Yesterday was the first official day of winter. It is cold and dark. I have nothing to add about that.
I had been working on a Castles&Crusades adventure, but I never felt that good about it (even as it was coming along fine). I find the system to be a tiny bit vanilla, to be honest, and the market is teeny-tiny if we ever wanted to actually sell things. Then, I started working on something for BRP, a system I really like, but found it a tad too crunchy for my taste re: writing. Playing, sure, but writing? Then, I took what I was writing for BRP, switched it over to DCC, and let my imagination loose. The system is incredibly easy to work with (you can see the comparison of a BRP stat block vs. a DCC stat block below, both for the same creature, a ghoul), and it brings out the absolute crazy in me. As a life-long fan of Sword&Sorcery, Appendix N books, and Weird Tales, DCC scratches a deep itch in my brain for just my plain fucking gonozo imagination. Space-horror! Sci Fi-fantasy! Mix is all up in a pot and see what comes out! So fun!
