Putting science easter eggs into my campaign for players who are chemists/biologists has me thinking about making some chemistry flavored ttrpg content for the blog. What kind of stuff would people be interested in?
There are a lot of directions I could take it. Useful chemicals your characters could probably find, laboratory uses for cantrips, alchemical workshops, etc

People, especially games, get eldritch madness wrong a lot and it’s really such a shame.
An ant doesn’t start babbling when they see a circuit board. They find it strange, to them it is a landscape of strange angles and humming monoliths. They may be scared, but that is not madness.
Madness comes when the ant, for a moment, can see as a human does.
It understands those markings are words, symbols with meaning, like a pheromone but infinitely more complex. It can travel unimaginable distances, to lands unlike anything it has seen before. It knows of mirth, embarrassment, love, concepts unimaginable before this moment, and then…
It’s an ant again.
Echoes of things it cannot comprehend swirl around its mind. It cannot make use of this knowledge, but it still remembers. How is it supposed to return to its life? The more the ant saw the harder it is for it to forget. It needs to see it again, understand again. It will do anything to show others, to show itself, nothing else in this tiny world matters.
This is madness.

For all those scientists who also play D&D; if you could have any cantrip to use in your lab what would it be?

I feel like there's not enough love for the delightfully silly and mundane parts of worldbuilding, like using your superpowers to heat your coffee, or navigating the subway station in a city of monsters without getting your soul sucked out through your face hole.

Reblog this if you're a writeblr and you wouldnt mind:
Random asks about your wips
Being tagged in tag games by people you don't know yet
Strangers complimenting your work
Fellow writeblrs striking up conversations
Interaction with new writeblrs in general
I see so many folks afraid to jump in to the community, so hopefully this post will lay out like a welcome mat for new folks to come say hi :)
