Look at the cool goodies I got from @scrapyarngames.bsky.social! I already read the pdf of Last Call In Arkham, and it’s really neat.

This is a great time. I’m excited to make a literal cat with Arium sooooon.
And it's back to our regularly-scheduled programming, for now! This time on the Literal Cat Podcast, we take a look at Brindlewood Bay by @gauntletrpg.bsky.social! And by the way, in case we didn't mention it, this cat is bisexual!

This is a fun tool for helping think about how you’ll roleplaying a new character. Em is a great up and coming game designer.

BOUNDLESS SPACE: Last image for the playtest, a little cover doodle to help set the mood.

On that note, this is a TTRPG with guns and fighting, sure, but that's there primarily to add that element of danger. What I hope to draw the players towards is the community building and the sense of wonder.

Is GMing like riding a bicycle.
You never forget or do you lose the skill if you haven't GMd for a good while?

Ongoing Arium: Evolve playtesting is so much fun. I wish I could do it every day, not just Saturdays!

This week, we finished the initial buildout of our post post apocalyptic drowned world of ancient aethertech ships and small magics. The group named it Periphery of Aether.

Can’t wait to GM!

Everyone. I did a very difficult (boring) thing tonight.

Adept Icarus is a Florida company now. We only relocated here YEARS ago.

I can tell this jam is going to be a fun one! Matthew has created an excellent PSA for newcomers warning them about the dangers of dice. How will you welcome others to the hobby?

You may or may not know, I have a smallish (barely noticeable) obsession with Arthurian RPGs.

When I found my package from Graftbound Press crumpled up in the Adept Icarus mailbox like it was being prepped as tinder for a bonfire, I’m sure I looked completely crestfallen.
