Last weekend I played a couple of sessions of Living Arcanis #TTRPG β€” a game with a heavy dose of Roman flavour β€” at #Contingency2025

On Thursday I was working on some code with sample data (entered by someone else) made up of Roman names.

That night I saw Pirates of Penzance at the London Coliseum.

At that point I gave in and finally settled down to watch HBO’s Rome.

Now I have a note pad with the outline of an scenario for Acanis written out. Ooops.

Time to get to wrok revising "Tithe Barn", the #DeadOfNightRPG scenario I ran at #Contingency2025
Also time to start work on "Trilogy", a new scenario set in three different decades.
Also a revised version of #ForetoldInItsShadow with new second act prompts.
Busy day ahead! πŸ˜† #ttrpg
I'm working on my #DeadOfNightRPG scenario, "Tithe Barn", which got it's first outing at #Contingency2025. I'm unlocking the potential by writing up the six NPCs as alternative PCs and formalising all the nonsense I came up with on the spur of the moment when I ran it. #ttrpg
A detailed report of my time at #Contingency2025 is now up on my very neglected blog! https://groundhoggth.blogspot.com/2025/02/contingency-2025.html
