If you have ever played a TTRPG, or partook in a campaign, you likely have a few stories on times you really got into it. Those moments are vital and important to the TTRPG experience.

House rules are a staple of the TTRPG genre. While the rules are useful and are what makes a system, changing the rules to better fit what your group wants or needs is integral to the true TTRPG experience.
In this episode, we review houserules from reddit, possibly providing rules alternatives, and new ideas, These are, of course, just our opinions.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the bartender is taking a long rest via Gritty Realism Rules (DMG pg. 267), and so it's just the Tavernkeep! Alone, in the dark, the Tavernkeep has decided the best way to spend the time is playing a TTRPG, specifically a solo TTRPG called Bloodless!
A vampire at the end of his wits, just hoping to make it home before sunrise, Simon Beldevon has to try to navigate a troublesome night. Will he make it to his safe-house, tomes in hand, or will he become a victim of the very thing he was an essence of, the darkness?

Where did it all begin? Was there a time before time itself? What was the great prime cause? Why are we here, and why do we exist at all?
We have no idea how to answer those questions, but in this episode we'll discuss session zero, which is sort of the same, right? We discuss what a session zero is, what it's for, why you should use it, and how to use it!
