I have two invite codes to Bluesky if anyone would like to try somewhere the grass is greener :)

@scottjohnson Have you tried Chroma Squad? Not quite TMNT, but it's a meta retro TRPG based on the Sentai genre (power rangers).

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

@Wonton_ I've got an Anglo-Saxon name and I have to spell it out or it will inevitably be wrong.

And I am just amused when I call call centers and they try to say it.

@MattHartleChem @astrocalluna A feat I've not seen before and will never see again.

And @golfgalaxy to the rescue, letting me swap out the LH for RH. No restock fee, no return shipping. Phew.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

When failure to read a single word on a product description costs you near $100.

Bought new Wedges from @2ndSwingGolf and didn't see they were left-handed.

So, they charge $15 for shipping back, and will charge a restock fee on the 2nd.

Plus new shipping on the new RH ones. :(

@Gulvanvs Imagine if you did it on a full res image!

The airship is smoking, but still flying. The party hot dropped to the tower and found a secret entrance. They are burnt, broken, and wounded, but they have arrived.

It's now time to invade the #CrystalTower.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

That moment when your 10 round massive TTRPG set piece combat takes 3 hours and comes down to the last round. Kill or be killed.

Today's #CrystalTower game included their daring escape through the streets of Saronia to the hidden airship of Captain Cid.

Escaping to the skies, the party gets 2 days of clear skies, a dance with faeries, and a little sugar

As the Crystal Tower looms, the voidsent say hello.

The short mini-campaign themed with Final Fantasy is a lot of fun to DM. Creating Materia magic items has been a great joy of mine.

Amazing how different people are wired.

Went to a campsite today that some family members had up. They had been out camping for weeks.

Within an hour, swarmed with flies, bit by all manner of insects, and sweating my balls off from the humidity, I had my fill for the year.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

Absolute chaos as the party enters the Bowl of Judgment for a 5v5 CTF arena fight.

Crowd is going wild as each team has a combatant on the ground. HP is low, spell slots more so.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

Mixing 2d and 3d. Need to do this more often!

Saturday's game is gonna be 🔥

I mean, look at this sweet chaos.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

Used the Minion ruleset from @mattcolville 's Flee, Mortals! last night. Didn't tell the players.

Round 2 when all the minions flooded out of the towers like a clown car:

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

Sky pirates are grounded by magitek cannons. The heroes are recruited to take them out and reopen the skies.

Splitting the party nearly had disastrous results as Sorina nearly perishes in the tower, but is saved by the fast moving Stepho.

Cannons down, they take to the skies.

[Chaithi @chaithi.bsky.social @The_Chaithi]

The war heroes have been branded traitors to the Empire. In the Crow's Nest, home of sky pirates, the heroes will have a tense conversation. Will they talk their way out? Or will blood be shed?

Can't wait to find out.

@Wonton_ @Allayva tried this on us, but since it's not a widely used TTRPG mechanic, two players were KOed and another dropped to single digits.

I think it works great, especially using LA to proc the start, but this has to be communicated thoroughly.
