As a D&D fan in my present life, I recently realized that so much of my life back in elementary school would count as... role-playing games. On the playground, pretending to be things, and acting in character. Were other kids like that too, or was it just me?

Anyway, I've run with this idea and turned it into a webcomic, where elementary school kids play an RPG on the playground together. It's called Playgrounds and Paladins, and it just launched last week at roguehexagon.com/playgrounds. I'm excited to see how it goes!

Nice start. I'm looking forward to see where this goes.

I love how you so quickly establish the new character; do you actually have any idea what level of math the real person was working on? (Differential equations in fourth grade is kind of unrealistic.)

Absurdly advanced, yes... Kelsey is certainly the least normal of the main cast.

It's a pretty cool idea. When do you update?

Good question! *goes off to check*

Looks like there's one running though my other host, Tapas. It's at tapas.io/rss/series/97454

I'd say remove the auto-playing music from the latest page...

Something new I was trying out to see how it would go. I've de-autoplayed it.

(Also, new one is up today!)

They didn't know it yet, but only one of them had grasped the meaning of RP... https://tapas.io/episode/1073953

Did you really tie soccer balls together with jump ropes?
