see? Love my some Taigas for some reason. Boreal forests just feel so unwelcoming and harsh. My fave feature has to be big ass bridges.

Roots as a combat-grid game, yes. But also its roots in the Western concept of monolithic truth. The idea that there is one absolute truth (righteousness) and everything else is outside that truth (evil). In this paradigm there will and must always be beings who simply are evil

Removing the alignment system from #dnd helps, but it needs to be replaced. Functionality, it was there to help with quick character creation (i.e. I'm a CG rogue). Now we have backgrounds which help, but don't entirely fill the gap bc they don't describe PC personality.

Fortunately, personality traits and ideals in #dnd5e really *do* fill the functionality gap of alignment, and they fill it better than alignment ever did. These tools help players create defined characters and make them interesting. They are entry points to play wo extra baggage
