October 11th is the 2nd Berlin International Roleplaying-game Convention (BIRCON)! I'm one of the organizers, and In the run-up to the con we're doing a series of (hopefully) useful livestreams on our YouTube channel. The next one is on Friday 19th at 18:00 CEST.

Wolden Issue 1 was successfully kickstarted earlier in the year. Work on issues 2 & 3 has been continuing steadily. Here are the covers for all 3 (subject to change).

Art for 1 and 2 by Henriette Bold, and 3 by Alyssa Avery.

The carousing table for the Lion Sodality is coming along. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #indierpg #osr

Who's writing up the next cults for Wolden? This guy! The Lion Sodality is a group of "Regency" gourmands and adventurers. A bit like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, but also for taboo foodies. With an awesome art piece by Alysa Avery.

Sometimes you adapt your text to your layout, and sometimes you insert an upside down piece of another illustration and dot a sprinkling of occult symbols to honor the text and make the layout your bitch. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #zinequest #layout #graphicdesign #rpg (Art by Henriette Boldt.)

You can levitate, but only if done dramatically. From the #WoldenRPG Actual Play. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJWN... for the whole thing. #ttrpg

Like all my RPGs, Wolden is designed to be easy on the GM. But don't worry players, I've got you too! How about traits, powers, and equipment, ready to print, cut, and stick on your character sheet? #woldenrpg #ttrpg #rpg #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo #lazygm

Planned to quickly write some index cards with locations and paths for a city crawl, but scope crept… ##ttrpg ##rpg ##citycrawl ##osr ##nsr ##perilsandprincesses

The book also has tools of the trade (holy hand grenades, bad habits, ...), some info about battle nuns and how to create your own, and some adventure outlines. Oh, and a Tactical Ordnance Mobile Battle Shrine (T.O.M.B.S.). Art by Anna Molla, Alysa Avery, Jesselyn Yaeger, and Karen Reding.

One of my favorite books because the spells in it are reasonably open-ended but also often powerful and... problematic. The core of these Battle Nuns' belief is that what we call demonic is divine is in fact the same—entities from Elsewhere that we cannot comprehend.

My phone showing me this photo with Soulmuppet's Zach at ##dragonmeet from ages ago today. Great photo bombing by Kara!
