About a week ago, @irny.bsky.social’s TERMINUS arrived, so beautifully wrapped I was hesitant to open it. I did start to unwrap it, stopped, and tried to put it back together to photograph it.

There's a conspiracy theory about the serpent people having a tunnel complex beneath Denver International Airport. This probably isn't helped by the inexplicable fake ruins that look straight out of "The Two-Headed Serpent" Pulp Cthulhu campaign in Terminal C like the Lost Continent of Mu.

My "Font of All Evil" is the @drivethrurpg.com Deal of the Day! Not just a deal, but 80% OFF until tomorrow. #RiversOfLondon heads out to investigate a gruesome murder scene in Ealing. Hoarding, a troubled type, and a foreshore trip. @chaosium.bsky.social www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...

I’ll note that both Darkened Hill and Dale and TERMINUS are lovely.

One final seasonal RPG scenario recommendation: if what you really want is a classic ghost story taking inspiration from the works of M. R. James, A Winter Haunting should be just the thing. Written for Cthulhu Dark, and adaptable to other horror games. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...

Ran session zero for a Coriolis: The Third Horizon today. A player asked the others whether they wanted to engage in political intrigue/factional politics and another player responded “Has there ever been a RPG campaign that didn’t get become about political intrigue?” They weren’t wrong.

I wrote a monster and some scenario ideas for @pelgranepress.bsky.social Fear Itself & The Esoterrorists. As it is 2025, I threw in some random tables. echovore pelgranepress.com/2025/12/11/e...

For Roll20 Con, I'm running the Alien RPG scenario "Mission FUBAR." The game does cost $5 per person to play, with all proceeds going to the Trevor Project and both Roll20 and Start Playing Games matching donations.

Check out our talk with @savagespiel.bsky.social as we discuss how to write an adventure for her Brindlewood styled game, Matrons of Mystery. The C word may be used, Cosy that is. open.spotify.com/episode/1EWQ... #TTRPG

Until the end of the Cörk Børd Kickstarter (in 48 hours time), all three Core Books — Cthulhu Hack, Sanction and The Dee Sanction — are 25% off on @drivethrurpg.com www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher...

I’m sad that so many Americans do t know what this photo shows or why it matters (metro train sign showing trains arriving within 2-4 minutes of each other, a mechanical feat of great proportions involving complex systems and systems analysis to deliver er us safely)

As part of Roll20 Con 2025 (Sept. 26-28), I'm running three online TTRPG one-shots: "The Swan's Way" (Swords of the Serpentine), "Mission FUBAR" (Alien RPG), and "Moonbase Blues" (Mothership). Each game is $5, with all proceeds going to the Trevor Project. Games described in thread.

Need some cuteness in your day? Here’s the Meeper. Now just about 6 years old, we found her one bitterly cold night when she was about six weeks old. She’s deaf, has a mild case of wobbly cat syndrome, and believes if anything is worth doing, it’s worth doing 211%.

The pace has quickened, the storyline is tight, and we have more questions than answers. Better get used to it. #cörkbord #mörkborg #nordicnoir #ttrpg www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

This is a very gratifying list to have appeared on, lack of a visible author notwithstanding. Also I somehow hadn't known that Dave Arneson also invented the prewritten adventure but of course he did: www.questportal.com/blog/ten-ttr...

Inspired by the Nordic Noir of Henning Mankell, Sjöwall & Wahlöö, Stieg Larsson, Jo Nesbø, and the doom-laden atmosphere of Mörk Borg, Cörk Børd is live on Kickstarter now. Check out the promo video! #NordicNoir #CörkBord #MörkBorg #RPG www.kickstarter.com/projects/all... youtu.be/s2PHsUXUHvs

CÖRK BØRD isn’t about causing bloodshed. It’s about uncovering who did. You don’t fight monsters—you chase them through witness statements, cigarette ash, and screaming silence. The grimness of it all? That stays. You’re still broken. Just quieter about it. www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

I played one of the sacrifices. It was a delightfully terrible ending.

Looking at my schedule for the next week,, I see I’ve booked a lot of TTRPGs. Tonight, I’m running The Dee Sanction. Sunday, I’m running two different sessions of Pendragon. Monday I play in the new Discworld rpg. Tuesday, I run Vaesen. Wednesday, I rest.

Two gentlemen, bothered ✔️ One globe, spun ✔️ One lute, soiled ✔️ One skull, stretched ✔️ — but no copy of The Dee Sanction: Monad Edition? Don’t be these fops. Embrace Elizabethan intrigue, supernatural horror, and plague-worthy plots. Late pledges still open: www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

Just reread Electric Bastionland and Into the Odd in preparation for reading Mythic Bastionland, and this very thin has been on my mind.

Summer 2021 at the Old Creamery Co-Op in Cummington, Massachusetts. We have a lifetime membership. Their blueberry pies are phenomenal.

It’s hard for me to get mad at my neighbor for letting out her cat when he’s such a Ferdinand. He doesn’t give a flip for the birds. .

This is so great! Thanks for sharing. I’ve been thinking about this a lot and just wrote this somewhat related blog about how we can combat cynicism with intention. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mind... Recognizing Kindness and Generosity Increases Them | Psychology Today

What Happens When You Trade Doomscrolling for Hopescrolling: Doomscrolling turns our phones into misery machines—and makes us see the world as a mean, scary place. Here's what happened when Jennifer Mercieca's students tried hopescrolling instead www.zocalopublicsquare.org/what-happens...

Mythic Bastionland is now up for general sale. Order directly from Bastionland Press: bastionlandpress.com/collections/... Or for those in the Americas, please go to: plusoneexp.com/collections/...

If you haven’t backed this, it is well worth it. I’ve playtested one if the to-be published scenarios, run scenarios from the game, and have followed its development via Walmsley’s Patreon. It’s a great, rules-light non-Lovecraftian weird cosmic space horror game.

From Father’s Day to the end of Free RPG Day weekend, Just Crunch Games is offering 50% off all core books for The Dee Sanction, Cthulhu Hack, and Sanction! Why not try something new? www.drivethrurpg.com/en/browse?pa...

A few images of around 17th St., NW and I St., NW (often spelled “Eye Street” in Washington, DC. The White House complex is two blocks south, the White House itself two blocks south and one block west. Note the “No Kings” sign partially covered by the notice of tomorrow’s imperial parade.

Here are the final Cosmic Dark stretch goals: if we reach £95,000, @helloalexroberts.bsky.social will write Little Changes. And, if we reach £100,000, the amazing @jaredlogan.bsky.social will write Shells. And that's it! What will I talk about now? Back the Kickstarter pls

I’m agog to be able to publicly announce that Ballad Hunters—my forthcoming TTRPG about singing and fighting magical folk ballads in 1813 England and Scotland—will be published by @pelgranepress.bsky.social! #ttrpg

They’re making an album. #caturday

Here's the third episode of my #MythicBastionland solo campaign: youtu.be/9m8hPauiMjo?... This session features a duel, ordered by the Rose Seer. Mythic Bastionland is an excellent game. I'm one year into my campaign with my regular group and have been having the best time with it. #ttrpg #solorpg

You’ve seen me say this before, so why are you waiting to back this amazing rules-light game.
