As a long-time gamer, I've always struggled to wrap my head around the role of gods in fantasy settings in which magic exists. Is their power derived from the same forces that govern magic? Are they the authors? Do they wield powers beyond those available to the magically inclined? Tell me friends, how do you handle it? #ttrpg

@SJohnRoss in a recent game, the "Builders" were creation gods-- aloof, uninterested in the machinations of mortalkind. They entrusted elves with the language of magic. The elves were tricked into sharing it with humans, violating their sacred covenant. As punishment, the Builders flooded the world and departed. No gods. The "faithful" pine (in vain) for their return.

Now watching Better Off Dead, which I haven't seen in years, because @vincew brought it up in a comment under my post about The Last Starfighter

@Tim_Eagon @vincew I watched this with my daughter two weeks ago. "Gee, I'm real sorry your Mom blew up, Ricky."

It's the impossible-to-find Easter eggs that make my life as a near-forever DM complete. In a recent #TalesfromtheLoop session, the map of "Emerson Middle School" I gave my players was, in fact, the actual floorplan of the school I attended 1983-1985-- John T. Baker Intermediate School in Damascus, Maryland. I didn't even tell them. It was an Easter egg for me and me alone! My games are RIDDLED with this kind of beautiful bullshit. Please tell me I'm not alone in this habit. Please? #ttrpg #genx
