In this episode of Epic Realms, Nick is joined by author and writer Kelli Fitzpatrick. Kelli is a science fiction writer, game writer, and teacher. She is the author of Captain Marvel: Carol Danvers Declassified (BenBella Books, 2025) and a contributing writer for the Star Trek Adventures roleplaying game from Modiphius. Her story “The Sunwalkers” won the 2016 Strange New Worlds contest from Simon and Schuster. Her short fiction has been published by Baen Books, Crazy 8 Press, Flash Fiction Online, and more. She also writes essays on sci-fi pop culture for outlets like StarTrek.com, Women at Warp, and anthologies from Sequart and ATB Publishing. Kelli has even written for NASA's Hubble outreach and Arizona State University's Interplanetary Initiative. On top of it all, she has more than a decade of experience teaching high school and college courses. We talk about her early life and the geeky inspirations that led her into writing, watching Star Trek with her family, playing board games, and how those experiences sparked a love for storytelling. During National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), Kelli challenged her students to join her in writing a novel, which inspired her to later submit a story to a Star Trek fiction contest that she ended up winning. That moment opened the door to a whole new world. We also dive into her many anthology projects, how she joined Modiphius, and her unexpected but rewarding introduction to tabletop roleplaying games. She shares how RPGs have helped her grow as a writer and how they can benefit others too. Plus, we talk about her passion for Marvel and her recent Carol Danvers Marvel book, how the character shaped her fandom and why getting to tell that story was such a meaningful opportunity. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that blends fandom, education, creativity, and the power of storytelling.

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive deep into the often-overlooked tool of language in tabletop RPGs—how it shapes worlds, defines characters, and enhances immersion. Whether it's a dwarven curse word, a whispered draconic threat, or a gnomish pun that lands like a rock in a puddle, the power of language can turn a good campaign into an unforgettable one. The discussion explores the practical, narrative, and mechanical implications of language in TTRPGs like Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder. The hosts share ideas for incorporating multilingualism into your campaign setting, including how dialects, slang, coded speech, and nonverbal communication (like thieves' cant or secret signs) add flavor to your storytelling. They also delve into how languages can be used to gate knowledge, shape factions, spark conflict, and even fuel plotlines. In classic RPGBOT fashion, the conversation balances practical advice with ridiculous tangents, including misused languages at the table, accidentally offensive fantasy names, and the ever-important question: “What does Infernal really sound like when you're mad?” Create Dungeons in minutes not hours with DungeonFlow.app Check out our Best of Season 1 and Best of Season 2 playlists! dScryb – Comprehend Languages (affiliate link) RPGBOT.Podcast Episodes The Maniculum Podcast – RPGBOT.News S2E48 Other Stuff Maniculum Podcast Tuckernut Island Key Takeaways Languages Are Storytelling Tools Languages in TTRPGs are more than just flavor—they're worldbuilding elements that reflect history, culture, and power dynamics.

Mechanical Impacts of Language Choices Language proficiency can serve as a subtle mechanical gate to information, alliances, and plot hooks.

GM Tips for Using Language Effectively Use language barriers sparingly to create tension or mystery without shutting down play. Allow PCs to learn languages over time, or treat linguistic study as a subplot or downtime activity. Develop regional dialects or jargon to distinguish cultures and classes of characters.

[School of Everything Else 2025] One of the most beloved 90s RPGs, and one of the few on Super Nintendo that was released in the UK. So, while I envied Americans for getting Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy IV and VI, Earthbound and Breath of Fire, THIS ONE was my first actual big console RPG. And it has problems; real playability issues that make it hard to recommend for everyone in the 20s. You'll find Mana fans who say that these don't matter, but they absolutely do. A fine comparison I came upon while mulling this one over was Breath of the Wild. Absolutely gorgeous, engrossing you in a luscious world dominated by fertile nature, but Link's swords breaking after half a dozen battles are not going to make the game more fun and engaging for everyone. And yet, there IS that immersion, there is the overwhelming emotional response that Mana fans have to the music and art style, and there's the undeniably satisfying THWACK of the combat. So, come on a journey with us and the three intrepid adventuring kids, Primm, Popoi and Randi, and decide whether playing Secret of Mana is right for you.
