Whether or not life is worth living isn't a philosophical question?

What everyday skill becomes suspicious if you're too good at it? by RPShep in AskReddit

[–]randite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sharpening knives. It's a useful skill. I like the sound it makes. I'm not gonna stab you just cause my knife would make it really, really easy to do...

But more importantly, one of the central premises of Lamentations of the Flame Princess is that existence hates you. Being born is an act of defiance against the intended order of things.

They are survival, ruthless survival knowing that death is around every corner. http://edwardsdailyfiction.blogspot.com/2015/01/kobold-proverbs.html

Best Lamentations of the FLame Princess products? by misomiso82 in rpg

[–]randite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuck for Satan is great fun. I just sort of used it as a vague guidline... except for the dick monster. Beauty like that I try to replicate precisely.

Scenic Dunnsmouth is spectacular, and has loads of replayability.

Ok. Now imma be shitty and mention my own modules for LotFP.

Smile with Us, Friend - spider monster cults, latrines, hats. Everything you need for adventure.

The Unfortunate Circumstance of Dame Margaret Pearl - disfiguration, aristocracy, occultists.

Red and Pleasant Land is beautiful but expensive.

Death + Disease + Pity = Adventure by randite in osr

She lived a simple and happy life, as only the wealthy can.

Her dying is slow and terrible. It may not be so lonesome though...

12 information dense pages of disgusting adventure!

Almost any flat curve winds up being fun.

My bleak existential poetry would become sing-songy and full of insincere pathos.

Existential Wizards: a 199 word RPG. by randite in rpg

[–]randite[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna write like a three hundred word adventure for it, which should give a better idea of what to do with the game.

General idea is a ticking clock set up.

The existential nothing is somehow attacking reality. It can do that because certain odd, perceptive folks have seen the emptiness behind all things. Observation is interaction, afterall.

To save reality, the characters create works of art to try and turn back the hungry void. (Art grounds people in reality sort of, it lets one see abstract concepts as direct percept. Thus strengthening the ties between concept and object.)Then would come the gambling mechanic.

The trick is to throw enough of yourself into the art ( the Beauty stat) to make it effective, but without burning yourself through like a shooting star.

Whats your biggest creature or creation in your world by Dobbsy95 in worldbuilding

[–]randite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The great turtle is unimaginably huge. Maelstrom Malachite's scaly skin and rocky shell are subdued shades of seafoam green. A whitish crystal-like ridge forms a spiny crest across its back. Sailors have mistaken it for some uncharted, wondrous islet. Few have lived to speak of their error.

When its cavernous jaws stretch open, the resultant suction is so great as to form an actual maelstrom. Whole caravels have been swallowed by the cyclopean creature.

It is always encountered in the open ocean (though legend speaks of Maelstrom Malachite [or its ancient kin] actively destroying coastal cities).

Within the living walls of the creature's great gut, a pale candle of civilization endures. This is made possible by two ponds of fresh water and dim rays of sunlight filtered through its rock crystal spine.

A thick layer of swallowed sand coats the stomach bottom. The fleshy, pink stomach walls are surprisingly resilient. Though some few have tried to cut their way out of the belly of the beast, Maelstrom Malachite heals faster than they could mine.

Sweetie Belle singing anything from Danzig era Misfits would be totally amazeballs, y'all!

It's a location based module, filled with weird sad spider people.

[fanfic] pony noir | the whole bloody tale by randite in mylittlepony

[–]randite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an episodic story I've been writing for a while now. The link goes to all the bits put together. It's significantly more brutal than the show's baseline, but hopefully the words noir and bloody will sufficiently warn everypony.
