So I've been trying for a long time to figure out a good, simple way to substitute dice for a deck of playing cards. I made this primarily for the sake of accessibility--I am disabled in such a way that I can't use physical cards, and it is much, much harder to find good offline digital card decks than dice rollers--but I'm hoping it will also be useful for people who don't have playing cards on hand or space to use them.

You will need:
A d10 and d6.
Preferably a way to record which cards you've drawn to which pile.
How to draw a card:
You will be rolling from 1 of 9 tables; the d10 is your table die, and the d6 is your result die. If you roll a 10 on the table die, reroll.
If playing without jokers, reroll on a 5-6 result from Table 9. If playing with jokers, roll normally.
The default order of suits is Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs, though you may change this if you want.
The order of numbered cards is Ace to King for each suit, followed by the black joker and red joker.
Roll 1d10 and 1d6.
Table 1:
1: Ace of Spades
2: 2 of Spades
3: 3 of Spades
4: 4 of Spades
5: 5 of Spades
6: 6 of Spades
Table 2:
1: 7 of Spades
2: 8 of Spades
3: 9 of Spades
4: 10 of Spades
5: Jack of Spades
6: Queen of Spades
Table 3:
1: King of Spades
2: Ace of Hearts
3: 2 of Hearts
4: 3 of Hearts
5: 4 of Hearts
6: 5 of Hearts
Table 4:
1: 6 of Hearts
2: 7 of Hearts
3: 8 of Hearts
4: 9 of Hearts
5: 10 of Hearts
6: Jack of Hearts
Table 5:
1: Queen of Hearts
2: King of Hearts
3: Ace of Diamonds
4: 2 of Diamonds
5: 3 of Diamonds
6: 4 of Diamonds
Table 6:
1: 5 of Diamonds
2: 6 of Diamonds
3: 7 of Diamonds
4: 8 of Diamonds
5: 9 of Diamonds
6: 10 of Diamonds
Table 7:
1: Jack of Diamonds
2: Queen of Diamonds
3: King of Diamonds
4: Ace of Clubs
5: 2 of Clubs
6: 3 of Clubs
Table 8:
1: 4 of Clubs
2: 5 of Clubs
3: 6 of Clubs
4: 7 of Clubs
5: 8 of Clubs
6: 9 of Clubs
Table 9:
1: 10 of Clubs
2: Jack of Clubs
3: Queen of Clubs
4: King of Clubs
5: Black Joker
6: Red Joker

Methods to efficiently keep track of a deck are another story, and will be one of my next projects, but for now have this in case it's helpful to you. Enjoy!

if you get that last one you can reroll the ones column, tens column, or both, up to you. tune in next time for so fucking help me i WILL find an efficient way to substitute dice for a deck of playing cards
#solo rpgs#solo ttrpgs#ttrpg tables#i doubt this is something people haven't figured out many times already; but! it's useful and i hadn't seen it anywhere#and it was enough of a hassle that i figured i'd save some time for anybody who also will find it useful and hadn't seen it elsewhere#also i know it would maybe be more in the spirit of the thing to call it 'when all you have is a d100'#because a *lot* of the time that's effectively what you're rolling for; and maybe i will change the name to that#but you could do it with just a d10! it'd be really annoying in some cases because you have to roll d10 twice for a d100! but you could!#current parameters of the challenge are 'make the roll without having to reroll anything below a 90 or a 10'#i made the rpgsolo hack to be playable with only a d10 and d100 and it was fun enough that i wanted to do more with that#also i will be fair and say that the dice deck thing is not necessarily when all you have is a d10. i will take any dice combo that works#my disabled ass can't use physical cards; and physical dice are dodgy#but there are a LOT more digital dice rollers out there than there are digital card deck tools#let alone ones that don't rely on an online server; let alone ones that actually work on mobile#it is A Quest of Mine and i have zero experience with game jams but i am legit considering poking at hosting one for this#in particular because there's like 5000 ways you could do it and it would be nice to give people accessibility options#in case whatever go-to i jury-rig for myself doesn't jive with them#it does count as awkward tables initiative to me though so it goes under the same banner as this one#when all you have is a d10 project#awkward tables initiative#RPGSolo#ttrpg tag#whosebaby does game dev#whosebaby makes things#edit: literally less than a half hour after posting this i found. the simplest possible way to draw a card with dice. wheezes#figuring out a method to keep TRACK of a deck efficiently is probably another story but OH MY GOD. IT'S BEEN A YEAR#AMAZING

I AM TIRED OF WRITING POEMS ABOUT LOVING THE STARS WHEN THEY HAVE NEVER LOVED ME BACK. TIRED OF PRETENDING FATE GIVES A DAMN ABOUT MY TEARS OR PLEAS, ABOUT MY “please, PLEASE”
TIRED OF BEGGING AND HOPING AND WAITING FOR THE WORLD TO BECOME A HOME AROUND ME. AGAIN, AGAIN I REPEAT I HAVE A RIGHT TO BE ANGRY. I HAVE A RIGHT TO BE ANGRY. THE UNIVERSE HAS DONE ME WRONG I WILL NO LONGER BE MEEK.
SO MAYBE IT IS MY FAULT. MAYBE THE TRUTH OF IT IS I AM JUST SELF-DESTRUCTIVE. I AM SELF-DESTRUCTIVE AND DEPRESSED AND UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. BUT THE SKY IS AN EASY TARGET FOR MY IRE, FOR WHAT IS DIVINE CAN NEVER DIE.
AND SO I SCREAM UNENDING A CHALLENGE TO THE STARS AN EXPERIMENT TO SEE  IF THEY DARE SILENCE ME.
and would i mind it, if they did? no, not at all. at least–a reply.                          at last–to know they are alive.
please, please. another voice in the void is all that i seek.
 A CHALLENGE, OR A PLEA, Amrita C. | Week 2 of 52 Writings

one thing i really like is how they obviously went out of their way to match asahi's speech patterns with his and yotsuyu's father. the guy is a minor NPC who barely has any lines, and yet despite him being an old man who doesn't particularly look like asahi he uses the exact same inflections and tone of voice. you've already been listening to asahi being a creep this whole time, and then suddenly if you're paying attention it becomes so clear where he got it from. he really does just sound exactly like his dad.
(and it makes absolutely everything about the situation that much more skin-crawling, considering what their father is actually saying in the scene where that stands out the most.)
again, minor NPC with very little screentime; it would have been easy for them to just give him A Voice and be done with it, and instead they took the opportunity to imply volumes about asahi and his dynamic with his family in such an effective, understated way. anyway the naeuri siblings are ruining my life

man there is like. so much to be said about hermes' story, the experiences it represents (spoiler alert: even under the least bad faith interpretations it's not just Unfortunate Depression That Was No One's Fault), his dynamics with both the other ancients and meteion, the ancients' society in general, and the fandom's reaction to all of it--especially compared to the way they talk about other villains and antagonists. i have a lot of thoughts in me about it, and hopefully i'll have the spoons to write out at least a few of them.
that said, first and foremost, [stage whispers with my hands around my mouth] it's the
✨️Racism ✨️
#final fantasy xiv#ffxiv#ffxiv hermes#like jesus christ dude where the fuck do i even start lmao#that is not *remotely* the only axis of Awfulness here re: the fandom's behavior#but like. it is so incredibly utterly transparent.#and even moreso when you factor in that he does not have any forms we see; including reincarnations; that are not unambigously not white#except for the one whose face we don't see; and whose only bit of visible skintone is nonhuman and inconclusive re: any racial coding#you k n o w if there were at the very least one (1) white dude to latch onto and sympathize with people would not be like this about him#the constant explicit comparisons between him and emet-selch as an example of a ~real~ well-written sympathetic villain#whose actions are ~understandable and excusable because really his motivations are just so Fundamentally Human~#in particular are pretty much as mask off as a fandom can possibly fuckin get#It's So Bad Squirtle. Oh My God#anyway yeah so far my attempts to find any kind of hermes meta or appreciation other than fanart have been a nightmare#of sealioning and awful; just balls-out offensive takes; while screeching about how they're being silenced by the ''hermes sympathizers''#and mostly turned up jack shit otherwise#so if anyone has recommendations for meta/appreciation/etc for him that is not Like That i welcome it immensely#and anyone who comes onto this post to argue about it is getting blocked#racism cw#FF tag#ffxivtag#the salt files#warning: worm grass

there are so, so many reasons the dinner scene is hysterically funny, and one of them is that matt mccooey and jeremy ang jones' performances are extremely distinct to me even when they're both playing fandaniel. which isn't to say either of them did a bad job with the transition! the change is mostly pretty seamless! but my first instinct is to hear amon!fandaniel as hermes being Theatrical, and a good chunk of the time i have to purposely stop and listen back to register him as fandaniel instead. so when i tell you it almost killed me in one hit to hear the word 'daddy' come out of this man's mouth,
