Sometimes you've gotta take received wisdom in tabletop RPG design and do the exact opposite on purpose, just to see what happens. I've got a vaguely superhero-adjacent RPG I'm working on right now that flips the whole "the player characters' actions should never result in an NPC's death unless that was their explicit intention" thing turnways and makes it literally impossible to engage in physical coercion of any kind toward another person without some non-zero likelihood of accidentally killing the target in the process, and let me tell you, it's resulted in some fun "okay, how are we going to do this" conversations.

As my groups resident DM this is way too relatable.

The sleepless night I have suffered for these fools...

Nothing to see here players...

Ugh, Vampires. Ruining perfectly good blood by mixing it with wine."

(Would this count as a one use ranged weapon with Necrotic damage?)

"I've heard of the Holy Spirit, but this is a little ridiculous."

I have Ideas... Mostly, how long would it take to brew & age a 9'th level spell, say True Reresection.

Was a DND character I was working on trying to determine color pallet Right just before the shit went down with the "Open license", Going to try and resurrect them for Pathfinder or other games. There a Dullest Dex fighter with a Charlatan background.

"Do not drink deeply, you greed may be greater than most, by the ocean is endless" Wow, 7 pictures in 7 days, And with one being a color swap with additional details would that make it my "Eventful Eight" ?

"Even spirits like a good drink, just make sure that you clean the pot out after its done, no one likes the texture of ectoplasm in there chamomile"

"A shield said to be a long dead noble family's crest, even now there spirts still haunt it driving any wilder to slaughter any mages they come across."

More game Items, Semi inspired by the Looking Glass Knight from Dark Souls 2.

"Some seek Leprechauns for there gold, more knowledgeable adventures know it much easier to catch and sell rainbows as a perfume."

More Watercolor stuff, tried crystal but it didn't come out as brightly as I wanted it to, oh well.

More Watercolor/Painted TTRPG Items, this time a Djinn’s Lamp...

"Despite what many would think, a Djinn's home is a sacred thing. The Rings of a Ruler, the Swords of the Generals, and yes even the Oil Lamps of the common. But be wared that some are better left not being let out, for the Ifrit only seeks revenge."

More Digital Watercolor testing, use a mixture of painting with it so it's not quite "Pure". Still experimenting with things...

"The amber liquid swirled with a forgotten magic as the dull light danced around the infuser. Even now, the power of the lotuses' remains is self evident."
