Just discovered What Happened by @bignoseagenda.bsky.social in my search for TTRPGs by Indigenous creators. Seems both haunting and yet beautiful in its community-centered mechanics. Looking forward to giving it a try ❤️
Cover design for What Happened TTRPG. Black background with red and white ombre image of a woman made from sand in an hourglass. Text reads “what happened? A game about what we’ve lost. A game about looking in the dark. A game about fearing what you’ll find there.”

Such a great Day 3 yesterday at #PAXEast! Started with a beautiful La Llorona inspired game of D&D with @openthegatesgaming.bsky.social, then part of an awesome panel with @takethis.org, and wrapped up by running a fun festival adventure of @coyoteandcrow.bsky.social. Exhausted but grateful 💙
Table with an array of character sheet materials, grid map, D&D miniatures including a custom La Llorona figure, dice tray, and polyhedral dice. Five people sitting onstage at a long rectangular panel table smiling for the camera. Five players smiling for the camera standing behind a gaming table with blue sparkling placemats, a dice tray full of d20s, and the Coyote and Crow rule book.

Here are my game descriptions for Games on Demand featuring @coyoteandcrow.bsky.social and Raccoon Sky Pirates from @hecticelectron.bsky.social ✨
Games on Demand Heather Silva (she/her) Thursday: 8-11:45, Friday: 1-5, and Saturday: 6-10 Coyote & Crow 3-6 Players, 4 Hours, Teen+ Coyote & Crow is an Indigenous-created, futuristic TTRPG that introduces players to an alternate world in which the land masses known as the "Americas" were never colonized and a mysterious element known as the “Adanani” has altered much of the land and its people. This particular adventure, designed with beginner players in mind, involves some carefree fun, small town mystery, and friendly competition as characters spend the day at a local festival in the fantasy continent of Makasing. Raccoon Sky Pirates 3-6 Players, 4 Hours, All Raccoon Sky Pirates is a rules-light, silliness-forward TTRPG. You and your junkyard friends have built an unlikely flying ship out of trash. Tonight, you'll fly it across town, break into a suburban house, steal every last treasure you possibly can, and try to make it back home before the humans catch you or your ship explodes. But things keep going wrong in this game of slapstick and potentially-violent fun because, well, you're animals!
