Default Attention RPM Aficionados and fans

With complete appreciation I must do a little shameless promoting for any gurps Ritual Path Magin fan. Whether you are a long standing fan, are new to it, or are just curious, Ghostdancers blog and Patreon page is the “go to” destination for Rpm rules, spells, and system tweaks, IMO.

Additionally, as a fan of Ghostdancer’s writing style I find it a great source for game ideas, or GM help. Since sadly Pyramid is no longer, stuck down in the prime of its life...(a moment of silence please shall we)....however not all is lost, one of its main contributors is still active and continues to provide great information on his page. Ghostdancers blog is supplying some great daily, weekly, and monthly posts on all types of Gurps related things, not just RPM, as well as creative writing.

So today, after reading his post, I was inspiried to write this recommendation. For a few months now he has been posting a GM “behind the scenes” write up of his Rpm world; Ceteri. For those that have ever wanted to run a “Urban Fantasy”, secret magic, Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Supernatural meets Carnival Row meets Magicians, meets your imagition, yet did not know a good place to start your game, his site could jump start this for you, as it did for me and my players.

Over the last many months his write ups have been pure inspiration to read. Even though I have been running for over 30 yrs I found new points of view and better ways of doing things in my game from reading his posts. Today I realized the benefit his posts have been to my gaming, as well as the void they fill for Gurps, and I got inspired to share this with you all.

Just twitch your eye once if Ghostdancer has your family hostage or is threatening you with blackmail materials...


Just kidding. Yeah, GD has been the go to guy in RPM almost since the beginning despite it having been PKitty that wrote it.

No...everything is fine. I’m fine. Everything is all normal ...(looks around).....HELP ME! He has my cat!

Lol

Ya I know how it sounds... but I was working on my game and realized how much his stuff has helped shape it into the what I was happy with. So I was inspired. And of course, a shout out to PK as well for your major part in rpm as well. Well done sir! I have become a rpm convert.
