Forgot to promote our sideblogs here

We made two for writing and reblogging within Empty Spaces and its related archetypes. Those blogs are @the-empty-skies and @the-emptier-skies respectively.

For those who don't know what Empty Spaces is, its a fiction community of traumatized, trans, and/or nonhuman/nonperson entities, that explore and project their experiences and identities through fictional archetypes such as witches, dolls, angels, demons, moths, mech pilots, and more. It's a space for the discarded and broken and marginalized. It is everything and nothing all at once. It is the spaces inbetween, and it has been our home for these past few months.

it's that time of year when countless people in countless schools and universities start thinking about running a d&d night, and I'm here to tell you: that's the devil talking. listen, I play a lot of games, D&D among them, and I run a LOT of events for college students. what you want is a game with dirt simple mechanics, character creation that can be completed in about a minute or less, and a contingency plan to split your attendees into groups if too many of them show up to reasonably play together. maybe something that doesn't even have dice idk. I'm not being a buzzkill I SWEAR I'm sincerely trying to save you from the horrors of a D&D night where 20 people show up and half of them have level 20 characters packing 16 magic items and a bad case of Main Character Syndrome and the other half are going to need to spend 45 minutes making their first character sheet ever. just play a different game man.

some games that my co-GM and I are planning to run this year:

Dread

Queer Coven

Fiasco

I'm Sorry Did You Say Street Magic

The Quiet Year

Raccoon Sky Pirates

Lasers and Feelings or one of its many hacks

Knave if the students are very good

#like people are looking for the dnd experience not really any of these suggestions#have a bunch of premade archtype stuff ready and do a real dungeon grinder like a youll die before the session is over and someone else wil#get to play you enjoy the snacks or apples to apples afterwards#sorry this tagging is rude

well. people are going to learn that a.) open drop-in nights with an unknown number of attendees aren't the best format for D&D and b.) other games are also fun! assuming they aren't already familiar with and hype for games that aren't d&d, which. you know. a lot of people are. nobody is forcing anyone to play anything they don't want to or stopping them from playing d&d at home in a smaller group :)

hi gang, I'm checking in half a year later at the end of the semester, typing this from the very last TTRPG night of the semester. at our last meeting I ran Street Magic, and tonight my co-facilitator is running a session of Justicar set in the world we built. I've also introduced games like Oh Fuck the Killer, Fishblade, and Fiasco, and my co-facilitator has run things games including Stewpot and Low Stakes.

do you know what the coolest part has been? it's watching people come in knowing how to play exactly one game but taking a chance on something new, and realize that they're having a lot of fun. there's always a fumbling period while we figure out the rules together, because often myself and my co-facilitator are also playing a game for the very first time!

but it's so cool to see the real time process of watching players figure out new ways to engage with a game! different mechanics for character interactions, systems that aren't even built to facilitate combat, new ways to use dice, games that don't use dice at all, character sheets asking for info they've never considered generating for a character before, games that don't have individual characters at all, stories that get built collaboratively instead of determined by a single person, the list is really endless. players will so often start out hesitant and awkward, then lean in and embrace the new system for everything it's worth and throw themselves totally into the game. the results are messy and silly and frequently don't make for perfect stories, but everyone always has fun trying it out and taking risks together.

I'm really grateful that so many students have taken a chance on us, and I hope that anyone who's worried that it's not realistic to think anyone will play anything but D&D can reconsider that and see who shows up to play :)

as you get older, you start realizing that you are not always right and there’s a lot of things you could have handled better and many situations where you could have been kinder and all you can really do is forgive yourself and let your mistakes make you a better person.

"nontransitioning nonbinary people who did nothing except change their name, pronouns and label"

ah, so you mean nonbinary people who *checks notes* have transitioned.

[lgbt3]

i've had cis people ask me "so are you going to transition?"

[themaveriqueagenda]

they'll really be staring us in the face after we told them we're nonbinary, told them our pronouns and name and ask if we're gonna transition. they'll be straight up looking at our amended birth certificates and ask if we're gonna transition. they'll be literally putting our name and gender marker change in their system and ask if we're gonna transition.
