GOOD EVENING, AVOCADOS. YOUR NIGHT THREAD HEADER IS BEHIND THE CUT.
On this day in 1890, at 9 AM, gifted author and terrible racist HP Lovecraft was born in Providence, Rhode Island. Mr. Lovecraft often affected the manner of a Georgian gentleman, and pretended to be a neurasthenic esthete, but he was a robust man, given to tromping around in the woods in rubber boots with his friends looking for haunted caves and spooky ruins. Let us argue today not about his skills as a writer, nor about his racism and what it means to enjoy his writings, but today, let us argue about his favorite foods. HP Lovecraft loved Boston … Continue reading Howard Phillips Lovecraft Birth Day Thread

D&D divides all human ability into six stats – Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. Since it got there first, these six stats have defined how we think about innate abilities for over 40 years. Even though what those six stats MEAN has been slightly different in every edition – Wisdom being the worst offender. Sometimes it’s “common sense”, other times it’s “perception and attunement to surroundings”, other times it’s a vaguely defined kind of “willpower”. Even game systems that consciously strive to get away from D&D seem to start from D&D’s basal stats. Old World of Darkness gave … Continue reading The Tabletop RPG Thread Rolls 3d6 six times
