I have broached the Black Cube and started to read the #InvisibleSun #ttrpg. Hopefully it won't turn out to be a very expensive mistake.

I had many lovely hours discussing and playing some wonderful games in the last weeks. I should really find the time to write about them here.

@laidbackdm I had an edition of Greyhawk before this and first will always be my alma mater. Greyhawk was the first time I kept a campaign journal of travels moving from adventure module to next adventure module. And I adore the maps. Others include #Numenera, #Glorantha and the #invisiblesun . And home game types where we've built a map: #thequietyear and #legacylifeamongruins

"Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" is a song by the British rock band #thePolice from their fourth studio album, #GhostInTheMachine (1981). The song, notable for featuring a pianist (uncommon in Police songs), dates back to a #demo recorded in the house of #MikeHowlett in the autumn of 1976. It was a #hitSingle that reached the top of the charts in the United Kingdom (topping its predecessor, "#InvisibleSun") in November 1981.

And just like that, it's over. For those of you that want to watch the whole journey from the beginning, it's on YouTube for posterity at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzOghx1xRXgNSPmAb5HpdEbwORb5zK8yY. To my wonderful cast, it has been a blast working with you on this project and I look forward to starting the next one in March. To those of you who might be on the fence about Invisible Sun or running a campaign? Just do it. It's the most incredible game and I've enjoyed every minute.

Two things I love about @mcg's products is both the quality of the settings and outstanding game accessories. You would have never convinced me 10 years ago that I'd enjoy using a campaign notebook like #InvisibleSun's Guiding Hand. Or that I'd fall in love with using card decks to introduce randomness to my sessions. Or hell, that I'd love a character portfolio as much as I do.

Seriously, if you're running an MCG game, get some decks. The cypher and ruin decks for #Numenera are my faves.

Monte Cook’s wild Black Cube for #InvisibleSun is back, on BackerKit for a couple weeks. Worth checking out for fans of weird games, horror games, or both.

well, all those other Invisible Suns were fun but my topic was the rather exotic body, complex, dynamic, sometimes explosive, revealed when we view it in ultraviolet and other forms of non-visible light. Spectacular, isn't it? #invisiblesun #solarphysics #astronomy

Invisible Sun has been used, probably often, as a book title. We might highlight the 2019 novel by Edinburgh-based science fiction writer Charles Stross. '...two versions of America are locked in combat.' Doesn't sound like sci-fi at all. https://www.panmacmillan.com/authors/charles-stross/invisible-sun/9781447247623 #invisiblesun

'Life is a pure flame, and we live by an invisible sun within us.' - Sir Thomas Browne (1605 - 1682) in Hydriotaphia, Urn Burial. #invisiblesun

Invisible Suns: seems there's a desktop role-playing game by this name, '...of surreal fantasy, secrets, and magic that is truly magical.' One person in my audience had actually played it https://invisiblesunrpg.com/ #invisiblesun

Invisible Suns: Madame Helena Blavatsky, founder of #Theosophism, apparently believed there was a second Sun hidden beyond the one we see. #invisiblesun

it was a pleasure to join my friends at the Astronomical Society of Glasgow at the Launch Party for their new Observatory, ETMO, last week https://theasg.org.uk/index.php/all-articles/207-observatory-official-opening-saturday-30th-september-2023 I spoke about the 'Invisible Sun'. These words combine nicely and I'm far from the first person to use them. Typing #invisiblesun I discover this hashtag is used twice per week. What are all these invisible suns? Apart from The Police, of course!

After our #InvisibleSun game had to be canceled yesterday due to our GM being a horribly good person who cares for his goddaughter, @Ghulgrube kindly GMed a #StarWars #EdgeOfTheEmpire game for @catrinity, @tinofalke and me.

We were in Maz Kanata's castle/cantina when an Imperial cruiser appeared in orbit and told us that someone in there had stolen cultural artifacts and the whole place would be vaporized if the thief wasn't found.

So we looked around and wondered who here could have something like that. Answer: Obviously everyone. We had a fun mix of GM- and player-invented scoundrels and villains of all kinds who we could trust to escalate the whole thing if we didn't act.

In the end, we managed to figure out who was selling and who was buying the artifact, distracted the buyer, bluffed the seller, got the artifact, realized it was something Force-related that shouldn't find its way back to the Empire and switched it for a vaguely similar item. We then figured out who among the locals was actually an ISB agent, stunned her, grabbed her credentials and used them to frame her as the thief, with my droid posing as an ISB intermediary handing over the "thief" and the "artifact" to the arriving Imperial soldiers.

Considering our GM had about one evening to prepare for the game *and* incorporated our spontaneously invented NPCs into a cool closed room scenario with lots of escalation potential, an amazing amount of fun was had. Also, the usefulness of a gamorrean bachelor party as a distraction cannot be overstated.
