A screenshot showing a messed up drawing of a white male with red eyes turning their head to the back seat of a cat with their mouth wide open and the text "R: 58/1: 6 STOP ASKING ME FOR SKILL CHECKS: Tell me what your character DOES, and I will ask (YOU) to roll a skill check IF a check needs to be made. The next guy who asks for a skill check to search a room or wipe their ass, I guarantee you will fail it, no matter what you roll."

If your world has magical creatures, what things might exist to help assist or protect them that woukd be different than what most folks would consider

Be it blood banks for vampires to shop at, support groups for werewolves etc.

When designing a pantheon for your ttrpg world what aspects are you looking to have?

Is it coverage of various aspects (law, chaos, life etc.) Or your looking to directly attach them to regions and ways of worship?

Or perhaps your world is devoid of it?

Today's ttrpg question, as a gm is there a lesson/message you tried to convey in a game that was Important to you?

For the players was there ever a game that you participated in that you felt taught you something either about yourself or about the world?

Gms and players alike, When it comes to making/seeing an npc that you absolutely despise what characteristics do you think of?

For me the absolute most infuriating thing is incompetence. I cannot stand those characters that cannot do anything right.

Question for the gms & worldbuilders

What does the education system look like in your world? Is is an organized system with things like grades (1st, 2nd, freshmen, senior) or is it a looser trade school style or perhaps more akin to apprenticeship?

Fellow gms and players, what are your thoughts on puzzles/scenarios where the gm has no idea what the solution or ending might be?

There are of course things that are nebulous (social engagements as an example) but when it comes to things like traps, riddles or puzzles?

When we think house rules we tend to think of things that apply directly to the rules of the game we are playing. But what are some rules you have about playing at your house/with folks?

Is there a story behind it?

For example I have one that players have to use a dice tray

If your world has magic, Has medicine been affected by it for better or worse?

Has the action of magical healing held back scientific advancements in medicines, surgery and anatomy or perhaps it has done the opposite and allowed for better growth

This is another one for the gms and worldbuilders

When designing a key location for your game/story what are the MOST Important structures/places that you feel must be there to be "Complete"

Might this shift due to the type of fantasy/tone of the game or story your running?

He says and yellow text appears to say "it belongs in a museum!"

A question for the gms and writers out there!

How might the concept of a museum shift or differ for those races/species with exceptionally short or long life spans? What might they prioritize differently and how might this shape their cultures understanding?

If they were to make a movie about your characters life story to this point what would be the big plot points and who would play them?

Would it be classed as a comedy, action, horror or a drama?
