Blog this and blog that!

First of all, here's a treat - I am changing the language of the blog from Swedish to English, as the more perceptive of you have already deduced. For so many reasons, the primary being to make it accessible for a wider audience of my friends abroad... Yeah, I am speaking of you in Poland, Holland, Egypt, the States and so on. I should think that the swap will be beneficial and that it won't cause any problems for anyone interested in reading - if so, just leave a comment and I will make sure to personally ignore it... I mean consider it!
Needless to say, my speciality during photoshoots has always been to angle my motifs towards horror. Well, no angling required with this bugger, I should say. Here's the true stuff of nightmares, even with the funky eyebrows solely for comic relief...

Presently, I am dwelling in limbo, awaiting the latest news on the job offering I have had. One of the more important decisions in my life to make, and well, there are others occurring at the same time. Such as Vendela moving in. That's a big one as well, and also at a bit of a standstill. Studies, another one. I expect to have news on the behavioral science-program I intend to study briefly, during the end of the week. So... it's like life is drawing breath to begin anew during the week.  Fully intend to get back to the subject soon enough... 

Cooking has always been something of an interest for me, if not a calling. Still, I don't really have the stress tolerance to go into it full-fledged, so I stay at dabbling. But I fully intend to share some of my creations here. Want the recipe? Shout out! Or leave a comment, that works too... 

Speaking of cooking, today was a strange day. I claim illness and stay indoors all day long. The snow is heavy on the balcony, having piled up on the furniture outside, and also fully covers the skylights, so it's like living in a snow cave, with all my white empty walls. When you're sick, you're allowed to do what you want, I hear, so my breakfast and lunch consisted of potatochips with some dip. Still, I pulled myself up to finish with a flourish, so the day ended with some deer, grilled potatoes and a salad. Didn't snap a picture of that, since the result was slightly akin to a pile of vomit. Leftovers remain for tomorrow...

Enchance your roleplaying

Always remember that someone is watching.  Enhancing your roleplaying Some challenges for the avid GM Improvisational-style challenges are fantastic for fostering creativity and quick thinking, as well as providing a new depth to connection between the player and the character.  Encourage spontaneity. Force players to react to unexpected situations without overthinking. This can help stay in character and make authentic decisions on the fly, without optimising their thoughts.   Foster collaboration. Players should build on each other's actions and cues and ideas, creating a shared narrative that is richer and more dynamic.  Character depth. By focusing on emotions, physical actions or hidden motivations, the player can help himself get a stronger sense of who the character is, beyond the stats on the sheet.   Problem-solving under pressure. High-stake situations requiring the players to solve problems creatively without relying to pre-planned strategie...

Mål och Moralkompasser

Mål och moralkompasser Hur använder man materialet?  För moralkompassen, ange siffan för vilken personlighetsegenskap det gäller, och sedan 1 till 10 för var på skalan karaktären befinner sig. 1.1 betyder tex en med lägsta möjliga samvete och 5.10 är en som håller sanningen i högsta möjliga aktning.  Moralkompass  1. Samvete. Visar på nivån av aktning man visar för samhällets normer under rådande tid. På den lägre änden så går man från att vara rent ohövlig till att bli mer brottslig och samvetslöst kanske våldtar, mördar och rånar. På den högre änden så är man artig och lyder inte bara lagen utan "vad som är rätt", såsom seder och normer.  2. Arbetsmoral. På den låga sidan har vi latmaskar som undviker arbete till alla pris och kommer alltid försöka få andra att utföra jobbet åt dem. Kan till och med gå så långt att riskera liv för att maska. På den höga sidan har vi de som utför sina plikter med vigör, som fyller sina dagar med aktiviteter och träning och underhåll...

Enhance your roleplaying part II

  Enchance your roleplaying part II tricks of the trade I was listening to my favorite RPG podcast, "Ain't Slayed Nobody" and was reflecting on the interplay between the character and the player. The pod has a lot of improvisational focus and the players are almost always extravagantly skilled at this concept.  Building on each other  One of the major rules for improvisational theatre is one a good player and Gamemaster should internalize as well - Don't say no! Say yes, but... and add to the story.  If other players are attempting to use something against your character, the natural impulse is to feel degraded or overruled and to resist. Experiment with allowing the manipulation, and allowing that to add to your character. I was listening to one pod where one characters was humorously ganged up on and had his pride destroyed, as the other characters sedated him and put parasites on him, resulting in the sedated character wetting himself with the relaxed bladder cont...
