One BIND module, composed with 3 leaves in a signature. Bound with floss and gaffa-tape (like most FLOSS projects).

@silverwizard I've not heard of Agents of ODD - where should I put it in the geneology?

For more open-source RPGs, feel free to fork BIND, or add some adventures: https://gitlab.com/bindrpg/aif

@silverwizard I made a little geneology:

@rysiek @LydiaConwell of course you know, this means DistroWars for RPGs.

...Pathfinder is proprietary. Try Knave, it comes with the source file!

Gnomes use treasure maps as currency, as none of them want to walk long distances with bags of heavy coins.

Humans who use these maps to hunt down the treasure are always disappointed, as they lift the treasure-chest's lid, and find it's full of maps. This is because, as covered earlier, gnomes use treasure maps as currency, as none of them want to walk long distances with bags of heavy coins.

OMG - you have encountered A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SPIDER!

A friend did radio for the Kingdom like ten years ago. She was 'Albion Rose', I think? I joined her for a couple of episodes.

@Printdevil That sounds fun. Inkscape supports textures...sort of, maybe with an embedded image?

I'm making a realistic cave adventure, but realistic art is quite beyond me, so I've been doodling something like the Bayeux tapestry with stick figures.

Where is the gitlab page? I can't see it on the website (https://riotmedicine.net/).

If the computer can identify him, what's the password for?

Is it all security theatre? I wouldn't put it past Star Fleet.

See in Star Trek how there's always an auto-destruct sequence, and the captain can shut it down with a password? Do you think you could just fillibuster it to stop the ship exploding?

I.e. everyone just says 'I am Picard, my password is password123', over and over?

And if not, then couldn't anyone *stop* the override (even if Picard gives his password) by simply shouting nonsense over him in a nihilistic DoS attack?

So I took the classic racial description of orcs and applied it to humans, and I think it actually works.

It's less about describing humans, and more about describing the other creatures (if everyone is 'short', then they're not short, you're tall).

Hopefully it doesn't come across as snide.

I am very lost with this whole project. Growing up around farms didn't help the logistics.

But keeping the monsters down helps - I have only ~4. One burrows like a mole, and giant spiders and land-octopuses could just clambor over any wall.

The inner walls around the baileys are only there for basilisks. I figure small huts might be placed around the farmland, so people can run inside. No way anyone's out-running a giant arachnid. They must move at least as fast as a horse.

I have once again been musing on exactly how you'd structure a farm in a world of wandering monsters.

Estimates from Stack Exchange et c. suggested a bailey of about 100 people might survive with farmland of about 1.2 miles diameter, if the land is good.

With a little empty space from the forest around the edge (to keep a little distance from wandering monsters), we're at about 1.4 miles diameter.

...and may as well do the same for the brochs ('watchtowers').

All the posh Victorian gentlemen had rugs and boots made from the skin of distant animals.

Fantasy lands need more basilisk boots, griffin-stuffed pillows, and displacer-rugs.

No need putting the gold in a beast's lair every time when you can put it in the carcus.

@icedquinn
I went online over the height of the pandemic. For initiative, I just shared a screen, and brought up vim with ':set number'.

As usual, the speed is unsurpasable.

...or maybe not. I've never seen a VTT except Mythic Table.

I've stumbled upon D&D videos about initiative, and what the hell is wrong with these people?

Paper records noted *each round*?

A whiteboard? Really?

A set of custom-made cards - *another set of equipment*, after the character sheet, and possibly after miniatures.

@icedquinn rules light doesn't much come into it. Môrk Bōrg is rules light, but without any available source files.

Fate is the same - it has some text document somewhere, but not nearly enough to reconstitute the book.

I had another check to see if anyone else is making an open source RPG, and I can't find anything undernearth all the lies.

Open Legend takes 5000 words to explain that you can reference their SRD (i.e. make a bibliography), but nothing else:

Expedition has source code, but requires an 'app'. Unsure if this qualifies as a 'tabletop RPG'.
