Oh hey, it's me, Jason (derogatory), of Von Skulltaker Industries.

Did you know I make things sometimes? It's news to me, as well!

Here's a few of them:
Were I a musician, I would create a more modern medley of holiday songs, such as:
-Wax-Fucked Menorah
-I Hate Dreidel (“I’m A Chocolate Coin Socialist”)
-A New Haggadah (“This Nationalist Narrative Is Making Us Uncomfortable”)
-I Don’t Remember The Prayer For Wine (“But I’m Drinking Anyway”)

Related to conversations about fantasy adventure and colonialism: one thing that is very interesting about D&D's medievalism is that its default geography -- frontiers, large areas of wilderness, etc. -- is not particularly what medieval W. Europe was like.

You owe it to yourself to read through the entire thread.
The whole idea of needing faceless mooks to slaughter in a "Ghibli-inspired" game is, of course, completely stupid, since questioning the value of violence and conceiving of adventure heroes who don't just gun down hordes of foes is part of the whole Miyazaki ... deal.

Citation is easy. It's a couple of lines on your credits page.

Citation is encouragement. Every time somebody else acknowledges me this way, I feel like the work is worthwhile.

Citation is introspection. You are marking your trajectory, the ports you have called at, as a maker.

99% of rpg zines and books should have page numbers.

And that's just the start. There's actually a lot of technique and intentionality behind things like page numbers, running headers, etc.

Let me know what you think!

"You should enjoy games the way I enjoy games!" can and should be read as badly misdirected loneliness.

This is an oubliette, the labyrinth’s full of them.

Really, I didn’t know that.

Oh don’t sound so smart, you don’t even know what an oubliette is.

Do you?

Yes, it’s a place to put people to forget about them…

As a traditional fantasy creator, I only have one goal:
To make the past better,
and try not to make future worse.

Due to intense health issues, I will not be available for any further art commissions for the rest of the month.

I will still be working on personal creative projects, but at my own pace.

If you'd like to support me financially, I made a bundle of all my paid stuff: itch.io/s/171477/sup...

I love Trent Holbrook of Miscast fame. Now he’s given a pretty great intro to #ose / old school #RPGs to his fanbase? What a legend.
old school dungeons and dragons is really cool and you should play

mouse sketch - where it all began with @miceoflegend.bsky.social

The world of those modules used mouse sized swords and not artifacts like this needle-sword, but I still like the ideas of a mouse kitted out with thread spool + fishing hook in place of rope + hook.
