Role Play is Folklore told in real time.
This blog was made in the hopes of collecting, and archiving ttrpg stories- your campaigns, the deed of your heroic PCs, the villainy of your terrible BBGs.
My name is Bix. I have a degree in both writing and literature and am a folklore enthusiast. A thought dawned on me one day. A terrible notion that shook me to my bones- one day we're all gonna die (that wasn't the notion) and, if they haven't been properly recorded, our ttrpg stories are going to go with us (that's it).
Not all of us are Matthew Mercer, Brennan Lee Mulligan, Aabria Iyengar or any number of well known role play professionals that have the time and set up to record and edit beautiful audio recordings of our sessions. Some of us (because of the kind of games we play) can't be that.
Some of us don't want to be that.
However, it still makes me sad at the prospect that so many stories could be lost- stories that speak to the time and place that we occupy. Stories that can be academically studied. Stories that can inspire.
Send me those stories.
Gush about them to me in my ask box. Send me an email. Send me art. Send me a shitty audio recording if you have it.
I'm sure there are other projects like this, but what's one more- Help me to archive this work we are all doing. I genuinely think it's important it survives.
