Alright, here's a framework I've been using to analyse games. It's about the mechanical means by which players can exert their will onto the...| cavegirlgames.blogspot.com
here's a little idea for a game that's been floating around my head for a while. what if early D&D had been based around classic scifi rather than classic fantasy, but otherwise kept the same structures. how would you translate, say, b/x dnd into a scifi game. Why B/X? because it's my favourite edition, that's why.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff
Right! Something a bit different. Today, I'm interviewing my good friend Sarah Carapace to promote her current kickstarter Violet Core (linked here), in what can only be described as a feat of shameless nepotism. I've been following the development of Violet Core with interest for a few years now, and now I get to ask all the juicy questions I want about it.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff
I had an idea knocking around inside my head, and then I saw that Dan had already done it over on Throne Of Salt, which rather undercut my brilliant originality.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff

I've been looking back at Esoteric Enterprises, and listening to French Antifascist Rap and arguing about 40k lately, and looking at the state of the world and the inexorable rise of authoritarianism at home and abroad, and being grumpy about how DnD-like games position PCs, and it's slowly solidified into some thoughts.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff

OK here's the pitch: You know the concept people throw out sometimes in Vampire games, of a medieval (or pehaps older) vampire who's woken up from a millenia or two of torpor and has no idea what's going on? A chronicle that's that but they're from the modern day.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff
There's a vampire the masquerade game I'm playing in. One, Josephine, is a successful ancilla, with significant social influence over mortal and vampire society, a title in the camarilla court and a big pile of mind-control she can do. The other, Anh, is a mentally ill (and rather impressionable) mortal scientist who's been actioned off to one of the local vampires as a ghoul, and who's had a total emotional breakdown as a result.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff

As with my post on the Kiasyd this is all completely unofficial and I have no idea what, if anything, White Wolf plan to do with the Sirens in v5. This is my own take on them, hacked together for v5 based on what I find cool about them.| Cavegirl's Game Stuff
