When your TTRPG narration feels flat or your players don't know whether to take a scene seriously, this diagnostic walks you through five tonal failure modes: flat delivery that reads like a wiki, whiplash between comedy and drama, purple prose that bogs down play, monotone energy where combat feels like shopping, and genre mismatch where your mechanics and atmosphere fight each other. Each state includes symptoms, diagnostic checklists, and concrete interventions like "add one non-visual sense to each location" or calibrating description length to scene importance. It's less about writing better flavor text and more about reading the table's energy and knowing when to push, pull back, or signal a tonal shift.
