Heya Everyone, new Mega time and for it, I’m gonna advertise a TTRPG system called Thirsty Sword Lesbians.

A sword duel can end in kissing, a witch can gain her power by helping others find love, and an entire campaign can be built around wandering matchmakers flying from system to system.

Thirsty Sword Lesbians is a roleplaying game for telling queer stories with friends. If you love angsty disaster lesbians with swords, you have come to the right place.

In this book, you’ll find:

Flirting, sword-fighting, and zingers in a system designed for both narrative drama and player safety.

An innovative take on the Powered by the Apocalypse family of games.

Nine character types, each focusing on a particular emotional conflict: Beast, Chosen, Devoted, Infamous, Nature Witch, Scoundrel, Seeker, Spooky Witch, and Trickster.

Guidance and support for running the game, including how to make appealing adversaries, set the tone, pace the game, and structure play.

Tools to create your own settings and stories, alongside a dozen pre-written options including the cyberpunk Neon City 2099, steamfunk poets battling oppression as Les Violettes Dangereuses, laser swords and intrigue in the Starcross Galaxy, and more.

World building worksheet for custom scenarios and starting scenario seeds to play with: Best Day of Their Lives, The Constellation Festival, Gal Paladins, and Sword Lesbians of the Three Houses Variant rules to highlight different identities, emotional connections, and setting elements.

Strategies to adapt any setting where swords cross and hearts race for Thirsty Sword Lesbians.

Here’s a link to their website, I did copy everything over directly from it because I put off writing the Mega this week. I was drawing a blank on what I wanted to talk about. catgirl-huh

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

    I had a dream that someone here (won’t say who) got stood up on a date and sad sad and messaged me to play Ace Combat 8 to fill the night instead.

    I’ve never played Ace Combat, so it’s crazy to me that 8 is the one being worked on right now.

    Making (chicken) noodle soup yum yum yum, the “chicken” is pressed and cooked off tofu. I dunno how to represent the stringy side of animal chicken in tofu, it being tougher is the best I got

    Mirepoix base, vegetable broth, onion broth base, rotini, tofu, quinoa, little cut in half grape tomato at the end, gonna give some to my mom - she’s been sick

  • deadnaming, sort of?

    so I finished my voice training course, and they sent me like a little “graduation certificate” which is cute and whatever… but they got my name wrong on it, they put the incorrect last name. So now I’m sitting here anxious trying to not feel like a troublesome asshole or whatever for being like “heey, can you give me one with my actual correct name on it?” doggirl-sweat
