CW: Sexual assault

I’m a visible GM in the #ttrpg space so I feel it’s important to add my voice. I woke up, fucking furious this morning. In the early 2000’s, my edge lord, fuckface of GM for my Exalted game, decided to have a powerful NPC r*pe my character. (1/4)

Watching the content in question, seeing the discomfort & horror being restrained, brought back a lot of rage & nausea. ESPECIALLY when it’s put in the context that my horrible experience was a work of fiction. But for people who have actually experienced it? (2/4)

Play your games how you want, but I think this gets real simple:

Sexual assault has NO place at the gaming table. It doesn’t need “tools”. It doesn’t need a discussion before hand.
IT HAS NO. FUCKING. PLACE. AT THE FUCKING. GAMING TABLE. (3/4)

Gleefully splashing around in trauma is a disgusting violation of the sacred trust your players, your GM & your audience place on in collaborative storytelling. I support the cast of Far Verona & everyone who felt this. I truly hope Koebel can learn from this. Done.
