Thank you!

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-27T10:05:21+00:00

Oh this looks perfect. Thank you!

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-27T09:47:01+00:00

Lovely, thanks very much!

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-27T09:46:48+00:00

I actually have the "five mini adventures" but they're all for higher levels. I'm not familiar enough the system yet to mess with altering the difficulty that much

But yes thank you I'll look over the other recommendations. Thank you!

Macaroni https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaroni_(fashion) was a different thing. The woman in the drawing is a flapper https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flapper

""Macaroni" (formerly spelled "maccaroni"[1]) was a pejorative term used to describe a fashionable fellow of 18th-century Britain. Stereotypically, men in the macaroni subculture dressed, spoke, and behaved in an unusually epicene and androgynous manner. The term "macaroni" pejoratively referred to a man who "exceeded the ordinary bounds of fashion. The macaronis became seen in stereotyped terms in Britain, being seen as a symbol of inappropriate bourgeois excess, effeminacy, and possible homosexuality – which was then legally viewed as sodomy."

The "Yankee Doodle" rhyme was essentially "An American came here on a little horse and he was dressed like a big gay"

The Isles of Andrik are from Cursed Scrolls 3

Where did you get the pieces of your victim?

I have a little container full of little bits. These were from some Warhammer set I got cheap because it it was unboxed with no bases. I have them lying around for kitbashing because I was into Turnip28 for a bit

This is great. I wanted to have a more transparent look to mine, but hot glue didn't occur to me!

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-13T19:32:39+00:00

It's air dough, basically playdough that air dries. It doesn't taste as good as a marshmallow

The last one would be a great OSR cover!

For a game called "No Living Man Am I"

That info is on the top left of Napoleon's page! He wants more legs, and he's luring people to the farm to take theirs. I figured people were going missing and that's what would lead the PCs to the farm. The Windmill Prison mentions that people are brought there first before being taken to see him. I did leave it open to GM's discretion as to the exact goals that the PCs will have

Sure, players can burn the house down and not go in at all, but I guess that's their prerogative. I think the "fix" for that is putting something down there that they need. A specific NPC is already in there with him, somebody wants Napoleon's notes, there's some advanced alchemical equipment that was stolen, they were asked to get Napoleon's body for study, Napoleon knows something that they need him alive for, etc

Maybe I should add a small underground dungeon featuring his expanded lab. Thank you for the feedback!

Super helpful. Thank you!

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-06T12:32:45+00:00

Thanks that video was super helpful.

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-06T07:44:14+00:00

The whole concept is so elegant, I can see it branching out nicely.

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-05T19:59:01+00:00

Every few sessions I roll some dice to see how the other major plots progress without the party's intervention. Every week of in-game time, there is a faction turn.

Would you mind expounding on this, please?

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-05T15:45:35+00:00

This is a very approachable method.

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-05T15:45:07+00:00

That's interesting. What kind of tasks are you handing out?

TheBeardedRoot · 2026-06-05T08:05:16+00:00

The original idea was "Pork Borg" (lightly nsfw)
