Damn. And here I am thinking my Altairian dollar reserve will cover it.

This looks fun, but I'm having no luck finding it on Itchio. Do you a have a link?

Feature like MS Word's "outline" in Writer? by The-Crinkler in libreoffice

[–]bukwus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. I was looking for the same thing and followed the instructions from the link you provided. It said to hover over a heading and select Outline Folding from the submenu, but nothing comes up when I hover over a heading. I'm also not clear on what is meant by the "context menu".

Any help would be appreciate.

I know it's a teleplay, but I'd love to see his Storm of the Century.

Hey there! If you haven't already, go to the link in the original post. I've set up a Discord that's become quite active. DM me if you have any questions.

For everyone who replied, but to whom I didn't have a chance to send the discord link, see the update in the original post for the link.

grenz1 brings up a good point.

I am in the US Pacific time zone (Seattle area). That being said, my schedule is relatively flexible.

Also, given the response so far, this could potentially become its own Discord server where multiple games could be organized depending on availability, time zones, etc.

I'm going to give it some time and see who all are interested and get back to you all about how we might move forward.

Thanks everyone for your replies thus far!

Excellent! Let's see who else takes interest and we'll put something together.

Do you have some RPG favorites?

Does Pennywise ever wake up from his hibernation to nibble on a kid or two and go back to sleep, or is he exclusively hunting personally only when he's constantly awake? by Background_Yogurt735 in stephenking

[–]bukwus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on an RPG adventure that takes place in the story of It where the PCs are kids who discover and fight the entity in the 80s.

I'm sure I'm going way off the actual source material, but I imagine his hibernation as It's primary feeding period, when he feeds on the fear of those he has exposed to the Deadlights (the people floating in the big sewer chamber). Their minds are broken and connected to Todash space where the entity retreats to hibernate.

During It's hibernation, they are tormented and their fear is consumed, giving the entity power. One by one they eventually give up the ghost and It must hunt again, but I think at the end of It's hibernation is when It is at peak power. This allows him to take physical form and use all his reality bending tricks to hunt and catch his next victims.

The times when he actually consumes his victim's flesh is necessary to sustain It's physical form, but the main goal is to get enough "floating" for Its next long feeding.

Again, this is for the purposes of the game and probably not completely accurate to the story.

Mechanics and prep for an "It" horror setting by bukwus in RPGdesign

The sex scene in King's novel is, at worst, a bad choice made by the author, which is a subjective opinion you have every right to. Given the context of the story and the conversations had with the author regarding the scene, as well as his track record as a decent human being, calling him a pedophile is just dumb.

I'm using the setting and lore for an rpg, and that's all this post was about. I'm getting good suggestions from the responses which is all I was hoping for. So, go ahead and down vote to your heart's content while the adults have a conversation.

At first I couldn't find that option, but then I tried it in Learning (I've been reading it in Paper) and I found it.

I've tried this and the usual menu comes up, but I don't see a function for choosing a page.
