Heya Everyone, new Mega time and for it, I'm gonna advertise a TTRPG system called Thirsty Sword Lesbians.
A sword duel can end in kissing, a witch can gain her power by helping others find love, and an entire campaign can be built around wandering matchmakers flying from system to system.
Thirsty Sword Lesbians is a roleplaying game for telling queer stories with friends. If you love angsty disaster lesbians with swords, you have come to the right place.
In this book, you’ll find:
Flirting, sword-fighting, and zingers in a system designed for both narrative drama and player safety.
An innovative take on the Powered by the Apocalypse family of games.
Nine character types, each focusing on a particular emotional conflict: Beast, Chosen, Devoted, Infamous, Nature Witch, Scoundrel, Seeker, Spooky Witch, and Trickster.
Guidance and support for running the game, including how to make appealing adversaries, set the tone, pace the game, and structure play.
Tools to create your own settings and stories, alongside a dozen pre-written options including the cyberpunk Neon City 2099, steamfunk poets battling oppression as Les Violettes Dangereuses, laser swords and intrigue in the Starcross Galaxy, and more.
World building worksheet for custom scenarios and starting scenario seeds to play with: Best Day of Their Lives, The Constellation Festival, Gal Paladins, and Sword Lesbians of the Three Houses Variant rules to highlight different identities, emotional connections, and setting elements.
Strategies to adapt any setting where swords cross and hearts race for Thirsty Sword Lesbians.
Here's a link to their website, I did copy everything over directly from it because I put off writing the Mega this week. I was drawing a blank on what I wanted to talk about.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

I know!
One night, me and all my coworkers were taking HRT. I'm trans, one was menopausal, and the other had a radical hysterectomy. We all were taking estrogen! One of my coworkers was always more of a tomboy, more butch, less femme than I am. She was misgendered plenty of times. Another passes less often than me despite being cis (I saw her give birth lol) because she's taller, has a deeper voice, etc. One of my coworkers complained that she got a form email that referenced her as they/them - I told her "first time getting misgendered huh"
The feminine ideal is a very patriarchal concept, at least as it's currently constituted. Because the ultimate archetypal trans story that also influences how our healthcare is "supposed" to be done is you socially transition, you take HRT, you get surgeries including SRS to comply with the feminine ideal, and then you get a cis boyfriend or husband and then you are "complete."
Apparently cis men hold the keys for if we're women or not, which is total bullshit. I'm a woman single or dating someone who's trans, or dating someone who's cis. But it's another story that's often something we say to ourselves "I'm not a woman until a cis man accepts me as a lover." Bullshit!
I'd be happy to get FFS or body sculpting, but that's for me not for people who look at me (but hey if it helps me get gendered correctly Ill welcome it lol). I'm in line for bottom surgery - but that's for me, not for a potential partner. I'm the one that has to live in this body and I want it to be how I like it.
Its so over
