Super dramatic happening in our game of The Clay That Woke today. My minotaur character Jivon is in a new employment situation, now working as a midwife, after just having returned from the jungle. So, I'm at a remote rice farm helping a human wife who is in heavy labor in a tub of warm water for a water birth. An old philosopher minotaur is coaching her during her contractions while her human husband is...

TFW a smart minotaur player ushers an NPC with weird beliefs away from a situation so the GM won't put an extra Silence token in the Krater.

Sold three copies of The Clay That Woke this morning, which meant someone was talking about it somewhere on the internet. Usually it's in some Discord or Slack and I never see it. This time it had to be this on Tik Tok:

... play in a persistent world, and I think it does. But no one runs anything that way anymore.

What if there was a roleplaying game where the motivations of cultural antagonist NPCs were quid pro quo thinking and self-serving ideas about justice?

Trove of text messages makes it clear: Trump knew his Ukraine extortion was illegal

New dump of diplomatic documents suggest Trump understood he had to cover up Ukraine misdeeds — however poorly

. @[email protected] will have copies of The Clay That Woke at BigBadCon. I think if you pick it up and start reading it you'll want to own it.

I could have chosen to assign the outcome to Luca’s minotaur (and even without spending a Name token, because Luca’s minotaur is a PC). In this case, should we had applied the outcome “your caution, fear, inability, or self doubt brings an unfavorable outcome” (because Luca’s minotaur had the Life token) or the outcome “death” (because my minotaur didn’t have the Like token)?

28. This is purely hypothetical, instead, and it was a question from Simone.

Let’s assume the same situation as in question n° 26, but let’s say I didn’t have my Life token while Luca’s minotaur still had it, and I got the outcome: “If you had no Life token in your supply prior to the inflection, then death; otherwise your caution, fear, inability, or self doubt brings an unfavorable outcome.”
