Tabletop Rpg posts, content, and recruitment posts.

Recruitment posts should contain what system is being played, CW for any adult/serious themes players need to be aware of and whether a game is beginner friendly.

An obvious reminder of no racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.

Emphasis on small independent rpgs like the ones in the TTRPGs for Trans Rights in Texas but not against dnd stuff.

What are your player's weaknesses? (hexbear.net)

PC and monster weaknesses are very easy to look up and apply, but finding out what the actual people at the table will fall for is a lot harder, so what have you noticed your players always get pulled in by?

My players are incredibly vulnerable to single small foes. If they peek in a room and see one creature that's mechanically small or tiny, they have absolute confidence that they can quickly finish up the encounter and call it a day. It never works. It's always an overlevelled single boss that stomps them from the word go and kills a PC before they flee or kill it at the last possible second.
