What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations?

Mine would be creating pen and paper ciphers for my made up secret communication needs.

Oh, that's safe. Try being into a more obscure ttrpgs like Mage The Ascension or worse, niche Powered by the Apocalypse games like Legacy.

I can't even talk about them to people already into ttrpgs.

Or FATE and its numerous incarnations. I feel like I get as far as saying "it's like DnD except..." before it veers off irrevocably into talking about DnD

Please talk to me about Mage. I've only gotten to play it once and really enjoyed it.

I met my wife playing Mage: the Ascension. Truly one in million. I know. Never got to try out M20 though. That should put a rough date on when this happened...

Dang, old school! I only got into WoD in the last few years but it's been so much fun and I've met amazing people through it. Spooky nerds are best nerds.
