from Blogger. The interface is archaic and unpredictable, the platform is limited in capability, and as a free Google product, <a href="https://killedbygoogle.com/">it could get 86'd at any moment</a>. But I've just built up a certain momentum, and even when the activation energy of blogging is too high, the costs of switching seem incredibly higher.</p> <p>The real issue for me is that the drafts I keep locally never exactly match the finished versions that get pushed. Every post has two or three versions, and none of them would allow me to rebuild if I lost them all.</p> <p>So I'm moving to <a href="https://blot.im/">blot.im</a> for now, which also gives me the flexibility to eventually switch to Jekyll or a self-hosted instance or anything else with minimal effort.

I have not yet found it for sale outside of that. The PDF is 36 pages, written and illustrated by Guy Potts. It includes &#8220;standee&#8221; paper miniatures for all of the monsters and monks.</p> <p>UPDATE: You can now <a href="https://pottsguy.itch.io/le-monastre-de-saint-gastronomie">buy the game on itch</a> for $7.50!</p> <h1>The System</h1> <p>It comes with a light set of rules that would be easy to swap out, but it would be a shame to do so entirely. The core of these is three stats, roll-over stat checks, a neat little initiative mechanic, and so on. But it also has three key elements that make the system feel tailored to the adventure: miracles, sins, and the timeline. I would consider grafting these subsystems into any game I ultimately used.</p> <p>As all the characters are monks, there are no class options, spell lists or starting equipment. But there is magic! Before starting, the GM makes a secret list of specific miracles (&#8220;create a spring,&#8221; &#8220;bring a statue to life,&#8221; etc.). Characters can pray freely, and if they happen to ask for a miracle on the list, once per monk per campaign, that miracle is granted. (14 miracles are provided to start, with space for four more.)</p> <p>Similarly, the GM is encouraged to create a list of &#8220;sins&#8221; (perhaps modeled on existing religious ideas). (Even without a list, certain actions in the module are defined as sins.) Whenever a monk sins, that player marks a circle on their character&#8217;s sin-o-meter. Then, the GM rolls 3d6, re-rolling one non-6 result for each sin marked. If the result is &#8220;666,&#8221; then each character takes a permanent damage. Characters who die this way are especially dead. I think this is a fun and thematic way of handling morality. It allows for a lot of luck-pushing and emphasizes the religious nature of the characters without punishing them outright for making hard choices.</p> <p>Finally, the whole game takes place over 28 days, so time taken to heal or travel becomes important. This also informs the other two mechanics in their scope: players may choose not to &#8220;save&#8221; their miracles or may be more reckless with their sins, given this limit.</p> <h1>The Campaign</h1> <p>The adventure provides a compelling amount of direction for a sandbox. The characters are summoned by a dying monk to stop the current abbot (Pierre the Pious) from summoning an angel of death to purge the world of sinners, annihilating France. To do this, they need to recreate the three traditional products of the abbey under the old abbot (Reynard the Rotund): beer, wine, and cheese. Then they must barter them with local monstrous factions in exchange for their support in the coming battle.</p> <p>The adventure is seven hexes with the monastery at the center, and each hex has an overland map and an underground dungeon. Three hexes house the monstrous factions and three hexes contain the supplies and equipment the monks will need to reproduce the recipes and arm themselves. The whole map is full of connections and secrets.</p> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2vhRF_AJgqFMDk_RzgnF8OaMvE1lwObZ2JUHkQWC3O0H2cA8ruUZPnB5dHwS_JPfTFt7nDB1u7ZvNzyxIIiX3__5c3SvMMYBKDlilzpwZOfMBmsZfSsIM9q8SjAX7sNzWIilmCEi5JjswwvGd_LLuG03dNgHp-BnWfe8RhccVbH2CSS-dkgN2ETnl/s666/Werewolves_of_Ossory.png" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="552" data-original-width="666" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2vhRF_AJgqFMDk_RzgnF8OaMvE1lwObZ2JUHkQWC3O0H2cA8ruUZPnB5dHwS_JPfTFt7nDB1u7ZvNzyxIIiX3__5c3SvMMYBKDlilzpwZOfMBmsZfSsIM9q8SjAX7sNzWIilmCEi5JjswwvGd_LLuG03dNgHp-BnWfe8RhccVbH2CSS-dkgN2ETnl/s320/Werewolves_of_Ossory.png" width="320"/></a></div> <h1>The Good</h1> <p>The adventure exudes charm from the art, the tone, the scope. The included system is elegant, as are the mechanics found throughout for dungeon elements, puzzles, social interactions, traps, and so on. (To be sure, the art in this review is not the style of the art in the book, which all matches the cover much more closely.)</p> <p>It claims to be targeted at absolute beginners, and I believe it. It&#8217;s friendly in tone and well-considered in many small ways, from using only d6s to laying out the maps in a radial manner (so that they are easily covered by simple fog-of-war effects, or even sticky notes). In particular, I appreciate that it provides many opportunities to fill in some blank spaces, but it never feels incomplete without them.</p> <h1>The Bad</h1> <p>The adventure sits in a weird place as a drop-in. Not too much relies on the players being monks, so you could drop other characters in pretty easily. (If you&#8217;re the planning type, you could even have them meet Brother Bartholomew beforehand.) But the climactic battle seems like an end-of-campaign event that would be hard to continue after, and the tight timeline doesn&#8217;t leave much room for side-quests. It&#8217;s also slightly too long to run as a one-shot.</p> <p>I&#8217;d like to know more about Pierre and his ritual. The book mentions that he will be out of town if the players think to kill him. But it&#8217;s unclear if the ritual could be prevented some other way. Does it have to happen in the palace? (Then could Pierre just be kept out?) Is timing important, or is Pierre just too busy to cause the apocalypse right away? (Then could he be delayed or misled?) If this is a <i>Watchmen</i> scenario, why bother keeping him away on business? Ultimately I&#8217;m not too worried about this because the draw of supernatural agriculture is probably pretty good and the clues leading to it are plentiful. But I do expect these questions to come up.</p> <p>For all the interweaving and jacquaying, the PDF would benefit from hyperlinks, but it is short enough that it&#8217;s OK without.</p> <h1>Conclusion</h1> <p>I was expecting a short adventure, but instead I found a small world, full of character and innovation, with well-crafted support for its unique size. I wish I could tell you to buy this, but it doesn&#8217;t seem possible at the moment. I&#8217;ll update this if that changes. (UPDATE: This has changed! you can now <a href="https://pottsguy.itch.io/le-monastre-de-saint-gastronomie">buy it here</a>! I recommend it!)</p> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixdLez9E6TvKAKX78WqU6X07JAEMhP0zfAExyGAx_Q0E-6Kv6O3aqIrZHckMMXautZIEjyhv1qshBM8YHjLmoeWWiMfm1TlzWoR8Zx472NP5G8qxDMfJb2J1f8ah34U95V8-t7gGSa9ySS8MdL-mrEckOa8vUYdyXvMQsZ_ejW88gWBzAD2THvRDFd/s399/Cistercian_monks_at_work.jpg" style="display: block;

A valid invitation must:</p> <ul> <li>be written in ink. Some frequent visitors even tattoo their invitations, although this is considered gauche.</li> <li>state the parties invited. The scope can be specific ("Jane Doe") or broad ("the bearer of this invitation") but must be somehow limited in number ("with a retinue of not more than seven") and time ("before the feast of St. Alouicious in the year 2003").</li> <li>be signed. An invitation will not work for the person who signs it, even as a plus one.</li> <li>be written (technically, only signed) inside the Palace.</li> </ul> <p>Present your invitation to a guard or doorman at the entrance to any building and convince them to open the door for you. When you pass through, you will arrive in a random (but consistent) room of the Palace. (Some people claim that the guard must "announce" your arrival as part of the ritual, but this is in fact unnecessary and increasingly old-fashioned.)</p> <h1>The Servant's Entrance</h1> <ol> <li>Find a coin on the ground that is not yours and which you did not see drop.

Maybe they really like you and they'd go so far as to sacrifice for you.</p> <h1>Counterpoint</h1> <p>These guys are Gary: they look down on you and just by chance know all your weaknesses. It's not that they're better, they're just accidentally your worst matchup. And they'll take your girl/guy/job/reputation.</p> <h1>Sucks</h1> <p>Anything these guys do, anyone else could do better. These guys are you, half a campaign ago. Maybe they're fans! Maybe they're impostors!</p> <h1>Done</h1> <p>After you have everything you want and settle down, you might become these guys. Of course, anything that risks the status quo might stir them from their comfortable retirement.</p> <h1>Gumptionless</h1> <p>If you were to give up or turn back, you might become these guys. They'll fight to stop anyone trying where they've failed before: after all, they know it's no use.</p> <h1>Immoderate</h1> <p>These guys will cross every line you've ever drawn. They'll betray allies, fight dirty, lie, cheat, steal, kill, all of it.</p> <h1>Rich</h1> <p>This crew didn't earn their strength like you. They bought themselves tools and influence. They took shortcuts and their power is consequently brittle. Tools fail, followers defect.</p> <h1>Alternative </h1> <p>These doppelgangers just did small things different.

On 15 Dec 2020 I significantly revamped the material and, as an experiment, changed it to PWYW. (Although as before, <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1js6znXlq4LSpo9VXJV4cHJfmJ2aTGVAY/view?usp=sharing">an unmonitored free download</a> was always linked from here, after some early complaints about getting downloads from itch to work.)

I do not know how much information it is appropriate to share about the numbers behind that, but it contributes $8.88 of revenue. These sales are accounted for as a separate product by itch.</p> <p>As easy as it is to put things on itch, getting your money back out can be complicated. You will have to choose <a href="https://itch.io/docs/creators/payments#payment-modes">one of two payment modes</a>: direct or payouts. In direct mode the money goes straight to you, but you are responsible for record-keeping, taxes, chargebacks, etc. In payout mode itch handles all of the overhead. Itch recommends payout mode, and I use payout mode, and despite the complications, I would still also recommend it.</p> <p>Upon selecting payout mode, you will need to complete a one-time tax interview process (it's just an online form) and identity check. This costs $3, which appears as a debit on your itch account (not as an up-front cost).</p> <p>Seven days after a payment is completed, it becomes available to you as a payout. Payouts are delivered either through PayPal or Payoneer (I use PayPal and so cannot comment on Payoneer). PayPal takes a fee from the payout, which in the US <a href="https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/merchant-fees#paypal-payouts">appears to be a flat $0.25</a>. (The "payout fee" is distinct from the payment processor fee, which I think is the fee charged for the initial purchase.) I think this may have changed between my first and second payouts, as the fee is not present on the first one.</p> <p>While requesting payouts less frequently will minimize these fees, leaving earnings in your itch account for longer than a year will result in itch charging a monthly 10% maintenance fee on the balance. However, at least when I started writing this, it is not possible to initiate a payout on an amount less than $5. This meant I awkwardly had $3-4 sitting in my account for a long time, and because of the seasonal (and low-volume) nature of my project, could not access it.</p> <p>Because I hadn't requested any payouts during the 2020 tax year, I didn't receive any tax documents for it. Itch did not automatically withhold any taxes for me, so I expect I will have to pay taxes on what remains this year. Given the US dedication to the worst possible tax system, I have no idea what that may come to, but I'll estimate local tax at 5% (arbitrarily) and federal tax at 20% of the remainder (also arbitrarily). Since both these numbers are entirely made up, I don't think the error introduced by calling it 25% is significant.</p> <p>Itch lets you configure what percentage of revenue you want to share with them for their services. The default is 10% of gross revenue, which sounded fine to me, so I left it.</p> <p>We can also consider the other costs of the project: <a href="https://www.fontspace.com/festival-font-f30958">a font a liked a lot</a> ($10), and an old Dover clipart book, purchased c. 2000 (maybe $4?). If we don't value my time at all (my friend insists this is what makes a "real game developer"), that's $14.</p> <table> <tr> <td>$39.88</td><td>gross revenue</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$4.65</td><td>payment processor fees</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$3.97</td><td>itch revenue share</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$3.00</td><td>identity verification</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$0.25</td><td>payout fee</td> </tr> <tr> <td>=$28</td><td>payout</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$7</td><td>taxes (estimated)</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="color:Red">-$14</td><td>costs</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>=$7</b></td><td>profit</td> </tr> </table> <p>As bit of fun, I have no regrets about the project, and I remain unreasonably proud of it. There's a lot I could have done to try maximizing profits that just doesn't appeal to me, so this is not a perfect look into "the business," but I hope a little light on such an intricate and hidden part of the hobby might be instructive to others.</p> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://pixabay.com/photos/coins-calculator-budget-1015125/" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1920" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhoVmnVbJvXxjudgr0QAVTgcLL_Nk2EiHk7kYnJ6nUkuKWRJ905PkpYYz315UWF7owT8RmMF4P6K2R01fKXUcVkz9iCiKkC4ZzrRTrHlALn22Z21PqsHNma8Yz6CRokeKq4t4Azc997v7z0bfawu2QSDZR1xMAhT4Kx9ZWu872s453jX1NpkA0dUJyf=s400" width="400"/></a></div> <p>Best wishes to you and yours going into this holiday season, and if you haven't had a chance, I'd love for you to check out Crisis on Christmas.
