A challenge I pose to all who dare face it.

    There are a lot of worldbuilding challenges passing around, from Jojiro's orthodoxies to Vayra's ten setting question's we've got an abundance. Oh boy can I help. I've got my own method to step up to the ring with and it's one hell of a doozy. Design a world in 6 hats. As is traditional, I will go first.

1. A crudely made Ushanka hat with an actual hammer and sickly nailed to it.
2. A lightly bloodstained gas mask with a sticker saying "Safety First!".
3. A pair of night vision goggles with a metal plate guarding the back of the neck.
4. A blindfold with "DONT TOUCH" written in blood on the front.
5. A crown of scrap metal with a hole through the front center.
6. A very expensive pay-by-the-hour VR headset that just displays a warm green field.

    Mine were very short but had some description, obviously you can go as far as paragraphs on paragraphs or as little as the names. Happy harberdashing!

The Diastasi Mati

    The Diastasi Mati are people with one eye that can see from the fourth dimension. This is the only interesting thing about them. The rest is just details.  Physiology The Diastasi Mati are the same size and shape as ordinary people, with much the same internal organs. The exception is that they lack any internal or external reproductive organs of any kind. They still have sexual dimorphism, and they still reproduce, by unknown means. In all Diastasi Mati, it is the left eye that is peculiar. The left eye is a silvery grey, and reflects light wrong, sometimes reflecting light that isn't there, other times not reflecting light that is there. It is slightly bigger than the socket it is in.  The Eye The power of the eye is best thought of with a classic metaphor to 2D people. Picture a 2D person with one eye on their head, and the other 6 inches to the left of their entire world. This eye allows them to see the inside of anything within 100 feet, and see any other Diastasi Mati wit

Ghost Detective, a class that may or may not be for Buckets of Blood

This class is compatable with my own GLoG hack, and wasn't made with Buckets of Blood in mind per se, but I think it works well enough. The idea is like that game, Ghost Trick, or that game, Return of the Obra Dinn. You get to be a detective who interrogates ghosts and collects evidence from spooky ethereal crime scenes. Ghost Cop Gain +1 save vs fear per template Starting Skill: Forensics, plus one of Firearms, Tracking, or Law Starting Equipment: Small firearm, small other weapon, heavy coat, basic detective kit (3 slots, all sorts of little detective stuff like cotton swabs and magnifying lenses). A: Interrogation, Replay B: Question the victim C: Takedown D: Relive Interrogation When you make an attempt to interrogate information out of someone, you have [template]-in-6 chance of them telling you the truth. In addition, gain +1 for each of the following -You have evidence of their guilt in a crime -You have made a credible threat of violence against them -Y

3 Humanoids

Sick of boring old orcs, elves, dwarves, humans, halflings, gnomes, tieflings, svirfneblin, duergar, drow, aasimar, warforged, merfolk, golems, and all the other ones? Here are three EVEN MORE boring enemy/PC* races!  *The Travelling Mailsman blog is not responsible for damages sustained from letting players play any or all of these races.  VITALOIDS HD: As Human   AC: Unarmored Description A humanoid creature, roughly 5 feet tall. Its entire torso is a heart containing the rest of the thoracic organs, with veins and arteries for arms and legs. Its head, correspondingly, is a large brain with a brain stem for a neck. It has no visible sense organs, but can hear and taste extremely well. It communicates by a sort of very short range telepathy: It can telepathically communicate if your brains are touching. They typically settle in tribes of 10-20.  Disposition They are generally very peaceful creatures, and want to learn as much from you as they can. They politely gesture if they can ins
