So I think I'm looking for an TTRPG system that would essentially run a soap opera. Rules light is a plus, really something from the old "one-page rpgs" would probably be perfect. I want to focus on the narrative part and have a simple resolution mechanic that's favors social encounters because combat isn't part of the game.

If you guys were about to run a soap opera game, what would you reach for?

As requested, we have an old lighthouse by a cliffshore, inhabited by two masonic gargoyles who seem to be working on something....big.

I wanted to link the different floors of the light house together rather than just having three circles arranged and labeled. Overall I'm pretty into it. I hope you guys like it too.

So this is a set of maps I made for my party's adventures on a small island nation, nestled on top of a dormant volcano

The furthest out map shows the island's nearest neighbors, the supposedly uninhabited Burning Keyes, which are still active volcanoes.

The second map shows the largest of the cities/communities on the island.

The third is a close up of a trek they had to make through the central part of the island in search of a secret entrance to a lost temple.

Ask me anything about the islands and I'll give you the lore. Ask me something I don't know yet and I'll make it up. Anybody that wants to use these can, and is free to gleam lore out of the comments if they want.

Hey guys, I'm looking to get some practice in this week and would like to help out the community in the process. Reply with a battlemap you need, I guess regional maps would be ok, but I want to keep them to small enough areas that the details will still be useful. I do like playing with the lighting, so I will likely include that in most of them. Obviously if this gets super popular I won't get to every request, but I'll prioritize based on upvotes and my interest in the request.

What do I need from you?

1. Dimensions, how big is this map?
2. Setting, is it in a building, a mine, and big open field?
3. What are you using it for? This one is a little more abstract, but if I understand why your party is here I can try to make the map work better for your purpose.
4. What NEEDS to be there? Tell me what you want to see on the map. Is there a campfire in the northwest corner? How about a statue on the west wall to hide a secret passage? Corpses littering g the floor? Or rotten vegetables left out on the kitchen counter?

The more you tell me about the last two questions, the better I can do for you. I'll post all of the completed maps here and on the battlemaps community associated here. My plan was to post them to lemmy with a back up on imgur linked to both gridded and non gridded versions.
