RPGaDAY2025 Day 15: Deceive

Written by TardisCaptain

Day 15 and about half way through the RPGaDAY 2025 Challenge. Today our topic is ‘Deceive’ and it’s another one that’s just a little too vague. I was even talking with the geek wife about this as we were driving home from a date hoping to get an inspiration for an idea. I’m going to twist this one on it’s Vulcan pointed ear for this post.

Sometimes the best play comes at our RPG table when the characters have to stay within certain boundaries of the character. One that was self-imposed or set within the game itself. The characters can and will find ways around the boundary while not crossing it directly. A common trope on this is the Star Trek race Vulcans and their reputation for not lying. For example, check out this page from the Star Trek novel, Collision Course.

There are numerous examples in the show where a Vulcan had to deceive another in order to accomplish a goal. Consider the following quotes.

“It is not a lie to keep the truth to oneself.” Spock- The Enterprise Incident, Stardate: 5027.3

“Names, Lieutenant.” Kirk “I do not remember.” Valeris “A lie?” Spock “A choice.” Valeris- Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Stardate: 9521.6

As you can see, there were ways to work around this in different situations. Don’t be afraid to place these boundaries on your players. They will look at them as a challenge to get around.

Additional Feedback: I received the following from LexTenebris on Mastodon in response to my Darkness post.

@TardisCaptain There are two things that are important to know about ShadowDark. Firstly, it is a very old-school design with high lethality, but a surprisingly light mechanical touch. Secondly, the real-time torch mechanic is something they tout very aggressively. Now, as I remember, the default time span before the torch burns out is 30 minutes of real time. He may have been going easy on you as newbies. Personally, I don’t particularly care for the real-time connection because it feels not just gimmicky, but like it gets in the way of doing things in the game that would make sense but don’t really connect up with time as it passes. You absolutely have to be hardcore about demanding time be one-to-one between the dungeon and the players for this to hold together. It’s just too fiddly, in my opinion. A better implementation of pressure from oncoming darkness is found in the Ironsworn supplement, Darkest Delves (https://jaderavens.itch.io/darkest-delves). It uses the already extant weak hit and miss mechanics in Ironsworn to essentially be one of the things that causes the torch counter to tick down. You have a lot more connection with what’s going on in the game space that way.

What do you think? Have you experienced a challenge such as not being able to lie and deceive? Tell me about it. This article is open for discussion on the TardisCaptain dot Com Discord server. You can also email me at Carl (at) TardisCaptain.com with any comments.

RPGaDAY2025 Day 10: Origin

Written by TardisCaptain

While driving around a thought hit me for my Day 10 entry for the Day 9 of the RPGaDAY 2025 Challenge. If you’ll indulge me, I’m going to describe the origins of my little corner of the internet. This didn’t start out as a roleplaying blog, but as a way for me to gain some joy in this world (and share it as well). Originally I was going to use this like the old LiveJournal that was popular many moons ago. As I detailed in my very first blog post, I was planning to talk about anything that popped up in my head. And I did get a few different posts in here and there. But I noticed from the metrics that the bulk of my visitors enjoyed my roleplaying game posts. And I also noticed that I enjoyed talking about roleplaying games than trying to turn this into my private social media site. I gravitated more and more towards just RPG posts. Sure, every once in a while I scratch the itch with other geeky blog posts. And later I discovered that I could mirror the Daily Star Trek Quotes posts that I organize on a weekly basis.

There are a lot of visitors who come by every January when I run the Character Creation Challenge. These RPGaDAY posts are also popular. My reviews are getting a lot of views (and I’ve had a few people reach out to me with additional questions afterwards). One of the most popular posts has been my review of the RPG Dice that I Picked up from the Dollar Tree. I just received an email just a few weeks ago from someone who wanted to respond to that article. My convention posts have also provided both entertainment and feedback. I also really enjoyed sharing my past RPG homebrews for FASA starships and the characters that I had kept in a three-ringed binder from my early days of gaming.

I do have some pages (not blog posts) that I’ve put together. These cover the FASA Star Trek RPG, Dungeons and Dragons and many different photos in the Photo Album.

So, what do I want to do with this blog? Well on the RPG side I have a few themes in mind similar to RPGaDAY and the Character Creation Challenge, but without the monthly time-table. One would provide examples of combat in fantasy RPGs. Another theme would talk about how the different Star Trek and Sci-Fi RPGs handle certain situations. I did set up a TardisCaptainDotCom Discord server. Besides interacting with readers, I want to have a “Questions for the Blog” to publicly answer questions that fellow geeks might ask.

On the non-RPG side I want to give more reviews on some of the various books that I’ve got in my reference library. Details on the magazines and comics that I’ve collected. Displays of the autographs that I’ve been able to obtain from actors, astronauts and athletes. I want to fill out the other sections that detail some of my interests. I need to get my latest photos up in the album. But, the bulk of my blog posts will be about the different RPG that I experience. As I said when I started this blog, I wanted to get some entertainment out of it, and if I can help provide to entertainment to others, then it makes all the better.

I have received some feedback from past RPGaDAY posts. Phil H on MeWe responded to the entry on Journey by telling me about a D6 fantasy campaign where the characters had to go on a long journey. This campaign ran for 2.5 years. When it came to the post for Explore, Phil H commented how he enjoyed the 1st Edition of Star Trek Adventures, but used some of it with the Captain’s Log version of the game.

What would you like to see on my blog? RPG or non-RPG, I’m open to suggestions. Tell me about it. This article is open for discussion on the TardisCaptain dot Com Discord server. You can also email me at Carl (at) TardisCaptain.com with any comments.

RPGaDAY2025 Day 9: Inspire

Written by TardisCaptain 1 Comment on RPGaDAY2025 Day 9: Inspire

And here we are on Day 9 of the RPGaDAY 2025 Challenge. Today we are talking on the prompt ‘Inspire’. What inspires you not only with roleplaying games but in general? Well for me I find that quotes are inspiring. You may have seen all the Star Trek quotes that I post every Monday. Most of these are inspiring or entertaining and I share them daily on two social media websites (Star Trek Quotes on Mastodon and Star Trek Quotes on BlueSky). A short phrase that may mean something to different people at different times.

But there is one quote that I wanted to use to inspire my fellow geeks. It’s primarily about science fiction, but it could easily be associated with gaming. It is as follows…

“Science fiction is the fiction of ideas. Ideas excite me, and as soon as I get excited, the adrenaline gets going and the next thing I know I’m borrowing energy from the ideas themselves. Science fiction is any idea that occurs in the head and doesn’t exist yet, but soon will, and will change everything for everybody, and nothing will ever be the same again. As soon as you have an idea that changes some small part of the world you are writing science fiction. It is always the art of the possible, never the impossible.”

This was spoken by the famous sci-fi author Ray Bradbury. When I read this, it struck a chord with me. I talked about Exploring different roleplaying games in yesterday’s challenge post. A different system is a new idea, a different way to cook up the meal, a different way to do something. Perhaps the game itself is not so great, but the system sparks an idea. I’ve had a few of these hit me while I was using the system in the Character Creation Challenge. I’ve wondered if I could take the inspiration from these ideas and turn them into an RPG system? At a minimum, get it to the beta phase where I try it with a few other players.

I just need to get off of my duff and do it.

What has inspired you? Is there a quote that has spoken to you when you read it? Tell me about it. This article is open for discussion on the TardisCaptain dot Com Discord server. You can also email me at Carl (at) TardisCaptain.com with any comments.
