  • Here’s few of my goofy items over the years.

    Lantern of in-sight: causes any object or entity you’re aware of and can keep a direct line of sight on to glow as bright as a non magical lantern. The lantern itself does not produce light. Had a player use it to highlight someone hiding in a crowd when the party failed to see them.

    Jewel of Becoming: when activated the player became a gemstone for 1d6 hours. The rogue ended up exploiting this heavily by becoming a jewel and either having another player sell her or just being in the path of someone. Once she turned back she’d rob them blind and sneak out back to the party.

    Immovable ladder: it was a rope ladder but the rungs in the middle and either end were immovable rods. This one the artificer cobbled together in game and I allowed for it. They spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to use it for more than a reliable way down from a second floor but never did manage anything wild. They couldn’t even really use it to go up because someone would still and go climb up there to set the top rod.

    Maxwell’s Morning Tonic: a bitter, dark, and slightly oily potion that when drank, counts as a short rest or turns a short rest into a long rest. It also gives you a -1d6 to hit and sleight of hand. It’s just a strong coffee.















  • This is basically how we run our clan, everything but the top two tiers are identical and the different titles are just based on how much you donate or help others.

    I can give two major tips. Firstly, don’t just promote everyone to max. Keep a shortlist of people you trust not to delete the decor or rooms, and everyone else just gets the dojo and the help.

    Second, recruit around Mars to Saturn. If they got that far in the game, they’re a fan and they’ll likely be around for the long haul. If you snag them there, the help from experienced players and the access to a stocked dojo will seal them in and you may end up with a few good friends and regular gaming buddies. Before that and you catch a bunch of lookie loos who picked up the free game and will likely not sick to it. After that and you run into more clans like yourself, one tenno teams who may be too invested in their own dojo to abandon it for someone else’s.






  • I love liminal spaces so much. Not the cg nonsense ones with the weird pools or endless test cell rooms but real ones. Hallways that fell crammed into buildings, like they build the rooms before realizing they need to be accessible. Rooms that have been converted into other rooms but will have the remnants of it’s original use, like a stairway turned closet that still has the stairs as woefully inefficient shelves. Bedrooms that still have piping for the kitchen appliances that used to be there. Legal offices turned into studio apartments.

    I love things like this.
