Ok, so these aren't going to be the same quality as more expensive graphic markers but honestly 2.99 to be able to dabble is quite nice. Middle aisle for the win.

Pretty sure I read some of the Wheel of Time series when I was at college, every time I'm in a bookshop I think of them and always wonder do I have the time to get into such a big series.

Happy Valentines Day! SoulWrought is live on our store now in the spirit of the season. A sequel to SwornHeart, this two-player romantasy game follows a cursed sword and its Wielder as they travel toward the Soulsmith who forged their fate. Trust, magic, and inconvenient affection await. #TTRPG

An advertisement for the game Soul Wrought, featuring purple and orange medieval styled assets and two pictures showing the game on a wooden floor.

The cover of the game SoulWrought featuring a medieval styled woman standing next to a sword. The text reads: SOULWROUGHT a two player narrative game of cursed steel, growing trust and dangerous affection.

Nothing states how bad your eyesight is other than getting the expensive bill for the new glasses.

However, I console myself with the cost divided by the days in a year is relatively cheap.

I know the hospital would rather you early for your appt than late, but an hour is slightly taking the proverbial. Unfortunately Costa inside the hospital doesn't have anything I want so lurking instead.

I thought the days of worrying if I got the right pencil case were behind me, apparently not. Looking for one as I'm fed up with spending ages looking for highlighters, pens, inks and what not in the bottom of my rucksack,need one that is big, opens up nicely, and looks vaguely like an adult owns it

Hi!

With the launch looming over us, we've created a website for Carnage on Cape Cod.
You will find all news there, including a daily dev diary once the campaign kicks off.
Please bookmark it if you wish to be in on all the sweet (read, scary!) details.

Thanks!

Carnage on Cape Cod cover art.
Fang&Tentacle production.

Carnage on Cape Cod Interactive novel is on the left. It's black with a white eye crying at the center of the page. The shape also looks like an opening in a cave.

Carnage on Cape Cod Adventure scenario is on the right. Another black cover, but this one has the shape of a white, eclipsed Moon above the ocean, with nine different blades below, following its curve.

Interactive Novel - Art Page

A woman dressed in yellow in a stormy sea.

The text reads:

THE TEMPEST
-ENTRY 01 -

A siren keeps still in the ocean tonight. She's dressed in warm sunshine, her hair red, tied in a messy bun atop her twitching head. The ocean is autumn cold and restless with the waves, yet she stands there unmoved, with an absolute absence of regard of any kind for the rainstorm washing away her tears. The water is splashing at her shivering waist. At her yellow dress.
Suddenly, she acts, fumbling with her hands as if her arms itched with a horrendous agony her body could no longer contain. The crashing of the waves mutes her cries.

She unclasps the clip holding the bundle of her hair, releasing the mane of red, shrouding her shuddering visage. She makes a quick motion with both her hands as if scratching one arm's length and then the other. Just once each, from a soft spot between the muscles of her upper arm down to her palm. Only her gritting teeth show any notion of pain. They are close to shattering.

She raises both her arms towards the bright moon above. Her sunny sleeves open up, spurting blood from each arm, coloring the sea with the color of her hair, swallowing the sunshine of her dress with the eclipse of the pouring dark. The bloody hair clip drops from her hand, as she starts spinning with the last shred of consciousness, with the last breath of life. And there she is, dancing death and beautiful, twirling away her remaining years in a fountain of blood, food for fish, her arms raised still.

It is not only her body that moves, but her lips are also contorting in a strange manner as if speaking speech unknown and silent. Her eyes are wide and glistening with fear. With joy. After the ninth pirouette, she drops down, caught by the waves. Dead in the water. Lulled by the ocean rouged with blood, pale with the imposing Moon. Blessed suicide saluted by a downpour.
A siren had died tonight.
The queen of the sea is dead.

You open your eyes.…

Adventure Scenario Portraits

A pale woman with stitched lips and runny makeup, and a man with a darker tan than her, a thin mustache and a white shirt.

Adventure Scenario - Overview.
A mockup of an open book.
The left page is crimson red and in white letters it says:

That woman must be the saddest woman alive.
Not only the pools of her eyes, but her entire body is made out of tears, her branching fingers, the
many ponds of Haddoc.
She wants to speak to you, but she can’t open her mouth.
Maybe for the best. More sadness would inevitably pour out and wash away the universe.
But the saddest woman alive isn’t sad with her sadness.
She’s sad with yours.
She holds the entire cosmos of sadness within her. All someone else’s. All EVERYBODY else’s.
In her veins, in the stitches of her voice, in her putrid skull, in her belly.
She’s the mother water.
And you stand before her disrobed, ready to take a swim because nobody warned you how dangerous
it was.
How sadness compels...

On the right white page is the Index.
