Alchemy is the pursuit of purity, a metaphysical concept that is horrifying, as well as the foundation of much of modern science.
In this thread I will do some preview doodles of 4 (or 5) of the Trophy dark incursions that will eventually make up https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coldhearthcollective/alchemy-1?ref=clipboard-prelaunch , a project by @signalstation , myself, and some (very impressive) friends.
I'm on masto less, but that doesn't mean I don't care. I'm doing fine, and building places and things I'm proud of.
If you need me, I am here.
Some friends and I have a website up where one might purchase /actual physical copies/ of our RPG projects.
Candlelight: play a post-TPK party wandering as spirits, trying to maintain their humanity
Devil, Aim For Me: hunt a bank robber in a haunted Weird West setting and find your doom
So You've Been Tossed Down a Well: get back from out of that well
So if you didn't back my kickstarter, you may not know that I've published my game Climbing the Witch's Tower.
If you want spookiness and dark fairytale and tarot... check it out https://maenad.itch.io/climbing-the-witchs-tower
So I've done a little bit of games writing lately I guess?
Here's two incursions I wrote for Trophy Dark:
Something from Nothing, an alchemical bodyhorror thing I'm told is VERY gross: https://maenad.itch.io/something-from-nothing
Setting a Second Sun, a folkloric daytime desert horror thing: https://maenad.itch.io/setting-a-second-sun
They both have commnity copies available and I'm proud of both my horrible brain children.
Stream going live in just a minute with a Mörk Borg tabletop session! Tonight, a crew of wretches sets out for The Death Ziggurat
alcohol, houseguest, disappointment
our conversation ended with me yelling "I JUST WANT YOU TO MAKE EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY DECISIONS" at his retreating back which means it was PROBABLY not that productive in terms of actually changing anything but WAS cathartic.
alcohol, houseguest, disappointment
I've expressed this to him, and he's heard it but not understood it
he's like "I didn't get drunk so that I wouldn't be able to go" and I'm like "thaaaat's so far from why I'm upset you idiot I care about you"
alcohol, houseguest, disappointment
in the 10 days my houseguest has been here I've slept elsewhere twice
both times he's gotten problematically intoxicated
we had plans for yesterday to go into the mountains and have a day and he texted me at 2 AM that he was drunk and throwing up so couldn't go
I had fun without him
I am still hurt, exasperated, and disappointed.
Science goth who likes hugs.
