So I've been running this tabletop RPG called Monster of the Week and I made this for my players in recognition of the monster they beat. The Rawhead was a good monster to start out with; gross, creepy, just the right amount of intelligence. Excited for what I have planned and what my players will do!

I'm currently working on a #Tarot-like deck of cards designed for #improv in role-playing games and storytelling. I have a first set of 22 cards sent to the printer for proofreading, and I'm getting ready a second set for a total of 67 cards.

Would someone be interested in proofreading/playtesting it?

The description they put together.

Why Mouse Guard Handles Failure Better Than Any Other RPG

I’ve written about Mouse Guard’s qualities before. It’s one of my favorite systems, from its core dice mechanic to its setting and flavor. But some things are better appreciated with a bit of perspective, and ...

Being an old school D&D player I don’t agree with the basic premise of people rolling for stuff and failing means awkward silence, frustration, or dumb rerolls. 1. Why are ask for a roll in the first place? Let them talk their way through the situation. This, too, is playing the game. 2. Why not let them try something else instead? Thinking about other solutions at the table is also playing the game. 3. If none of that works: why are you designing mandatory challenges that must be overcome?

So, what if I told you there's a RPG Kickstarter about mice and other small critters living hidden from our modern society and going on adventures. It's made by @jskellogg, who seems to.have already successfully kickstarted a different RPG. Check out the cute sample illustrations, too! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1537872810/rodent-rangers-small-heroes-big-adventures

TIL There’s a Tumblr dedicated to control panels. This one is “The Office Of The Future - New York World’s Fair, 1964”

Did you miss the news yesterday? The #RodentRangers Kickstarter has launched!

This is the game where you can be a mouse (or other small critter of your choice) and go on adventures under the noses of oblivious humans.

If any of your followers might be into that, gimme a boost! Get the word out! Here's the link:

I gripped my sword, streaks of sweat chilling my lower back and aching, trembling arms. The barbarian proclaimed the Eldritch Beast dead, but she'd been wrong prior so I waited until verification from the Cleric was uttered. I promptly crumpled to me knees, sword clattering loudly on the stone floor.

When I had declared, over breakfast, that today would be an adventure, I had anticipated a long day of answering angry e-mails. NOT THIS.

A story about ruins isn’t about the people who once lived there. It’s about your idea of who they were. It’s about not knowing, about ambiguity.

And yeah, I think there’s an inescapable trace of colonialism baked into it that you have to address somehow, because you’re extrapolating from your life onto what theirs must have been.
