Hello all! We're excited to announce the release of the first episode of #ThePsyogenicSymposium, where we dive into a TTRPG system and do some design. In this episode, we explore Monster of the Week and design stuff based on prompts we give each other.

We have been testing a new OSR class for Basic Fantasy, with our main design edict being that it fit alongside the big four, Magic-User, Thief, Fighter, and Cleric. So far, we believe we have something special that fills a niche that the other four don't.

When engaged in downtime activities, what systems do you typically use? What makes a downtime system effective in your opinion? I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts! We're working on designing downtime rules and believe it’s important to understand what GMs are looking for.

‘I remember well the splendour of their banners,’ he said. ‘It recalled to me the glory of the Elder Days (...), so many great princes and captains were assembled. And yet not so many, nor so fair, as when Thangorodrim was broken, and the Elves deemed that evil was ended forever, and it was not so.

We have recently created a set of rules under the Basic Fantasy project for a variant system of Encumbrance. While the system is designed for basic fantasy, it works for most any OSR game. Please check it out!

I've been running Caverns of Thracia since January in Basic Fantasy, and it's amazing to me how revolutionary Jennell's design was for the hobby. While the layout shows its age, the contents of the adventure are unrivaled and so much fun to run.

Let us all call today, Jennell Jaquays Day! Let it be a day to remember a wonderful game designer. Let us play some games, design a bit of a dungeon, and recall some of the friends we have made. Spread the word and let's all have a memorable Jennell Jaquays Day!

I had NO IDEA there was a alternate, WAY BETTER and also much more expensive to Little Shop Of Horrors (1986).
It's just astonishing! If this had been the original ending that movie would have been a SMASH. It's perfect! It makes the whole movie better!

[1] Some thoughts on TTRPGs and oral history
The last couple of weeks have seen me conduct the first 15 interviews for my project looking at how people experienced and understood post-apocalyptic TTRPGs in the 1970s/80s, and how this intersects with the Cold War (broadly defined). It's been great!

Player Mapping for Online games has been an issue for me in the past, but no more!
I have found Google Sheets works surprisingly well as a communal mapping software where you can make notes and have different players add to it.
Feel free to copy my sheet through the link below.
