Let’s talk about games!

Hey,
Have you ever wanted to play a rom com style TTRPG?

Bard players, I’m talking to you.

If yeah, you might like my game:
First Date Update - A lighthearted, GMless rom com TTRPG.

You’ll be able to pick it up through IPR at your next con or buy it through me at a discount (shoot me a DM)

Dice roll homebrew rules are fun.

Like inspiration alternatives. Or rolling with emphasis. Or owing a crit to the DM etc.

Do you have any special dice roll rules at the table?

I just wanna say hi from Atlantic CaNerdia! I'm not good at talking about myself. I love making personalized things for my nerdy friends. Like this box for keeping extra reading glasses safe and in one place!

For those of us who aren’t able to attend PAXu, let’s try & make a few new friends in the TTRPG space virtually!?

Tell me about you & your work, then scroll down and boost and let’s share one another’s work. It’s not the same as sharing a drink at the Marriott, but let’s be friends anyway?

Ah

Yes

The PAXu fomo is kicking in

Sometimes when I’m deep in game prep I can get a little lost.

I find it helpful to remind myself that if I only need to prep for the equivalent of two or three obstacles. And worst case, if I need to buy a little time, I can just throw closed door at my party and that’ll probably take all session.

Hi all! I'm Steph Campbell, who you may know as the person behind @ttrpgkids.com!

I decided it was time to make my own profile, and I'm looking forward to being "me" here and also sharing some of my non-TTRPGkids related projects 👀

I'll be on a panel at Pax U about how kids engage with darker content in TTRPGs, what that means, and why it is usually pretty OK (and maybe what to do when it goes a bit too far).

Stop by on Sunday before the con ends, and I'm excited to get to chat with folks on this!

Speaking of PAXu,

I recorded a little lessons learned retrospective of my time there in 2024.

If you’re going for your first time or want some tips to make the most of your time there give it a listen:

Be safe, have fun and share lots of picture please!

I love that feeling of having accidentally done too much game prep so now I can plan last minute dnd games

I know I know, I’m if you don’t ever prep you don’t have to deal with this but I STILL struggle with running compelling long form games without at least a smidge of prep
