    I've been thinking a lot about dice rolls.

    I want to make something between Tiny and [%], and I've just been mulling over the particular dice roll for it for a few weeks now. I've been doing this because I want something interesting, something fun. I mean, in any RPG, you're going to be rolling dice a lot, and I figure that should be at least a somewhat entertaining process, right?

    Right now I'm looking at d4s, 'cause nobody ever uses the little guys, and I think you could do something with them.

    Just sitting here on my day off, thinking about nonstandard ways you could read 3d4s.

    There should be a lot of news coming out in the next couple of months, assuming everything develops as it should.

    Also, I feel like Great Axe requires a lot of art to make the joke work.

    Gem-Encrusted Great Axe of Civility (2d12 vs. Diplomatic Issues) is funny on paper, but needs an image to really send it home.

    Like a bas relief on each side of the axe of someone sensibly dressed in diplomatic uniform and holding an olive branch. One side is a beefy dude and the other a busty woman, because it's still axe-art.

    When Dubh and I originally conceived the thing, the basic conceit was that all true power comes from Great Axes.

    Character creation consisted of rolling 2d12 (representing the Great God Axe cutting your free from the Before Life), which would randomly generator your peasant form. There were no stats involved, just cosmetic elements.

    Then you'd choose your starting Great Axe. When holding a Great Axe, a peasant would become mightily thewed, ripped of beef, and bulging of sinew. The level of the Great Axe determined the degree to which they were embiggened.

    All non-Great-Axe-holding enemies and objects would have, at most, 8 HP.

    If you were disarmed, you'd revert to your peasant form until you could regain your Great Axe or find a new one.

    There was going to be a whole upgrade system that you'd explore as you leveled your Great Axe. You could customize its hilt, head, pommel, crest, etc. A Great Axe with a Livingoak Hilt, for instance, noted its wielder as a friend to nature, and its blade could then cut through the binds that would free animals and plants to attack your enemies. A Great Axe with a Shadowsilver Head might allow its wielder to destroy the image of himself in enemies eyes.

    The makeshift band of investigators make their way to Owens bar, intent on figurin out who caused the fire. They enter, and are greeted by the sight of….

    *Snap*

    Boy. You were dozin off. Is my story borin you? It’s understandable, this is a tad less exciting than a shootout with them drunken Spits. I understand, but I can’t go skippin to the story of Samson the Grand Buffalo without getting ya invested in the characters first. Ill speed it up a little, prologues can be a bit of a drag.

    Morse’s gut feelin was correct. It ain’t Owen who set fire to the crop. No, he was as fumin mad as everyone else. But soon as you show him that there bottle, the fury subsides for a look of pain.

    He says he knows exactly who bought it. Walt McVey, came in sometime last week and bought several crates, said he was just stalkin up. Owen didn’t think nothing of it, sometimes a man’s just got to forget. Walt was a friend, came in often, paid well, complained about life. Just like every other customer. Said he lived on a farm outside a town, lived out there all alone with his cattle.
    And with that the gang decided to pay Walt a visit.

    Farm was the same as the rest. Nice large farmhouse in the center, sheds and equipment scattered about, and one man who needs a stern talking to somewhere inside.

    [Dom José Marcos Sempavor de Évora do Ouro (Zezé)] [Fiery +1][Noble +1][One Arm]
    I: Cavalry Sabre



    José, with a grim look in his eyes, lays down the lantern he carried over in his arm on the porch. Unscrewing the lamp he begins to sprinkle the oil over the porch and walls around the door. The splatters were not leaving a stained mess, the obvious hint of what he just did being the smell of oil in the air outside. With his task done breaks his silence by slamming the door with his good fist.

    "Seu cabrão! Get out here McVey!"

    Hey, I know that people paying money for Twitter followers/Facebook likes is a thing, but does anyone know if the same can be said for following others on Twitter?

    I ask, because I've recently been getting a bunch of email notices of suspect followers to the account I've barely ever used. It just seems odd to me.

    Jin sits down next to the classy lady and says, "Understandable. Hacking's not much fun for anyone who isn't the hacker. On the bright side, though, this hacker seems to me more interested in...'artistry,' let's say, than doing any harm." He chuckles and points at one of the monitors. "Plus, that actually is a nice screensaver. Would be very soothing, if not for the excess fog."
