An intro!

Hey friends, it me JC Darcy. I'm a GM, writer, AP performer and producer from the north of England.

I wanna tell stories, write for your projects, introduce you to new systems, and uplift marginalised voices in the scene.

Follow me and @euphoriaap.bsky.social for more of the same!

For anyone interested, the TTRPG for January will be Dialect from Thorny Games. Week one, read the rpg. Week 2&3, play the rpg at least once. Week 4, discuss (I'll make a thread here). During the first three weeks, make sure to keep note of your thoughts and questions & feel free to share resources.
Who here would be interested in a "TTRPG of the month" club? Everyone reads, makes a character, plays, then asynchronously chats about a selected TTRPG each month? It's something I'm considering putting together & wanted to gauge the interest of different platforms to know how best to implement it.

Thought, play, community, and love have value FAR beyond what can be captured by money, attention metrics, and even time itself. The contortions we make to earn our keep should ever be recognized as such.

Fight, always, to keep what holds real value, including the most ephemeral of vessels.

Obligatory TTRPGs of 2025 wrap-up. In total, as a GM, player, producer, panelist, host, or chat guest, I took part in 97 sessions this year, across 27 systems.
Yes, I am fuming about missing 100, especially since at least 6 sessions were cancelled in December because I was so ill.
Behold, data:

There are very nice words about the little mini-game collection I wrote, in a newsletter that I habitually read and value, what is happening.
Many, many thanks to the following folks for submitting mini-games so fun/clever that we had to feature them:
Sofonisba, @alexrineh.art, @norbezjones.bsky.social, @jellyfishlines.itch.io, @jcdarcy.bsky.social, @alexconnolly.bsky.social, and @paladinosaur.bsky.social

I have been so completely offline for around three weeks, due to illness and childcare and holidays. It's been great, NGL.

My youngest has brought the gift of FLU into the house for the festive season. The only thing for it is mince pies and Ghibli movies.

Love a parcel delivery day. Overjoyed to get this in my hands!

Hello, I’m Amelia, an Illustrator based in the UK!
You can find me painting characters of all kinds, getting too deep into Cyberpunk, TTRPG’s, and farming simulator games 😅

I would love to work with you if you need an artist for RPG Projects 💕

WE'RE GOING TO SHARE THE BEST GAMES OF-

No, because declaring something the "best" is a yikes. We're talking about some games we want to know more about, looking back on 2025 and forward to 2026

AND still fundraising for Jingle Jam! twitch.tv/EUphoriaAP
TONIGHT! Let's put a bow on 2025 with one final stream for the year. @in-the-pan.bsky.social, @jcdarcy.bsky.social, and @michellicopter.bsky.social look back at the last twelve months of European TTRPGs, and take a peak at the European Creatives they're excited to hear from in 2026!

This was EUphoria's gift to all of you. Merry Jinglemas. Enjoy.
So that just happened...

There are no words. You just need to watch the VOD. And if you're moved (mooooved 🐄 ), please donate at buff.ly/NHTHlU5to help 8 charities and get some cool Steam games.

This is more wonderful than any of us could have imagined. If you can, please drop by and donate, push the wheel towards another spin and watch the cast scramble to adapt to a new system mid-game.
An entirely normal amount of wooden spoons have been acquired.

We're playing 10 one-page TTRPGs at random, based on your donations for JINGLE JAM

She's gonna try and leave the self deprecation behind for 2026, lads. Being surrounded by incredible talent, both on and offstream, can be intimidating. But with such kind words from those around me, it becomes easier to have faith and pride in what I'm doing.
Missed a day because BUSY!

But Day 10 is @jcdarcy.bsky.social

Another truly wonderful performer who is quick to self deprecate and feel like they are not as good as those around them.

But they have been part of two of our most emotionally gut punch stories in Our Last Summer and Mum Chums.

Top 3 games of all time. One of the most beautiful and treasured books on my shelf.
Been thinking a lot recently about Inevitable, my Doomed Arthurian Western RPG. You should really check it out! It's illustrated by @klurarts.bsky.social and looks truly stunning!

Speaking of parenting. Just spent 10 minutes having my 2 year old mansplain hot chocolate to me. Turns out I'm right and it IS better if you mix the powder with warm milk... 🤷‍♂️
December 10, 2025 at 5:34 PM
TTRPGs let you explore elements of yourself and your experience that might otherwise go unshared, unanalysed. To be able to play a parent in a game, amongst other parents, was an unique and gorgeous experience. Proud of what we did here :)
Tonight, we bring Mum Chums to the screen, with part 1 of our story, "Every Single Day."

Here's a sneak peak as Kayleigh (@jcdarcy.bsky.social) talks about trying to find connection with other parents.

Tune in at 7pm GMT.

This table, this story, is really something.

Everyone brought a lot of themselves and their experiences, both joyful and exhausting, and what we made will resonate with anyone who cares for small humans.

I can't even BEGIN to describe all the ways in which I have fallen in love with this system. MECHS should be an obvious reason. Also CLOCKS though? Also INEVITABLE DOOM? And not to mention RIVALS, POETRY, and COLLABORATIVE WORLDBUILDING?
Brace yourselves, Pilots: Dragon Reactor’s digital edition releases NEXT WEEK!

Such sweet sentiments from Sam! 🥹

I feel like I've really stepped up my roleplaying this year, and this is largely through collaborating with talented actors and storytellers like Sam and the other folks on this list.

Here's to a 2026 full of more stories that explore and question our world!
Day 9 is @drtalksalot.bsky.social

Khalil is a phenomenal performer who brings big ideas, high quality concepts & a lot of nuance to characters.
