Raz al'Ghul once said that theatricality was a powerful agent. I agree! As gamemasters, we often strive for subtlety when we should be striving for larger than life, exaggerated descriptions to really impress upon our players the meaning of a moment and frame a situation in the highest possible contrast to make their choices more meaningful.

Let's take a look at this demo of an RPG room stocker app for Android, as posted on the Lizard Man Diaries blog. My 2 cents: there's nothing particularly wrong with the tool though it's a very YMMV situation depending upon your prep and play style. That said, I love the output of the tool as presented by the blog. The Frozen Slime Palace is a great, interesting location.

This is my weekly round-up (or in this case a make-up sesson) of content that is making the rounds in the OSR role-playing game community on Reddit. I grab posts that look interesting, explore whatever they offer, and discuss them with the folks in the chat.
Every episode, we manage to uncover the curious, the interesting, and sometimes very useful stuff that our fellow OSR gamers. Who knows what we'll find this time! Watch the video or, better yet, join the live stream to find out!
