Tonight I’ll be running Dragon of Icespire Peak (and using squares) like the good ol’ days! 🏔️ —not a sponsored post, but Nimble did send me these books for free.

My best Ribbet impression:

It's legit wild how quickly Daggerheart has become my go-to fantasy RPG.

#daggerheart has arrived! Thank you Darrington peeps.

this is a fantastic source that I linked in my article I wrote about alternatives to generative ai "art" -- a guide for those who want to stop/avoid using AI, but aren't sure of alternatives: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

AGE OF UMBRA is a new 8-episode #Daggerheart series coming May 29th to Beacon, Twitch, and YouTube! GM and Age of Umbra designer Matthew Mercer leads the #CriticalRole founders through a dark, survival fantasy undertaking, in which small communities hold fast against the darkness of a dying world.
