Not gonna lie, "magic stealer" is a really bad name. What's wrong with the classic spellthief?

I really like the sentinels comics rpg - https://www.greaterthangames.com/pages/sentinel-comics
It's based on the sentinels of the multiverse card game, and has a really unique system. Basic low down - every roll you have die based on a "stat", a power, and your (or the scene's) status (green, yellow, red).
On a basic roll, you always take the middle die as your results. Powers might alter this or do something extra.
So for example, let's say you have super strength as a stat for a d8, a power die of a d6 for the power you're using, and a d6 for your current status (green). You'd roll all three of these and take whatever value is the "middle" result (so like d8 - 2, d6 - 4, d6- 5, you'd get a 4).
Powers might do something like "deal damage equal to the lowest die, but heal an ally for the middle die" or "deal damage with the highest die, but take a penalty equal to the lowest die"
Yeah, there was some indexing issues with some of the images when we migrated. Stuff had to be cleaned up, but i think we lost a number of thumbnails with those issues. It should just be mostly thumbnails that were affected of some existing stuff; I'm not aware of way to regenerate thumbnails outside of just uploading a new image.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all!
yeah, there was some database indexing issues, so we had to reindex it, plus the server needs to catch up on 3~4 days of fediverse activity. Hopefully things should even out. I'm not noticing too much slowness myself, though.
Just an update: after a few hiccups and a late start, its been chugging along; It's around 1/3rd of the way done, currently. Didn't get started until late yesterday, and the process died a few times, but its been running just fine most of today. If i had to guesstimate, it's probably gotten a good ~12-14 hours of run time to get to this point
there's actually great resources for getting started online. There's a site called start playing games dedicated to matching new people to a DM. Note that services like that cost money. There's also the virtual tabletop roll20 which has a group finder for you to find a game. It will have a mix of free and paid games. Alternatively, you can crowdsource that such as on r/lfg on reddit (unfortunately the LFGs here on lemmy don't seem to be active enough to find games), or through various discord servers, including the official D&D discord. Another that has reasonably active LFG type sections to try is the Fantasy grounds (another VTT) discord.
For in person play, you can also look in to local gaming stores that might run adventurer's league, which is the sort of 'official' play wizards of the coast sanctions at local stores and at conventions.
yep, you are correct; i always accidentally lump it in together because of how related/similar they are, my bad.
"thing over rice" is nigiri. Nigiri, sashimi, and Maki rolls are all types of sushi.
This is extremely messy, but a quick job to just change the font style really fast. Lots of things dont quite line up, but its a start if this helps. I'll go through later and fix it up, and add it to the store links.

i suppose i could make a version with a 'normal' font. Technically should only take a few seconds as i modify the styling, but its likely to mess up all the orientation/formatting of the document. I'll look into that later, thanks for the feedback!

Releasing a space-faring arthurian knights TTRPG ive been working on for a little while now
(ttrpg.network)
Hey all! I've been working for the past year-and-a-half-ish on a TTRPG game in my spare time. I've finally decided to put it out there in the wild. The main reason for creating this is to flex creative and design muscles more than anything.
For a short synopsis, the game is inspired by 16-bit era video games and tries to pull off similar aesthetic choices. It's also inspired by things like warhammer 40k, D&D, space-themed movies and TV shows.
The Pendragon Nebula is a hot-spot for weird, psionic activity. The Mad King Artur attempts to clamp down on all the inhabitants of the solar system and enforce his will upon all his subjects, but his hold has been slipping in recent decades. Baronies, Cities, and even whole planets are in rebellion.
Play as a psionic wielding psi-knight, space adventurer, or ship's engineer, among other options!
It features heavy use of psionic powers, as well as a reasonably rich character progression system.
The entire system uses only D6's, which was a design constraint i wanted to put on myself.
It's completely free in a "pay what you want" fashion, and i would love to hear any thoughts and feedback, as well as your experience playing it!
