Promotional graphic for a talk titled Above The Table with Wythe Marschall: Remixing Genre, Setting, and Narrative Structure in TTRPGs, presented by the Tabletop Arts Fund. On the left is a portrait of Wythe Marschall, a bearded man with glasses and short brown hair, wearing a blazer and plaid shirt. On the right, the text describes the talk: tabletop designers often struggle to integrate genre, setting, and gameplay loop into a cohesive experience. Marschall will explore “thematic integration,” citing game studies scholar Sarah Shipp, and walk through major genres, settings, and narrative structures with examples. The event is on March 26, 2025, at 9:00 PM EST / 6:00 PM PST, streaming at twitch.tv/tabletop_af. The graphic has a decorative red and blue border and features the Stillfleet Studios logo.
