A Perfect Wife has arrived. I absolutely love the words, the artwork and the very specific vibe that this adventure presents. Look at it! Isn’t it great? Amazing work from @zedecksiew.bsky.social @amandalee.bsky.social and Scrap World.
The front cover of A Perfect Wife by Zedeck Siew, Amanda Lee Franck and Scrap World. A horrific, childlike creature all in red brandishes an elongated claw-hand in the illustration. Inside cover of A Perfect Wife by Zedeck Siew, Amanda Lee Franck and Scrap World. Illustration shows an owl-like bird in white against a dark background. The back cover of A Perfect Wife. It reads, “Welcome to Desa Damai. The first disappearance was over a year ago. Now it happens with vicious regularity—every fortnight. The neighbourhood is tense. Most agree the following precautions work: - Head indoors if dogs are whining. - walk on by if your name is called. - Do not search for the baby crying. Illustration of an owl like bird in white against a dark forest. Two art prints: On the left, a spiky, crimson femme creature with wide open mouth, long black hair against a blue background. On the right, a person on a motorbike stopped in a pool of yellow light from a doorway in the backstreet of a city. The cityscape rises above and behind.

What a beautiful set the Normal Briefcase Edition of Triangle Agency is.

Mainly white, an illustration of a woman in a suit with a briefcase. The briefcase emits red energy and across an upside down cityscape Cover of the Vault, Missions for Triangle Agency. Honestly not sure what’s depicted. Some kind of biological matter containing a box of some sort. The contents of the Normal Briefcase edition of Triangle agency. The boook of character sheets on top.

My train! My fucked up train! It’s arrived! @mytholder.bsky.social @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social

An illustrated envelope with the words, You are the Heart scrawled on it. The illustration also depicts a variety of documents pinned to a board and connected with string. The cover of the wrapped Heart Gamemaster’s Screen. The illustrations are largely obscured by the wrap.
