Festive season was super busy! I'm still gonna be pretty swamped until end of Feb too, so things will still be drip fed here for a while 😅 BUT! I've got loads to share, including my first merch & plans for a one shot/quick start zine, so I'm gonna get back to it! 😊 #ttrpgsky #worldbuilding

Teen Goblin just got their first 6th form placement offer 🥰 so freakin' proud.

No one holds a grudge like a dumped narcissist.

Satire is dead and so is my patience.

Watching Tales from Woodcreek, feels like a cosy dark fantasy Crystal Maze, with Woll as the Maze Master. Bloody brilliant 😍 #actualplay #talesfromwoodcreek

Giving myself a break at the moment, still working but from now til Jan, I'm dialling it back to allow for the cognitive load of the festive season (including 3 b'days 😂) & alleviate #burnout. I'll still be posting just even slower lol #writesky #ttrpgsky #neurodivergentsky #disabledcreator

Redesigning this guy in the hopes of making a little figure out of cuttings, to keep me company at the stall 😂 #originalart #procreate #orignalcharacter #artsky #craftsky

Hm I need a trading name. I am 100% stumped. Better stew on this for a while 😂🤣 #soletrader #overthinking

Oh wow so it's been a great day over here & I'm weirdly happily overwhelmed? 😅 Just got myself on the path to running a stall at a future event 🥰 🧵(1/3) #indiettrpg #artstall #oneshot #conceptart #ttrpg #indieartist

Loaded up inkarnate to work on maps today, none of them will load. Emailed support, currently just trying to figure out what I do if I've lost 5 years worth of WIP maps. So how's everyone else's Monday? 😅🤣 #worldbuilding #ttrpg #mondays #fml

Another nugget of Hublin Gold, while trying to remember what Twisted Metal is called: Hublin: "You know, Tinfoil Cavaliers." Me: ".... Twisted Metal." @gemstonecolin.bsky.social, comedy genius.

Got my kids camping players a themed dice set each, to give them next session ☺️ These are for Wand's player, the runaway grung ranger. Hope he likes them! #d&d #dungeons&dragons #dndsky #ttrpgsky #kidsttrpg #ttrpgcampain #dnd5e

I set myself a fun little worldbuilding prompt list for my hols 😊 2 weeks of Alagrestia! Day 1: 🌊 🐙 Creature of the Corucean Ocean🐙 🌊 Kreelpers, living clumps of kelp, with some pretty nasty gnashers. #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #worldbuilding #amwriting #writingcommunity #concepart #artsky

Been taking a break from writing for the last few weeks, prepping for our holiday to the Netherlands 😊 The house is finally sorted, lots of ND friendly storage, got rid of a load of crap in the garage, packed for the hols & cleared the various doom piles! I'm now thoroughly ready to be on holiday 🤣

With my new duds and enough energy to do my makeup, I have reached my final form.

I can't stop making minifigs, someone send help. This lot are Metallic Mephits, employed as guards by the Zenith Repository, Volucris' most prestigious bank. Names L to R: 1. Grobble 2. Grubble 3. Frank 4. Gribble 5. Grebble 6. Grabble #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #amwriting #worldbuilding

NPC Parade! 🎉🧵(1/3) Presenting the Troupe Leaders of: "The Orchestral Peoples Parliament for the Prestigious Proletariat." The sitting Gov't of The Vermillion Kingdom. #sff #disabledcreator #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #worldbuilding #amwriting #writesky #Heroforge #ttrpgminifigs

Been having lots of fun with the Cuisimancer class, I've got concepts for three sub-classes so far. 1. Soup Slinger 2. Savoury Savoir 3. Protein Pummeller Each has their own style of combat, unique bonuses & lots of flavour 😜 #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #amwriting #sff #worldbuilding

Fellow DMs, how do you prep a new session at short notice?🧵(1/3) Due to player illness, I had to throw together a session for 2 on Sunday & it was great! I used a dream scenario, as its an isolated narrative with lots of space for improv. #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #dndsky #dnd5e #foreverDM

Ol' Gnashy is a living relic. Sprouting before the Karst Emergence, surviving The Time of Tumult & settlement of The Great Karst City, Gnashy has thwarted numerous attempts on it's life. This poses a bit of an issue for Camp WiWa, who insist on using its home as a training ground.🧵(1/6) #ttrpgsky

Been fiddling with a Cook/Alchemist 'class' from Vernai, inspired by Hublin's skills in the kitchen; making delicious meals from next to nothing 😂 Currently working on a 'Table of Cuisimancy Creations.' basically their Spell/Recipe Book 🧵(1/3) #ttrpgsky #sff #amwriting #ttrpgsetting #worldbuilding

Hibernation is going well, I've rested more, been more sustainably productive, felt less guilt/pressure & feel generally more comfortable. I've just opened my #discord to my friends & if it goes the way I hope, I'll quietly add the link to my bio in the near future 😂 🧵(1/4) #audhd #cripcoop

A little NPC parade! I'm pretty proud of these Troop Captains for Camp WiWa, I had a great deal of fun with the names 🤩 🧵 (1/2) 1. Mildwena Truffit 2. Greeb Drubbledroop 3. Poggin Mottlespore 4. Clatch Mossmallow

Before I really dive into "professional' GMing, I need more practice! So I'm writing a short campaign, based in Alagrestia (of course😂 )🧵(1/2) #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #worldbuilding #amwriting #writesky #DnD5e #dndsky

I've been working on Vernai since I began the kids campaign, new NPCs, expanding lore on The Order of the Wild Heart & Wild Wanderers, new maps (ofcourse) & 1st drafts of stories which were scribbled notes 'til now. I feel like it's really coming to life now 😊 🧵(1/2) #ttrpgsky #worldbuilding

You weren’t “too sensitive” You were overwhelmed by a world that wouldn’t adapt You weren’t “lazy” You were dysregulated, in a system that demands output over care You weren’t “fine” You were masking - because it was safer than being you. You weren’t the problem. The space wasn’t safe.

A few days into my #burnout hibernation, I finally realised I really do need a break & need to slow down overall. I've worked on Alagrestia pretty much every day for the past 5yrs, which has been fantastic in a lot of ways.🧵(1/4) #disabledcreator #cripcoop #autismsky #chronicpain #spoonie

Been working on my home a lot during my hibernation. I don't really like my house, it's tiny, badly made, overpriced & super not at all accessible 🤣😭 But it's what I've got & I'm grateful for it, so I'm making it the home I want it to be. We've got a ways to go yet but it already feels nicer ☺️

Hublin went downstairs to get me some ice cream & came back with a delightful spinach & chicken salad. Don't get me wrong, it's great, but he only made it because he forgot what he went down there for 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ #adhdsky #adhd

Session 0 of the Wildest Wanderers went brilliantly, kids had so many ideas & were thrilled when I said yes to all of them😂💜 They were instantly excited about the setting & story I pitched, which was a relief! See thread for the short pitch & their characters😊🧵(1/6) #kidsttrpg #ttrpgsky #dndsky

I have a post scheduled for later, feels weird letting it roll but normalcy is good. This morning without the little man is weird, but I've been sketching some happy little mushlins, so I'm doing okay. Thanks so much for all the love for Moomie, it genuinely meant so much to us 🩷 #conceptart

My baby boy passed away this morning quite suddenly. We are of course utterly devastated but thankful for the time we had with this beautiful little gentleman. My sweet sweet boy, tell Barry we miss him & we'll love you both forever.

NOW AVAILABLE: DUNGEON DUNCE WEEKLY #7! This issue asks the real question: What if @elonmusk bought @Wizards_DnD ? Spoiler: fireballs now run on rocket fuel & your DM's been replaced by @grok #ElonMusk #DnD #ttrpg redcapegames.blogspot.com

I'm starting my first kids ttrpg campaign soon! It's set in Vernai & I have lots of ideas to bring to session 0, I've been busy making NPCs, beasts & a more maps! 1 - Greater Sloq 2 - Mycelia Stemwart 3 - Vernai #sff #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #amwriting #scififantasy #ttrpgmap #dndsky 🧵(1/3)

I'm so happy to finally have all Volucris region maps done! Now, on to the hundreds more for the rest of the world 🫠 🤣 🧵(1/4) #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #ttrpgmaps #ttrpgdigitalmaps #digitalmaps #conceptart #sff #scififantasy #amwriting #inkarnatesky #writesky #writingcommunity

Time to stop being a stubborn git & accept I'm in burnout. I feel awful not posting, especially when I have lots of stuff to show! But I'm struggling with executive dysfunction, depression & fibro flares, so I'm taking an actual break but I'll be back soon 🤞😅 #disbledcreator #autisticburnout

Finally finished all region maps of Volucris!! I'm hoping now that my calendar is a little less hectic & I'm mostly recovered from travelling, that I can focus on my MH & Alagrestia 💜 #amwriting #selfcare

Not sleeping well this week so I'm dedicating today to naps, so I can rest up before travelling on Thursday. Finished another map last night though, which means I only have one more to go until Volucris is 100% mapped out! #ttrpgsky #ttrpgcommunity #amwriting #sff

IT IS DONE. The largest map I've done at this scale & I didn't have a definitive layout when I started 😅 but I'm happy with the results! I'm 40% through the next one, which I've been putting off 😬 but it's coming together nicely. #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgmaps #inkarnate #conceptart

I am bloody determined to get this map done 😤 I'm happy with it so far but there's still some details to add. Fingers crossed I can exploit my #hyperfixation to get it done soon 😂 #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky #ttrpgsetting #ttrpgmaps #inkarnate #neurodivergentcreator #audhdsky #digitalmaps #dndmaps
