Today has been a good, uneventful day. All citizens have been happy and productive.
Something is wrong. What are they plotting?

If you're anything like me, the #PercyJackson show made you want to run something inspired by Greek myth for your #ttrpg campaign. Check out my blog, where I share some resources for running that sort of campaign! https://www.veritastabletop.com/percy-jackson/

Lessons from Percy Jackson in Adapting Myth

Something a little bit different today. This blog is all about using history (including historical understandings of things like religion and folklore) and using that to inform and inspire roleplaying.

I can't wait to have the books and start shipping them. ❤️

This Carved from Brindlewood (#PbtA) game is inspired by The Name of the Rose and Cadfael.

Will your Friars uphold the truth against uncontrolled rumors?

I added to Rosewood Abbey a couple of missing Handouts:
- Rumor Apocrypha sheet
- Rumor Mill versions for either +/-4, 6 or 8 sessions.

I have trouble finding sleep tonight but thanks to that, I just noticed Rosewood Abbey made it to the second spot among Popular #PbtA titles on Itchio. 😊

#TTRPG #CarvedFromBrindlewood #gamedesign #RosewoodAbbey

This is NOT a drill!

The Rosewood Abbey TTRPG layout is now completed and the book is out to be printed.

Since charity is a virtue, I'll wait till tomorrow morning (GMT) before I raise price on Itchio and end the 30% discount on print pre-orders.

LAST CHANCE to take advantage of this bargain price.

GOOD NEWS: I'm close to completing Rosewood Abbey's layout and sending it to the printer.

"BAD" NEWS: The 30% pre-order discount is about to end! The PDF is about to see its PRICE INCREASE! 😱

DON'T WAIT to order my monastic mysteries TTRPG.

I just played English Eerie by @trollishdelver, a wonderful solo/gm-less 'Rural Horror' Storytelling game.

The game's strength lie in it's transparency and a strong story structure. A game where your character will be affected by the horrors at best and deadly at worst.

A custom card stack gives a 3-act timeline and synopsis gives you the premises, characters, locations, clues and interactions.

just played The Crushing Dark (https://byemberandash.itch.io/the-crushing-dark), a solo-#ttrpg where you play as a researcher going down into the bottom of the ocean, uncovering equally incredible and terrifying things about the world both outside and inside your bathysphere... take a dive!

it was an incredible experience, never felt so many chills from balancing some rocks hahaha. I got this game and much more (372 more to be exact) from a Palestinian Relief bundle on itch.io, right here! https://itch.io/b/2321/palestinian-relief-bundle

The Crushing Dark by Ember and Ash

Descend to the darkest recesses of the ocean... and your own mind. A solo journaling RPG.

Are these practical? Or are they just nerdy flex?

I don't care. I find them delightful!

The pill-box keychain filled with pill-sized dice is going to be on my person all the time. And for "formal occasions" (like gaming conventions) the pendant filled with them will be around my neck and ready for action.
