This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Whitehack has the best magic system.

If you have a spell called "Practical deflagration" then you can use it for stuff that sounds like what it is cheaply. So idk lighting a campfire is maybe 1HP, setting someone's closes on fire is maybe 1HP. Throwing an orb of fire that explodes is further from the wording, so maybe that's 3 or 4 HP (figure it out at first use).

Flexible, on hand, rewards player creativity, balanceable in play. It's good shit.

Especially when you get to stuff like "my class is combat linguistician and I cast conjugate"
