Who's writing up the next cults for Wolden? This guy! The Lion Sodality is a group of "Regency" gourmands and adventurers. A bit like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, but also for taboo foodies. With an awesome art piece by Alysa Avery.

Read all about it! And check out the incredible special offer! www.rascal.news/wolden-a-for...

🦖 116/150 in my #Indie #TTRPG starter pack! 🦖 How about for this #TTRPGThursday, we try to hit capacity in this bad boi? Check the pack, if you're already in here, share, tag & recommend some creators who should be! If you're not already in here, let me know why you should be! (No AI!)

Hey folks. Money's tight but I've got artists to commission and pay, so I'm running a special offer on our zines. Buy any 3 (or more) and get them half price! Only €8 shipping worldwide for up to 3 zines too. Please help me spread the word! shop.mottokrosh.com/collections/... #ttrpg #indierpg #osr

New map for Violent Nemorous Passage completed. Preview soon. #woldenrpg #ttrpg

Just finished writing up a brand new grimoire for the adventure that will be published as Wolden Issue 2 (the digital and online version will be free for backers of Wolden Issue 1), all to do with truenames, and I'm quite happy with how varied and weird the spells came out. #ttrpg #woldenrpg #osr

I never have less fun in a game than when I have to make a perception check.

Now that backers have their copies, Wolden, the rules-light, flavor-heavy RPG of witches, and things of the forest, is available as physical zine and PDF. mottokrosh.com/machinations... 48 hand illustrated, beautiful pages, shipping worldwide. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #osr #nsr #humanmade #indierpg

I'm sure by now you've heard that KNOCK! #5 is live on Kickstarter. And like the 4 volumes before it, it's jampacked with #osr goodness. And somehow they've squeezed another of my articles in too: a most unusual merchant, in a most unusual conveyance. www.kickstarter.com/projects/896... #ttrpg #nsr

Fulfilment for Wolden Issue 1—A Forest RPG of Wayward Cults is fully underway! #ttrpg #woldenrpg #mottokroshmachinations #indierpg #zinequest

Sometimes you adapt your text to your layout, and sometimes you insert an upside down piece of another illustration and dot a sprinkling of occult symbols to honor the text and make the layout your bitch. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #zinequest #layout #graphicdesign #rpg (Art by Henriette Boldt.)

Barbatos’s Exotic Pets is one of seemingly endless number of stalls at the Night Market. A dapper huntsman with dark eyes and an exquisite goatee smokes a pipe by a stall composed of stacked iron cages. The cages contain all kinds of animals. Each and every one of them is black as night.

Little sneak preview of my upcoming #MörkBorg zine "Sinners." Character art graciously provided by @unitsix.itch.io

The product page for Wolden is now up on mottokrosh.com/machinations.... I've made sure there are some spreads you haven't seen before, and while I'm still working on collating the pregens and stuff to add, they will be there soon. #ttrpg #woldenrpg #rpg #osr #nsr #zinequest

I’m going to be live in about an hour, running some Wolden for ArchoniaFest! www.youtube.com/live/wtsA_Mf...

Just over a week ago we published this Actual Play of our upcoming zine Wolden, a Forest RPG of Wayward Cults. Much drama was concocted, many laughs were had. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJWN... #WoldenRPG #ttrpg #rpg #indierpg #MottokroshMachinations #zinequest

"If you're a cannibal and you consider the rest of your party potential food, and the cleric casts Purify Food and Drink, does that render the characters extra young, supple, and tasty?" #dndmoments

You can levitate, but only if done dramatically. From the #WoldenRPG Actual Play. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJWN... for the whole thing. #ttrpg

I had fun riding the expanse of another character's back and dabbling in forest cults as an absolute queen in this new #ttrpg - check it out for an earthy taste of Wolden.

It is with limited-reach fanfare, but great, genuine joy that I can share the stretch goal Actual Play of Wolden—A Forest RPG of Wayward Cults. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJWN... #woldenrpg #ttrpg #rpg #kickasswitches #thingsfromtheforest #zinequest #zimo

Uploading the #WoldenRPG Actual Play to YouTube currently. This game was enormous fun, thanks to its fantastic players. It should go live at the weekend, at which point I'll shout about it on all my socials. :)

A little over 200% funded at the moment! And the Actual Play stretch goal down! Can we reach the next in the final 3 days? Wolden: a first RPG about wayward cults, rules-light, flavor-heavy. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mot... #ttrpg #procraft #noai #woldenrpg

Like all my RPGs, Wolden is designed to be easy on the GM. But don't worry players, I've got you too! How about traits, powers, and equipment, ready to print, cut, and stick on your character sheet? #woldenrpg #ttrpg #rpg #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo #lazygm

I feel like I should post about this Kickstarter again, because all the involved artists are very human, and effing excellent: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mot...

The Purgis Pact are pleased with current levels of funding. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo

Coming right off a reply on a thread about marketing, I want to highlight that the latest update on my Kickstarter talks about stretch goals and has some more preview spreads! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mot... #ttrpg #rpg #indierpg #woldenrpg #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo
