Terrasphere Radio

Welcome to Terrasphere Radio!

This member-run podcast packs 30 minutes with everything you need to know:

• Site events.
• LFG and thread spotlights.
• Member interviews.
• Q & A sessions.
• And more!

Every couple weeks, we'll be asking for your input on important topics, and questions for our Q & A. Be sure to check out this post for upcoming guests, topics, and questions for you to answer!

For our next podcast...

Our guest will be @Skyswimsky! If you have any questions for our favorite German DM, please post them here!

We'll also be discussing writing itself, and how masteries play into storytelling on TS. If you'd like to weigh in on the matter, and possibly have your thoughts read on the podcast, answer the following question:

To what extent does your character's mastery levels affect your writing? For example, if your character has a novice mastery, do you go out of your way to write them failing, or struggling?​

​

 

Episode One

In our first episode, we interview the one and only @Asch! He reflects on his plan for Terrasphere's future, and the mega patch. We also discuss the Reclamation of Pride and Bandit King events, and field your questions!

Listen to it here!

Episode Two

In our second episode, we talk with @Skyswimsky about what it is like to run a challenge on Terrasphere! If you've ever wondered about the highs and lows of being a Dungeon Master, this might just be the podcast for you.

Check it out!

 

Oo, oo, more stupid questions!

1. What level of difficulty are you most interested in setting your events at?
2. If you were a planet, which one would you be and why?
3. Can you say the following words?
   1. Brewery
   2. Hierarchy
   3. Seigi
   4. Antidisestablishmentarianism
   5. Another random name from TS

I do take MP into account when writing. Personally, I tend to think of it like this:

• 0 (beginner) to 199 (trained) is a newbie who fails a lot and is testing the mastery out to learn how stuff works.
• 200 (proficient) to 999 (adept) is sorta average skill that can do some cool stuff.
• 1000 (expert) to 2999 (master) is where you start to pull off a lot of the powerful skills you'd expect an end-game character to have.
• ...and as far as Illustrious tier goes, I'd say same as above, but sentient legendary equipment starts finding you really attractive, and they're all like "Take me with yooooooou~" ...or something.

But ya know... that's just me.

 

1. how's life been going? for any one of you guys!
2. for sky! okie dokie, you can have the power to breathe underwater or fly. which would u choose?
3. wut're u planning 4 in ur dm career? like r u going pan's route to make an overarching antagonist, a seasonal storyline, a few stand-alone dungeons, or something? - for sky
4. is water wet? - for everyoneeee

and for the mastery question:

i mostly use it for creative purposes and i like to empathize skill > power level whenever i have alpha join something. it's boring if you always win because your numbers are higher; i like to make sure there's always some sort of struggle going on. maybe the enemy is way smarter or maybe she just keeps pulling spells out her butt and depletes all her energy before the battle even starts. mastery is important in events but it doesn't make you omnipotent or uber powerful or undefeatable

 

Another great job!

 

Great work! I enjoyed this week's episode, how about a regular member as a guest for the 3rd episode?

 

I vote Theo or Lyre for the next one!
