I said a while ago that, as this @darkspacerpg.bsky.social thing was taking off, if we ever sold 500 copies, I would get a tattoo of the logo. We're now at 775 copies!

@thegeekpreacher.bsky.social said if we sell 1000 copies by the end of August, he'll get a matching tattoo. Spacers, make it so!

Derek and Than made a pilgrimage to the Temple of the Red Beaver on the way to #Origins2025 . Hopefully the apocalypse doesn't come while we're here!

This might turn into a post-apocalyptic one page adventure for the newsletter in the future!

@lauguz.bsky.social keep us in the loop on it. We love promoting other creators and have assets for labeling it as working with DarkSpace.

It's always great to see Kelsey whenever we get a chance! She's been a great friend for years.

Shortly after this photo, Baron de Ropp rolled two extra dice of damage on us!

The new @darkspacerpg.bsky.social Cover shirts came out better than I had hoped! Logo on the shoulder, title across the back, my own art across the front. So cool.

Today I had the honor of speaking to and sharing my love of RPGs with @vipe29.bsky.social's students at Lipscomb Academy about game theory, shared storytelling, and tables as safe spaces. Afterwards I ran a game of @darkspacerpg.bsky.social RPG for three students who had never played before!

Why do so many RPG towns look the same?

Use these real world examples to build RPG towns with character!

Jettying is the term for overhanging upper floors on a building. It provided more space on a small plot of land and also avoided higher property tax. Jettying was outlawed in England after the Great Fire of London due to aiding fire spread.
