Normally I try to keep artifacts 100 years or older, but Herman is a fellow Marylander and I have to rep him

Tales From the Tables ep. 42: Veil of Memories

Angela catches a glimpse beyond the veil of memories while her fate hangs by a thread.

So sorry this episode was so late! Lots of work on brand new, detailed backgrounds, plus the annual summer visit with my elderly parents back across the ocean... ;_;

Anyway, hope it was worth the wait! Lots of answers! And perhaps even more new questions, as the plot thickens some more!

If you're curious about more of Angela's backstory, TheForeverDM has a neat video about it :)

She has to live with a smelly old dog.

I am looking for ways to improve my exploration gameplay in a Theater of the Mind type game where there is no map and no need for detailed environmental descriptions, if that makes sense; I don't want to have to keep track of corridors and turns, and that sort of thing.

Ideally I would like a system or ruleset that allows me to randomly generate interesting exploration gameplay without relying on having to map out everything. Preferably system agnostic so I can use it in various games.

Here's an example of the sort of thing I'm looking for, but would like to see alternatives that are a bit more in depth, or have more options:

Still so sad about this 😞

Ive been thinking about it fir a while, but i think i really want it. It feels strange still being so early on. Ive inly started hrt 8 months ago, but i really want it. And i want ffs. Its like the floodgates broke open and i want as much as i can get.

(Happiness to despair)

1. Dressing fem feels so good!
2. Everything that fits is in the wash.
3. Guess it's boymode today
4. I can't even just no

So I seem to have gone from "this plain T-shirt is secretly from the women's section, nobody will notice!" to "goddammit I'm dressing like a man I feel so ridiculous" without realizing. Um.

Happy ending, though: I forgot to unpack the skater skirt and stripy socks from my Trans Starter Pack™. Very un-stylish but who cares!

It’s like Overwatch, Dota 2, and Team Fortress 2 all baked into a pie.

3.5 was edition I played the most. It was a reason why I quit RPGs for nearly a decade because I hated it so much.

Every time I see another meme about how amazing 3.5 Tarrasque is, I remmember how amogn actual 3.5 players Tarrasque was the biggest joke. It was always brought up as definite proof designers have no idea how to make good monster. It was laughably easy to beat. A wizard could casually solo it, the same abilities people now miss in 3.5 amounted to ribbons. It was a laughingstock, forums had 100+ pages discussions how to fix it and general consensus was it';s beyond saving. It was first proof in 3.5 if you cannot use magic you're only good to roll over and die.

I honestly don't know if everyone claiming 3.5 Tarrasque is such a horrifying monster are trying to rewrite history or unintentionally proving what a broken, unplayable pile of garbage 3.5 was, if it's biggest punching bag is actually dangerous in a different, better designed game.
