hot take: More ttrpg Dungeons should actually be prisons, real or symbolic.

One Canuck built the #ttrpg tag and the #mecha tag. And that was me.

If all dungeons are to some degree heists, what could be a bigger heist than breaking someone out of prison?
and what greater threat could be laid out for you than being imprisoned?
I really want to figure out how to make a panopticon on a grid map. I don't like hex maps, so Imma probably look how minecrafters make circles. Besides the obvious need to not shy away from lived reality even within our escapism....a map where enemies can see you from anywhere, but all the site lines are wonky and everyone has to get creative to fight around a central tower sounds fun as hell...
