Doctor Who
The 3rd Doctor is sort of blocked off. He spends most of his time exiled on Earth, which means that most stories are set in the few years that he was working with the Brigadier at UNIT.
But, there is a time jump between Season 10 and Season 11, where:
• he has gained back the ability to use the TARDIS again
• he hasn't got any companions.
You could theoretically put new companions in there, but then you have to explain why he bothers to come back to work with UNIT.
Doctor Who
...each of these Doctors has a different level of blocked-offness.
The 1st Doctor is completely blocked off, unless you set the story on Gallifrey in the time before he stole a TARDIS and ran away with his granddaughter.
The 2nd Doctor is completely blocked off, and in a worse scenario: the 2nd Doctor's travels cannot possibly exceed a few years, because of Jamie, who was with the 2nd Doctor the whole way through... if it wasn't for the workaround (which I'll come back to.)

Doctor Who
It frustrates me that some of the Doctors are "blocked off" from having new companions in fanfic.
As an example: the 1st doctor always gains a new companion before the previous one leaves the TARDIS, which means that one of the companions in the TV show must [i]always[/i] be there. I can't write a story which is "the First Doctor travels with my fan characters Viola and Vermi and no-one else".
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th Doctors are all "blocked off", but...

Usually when you see a map in an RPG it is a very modern map. Which is good, as they let you describe things to the player. However, when showing things to players, you could bring in maps from other traditions here, to help them get a sense for the place and culture.
Board Games
Yesterday, I played Lunar Rails with some friends!
It's a game where you draw train routes on the moon with crayons.

board games
Today I sleeved all the cards in the three board games I own (Machi Koro, Lunar Rails, and Forbidden Island).
It took quite a lot of sleeves, because all of those games are very card driven (collectively they have 334 cards), but they're now nicer to shuffle and more protected from damage

The hawk perched on the bleached white skull.
The raven coughed, "That's my spot."
"Why?"
"It's what people expect to see when they come here."
"Sounds like there's a cliché being perpetuated."
The raven considered this, "Yes but... it sets the MOOD, y'know? Makes the humans think about their mortality and all that."
"I would argue that's more the skull than you on it..."
"Granted; I just don't think you'll have the same effect."
