Welcome Back to the Table! This week FA gets back into the conversation about how the TTRPG community and hobby space are being used by many, including adults to find, form and grow meaningful relationships. The unique setting, collaborative and repetitive interactions of playing at the table reveal strong, safe and lasting friendships for many gamers. The newest generation also finds the hobby a safe and preferable alternative to traditional dating circles and methods. After the break, Arcadia drills down to some of the specific work being done in showing social and behavioral impacts of using TTRPGs in therapeutic manners. Science has stepped forward with an agreement that there are measurable benefits, and now the work of anchoring those measurables and pinpointing applications is beginning.

Welcome Back to the Table! This week we dive back into the World of Darkness to offer a beginner’s guide to two more factions of VTM lore. First, Tori breaks down the Setite offshoot of The Ministry. A vampiric plague of sorts, spreading the corruption of sin throughout modern nights. With roots and relation to the followers of Set, this group of kindred sew malice and vice through the Anarchs and have terrifying reptilian powers. After the break, Arcadia gives us a beginners guide to Clan Lasbombra, a hierarchical meritocracy where only the strongest wield power. With no regard for lineage or status of station, these power brokers and leaders have all the organization and presence of the Camarilla’s Ventrue, but no interest in legacy promotions. If you want power, you take it. If you can’t hold power, you are not worthy of it. Enjoy these great introductions to dynamic and fun playable clans at your table.
