unironically, this has become my favorite approach to character background over the years. Build out what the character can do, first, maybe pick a theme too. But create the character you want to play when you're at the table. The first few encounters are a great forge to make a character from, and then you can extrapolate and improvise from there when necessary.

Fucking love that my group is basically all the second guy. We've all taken the GM spot at one point.

human interaction, mostly. I get a lot of my new music from a guy who scours bandcamp for stuff he likes as a hobby.

no, i mean more empowered to interact with the game world. They have more agency in more arenas of play. You can play a goober of any class and have fun, i agree, but a goober who picks a "better" class will be able to create more comedies of errors beyond "Player fails to hit thing with a big stick".

That's actually my biggest criticism of D&D. Bards are better choices than rogues or fighters or wizards. Same goes with clerics or druids. sprinkle on a bit of paladin, a couple feats, and some magic gauntlets, and they can invalidate whole swathes of staple fantasy archetypes entirely.

Pancake w/ black coffee's honestly been tiding me over in the mornings for the past couple years. i'll usually rotate a meal out of my diet when I think i've perfected the cooking process for it or i just get tired of the taste, but that one just hasnt lost its appeal for me.

ehh fuck it, im gonna say its space funeral. It's a bunch of music lifted from the 70's BBC sound archives. Its clearly not the most expensive or masterfully produced soundtrack, but that's nowhere near the point. Its the dichotomy between the ugly visuals of scum vullage and the melancholic first track that persuaded me to stick around, and then it went in all sorts of different directions over the course of an hour long game.

that's super, dracula.
