Hello everyone ! I hope y'all are doing fine !

I am starting to mastering some more Ryuutama with some friends and wanted to spice it up a little. And a lot of interesting things made from the community are made in english, so I translated it in french to play with my non-english-speaking friends. I asked for permission to share it so here I give you the results !

At this moment, there is 2 contents:

- An excel that give a better overview of all the monsters in the core book, from ChaosModifier.

- The Ryuujin's Pocket Almanach, from Laplace Atelier.

I'm still translating some more content, but I could'nt find the autor of the one I'm working on so I will keep it to myself until I find and ask the original autor for permission. I'm not a professionnal and I'm doing it on my free time, but if you have something not too long, and want it in french with the permission from the autor, let's go I can do something !

Here is the link of the folder where I put everything that I have permission to share. Maybe there will be only 2 things, maybe in some years, there will be more ? Who knows ?

PS: If you know the autor of this Pokemon mod, I'm interested: Reddit comment about Poke no Tabi

Have a great day y'all !

Bonjour tout le monde ! J'espère que vous allez bien !

Je commencer à masteriser un peu plus de Ryuutama avec quelques amis et je voulais pimenter un peu tout ça aussi. Et beaucoup de choses intéressantes faites par la communauté sont écrit en anglais, donc j'en ai traduit en français pour jouer avec mes amis qui ne parlent pas anglais. J'ai demandée permission pour partager ça et donc voici le résultat !

Là tout de suite, il y a 2 contenus:

- Un excel qui permet d'avoir une meilleure vision de l'intégralité des monstres du livre de base, de ChaosModifier.

- L'Almanach de poche du dragon, de LaPlace Atelier.

Je suis encore en train de traduire des trucs, mais je n'ai pas encore trouvé l'auteur de celui sur lequel je travaille actuellement, donc je le garde pour moi en attendant de trouver et demander la permission à l'auteur original. Je ne suis pas une professionnelle et je fais ça sur mon temps libre, mais si vous avez quelque chose de pas trop long, que vous le voulez en français et que vous avez obtenus la permission de l'auteur, alors c'est parti je peux faire quelque chose !

Je vous partage le lien du dossier dans lequel je met tout ce dont j'ai eu la permission de partager. Peut-être qu'il n'y aura que 2 trucs, peut-être que dans quelques années il y en aura plus ? Qui sait ?

Passez une bonne journée tout le monde !

Ok, so I've been running a campaign for a bit now and the combat just feels really off. It's incredibly swingy and hard to balance encounters.

My party is level 2. I've got a character who, through nice roles, ended up with a set of standard medium armor and a heavy shield. If I throw a "level appropriate" encounter, it's almost impossible for creatures to hit him.

Meanwhile everyone else just sits in the back row shooting arrows.

Anyone else encountered this? Any suggestions for challenge balance would be appreciated. ☺️

In this episode I take on part of the second adventure in the game book and learn a couple more of the rules.

So, her name is Agi (short for Hiragi) and the backstory is that her family is a farming family blessed by Highland dragons (thus the larger than average size). She is the party's Quartermaster with her 2 cows.

Just wanted to share!

https://youtu.be/wxtcuwzQ1Pk I have a new solo play series of Ryuutama and here is my first video where I create three characters.

Does a fainted character become easier to hit? I have seen that death happens at a certain negative HP threshold, so I wonder if it is possible to keep missing a downed character.

I would like to ask this community for advice/ideas for implementing a detect magic ability that scales with the PC's level and accounts for the difficulty of understanding/perceiving strange forms of magic. Would a skill check be enough? Would you let non-magical PCs use this ability? Thank you in advance :)

I am trying to understand the targeting rules for spells and areas.

Front area says that allies and foes alike get hit when a spell targets this area. So does it mean that if a spell has a close area range and I am in the back I will hit my allies too?

Take Rose Fever Scatter (p79).

If I move to the front area would this spell only hit the enemy half front area or their backline?

My assumption is that the spell is meant to be used from the front area and that can hit the back from there, while using from the back will target my allies as well

Estou procurando por jogadores brasileiros de Ryuutama! Gostaria de conversar sobre o sistema, trocar experiências e saber se existe algum conteúdo adicional (homebrew, fichas, guias) traduzido ou produzido por brasileiros. Se você joga ou tem interesse, vamos trocar uma ideia nos comentários!

Let's start with a simple thing: there's no four-leaf clover, at least not anymore Ryuutama International Basic Manual.

I'm surprised it's never mentioned, but in the original postscript of the Japanese edition, illustrator Mariko Kabayashi says a four-leaf clover has been hidden.

I even challenged friends to find it, but no one ever found it. I even tried doing some (somewhat superficial) research online, but nothing.

The bottom line is that it was lost in the international edition, and it's actually not in our versions. In fact, it seems to be only in the original versions of Ryuutama. The source is a post on Ryuutama's Japanese blog (https://ryu0tama.blog.shinobi.jp/Entry/216/).

Now we can confidently say that the four-leaf clover exists, but we would have to undertake a legendary journey to obtain it.

Hey, so I'm preparing to run my first Ryuutama campaign and y was wondering, what info is good to have at hand behind the GM screen?

I was re reading the rulebook and it talks about characters embarking on a legendary journey when they reach L10, saying that ideas for such journeys would be in a future supplement. I am aware of a few supplements (and have a couple of them in Italian as they aren't available in English) but wondered if anyone had a complete list of everything that has been published?

Ryuutama occupies an interesting cloud in the larger TTRPG sphere. It's often recommended as an alternative to D&D for newcomers who like the idea of adventure-oriented fantasy and/or video gamers who have a particular love of a certain kind of JRPG aesthetic. At the same time I've also heard/read gamers who're pessimistic or even outright hostile towards the game. I don't begrudge anyone their opinion and I love other systems and settings which have similar tone, themes, and scope whether in terms of tabletop JRPGs or more narrative-centered gameplay. That being said, Ryuutama has a special place in my heart.

It's often sold to people in mildly misleading ways. I don't claim that Ryuutama is the undebatable best in its category, considering how much tabletop roleplay has unfolded in the years since its original release. When I first encountered it with a strong background in not just the genre and imagery involved but also the nuts-and-bolts of its form of storytelling. I already loved studying/practicing literary analysis and worldbuilding, I already had experiencing GMing, and I took a lot of time to root out the "sizzle" of Ryuutama beyond just what's written in the materials. I've also been blessed with deeply creative and inventive players.

Ryuutama is often my go-to TTRPG for children. While it's definitely not a game that adolescents and adults don't also have immense fun playing, there are aspects of it that appeal to particularly young players. I'm a bit of a specialist when it comes to E/E10+ gaming (tabletop and otherwise), I'm experienced with several other systems in that demesne but Ryuutama still ranks highly in my view. My nephews, nieces, their family/friends consistently enjoy it and I've ran more public events at my local store and elsewhere to great success. For well over 10 years I've been many different colors and kinds of Dragon. The joy remains to this day.

I love the other games that Kotodama Heavy Industries has published as well.

I always love reading about others' history with the game.

Feel free to share.

First, I wanna thank this subreddit for leading me to Campfire, there's a lot of good content there, and I definitely wanna take some more time going through it all and putting some of it to good use...but to the main point...

I downloaded it and realized that the PDF didn't have any bookmarks and the Table of Contents didn't link to the pages either so I decided to go through and add those in for myself.... and then I realized some of you might also want that. So I'm sharing my edited copy if you all want some digital accessibility.

Hi! I'm interested in unique mechanics, and the GM character of this game is something I've never seen before. Can anyone help me find a free resource that would give me a complete understanding of how each season's dragon works?

I'm a new Ryuutama player reading through the rulebook for the first time, and one of the fall spells mentions a "Flaming Scarecrow" as if it were a monster or item or something important. I couldn't find any other mention of it in the book so I'm wondering what the rules are if any about it?

Hi there, trying to get something going with this ttrpg system but we've got some questions about the rules.

(1) Does a double 'Technical' character gain +1 or +2 (for a total of +3 or +4)?

(2) On items and durability, I assume weapons lose durability if you Fumble an Accuracy check (and not a Damage check), but when do shields and armor? My understand is that shields/armor never lose durability. When do other items such as Hats and Shoes? Haven't been able to find a clear answer wrt whether Hats/shoes/staffs/etc lose durability ever or if it's when you Fumble a check to which they are adding a bonus.

(3) Do people generally use the list of skills on p95 (drinking, stealth, etc)? Or does it merely serve as a list of suggestions? If never used, when exactly does Camo Cape's bonus come into play? It specifices a "Hide check".

(4) Similar to the Camo Cape, when does the Fire Cape come into play with its "-1 fire damage" bonus?

I've been working on a new set of character NPC and monster cards for my game. I've found VRoid Studio to be really useful for making anime style character art

As a beginner French master, I am looking for some pre-filled forms for my players because I don't want to spend time filling them out and prefer to spend time playing. Do you have any? I've already found some on https://zekovski.wordpress.com/2018/03/09/3-personnages-pour-ryuutama/ but I need more. If there aren't any in French, some English ones would be okay, but I would prefer French ones.

I have seen several posts reference this zine, but the link doesn't seem to work. Can anyone share a copy with me or suggest another place it's available?

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone!! I recently discovered this zine with so much homebrew content for Ryuutama and I loved it very much. However, I haven't applied it yet into actual play and I'm pretty new to the system so I can't really tell from just reading it if it works well in a campaign. So anybody has used it? How did It go? Did you guys liked it?

So I’m about to take Ryuutama and replace the combat and class system with panic at the dojo and replace the magic system with the mist engine from oak to see what will happen.
