Hello! I'm Thai and I create #TTRPG things, from adventures & battle maps to GM guides & printable noticeboard posters (a lot of which are free!)

Here are some things I've made, including a butterfly wax seal you can use in your personal projects.

You can find more of me here: ofmetalandmagic.com
A red wax seal depicting a butterfly among clouds. A black and white TTRPG battlemap featuring a staircase coming down from the top onto a balcony that wraps around both sides of a large chamber to the bottom where stairs join into a lower central pit. Columns and railings have broken and fallen down, though none touching the pile of gold in the middle. One column had smashed an ornate mirror onto the ground. A noticeboard poster with handwritten text of a historian asking for adventurers to aid in a dungeon-delving expedition to clear the newly found throneroom of Aldrik the Vile. They are offering 400 gold up front and a portion of the treasures.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

had a great time making this for Taron.

Greetings TTRPG friends! ... This weeks issue... well. I kinda like it. I kinda hate it. I'm kinda story-and-cinematic-GM-brained, and not theory-brained. Would appreciate your takes on this topic.

Transcending Random Encounters in TTRPGs (Dungeon Delve #42)
What story do our encounters tell? Are random encounters too complex, or too simple? Do they provide enough inspiration to the GM? This week, I give advice on how to better present, build, and write!
