Going to try a thing: white guys, please boost!!

Comment here if you're: queer and/or BIPOC and you are interested in talking about #TTRPGs #GameDesign #LARP or #games #art so we can create some discoverability for marginalized folks trying to find community with each other

I'll start! I'm a queer trans nb person who designs and publishes tabletop games and LARPs about gender and queerness. My jam lately has been happy games about queer people finding love and community

#introduction #lgbtq

@wundergeek hi!
I'm Winifred! Transbian goofball who likes #TTRPGs, #boardgames and am an appreciator of art in general. This is a new-ish profile so I'm still getting everything fully set up.
@wundergeek Hi! I'm Jess, a queer game designer. I mainly work in TTRPGs but I would love to follow more people who do LARPs.

@wundergeek hello, I’m a non conforming Bi white dude, I’m not normally a big fan of the “poll by engagement buttons” technique—but, as Michelle Visage would say, “I want more Gay Sh*t,” and I definitely want to help claim space for Queer and BIPOC voices as this space takes shape.

As for my own queer interests in RPGS: the Bromance of the High seas, Master and Commander, is an inspiration to me when it comes to writing my own RPG.

@wundergeek Hey hey! I'm a trans Jew working as lead editor at Paizo and specializing in Pathfinder 2e. I love crunchy games and geek out over game design.

@wundergeek I love this!!
Im Kit, a queer + disabled #TTRPG lover, currently focusing on #playtesting and #ActualPlay streaming! I love helping folks design fun and accessible games, and showing folks how to play those games once they’re out 💕

I adore horror games and anything that allows for a character-driven story 📚🎲✨

@wundergeek hi! NB/queer and very often games-playing person here. I play mostly 5E-based TT sessions via discord, but I'd like to try some non 5e systems. And I play a lot of video games, mostly cozy ones.
@wundergeek Hello! I am a queer ttrpg creator, player and mostly GM; I've run several LGBTQ+ friendly games for entirely queer & trans groups and always have inclusive themes in my gaming
@wundergeek Transbian into playing #TTRPGs and sometimes running them, player of #games (including sometimes on #twitch 😅 )...
@wundergeek hi Ash! I'm Ash! I'm a trans lesbian living in Stockholm trying to finish a bunch of #ttrpg projects that I've let languish in a Good Enough Early Access state for years. I tend to build #pbta and #fitd games with strong emphasis on systems design. You can find most of my games on https://acegiak.itch.io #itchio

@wundergeek Heya! Non-binary pan checking in! I'm a game and web developer, AP streamer, and forever DM.

I've got ADHD so it's tough to nail down any one hobby but I draw, cook, play games, bike, work out, enjoy trash TV, make cocktails, watch horror movies, learned a song on keyboard, and dote on my partner.

@wundergeek Hey! I'm an enby-ish queer nerd who mostly runs #ttrpgs, but also I #LARP when it doesn't involve being hit by stuff, and bonus if it allows me to dress up fancy and/or have feelings.

I've written and run a national level campaign for a larp, so I guess I can also call myself a game designer?

@wundergeek Hi yes I'm one of those queers you hear about on the internets and really want to connect more with others.

Long time game designer and developer (ttrpg/larp/video games). Currently working on a supplement for Lancer RPG.

@wundergeek hallo! Queer PoC here who would love to get more into TTRPGs but struggle to find people to play with
@wundergeek
Hi! I am a pansexual trans woman. I create and run scary games and write scary stories. I also write about martial arts and the paranormal.

@wundergeek I'm a queer, agender person interested in getting more into #TTRPG design. I'm gearing up to release my first quick rules set soon and I want to start working on something a little more involved!

#lgbtq #agender

@thornydryad
I'm looking forward to seeing your work!
@redfoxx thanks! I'm looking forward to releasing it after another playtest!
@wundergeek I miss TTRPGs, I haven't played in years with a DM.
@wundergeek I'm new here so i hope this is a reply function...anyways hi i'm queer and trans NBi and a POC !
@wundergeek Hi. Nicklas and assorted (pale as fuck) queer. Not that good at the actual game design bits — even though I've been known to hack stuff — but better at art.
@wundergeek Trying to figure out if you were serious or not asking white guys to boost (I'm a white guy)... 😅 But I'm totally into smaller TTRPGs and a long-time amateur game designer.
@wundergeek genderfluid Demi biro here, singlehandedly pricing that polyamory still doesn't mean you can get a consistent game table going 😅
@wundergeek I’m a queer neurodivergent female-ish person and really want to be in more #dnd campaigns
@wundergeek i'm a trans woman that had her first game funded on kickstarter last summer :D
@wundergeek Hi! I'm Alon, they/them. I write about trains for a living, but I used to LARP a lot in 2011-6 in the Northeastern US and I wrote a bunch of games, including some with very queer content.
@wundergeek I'm a queer nonbinary TTRPG gamer in a group with 7 other queer and/or enby gamers and one token straight.
@wundergeek Happy to boost without overthinking whether jews fall under BIPOC or not (but I will later I promise).
@wundergeek hey sup i'm pixel, i cause problems, you may remember me from long ago that's about it
@wundergeek Hi there! Queer genderfluid person who’s still figuring all that out while also designing little games about whatever strikes my fancy at the time, including dabbling in art for them too. Very much learning on all counts but enjoying it!
@wundergeek Howdy! Been a hot minute since I had a chance to play TTRPGs, but I've messed around with creating some custom games very loosely based off Call of Cthulhu rules
@wundergeek Cis straight non-gamer white guy here, new to Mastodon, boosting because you seem nice and are doing cool things!! Good luck! :)
@wundergeek Queer Black plural system and aspiring #ttrpg game designer here! Our current project is a series of 200-word games we're putting up on our Patreon - they're very deliberately a kind of hodgepodge, but we're particularly proud of the one about characters escaping a toxic society and unlearning harmful ideas they internalized from it.
@wundergeek I'm a white cis guy but I run a weekly Meet the Publisher feature on my blog where I try to highlight a diverse range of creators, including gay, trans, and BIPOC authors. Hit me up it you're interested.
@wundergeek my players can vouch that every tabletop campaign I've run has begun from the premise of "what if D&D, but gay" or "what if [book or game series I enjoyed], but gay." I feel lucky to have a great queer gaming community that digs that kind of thing.
@wundergeek Latine round-up-to-cis bi/pan ttrpg dork
@palecur @wundergeek "round-up-to-cis" omg yes love it. I often say "cis-adjacent" 😂
@virsamajor one of those things where it feels appropriative to pick any other designator but it's still an imprecise fit, yeah
@wundergeek black and queer, currently working on solarpunk card-based TTRPG
@knac @wundergeek oh I really wanna see that game!!!!
@wundergeek Hi, I'm tired and about to dose off as I'm typing this, but I'm very queer, neurodivergent, and like games. I'm mostly into Nintendo games but am currently playing Persona 5 Royal and the Resident Evil Village DLC. Also, hopefully Splatoon 3 again soon if my hands/arms will allow it. I also like anime but haven't been watching much lately. But I'm fairly knowledgable on it and if you hit the right triggers, you better prepare for rants :p

@wundergeek Me: bi, poly, yet aro paradoxically enough. Definitely non-neurotypical. Awfully pale, as the Swedish name, which I share with a far richer Swede, would indicate. I've been neglecting the games, including my brother's long-running campaigns, because I'm trapped inside a book I'm still editing.

Made sure to boost.

@wundergeek Hi I am Latin American and queer! I'm into writing #ttrpg
@wundergeek so, just checking so I don't screw it up - you'd like folk like me to boost?
@wundergeek bi-white-cis-male here. I mostly draw maps and rough write-ups for said - and gladly volunteer my work to the cool game creators in my circles.
@wundergeek yoooo i’m a trans poc interested in dnd 
@wundergeek yo! i’m trans (enby as well!) and video games are an interest of mine. i also make art! i hyperfixate heavy on certain video games and rn it’s overwatch!
@wundergeek I'm a trans larper who made a game for larpers that other people seem to like for some reason
@wundergeek hi! I'm a gay illustrator and I'm currently working on tarot cards for a tabletop game. I'm glad of this work because one of my assigned card was "Ten of Cups" whose meaning is happy family relatioships and I painted (and was approved) a multiethnic raimbow family 😊
@wundergeek hey Ash, good to see you in the fediverse! For readers, I'm April Walsh, the designer of Thirsty Sword Lesbians and other queer goodness. Been on mastodon for over five years so feel free to ask any questions or just say hi

@wundergeek
Hi there! I'm queer (not BIPOC) and interested in #TTRPGs.

I've dabbled in various forum/browser text-based RPGs (#MUDs anyone?) but I'm not great at sticking to a thing for a long time because #ADHD. I would absolutely love finding like-minded folks that want to play one-shots, or maybe persistent world RPGs — anything where me moving on to focus on a different hobby for a while wouldn't hurt other players.

Currently, I've been playing #Ironsworn with my girlfriend (though it's been a while), and I've been scratching my RPG itch by watching #CriticalRole :)

@wundergeek Hey there! Cismale pan author of queer SFF novels here, passionate TTRPG player. No idea if relevant for your project but wanted to say hi anyway. :)
