Gene Pool Diver: Genemods For Mothership

 In the space fairing, future humanity was faced with one massive problem humans evolved on earth. While we may be able to create artificial gravity in empty space making an artificial gravity field large enough to encapsulate a planet is far beyond what is possible with current power generation technology. We soon used our mastery of the genome to create humans capable of withstanding various gravitational forces, it was not long until we looked at other problems and fixed them with genemods as well.

Now what a human looks like is much broader than any time before in history both oral and recorded. Here are but a few of the variations of humans found amongst the stars.


Why use genemods over cybermods? 

The genemod is far less invasive than any cyberware surgery and therefore has far less of a recovery time, it can also save time and effort in the long run if you know generations are going to be living in a place where this adaptation would be useful. 

Of course, cyberware is still the go-to for tasks not found anywhere outside of the capabilities of the natural world.

An unfinished script for a video review of wanderhome

  This was written months ago in a single day it is unfinished and messy and needed to be revised but it was such a release of emotion that I left me satisfied emotionally but not intellectually. I haven't worked on it in a long while so have fun reading this unfinished script. Introduction It is early May 2022, the State of Texas has passed a law classifying parents who let their transgender children transition as child abusers, and requiring the forceful outing of all transgender children to their parents. Soon a game bundle to raise money for transgender advocacy groups in texas is put together on itch. After supporting the bundle I looked through it to see what was included and saw wanderhome. A game I had been recommended in the past but have never picked up. Wanderhome is a game published by Possum Creek Games in April of 2021. It was written by Jay Dragon, illustrated by Letty Wilson, and Sylvia Bi, and layout out by Ruby Lavin. Editing was done by Ruby Lavin, Luke Jordan, a...

Bay of Birini

I have recently started work on a bronze age lost world style setting called the Bay of Birini. It's a hex crawl over a 50 x 50 mile area. It uses a bunch of shit from other people because it's a home game thing so I am not gonna post the hexes because a chunk of them are written by other people. Instead here is the plain map and the hex fill procedures that used for the making of it!   Roll 1d24 1-2      Obvious Feature 3           Hidden Feature 4           Obvious and Hidden Feature 1d4 Settlement Monster Lair Weird Dungeon Settlement Roll 2d6 and multiply the results  1     Hermit 2     Thorp 3     Village 4     Village 5     Fort 6     Fort 8     Town 9     Bandit Holding 10     Town 12     Town 15     New Imperial Outpost 16  ...
