I’m new here and looking for community! Are you my community??

I love:

✍️ Writing and storytelling across mediums

🎮 PC games (with standouts in almost every genre)

🎲 TTRPGs (especially Cypher, Ironsworn, and Free League games inspired by Simon Stalenhåg’s art books; also a long history with dnd)

I need to make room for new art and goodies.
Therefore I put a bunch of pieces on sale.
I also made end of year mystery boxes!!

You get cool stuff, I get shelf space. Sales are mutually beneficial!

Yes, there are a couple of Driftglobe lamp mystery boxes!

tonight my oldest d&d group destroyed the evil wizards we've been chasing for two and a half years, and they did it using competent teamwork and tactics, so of course I scowled and grumbled, but secretly I am proud of them

My D&D group still talks about this adventure, five years after integrating it into our campaign. The story ramifications even affected the group’s delve into Undermountain! Well worth taking a look, playing through, and having a good time—and using a couple NPCs as long-term party contacts… 👀
Looking for that perfect D&D holiday adventure? May I suggest 'Curse of the Sugarplum Fairy,' a delightfully dangerous intertextual mille-feuille of The Nutcracker, Willie Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, and Adventure Time? C'est magnifique! And a Silver Best Seller! www.dmsguild.com/product/3369...

There aren't a lot of other long-running game series I feel need an ESSENTIAL ORDER-style list.

Most series are either straightforward or too niche for me to feel the need to provide one.

But I hope my week of providing these has been fun! (I've relinked each in the thread below)
Concluding my ESSENTIAL ORDER series (for now), let's tackle the Metroid games!

The idea is that I'll list a sequence of landmark games in the series newbies should play if they want to be introduced to everything the epic series has to offer.

Feel free to disagree!

Subway sandwich
Martial ranged weapon
Damage: 1d4 bludgeoning
Range 5/20
Weight: 1/2 pound (1 pound if footlong)
It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

I recently finished the video game Cloudpunk by Ion Lands on PC. It’s a fun, thoughtful cyberpunk tale of a delivery driver’s first night in Nivalis, a failing & collapsing city that spares no one.

I loved moving through the neon city in my flying car, making deliveries and questionable decisions!
