Conlang Stuff

(Originally posted at Silver Does Stuff)

I’ve uploaded the newest version of the Nyjichun wikis! There is now one for the grammar and one for the lexicon (aka, all the words). They are SO a work in progress and are full of notes to myself and half-finished stuff.


In addition to that, I recently made a twine game for a jam on itch.io. I redid my conlang Tynthna. It now has actual IPA sounds and a few more words than it did before. And lots of sound recordings! Which may or may not be accurately said! (when in doubt, the orthography is canon). You can play it in your browser on itch.io.


That makes three conlangs that I’m sort of currently working on: Nyjichun, Tynthna, and Ie. I’ve also done a tiny bit in Ylis (the language of the Thunderian capital) lately, because I needed to be able to say Thunderian for on A Heroic Moment without actually referencing Thundercats. (It’s Lunderka for singular and Lunderkusa for plural – and that’s literally the only words I have for it right now, because the old version was from before I knew what IPA was).

Games!

Becoming Familiar - You and your fellow players will portray crows trying to cheer up a sad witch. However, since you are crows, your methods for a) discovering what’s upsetting the witch and b) helping her with her problems are seriously limited. In fact, you run a constant risk of misinterpreting her human feelings, and nearly all of your methods of help are considered criminal by human standards.

Capybara Capers - A super elite team of capybaras has been assembled to steal the mythical Awesome Lemon once and for all. But each of you have your own motives... and there may very well be a traitor in your midst. Can you afford to trust one another?

Cementville - you're wizards in a small midwestern town trying to make things better.

Crash Pandas - You're a bunch of raccoons, all trying to drive the same car, looking to make their names in the dangerous world of LA street racing.

Every Day's A Battle - The war is over. You and a few companions are heavy-conversion combat cyborgs built for the previous war, ill-suited for the new peace. The military has removed your weapons, leaving just your mix of mechanical & fleshy body parts, and pointed you to a job placement service. That service, in turn, has found you positions in basic office and clerical work. Every day is still a battle, just not the kind you were built and trained for.

Giving Up the Ghost - This is a rules-light wacky game about ancient evil overlords trying to hide in their old age among fellow old people in a retirement village. However they all quickly become bored and form a Mystery Club to solve old people crimes. Things tend to go a bit off the rails quickly as failure is unacceptable and they tend to fall back into their old ways to get things done, and necromancy has pretty noticeable side effects!

Kintsugi - Play as a Robot, Mutant, or a Magical Golem; someone who can't die and quickly learns new skills or abilities. Simple but elegant rules allow you to create your characters as you play, building them up one failure at a time.

Liturgy of the Dragon - you're kobolds. The dragons you worship are gone. What does your church do now?

Trashkin - Play a half-possum, a goatgirl, a raccoon-man or a ratboy and plunge headfirst into a grotty world full of low-calibre adventure for fun and no profit.

Wizards - Wield ULTIMATE POWER in WIZARDS. A simple game that needs only 2 to 5 victims, a d6, possibly a hat, and a healthy disregard for the rules of nature.

I want to try running one of the many weird / funny / unique tabletop rpgs I've downloaded off itch.io, but I need people to play with. I'd like to run them on Google Hangouts, Skype, or (possibly) Discord.

I've managed to narrow it down some. If you're interested, let me know what you'd like (pick 3), where you'd like to play, and what mode (text, audio, mixed). I'll post descriptions and links in the next post, because Dreamwidth is being a GIANT PAIN. They're all free / pay what you want. Some of them might be image only, but I'll reformat anything needed.

You can also just tell me what you want, here or on Twitter or whatever.
