We had to say goodbye to one of the long dogs this week, so the shop is on hiatus for a bit while we process and adjust to our quieter household. Your understanding and patience are appreciated 💜

Sorry for the silence these last few weeks! Been a bit rough over here so just getting through the work that needs to get done and not much else. Hopefully will be back to making more general stock and opening more comm slots in the new year!

😭🫶🍵🙌

Over the weekend we smashed that $800 goal and it was a great game to finish off the series of #ttrpg one shots for #charity. There is still the opportunity to grab a @longdogdice.com gift card if you choose the incentive when you donate but remember, there is only ONE chance to do so! <3

Eight charity games in seven days - another solid week of fundraising over here at Sword & Key!

CHARITY HYPE! The final #ExtraLife #ttrpg stream is Saturday, Dec. 20th at 7pm Eastern. We're $21 away from a @longdogdice.com giveaway! $10 - One player gets a reroll $25 - Roll on the Treasure Table (Limit: 4) $30 - Rerolls for the table $75 - Insert a Complication (Limit: 1) Please repost ♥️

Horizon's Call sets sail again now (3pm PT / 6pm ET)! With our crew marooned in the Shadowfell and a leviathan horror slithering between them and salvation, they do what they do best: make friends, gather info, and cause problems - but this time, with ghosts! Watch live on twitch.tv/sword_and_key

Horizon's Call is back TODAY at 3pm PT / 6pm ET! The crew are stuck in an oceanic Shadowfell. Here they meet those who have long-since past, including Captain Cross. The original owner of Scarlett's ship and her defacto father-in-law had some thoughts... Join us live on twitch.tv/sword_and_key

"I wish you were at more conventions!" Me too! It often surprises folks to find out I apply to a LOT of them and get a lot of rejections! There are shows I'd love to be at but they're too expensive by the time I travel w/ all my stuff so it's not worth the application.

Playing with some new flakes for geodes!

We're shipping these out daily! This stylish little bundle of wonder is packed full of adventure and is the perfect size for slipping into a stocking <3

This is some good ASMR for Dice Day! I should make more jumbo d20s, I haven't for a while...

Happy National Dice Day! and thanks to @longdogdice.com for these awesomely big d20s!

Happy December! We have a pretty full schedule with one-shots, two-shots, three-shots, and more!

Weird, it would seem some discounts have appeared on the site that will automatically apply to your cart for anything ready to ship 👀 I blame Grif. This is the face of a menace.

Nightmares on the Frontier is back in the saddle NOW (2pm PT / 5pm ET)! Events of a personal, professional, and even existential nature are piling up for the Ten Cent Legion. Will a train heist get them back on track? Or, will it derail them completely? Live on twitch.tv/sword_and_key

Hey artists! Have you checked how easy it would be for a client to contact you? Do you have an email in your bio? On your website? On your portfolio page? Don't assume people will spend time digging for info. There are artists out there who are just as good as you AND have their info listed.

I'm on the hunt for artists/illustrators that specialise in landscapes and scenery, or who love drawing nature! 🌷🏞️🌳 I'd especially love to hear from BIPOC artists, but this is an open call! Self promo welcome, please comment with examples/portfolio links if possible ☺️ #art #illustration

We're only $85 away from our next goal let's gooooo!
