Indonesian TTRPG Blogwagon

17 Aug, 2026

I'm writing this blogpost on the Independence Day of Indonesia, 17th of August. Honestly, I can go on a rant about how this country sucks and the government is shit. But instead, I want to use this opportunity to make this blogpost a rallying call for the people of the Indonesian TTRPG scene (or those who admire/curious/interested in the Indonesian TTRPG scene) to write a gameable blogpost related to Indonesia! (Also, this is a reason for me to bother my friends who haven't written their blogposts in a long time, and to make my friends who have been wanting to write their first blogpost feel the FOMO.)

There's been discussions in several online TTRPG communities that I'm in on how the fantasy genre in TTRPG can be more than just the default European-style fantasy, and even responses like thinking that people who are asking for fantasy to be more diverse and weird are people who don't want to kill dragons.

Well, I believe fantasy, or any genre/fiction for that matter, should be more than the European/American-centric style of genres/fictions.

Hence why I'm calling for the...

INDONESIAN TTRPG BLOGWAGON
