With slightly more snark, yes I did have to support one of my staff as they reminded the local shopping centre security that just because someone is homeless, doesn't mean they can't use the library to keep warm like everyone else #librarylife

I made this a while back - a collection of tents and a shack - here's two versions of the map, a link to the Steam share, and five system-neutral scenario seeds for playing with it #ttrpg #maps #vtt
Maps – A Dusty Camp
I'm making all sorts of badlands biome maps because the new D&D campaign is going to be in that kind of setting - and a massive palette change from the winter and snow-dominated maps of the last few years. For the most part I'm making them with no particular scenario or story moment in mind, so I have flexibility in how I use them.

On nights out for #hagswalk I had this tray full of green dice. While I was rearranging everything yesterday, I swapped them all out for warmer hues of orange and red to reflect the Fire In The Hills @katyafirehair.bsky.social #ttrpg #dice

I made a new map for random encounters in the badlands - good for animal ambushes and camp disruptions I think - lighting is set for evening, and there's entrances to the north, west, and southeast. Mostly sand and rocks and dry brush among the raised land #ttrpg #maps #vtt

Christmas Eve
A quiet morning so far, with everyone else asleep in the flat. I always find it hard to wind down for holidays, theres always a feeling of coiled springs beneath my skin, especially in my shoulders - but today, right now, thats less noticeable. It's quiet. There's no traffic noise.…

Had to clamber over a barbed wire fence, rip my coat and trespass to get a photo of this folkloric monster pretending half-successfully to be a tree. I have no regrets.
