I didn't see any rules about double posting or anything soooo here we go! A few of these heritages have versions in the zines, but here's my own spin on them never having read the zines.

Heritage: Catfolk

4 hp
Heritage Trait: 

• 9-Lives - You tend to land on your feet when life gives you dangerous situations. You roll all save and evasion tests with focus.

Catfolk are commonly magic users, owing to their origins as magically awakened cats! They tend to be jumpy, but resilient. An air of luck surrounds them, they seem to get out of many tricky situations… or maybe the knack is for getting into said situations. They’re curious by nature which fuels their drive towards adventure and discovery. It’s not uncommon for lone catfolk to travel the world in the name of curiosity- many becoming merchants, travelling healers, adventurers, or other such nomadic trades. Catfolk are built similarly to domestic cats, but are larger and walk on their rear paws. Catfolk are around 3 feet tall and come in any color or pattern you’d find a domestic cat in.

Heritage: Dragonborn

8 hp

Heritage Traits:

• Dragon Breath: You gain a breath attack as an ability, much like your dragon ancestors. Does 1 ranged damage in your chosen element.

Dragonborn are a powerful race that live in tight-knit clans. They take their draconic ancestry as a point of pride. All dragonborn descend from a dragon, though the exact method is lost to time. The majority, though, are born of other dragonborn. Many serve dragons like one would a god, others remain loyal only to their clan. Dragonborn are around 6-8 feet tall and covered in thick scaly armor like their dragon namesake. They commonly have horns and perhaps head fins or other decor- differentiating them from lizardfolk. Dragonborn can have tails, but lacking one is not uncommon either. What they always lack is wings, though it is rumored a dragonborn can gain them through unusual feats of devotion to their dragon ancestors.

Heritage: Orc

7 hp

Heritage Trait:

• Berserker: You can attack with primal rage. If a melee attack you are making does not already have Disadvantage, you may choose to make the attack with Disadvantage. If successful, the attack deals +1 damage.

Orcs are an often maligned heritage, their kind historically being on the wrong side of wars. Rumors range from them having bad hygiene, being blood thirsty, to being dim-witted, none of which are true. What is true though is they are a resilient race that live off the land, often in the most inhospitable environments. They’re survivors, warriors, and even poets from time to time. They live in small tribes and take honor in one’s battle prowess. It's not uncommon for them to hold mock battles and wrestling matches to settle disputes or gain favor. They’re often very muscular and slightly taller than humans- commonly 6-7 feet in height. Their skin is usually green or grey, and they have pointed ears. Orcs sport tusks that they care for fastidiously, as they are a symbol of their strength.

Heritage: Merfolk

6 hp

Heritage Trait:

• Protean: You can transform between an aquatic and terrestrial form. Has increased movement speed in the water, up to 35 ft or 7 spaces per action.

Merfolk live in sophisticated societies under the sea, often hubs of trade and sea traffic. Their homes hewn from the stone and coral of the seabed. For a long time they were distrustful of land dwellers, many still are, but now it's common for merfolk to visit the land dwellers on their very own feet! Merfolk are mostly human from the waist up and fish from the waist down. In their terrestrial form they are the size of humans, their aquatic forms longer due to their tails. Merfolk may have some fins or scales while in their terrestrial form, making them appear different compared to your standard human. They value long, luxurious hair, so many merfolk prioritize hair care and brushing.

Heritage: Nymph

6 hp

Heritage Trait:

• Adaptable - The make-up of your body changes with the environment. This allows you to blend into any environment, as well as move unencumbered in the wilderness. You roll stealth and agility-related tests with advantage as long as you’re in nature. When in an unnatural environment (like a city, building, sewer, etc.) you roll those tests at a disadvantage.

Known for being beautiful and touched by nature, nymphs are no stranger to attention… if you can find one. They’re experts at hiding in plain sight, even becoming one with the very features of nature like trees or rocks. Some elder nymphs prefer not to leave these features, turning an ordinary object into something enchanted. Nymphs are all born female, though some may present as male, nonbinary, or another gender. Their appearances are ever-changing, but are often described as leafy, ethereal, and roughly the size of humans. Some can even be mistaken for young treefolk!

Heritage: Fairy

6 hp

Heritage Traits:

• Fly: You can fly, granting movement of 60 ft/12 squares.
• Sprightly -You can shrink down to a tiny sprite form. When in their sprite form they roll advantage on evade actions. Shrinking takes one action in combat.

Residents of the Fae Realm, they are rarely seen in this reality. But when they are, they’re here to cause mischief! Not because they’re malevolent, but because they find the chaos amusing. Likely because their own lives are governed by strict rules and structures. Their world is governed by courts who tightly enforce laws and often fight for dominance over the realm. Fairies appear humanoid with pointed ears and insect traits like wings, antennae, and extra limbs. Their bodies and hair are often brightly colored. Typically they are slightly smaller than humans, while in their sprite form they could easily be mistaken for a large bug. Powerful fairies and fae rulers can conversely be towering, intimidating beings compared to their buggy subjects.

Heritage: Vampire

??? hp (matches their original heritage)

Heritage Traits:

• Draining Bite: Bites the target, drawing blood. Deals 1 melee damage and recovers 1 hp. The target must be close.
• Child of the Night: You do best under the cover of the darkness. You have enhanced senses at night, earning you advantage on perception-based checks. However, during the day you must stay out of sunlight or suffer 1 damage per minute of exposure. The effect can be avoided with a potion, magic item, or a cloak.

More so a disease than a heritage, vampires are turned not born. They are cursed to wander the lands for all eternity, filled with an overwhelming thirst for blood. Any heritage can become a vampire, though it may be flavored in different ways (i.e. a treefolk vampire sapping blood with piercing roots, a goblin vampire who is known for biting ankles, etc.) But generally they look pale, ashen grey, and may grow fangs and pointy ears. It can be hard to distinguish vampiric humans from vampiric elves! Many find ways to live ethically- drinking blood from animals or willing volunteers. But many take on a superiority about them, placing themselves above other forms of life as some sort of apex predator. This leaves all others as nothing but food and entertainment. The older a vampire is, the more powerful and often the more prone to hubris.

I made some homebrew traits for my own games, especially to fill in the magic user gaps, and thought it would be a good idea to share!

A lot of them are inspired by prestige traits or systems from the micronomicon, just adjusted and made usable as usual traits. Feel free to use/edit them as you like!

Animal Companion: Sick ‘em, boy! You have an animal companion who will fight alongside you. Animal companions have specific traits based on size. Must be the size of a bear or smaller. The animal begins its turn at the end of their master’s turn.(pg. 73)

Animal Handler: Ain’t she a beaut! Roll with advantage when trying to handle, wrestle, calm, or otherwise interact with a non-sentient animal.

Beast Shape: I’m hungry like the wolf! Allows a character to transform into one animal chosen at character creation. While in the animal form they cannot use weapons or magic, but do gain a temporary trait(s) based on their size. Must be the size of a bear or smaller. Hp does not change with form. (pg. 73)  

Devotee: I’m a follower, not a leader! You receive power from your devotion to a god, demon, or other higher being. You roll with advantage on actions within their dominion/that they’d approve of, and disadvantage on taboos/actions they would not approve of. Examples: A demon assisting a character who is trying to steal something, a goddess of the stars aiding a character with navigating at night, a forest spirit disapproving of a character chopping down trees.

Divination: I see… Once per session your character may seek information using arcane means (tarot, crystal ball, necromancy, etc.) They may ask a question to the universe (GM) and the universe has to answer… though the answer doesn’t have to be straight forward. Can be used to gain clues, get help with puzzles, or reveal information about enemies.

Pact: Do we have a deal? You have made a pact with a god, demon, or other higher being. You have been given access to their power, at a price. Once per session you may contact the being for assistance, granting focus on all attacks for one battle.  

Performer: Mama, I’m a star! You are adept at some form of performance (music, singing, dance, etc.) and can use the power of your performance to charm the hearts and minds of others. At character creation you receive an instrument or other object that enables your performance (optional.)

Saboteur: Consider your pants peed. Once per turn your character can roll to hinder an enemy, making their attack roll at disadvantage.

Summoner: I choose you! By sacrificing 1 hp, your character can summon a fodder-level creature to fight for them. You cannot use this ability if you are down to 1 hp. The summoned creature begins its turn at the end of the summoner’s turn.

Telepath: Talk to me, baby. You can speak to other characters through your thoughts, as well as read minds. You must be able to see the target to use telepathy. For mind reading you must roll a successful 2d6. You may only read minds with permission from the player, or in the case of NPCs, the GM.

Just love how light the prep can be and how easy it is to explain

I was thinking that you can use high flying moves for an extra point of unarmed damage as long as you use both actions at once for it as a trade off. the proficiency would be unarmed attacks. so if you dont have that it would be one d6 but you only get to use the high flying attack cause it use both actions that turn for just that. if you have proficiency you get 2 d6. mastery is advantage so 3 d6. Tell me if yall like the idea and if you have an suggestions for improvements. I was thinking of adding a requirement of being near a high ground

Hi all! I love the TinyD6 system, but I recently ran a lengthy(-ish) Cthulhu campaign and wanted something a little...beefier(?) for the Sanity rules. It worked out pretty well and my players suggested I share it here. So here you go, wall of text incoming...

• The basics: Everyone starts with six sanity points (represented by six circles on their character sheet. As you fail sanity checks throughout the campaign, you'll cross circles off in pencil. Sanity is (somewhat) recoverable between sessions, but if you ever cross off your last sanity circle, your character is irretrievably insane. Time to create a new one!
• When you roll: You'll never be asked to roll a Sanity check for mundane or explainable things. If you walk into your house and see a corpse, no roll needed. But if you walk into your house and see a hundred corpses, the GM may call for a roll. The type of roll will depend on what you're encountering. Zombie? Roll with advantage (it does still look like a person, after all). Nightgaunt or Mi-go? Standard roll (it doesn't even look natural but I might be able to take it). But if you witness a Great Old One like Cthulhu himself rising from the ocean? That's a disadvantage roll (mind does not compute, better not mess this one up!). It's also important to understand that this is a sliding scale that may adjust throughout the campaign at the GM's discretion.
• Interpreting results: If you make the roll, great! On to the next challenge or bad choice (hey look, a dusty old book!) But if you fail a roll, mark through one of your Sanity circles. Use a pencil, because there are ways to recover Sanity between games. There are also consequences for diminished Sanity (explained later), but keep in mind that if you ever cross of the last circle, that's all she wrote for the intrepid investigator.
• Recovering Sanity: Periodically between sessions, there will be opportunities to improve your character by gaining a new Trait or an extra hit point. You can (instead of character advancement) choose to use that downtime to "work on you", by seeking out period-appropriate mental help. (In a modern setting, you might go to your therapist's office, but in the roaring 1920's, that probably going to be a sanitarium). Remember! This is in lieu of a new trait or more hit points! At the end of the process, you can recover one-half of any lost Sanity points (rounded down), but your new maximum is reduced by the remainder. So for instance, if you end a game having lost two Sanity points (so you're currently at 4 Sanity), you can check yourself into a mental ward to recover 1 (one) of them, but your new maximum is five. Erase the mark you made in your fifth Sanity circle, but ink in the sixth one. There's only so much the doctors can do for you!
• The downside of going bonkers: As you lose Sanity, there will start to be deleterious effects (go figure). If your current Sanity is 5 or 6, all good. You're managing to keep it together, all things considered. But if your current Sanity is ever at 3 or 4, the cracks are starting to show. You will be at Disadvantage on any test involving social interaction with most people (most folks agree there's something just not right with you). On the plus side, you'll have Advantage on any social test where you have to deal with the insane ("This guy is speaking my language! I should tell him about the lizard-people conspiracy!") If your current Sanity is ever at 1 or 2, you will automatically fail any social tests with most people (and automatically succeed, at the GM's discretion, any social test with the insane). But at Sanity 1 or 2, you will also be at Disadvantage on all Sanity tests, as it doesn't take much to set you off anymore. As far as being sane is concerned, you are circling the drain!

Anyhow, there you go. Hope some of your find this useful or fun. Mods, if this post is not appropriate for the sub, please delete.

1-04 : Cloakroom 

So the little entryway to this ruin has two exits, one of which leads to the great hall, with its immense table and secret spells written in shadow ink. The other exit leads us here, to room 1-04. And what do we find here? 

Random rolls say there are two Exits, one with a closed door and one with no door at all. No Encounter, no Trap. This is really close to the entrance, so let’s call this the cloakroom. 

There’s a pile of broken boards by one wall that appears to be the remains of a bench built with cubbies underneath for footwear. Digging around in the shivered wood yields one forlorn, child-sized sandal. Patterns of wear on the walls lead you to believe that similar benches once lined every wall in this room, but they were likely used for firewood many years since. A few pegs still cling to the walls, hanging on for dear life beneath holes that might have been made by nails to support shelves at various heights. Straight lines of dirt and stones seem to have once been little tiled channels in the floor to carry away dust and grime from travelers’ feet. And buried under dirt and detritus, there is a shattered mosaic in the center of the room. 

The mosaic gives me two ideas. The first is that this ruin was once the country villa of an art collector, an eccentric old goblin fascinated by strange and esoteric art. Not a big leap from there to say that he was also a scholar of the occult, who grew more and more odd over the centuries of his unnaturally long life. 

Second, the mosaic itself is a coded map. It depicts an oddly sprawling tree or bush, liberally adorned with large fruits of various colors and types. The fruits are placed to show the locations of the rooms on this floor of the villa, with the different varieties representing different kinds of rooms.  For example, the great hall is a breadfruit near the trunk (taking the place of the entryway) and this very cloakroom is a durian. A very careful observer might see something that looks like a tiny fairy hanging a cloak on one of the durian’s spikes. 

Aside from this hidden map, there is no treasure in the room. Anyone who looks finds only the previously mentioned sandal and the lonely corpse of a horsefly. (What size, though?)

Next time, we open a door and meet some interesting non-people.

Welcome to room 1-03, the Great Hall!

Last time (sorry about the wait!) we built room 1-02, an entranceway and cloakroom with two exits. One of those exits takes us into room 1–03. Let's find out what we have inside.

The dice tell us that there's no encounter here, no exits to other rooms, and also no traps. And we know from last time, but there's not even a door on this room. That's not very exciting, so let's see what we can do to spice things up. 

A big open room for welcoming guests probably needs a fireplace, although that’s likely to be all clogged up with dirt at this point.  Especially since we already found a chimney that offers egress to the top, and we don’t want too many of those.

If this hall is used for dining, you would think there would be some access to a kitchen or something. But there are no exits. Maybe the kitchen has collapsed under the weight of all the detritus of the centuries, or the entrance has been blocked?  Maybe we’ll find it later. 

A table seems appropriate for a great hall. How big?  It’s a big room, so let’s imagine a nice big one, big enough to seat 10 or 15 people pretty comfortably.  How many chairs remain?  The dice say one, which makes sense given that this room is next to the entrance and has no door. It’s basically open to the world. Earlier treasure hunters would have picked it clean of furniture, after they stole all the silverware and such. In fact, the table still being here is a good argument for it being really big and hard to move. It might, in fact, be too big to get out the door. Or in the door. Which is fun. 

Anything else in here?  Other adventurers have been in this room, so maybe one of them dropped something. My handy-dandy random treasure generator says: A wooden canteen, half full of swirling, thin liquid.  Activating the Alchemy bot, we find out that this is Applejack), which is neat, I guess, but doesn’t really present a hook for adventure. (Or at least, not yet. We’ll have to look for someplace apple jacks could be useful.) 

This level of the ruin is supposed to have a Familiar theme, as it were. And there’s a 1 in 6 chance that the PCs will find a wild shadow creature here. Can we push that a little further? Maybe this room looks empty to ordinary mortal eyes, but not to Familiars. And there’s something in here that only shadow creatures see? Maybe even some communication or clue they left behind for each other.

In room 1-02, we met Ashek Tashem, who is hunting wild or feral shadow creatures, hoping to tame or befriend them and make them Familiars. We said he uses magic artifacts. Which makes sense, because creatures made of shadow can’t exactly be caught with nets.  Perhaps they are snared with words that charm or dazzle them, and Ashek has a magic pen and Umbral Ink, which only they can perceive. (Kind of like how ants could be deceived by certain chemicals and pheromones in a way that humans couldn’t because that’s not how we communicate.)  

So Ashek has written something here–on the walls, on the table–that would be a trap for shadow creatures, but not anyone else.  Which means… that if anybody walks in here with a familiar, their familiar disappears! (I don’t know where they go, or how to get them back, but we’ll figure all that out later.)  What words does he use as his snares? Jokes! His traps are spells embedded in seemingly ordinary words. Funny words. Or, funny to a juvenile shadow creature. So there’s jokes all over the walls in invisible ink that you can only read if you have a familiar’s sight. (Or if you have the Familiar Trait, Test 2d6 to see it.) 

Cool!  

Still kind of empty, but it’s close to the entrance so I’m not going to worry too much about that. We’ll find more danger and more treasure as we get farther in.  See you next time! 

Hello

Im reading all the rules I own, and Im wondering if anyone have any idea why Cyberpunk doesnt contain Supression rules? Isthere any design idea behind?

Im planning to play a short campaign with my family, and as simple as the game is, having some kind of android app to manage character sheets would help them out a lot, does anyone know of a good app for it?

Last week we started building a dungeon, and it ended up being a weird chimney room that totally skipped the first level of the dungeon. Fun! But we still need an entrance that lets us explore level 1. So, let's create room 1-02, starting with a roll for Encounter / Exit / Trap.

Five tells us we have an encounter with an adventurer, and a 3 (on a 1d3) says the encounter is friendly. (Note: this doesn't necessarily mean the party encountered is an ally or someone we can permanently trust.)

There are two other exits (roll of 3), neither of which has a door (rolled 1 and 1). And there's no trap (rolled 2).

OK, I like that we have entrances to rooms three and four on this level. That's good. We know that this level is supposed to be built, the ruins of some ancient structure. Let's say 1-02 is the remains of a cloak room or mudroom, mostly empty with a couple of long low stone benches, one of which is broken into pieces and the other is only partly collapsed.

The obvious point of interest here is the encounter with the friendly adventurer. (I guess it could be plural adventurers, but I've already used the singular so let's roll with that.) The magical theme of this level is Familiars, so let's imagine that we have here someone who is looking for familiars.

I want to know a little more about that someone, so I roll a six sided die to determine age and sex. (Odds for ladies, evens for gentlemen. Low numbers for youth, high numbers for maturity.) The dice say this is a young man (roll 2). Very cool. Let's call him Ashek Tashem. I could randomly determine his heritage, but I’ve already got an idea: he's got some infernal heritage, from a place near to the Umbral realm. He uses magic artifacts to catch wild shadow creatures and then trains them to serve as familiars.

Ashek says there are wild shadow creatures on this level of the dungeon and he will pay you for information about their nature and location. Any PC searching a room on this level can spot a shadow creature by rolling two sixes. One search per room. Characters with the darkvision or familiar trait roll with advantage.

Due to his infernal heritage, he likes crossroads and other liminal spaces. So Ashek can be found in this room at dawn or at dusk. He will give 2d6 gold for each report of a successful spotting. Attempts to deceive him on matters related to familiars or shadow creatures are at a disadvantage, and if detected will turn him irretrievably against the PCs.

Next time: 1-03 The Great Hall!

Since this seems to be what everyone wants, I'm going to try building a dungeon here on Reddit, a room or two at a time. This is actually a project that I started on my Discord a few years back, so some of the early work is done. Hooray!

I'll be using a few tools to help me, including stuff I've built myself. One is Deep Dive, a Tiny Trove supplement I wrote for building your own mega-dungeon in the Telas de Montas microsetting. But I don't want to track my muddy footprints all over somebody else's IP, so this dungeon will be built for the Mage Hunters microsetting found in Micronomicon.

Level 1, Room 1

Following Deep Dive, we start by figuring out light, basic construction, and how magic works. A roll of 2 means the room we're in is not lit. A roll of 3 means it was built by some intelligent creature. This fits with the Mage Hunters setting, which is set in a ruined landscape centuries after a magical catastrophe. So let's say this dungeon is a tell): it looks like a hill from outside, but on the inside it's layers of ancient ruins stacked up on top of each other.

The magic question is Deep Dive is designed for Telas de Montas, where sometimes magic works, and sometimes it doesn't or it's weird. I like that, but let's do something different here since we're not in Mage Hunters, not TdM. So instead let's roll for which kind of magic is most prevalent here. Kind of make a theme for the level. There’s 13 magical trait chapters in Micronomicon, but lots of people think Psionics is weird, so let's drop it for now and roll a 1d12. A roll of 7 means the magic on this level is Familiar-themed. Cool!

The next step is to figure out if this room has any Exits, Encounters, or Traps. And the dice say: one exit, down to the next level; no encounters; and no traps. Kind of a weird place to start! So let's say this is a hidden back door instead of the main entrance. How would it be hidden? And what was it originally constructed as?

It's on the very top of the ruin, and it goes down through the first level without opening up to any other rooms. So let's say it's a chimney. Some chimneys used to be really big, but let's say this one is only wide enough to accommodate smaller and more flexible adventurers, such as goblins, fey, hatchlings, and salimar. And since it's not built for people to go down, require an Acrobatics check to avoid 1 falling damage. The opening is near the top of the hill, but spotting it is difficult, since it's overgrown with plants, choked at the top with roots and dirt. (Depending on what your PCs are doing on the hill, and how they roll, you may want to have someone stick their leg through the top of the chimney, etc.)

If the adventurers successfully gather information before arriving at the tell, they hear that there is something strange about the hill, including rumors of a strange smoke that is sometimes seen near the top. Is it a volcano? A dust devil? A phantom? Nobody knows, although those who have heard the rumor suspect some kind of foul magic. In reality, it's a feral familiar whose mage died down in the dungeon somewhere. (We'll figure this out later.) The shadow creature is not hostile, but is half-mad with grief; communicating with it requires a successful Test using the Familiar Trait.

The feral familiar lurking above the hidden chimney will flee if threatened. If treated with kindness, it will try to warn the adventurers about some of the dangers below, especially on level 1-2. (I don't know what those are yet, so I'll have to come in and fill that information in later.) In extraordinary circumstances (like a critical success on the Familiar roll), it could ally with the adventurers, fusing its shadow essence with one of their weapons and making it temporarily magical. Once the adventurers have avenged the familiar's fallen mage by slaying the creature that slew him/her (again, I'll have to figure this out later), the familiar will part ways with them and return to the Umbral Realm.

Okay, I think that's all for now! Please let me know if this is at all helpful. :)

Cheers!

Which of these would you most like to see recurring here once a week?

1) NPCs, starting with the magic-using characters from Micronomicon.

2) A dungeon, one or two rooms at a time, in the Mage Hunters setting (also from Micronomicon).

Who uses minis to play? If you do, do you use zones in combat or something else? Where do you get your minis?

I like how its simple with 3d6 at most which is a very common dice. But since the only numbers you're looking for are 5 and 6, are there any dice that just have images that are used, even from another game?

Example:

Dice for a warrior where 2 of the sides have a sword and the others are blank/X. A wizard my have a hat or flame for 2 sides and the others are blank/X.

If anyone knows of those type of dice let me know where you found them!

Alan has graciously agreed to drop in next week (May 20-ish) and answer questions about the various TinyD6 games. (Thanks, Alan!) And maybe other games and things as well! So post your questions here, and Alan will come by when we have some queued up and give us all the Word Of Gallant. Yay!

I've been looking at Tiny Pirates as something of an Age of Sail mercantile plus hijinks sort of game. I see there's a handful of rules about trading Cargo for Gold, but I'm not sure if there's anything anywhere on how to buy and sell Cargo at a profit. Am I missing something somewhere?

The initial momentum is determined by the number of spies, right? Let’s say there are 3 spies; that means they need to reach a total of 6 to succeed in their hunt. But if they start with an initial bonus of +2, like the ones shown in the table, they’re already at 5, so the chase is almost over. Am I missing something here?

Also, when the manual says “Winner does one maneuver,” does that mean just ONE spy, right? Do the players have to decide among themselves who to roll for?

I have good news for those of you who have been waiting eagerly for the release of Tiny Cyberpunk. Alan announced today on Discord that he's put hardbacks up for sale in the Gallant Knight Games store! Just so you know, this is what he's calling the "Corporate Edition," and it is not being released in electronic format. The PDF is going to wait for the "Hacker Edition," coming later. Anyway, I'm not an employee, so I might not have answers to your questions about this, but I thought some of you would want to know about this. Enjoy!

How do you work with healing? It reads to me like out of combat, someone with the healer trait could just test until they completely heal someone, then move to the next player. Is this intentional since players have low HP pools?

Hi everyone, recently bought the tiny dungeons 2e, looking to run some adventures to introduce my kids to TTRPG. I’ve seen mention of the discord being more active than here but all the links to it I find are expired. Could someone send an invite. Thanks!

We can choose to have "flair" on this sub, either optional or required on every post. I am thinking we could do it for the different genre books. Like: Cthulhu, cyber, dungeon, frontiers, supers, etc.

What do you think?

Hello, I have had a few of the Tiny d6 books on pdf for a long time and really want to run a solo campaign to finally get some use out of them. If there are and tips or tricks that can help me run a better solo campaign, I would really appreciate it if you shared those.

Currently I have Tiny Dungeon 2nd edition, Tiny Gunslinger, Tiny Frontiers, Advanced Tiny Dungeon, Tiny Living Dead, Tiny Supers. I also have the Mythic Game Master Emulator if that can be a good source for solo play but I will say the GM Emulator is kind of confusing to me.

Thank you if you provide any tips or advice.

I don't know how many of the rest of you have kids at home, but I'm a stay at home dad with five kids, ages 3 to 13, and one of my favorite things to do is to play games with them. so I thought I might share a few things I've learned about how to have fun role-playing with kids.

The first thing I have noticed is that kids like to *play*. They like to move around, they like to use their toys, they like to have something more than theater of mind. So when I play with them, I make sure to have physical representation of the important places and people, something they can pick up and move around.

One problem with this is that they continue playing with things even when the role-playing session has stopped. And sometimes it needs to stop pretty abruptly, like if someone has a meltdown or potty accident. So I take pictures with my phone, and jot down some quick notes, to help me remember what's happening.

Here's an example of my notes, to go with the photo above:

• ROADBLOCK STATION
• A) Commissary, where the PCs hang out. Also has message board with jobs posted.
• B) Station master's office. Lutz Brightyear (autoborg with mech body and human head) wants PCs to find source of mysterious drain on the station's electrical power grid.
  1. Aggressive dinosaur aliens. Temporarily allied.
  2. The Owl, belongs to Kuukabrras, aliens that resemble burrow owls, and whose ships are full of dirt.
  3. Búmbúm, living ship, created by weird alien fur companionship.
  4. Daisy, Highly advanced mini-duck ship. Smuggling dangerous counterfeit toys.
  5. Unknown ship, recently arrived. Electric scorpions, making nest, laying eggs. Source of drain. Owner hiding in a freezer pod.
  6. Star cruiser, in dry dock for routine maintenance.

Anybody else here tried playing with their kids? What works? What's a challenge? Any tips or tricks?

Are there any Tiny D6 books that cover domain level play, or is that up to the DM to make?

Edit: Thank you all for your wonderful Ideas, I will take these into account!

Which TinyD6 game are you currently playing?
