-This seems to be a nice and quiet place to have that cup of hot tea.
-Sure, I'm just wondering what that rhythmic vibration could be.

A round spaceship landed in a cream foggy planet.

Ok my guess is that the thing that actually brings Twitter down will be the extra load on the systems from everyone trying to use the data export feature as they panic about the ship sinking

With my recent small redesign and fancy printing (spot UV gloss!) I've had my #WalletDungeons generator bouncing around in my brain.

I'm already working on a derelict ship generator for my sci fi #cairn hack, but what other genres or locations would be fun for a different version of Wallet Dungeons?

Could be a simple reskin, or tweaking the generation rules to get different layouts.

Wallet Dungeons by AwkwardTurtle itch.io

Wallet Dungeons

Create the dungeon by rolling a handful of d6s and assemble based on results:

1. Dead End: Cannot touch more than 1 die
2. Passage: Cannot touch more than 2 dice
3. Split: Cannot touch more than 3 dice
4. Crossroads: Can touch up to 4 dice
5. Tower: Stack all, must touch at least 2 dice
6. Hall: Merge all, can touch up to 4 dice

For each die, add its value to all neighboring dice to determine its room. Halls and Towers are single rooms with all their dice summed.

3. Quarters
4. Jail
5. Sepulchre
6. Statuary
7. Store Room
8. Courtyard
9. Kitchen
10. Forge
11. Armory
12. Garden
13. Guard Post
14. Library
15. Arboretum
16. Crypts
17. Shrine
18. Gallery
19. Workshop
20-22. Temple
23-25. Throne Room
26-28. Laboratory
29-31. Menagerie
32+. Labyrinth

Place an entrance where it makes sense.

For extra detail, modify each room based on highest or lowest neighboring die.

1-3: Highest
2. Secret Exit
3. Trapped
4. Crumbling
5. Flooded
6. Damp

4-6: Lowest
1. Ornate
2. Pristine
3. Opulent
4. Hidden Alcove
5 Locked

Roll an encounter in each room:
1. Threat: Active harm
2. Obstacle: Passive harm
3. Nothing: A moment of respite
4. Nothing: A moment of respite
5. Opportunity: Obstacle + Boon
6. Boon: Helpful or valuable

Tower: Roll an encounter for each floor, then order them from lowest to highest.

Hall: Roll an encounter for each die in the Hall and combine them.

Reported as a casual encounter in a classified location near the border, this object followed an A vessel at close range before diverting course. No communication was attempted.
The A vessel crew felt funny at first, then extremely sad following the object departure.

I don't really know what the heck this rusty thing is, but at least it is a bit of fast sci-fi before ending the day.

Oh no, the memes are broken!

A variation on the "Doctor Doom toots as he pleases" comic panel, but toot replaced with publish.

So this is serving #indieweb #mf2 html on my page with as deep a stack as I like, and in my activitystream it's serving both misskey's old quoteUrl field and the new FEP-e232 format for the quote
