#RPGaDAY2026 – Day 11: Tact

The Kind GM – Tue, 11 August, 08:30 PM

Here’s the thing. I don’t remember any character that really had tact. And it’s simple, really. We usually remember things that cause intense feelings, either good or bad. That means you may remember a character that did something that really frustrated you. Or someone who said something that had yo... read more.

Bat in the Attic – Tue, 11 August, 03:07 PM

Pity the Blue Orc

Prismatic Wasteland – Tue, 11 August, 12:44 PM

If you’ve only ever seen an orc who’s green, you must have nice stuff.

It is true that when orcs are sufficiently motivated to leave their hol... read more.

How to Make Haggling Fun

Roleplaying Tips – Tue, 11 August, 02:19 AM

“I despise haggling. I’d much rather have a bot handle it.” – A GM on the RPT Discord I hear that. Yelling numbers at players isn’t fun.
