VICIOUS PRINCES Alpha 20 is up!


Wow wow wow Alpha 20. What an arbitrary milestone. Head to the carrd to pick it up!

As always, thanks for checking it out; please don't hesitate to DM me on twitter or find me on Discord if you have any feedback.

Here's an incomplete list of changes in Alpha Version 20:

  • Wealth has been rewritten to hopefully be a little clearer. 8.1 is where the majority of this effort went.
  • An extra box in Section 16 and some additional text in section 13 to encourage trying the web out as a method of organization.
  • A new rival, Keve Kornel, with thoughts on running Great Lord rivals.
  • Various itty bitty devils unleashed across the pages.

VICIOUS PRINCES Alpha 21

Two princes in a vicious fight about where to order takeout You know the drill: new update, new notes, new effusive thanks for the interest. This one is mostly here to include a big ol' example of play. Check it out on the carrd!  Here's an incomplete list of changes in  Alpha Version 21: A new section, 24: Example of Play , walks you through part of a day of action at the table--it's more or less the cliffs notes version of a session I had just the other day. New art for Section 17! An overhaul to the SCHEMING section--same rules, just a different attempt to tackle the language. Next time I'll hope to have the final example rival, and then the core book is basically feature complete. I'm also hoping to take one last pass at the traits...

Rival: Arpad Budai, Prince of Amber

Image
Rank 5: Lord The House of Amber Arpad Budai’s mother was gentle and kind. But she dreamed too often, and too boldly, and Zarkany is no place for the dreams of a glass-blower’s daughter. When his fellow nobles make awkward conversation with him at the parties into which the Prince of Amber muscles his way, they hazard sometimes a guess that Arpad–risen as he is from the deprivations of Chalktown into the halls of the princes–is living a dream come true. But Arpad Budai is not his mother; he is not gentle or kind, and he never dreams. Arpad Budai’s father was tall, broad, and strong. Arpad would be, too, if his father had lived, and if his mother hadn’t taken the bottle as her consolation. But he didn’t, and she did, and Arpad Budai is not his father; Arpad’s physical heritage was overwritten by the starvation’s stunting quill. Hunger robbed him of at least a foot. He walks like he's as tall as nature intended. Arpad became the Prince of Amber two weeks ago, by slitting the throat of...

Translate this dungeon

Image
I've been using the splendid MRMOTEXT lately alongside Playscii to make dungeons. The character set is supreme stuff for quickly making some beautiful dungeons, but it lacks letters in its character set. Any that I understand, at any rate. I invite you to take this map and use it in any way you see fit--it just needs a little bit of translation first. What you come up with is bound to be more interesting than anything I could have written. @ me on Twitter or on Discord (I'm in the usual stomping grounds there) with what you come up with!
