My Liminal Horror module, Raven's Loft, is finally released!
I hope you all like this spin on Ravenloft- the first nsr / osr module I've made.

I tried to keep to the spirit of the AD&D module as much as possible in a modern setting. For the Twisted Classics Jam.

I'm writing the Void Mystery for the Brindlewood Bay game I've been running for @pemetawe.bsky.social

What a campaign! 6 mysteries, Sixteen Void Clues, five amazing Mavens, one dead crow, and MANY smiling dogs ominously eating raw meat

ZAGREUS RISES

I'm so excited to see how this wraps up

Silksong’s fascination with religion is obvious from the beginning. But only in examining the game’s conclusion(s) does its perspective become clear — this is a story about the apocalyptic finish line, a story about the end of stories. And it is also about what comes after.

saturation with Tolkien spinoffs has somehow not prepared our culture for the arrival of dark lords bearing a gift that everyone becomes convinced they can wield to accomplish great things but just makes them dependent and start whispering about preciouses if you suggest just throwing it away

I had a rough childhood, if I'm being honest. Yeah, I was the Eraserhead baby. That happened to me. With the scissors and all that. I mean it's fine now, but it was tough for sure. I work in Admin now. We moved out to Abington. It's good now. Go Phils.
