Some articles* get stuck so firmly in my head as absolute go-to resources that I forget others exist. If anyone has any favorite copywriting articles (for games), lmk :) *Today's renewed hyperfixation is @explorersdesign.bsky.social's copywriting article: www.explorersdesign.com/slay-word-ko...

There's one glaring issue with Draw Steel: it's so good that now it's all I want to play, but I have to finish writing my 5e supplement 😂😭

On today's episode of The Dice Society Podcast, I talk about the two new classes coming to #DrawSteel after the core rules: the Beastheart 🐗 and the Summoner 💀 Watch on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcatcher ⚔️ youtu.be/dV0tLsOitMM

The #Free5e Core Bundle is open to the public! Get all 3 WIP manuscripts—Player’s Guide, GM Handbook, & Free Range Monsters—100% free & open! Download now!

Is it just me or are regional effects in D&D both 1) very cool and 2) underutilized? Anyways, I think it's fun to give predators subtle effects, like dust that makes your throat dry and your skin itch in a way that can only be soothed by submerging yourself in cool water—where the monster waits.

Holy crap! This Draw Steel Crowdfundr looks awesome. I just backed it. It's almost funded! Let's do it. fnd.us/Gryzmithrak-...

I'm excited to announce our upcoming level 1 adventure for the @hellomcdm.bsky.social Draw Steel TTRPG: The Great Thaw of Gryzmithrak Spire. fnd.us/Gryzmithrak-... In collaboration with @storytellingco.bsky.social for the @crowdfundr.bsky.social Tabletop Nonstop event.

I'm making #D&D5E subclasses for Exoecology for Monster Hunters and this monk subclass is one of my favorites. This subclass art was done by the talented @meowtricia.bsky.social! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar...

I have no words.

tiktok is officially down, so this is a great reminder to please find and support the creators you loved on there so that they can continue to make the content you love!

As a devout lover of mysteries and TTRPGs, what system or adventure should I play?

OK, this came up in discussion again, and I’m curious: Non-cis-dudes in TTRPG that you would consider *authorities* and *experts* in the field. Bonus if they have a public-facing project (podcast, channel, blog, etc) For example: @wildrosemage.bsky.social & @eldritchblep.bsky.social HORIZONS.

This was intense and I'm so excited for more! @thekellhop.bsky.social and @rahrah.bsky.social crushed it.

The Roll20 addon for Murders at Lorelahc Manor is now live on @drivethrurpg.com ! Grab a mask and treat your players to a lavish underground ball and a chronomancer's party gone wrong in this elaborate murder mystery campaign for #dnd5e via @roll20.net. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...
