One thing I really like about Destined is how easy it is to mix with other Mythras settings. You can pull combat options, magic systems, creatures, or even whole scenarios from Mythras fantasy or sci-fi. Supers one week, cosmic horror or street crime the next. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Mythras #OSR

Continuing with superhero RPGs, Destined really caught my eye. It’s built on the Mythras d100 engine, so it keeps that grounded, skill based feel even with super powers in play. Combat stays dangerous, choices matter, and heroes feel human. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Mythras #OSR #BRP

Been checking out Stalwart ’85 and I love how indie, simple, and fun it feels. Core rules are lean and you’re in action fast. Has that old-school flavor but doesn’t bog you down in pages of math. Right now it’s PWYW! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4... #TTRPG #OSR #Stalwart85 #TTRP

Remembering my old copy of WG5 Mordenkainen’s Fantastic Adventure, now lost to time. I read it back in the day and it stuck with me(never got to run it). Greyhawk politics, rival factions, and a dungeon that cared more about choices than combat. Smart play mattered here. #OSR #DnD #rpg #ttrpg

A friend of mine is about to run Cyberpunk Red, so my brain immediately went into maker mode. Planning to build a simple bullet counter app in Flutter. Just taps, mags, and running out of ammo at the worst possible moment. Feels very on brand. #TTRPG #CyberpunkRed #Flutter #Code #RPG

Coming out of a long hiatus, vacations are awesome, and I finally cracked open Pirate Borg. It’s fast, brutal, and dripping with cursed seas and bad decisions. Same doom vibe as Mörk Borg, but with rum, cannons, and mutiny. Easy to run, easy to die. Love it. #TTRPG #OSR #PirateBorg #RPG

Happy New Year( in advance) to everyone!

Merry Critmas! #ttrpg #rpg #osr

Best NPCs are always the accidental ones. The guard with no name. The innkeeper you made up in five seconds. The random merchant with a weird voice. Players latch onto them, and suddenly they matter more than your carefully planned villains. Funny how that works. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

First adventure memories hit different. Mine was Palace of the Silver Princess many decades ago. Died to a surprise crossbow bolt from two female thieves in a side room, Candella and Duchess. Lesson learned fast. What was your first run? #TTRPG #DnD #RPG #OSR

I steal ideas from video games all the time for my RPGs. A cool boss fight, a quest twist, a weird location, even the pacing of a dungeon. Games already solved a lot of problems we face at the table, so why not borrow what works and tweak it. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Thinking about my holiday gaming plans now that December hits tomorrow. Hoping to squeeze in a few sessions, try a winter one-shot, and maybe catch up on some books I’ve been meaning to read. Slow month, cozy games. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Thanksgiving-themed adventure ideas, keeping them weird, fun, and OSR-friendly: • A harvest spirit demands the “true tithe” this year: something more than grain. • A pilgrim caravan arrives with blessings… and a curse hidden in their wagons. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

Happy Thanksgiving! Grateful for my players, the stories we build, and the chaos that comes from one bad dice roll. Every campaign turns into a memory worth keeping. Hope your table’s full of food, friends, and critical hits. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR

Been using AI lately to build quick NPCs and sample dialogue for my sessions. It’s great for prep , fleshes out side characters fast, helps find their voice, and gives me lines to tweak before game night. Always good to have a few surprises ready. #TTRPG #DnD #RPGPrep #RPG

Don’t punish players for choices, just let the world react honestly. Help someone today, they might save you later… or resent the debt. It’s not about being fair. It’s about making things feel real. #TTRPG #RPGDesign #RPG

Games hit harder when choices matter. Not just “good or evil,” but why someone does it and what it costs. A burned bridge, a lost ally, or the town that remembers what you did. Consequences give weight to dice rolls. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR

Coyote & Crow is a sci-fi fantasy RPG developed by First Nations devs, where colonization of the Americas never happened and indigenous peoples advanced into high-tech societies. Players explore a world of tradition, innovation, and destiny shaped by their communities. #ttrpg #FirstNations

Been playing with chronomancy and time travel in my current game, and it’s wild how it changes everything. NPCs can lie across time, prophecies turn into puzzles, and choices echo backward as much as forward. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Hey folks, do us a solid and help push the great folks at @stillfleet.bsky.social past their last stretch goal! Danse Macabre now in its last 18 hours! www.kickstarter.com/projects/wyt... And check out our interview! youtu.be/D5UiyCDwTt0 open.spotify.com/episode/3wLz... #ttrpg #osr

Tharizdun is the big bad of my current game, so I'm revisiting The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth. Strange relics, old powers, forgotten lore. It quietly sets the stage for darker stuff like the Temple of Tharizdun. You feel the shadow before you meet it. Lots of worldbuilding. #OSR #DnD

Evening crew:

Running a Halloween one shot in a few hours.

Halloween RPG ideas: • A village traps ghosts in pumpkins to keep the dead quiet • A masked festival where one mask belongs to something not human • A house that grows new rooms every night, each one stranger than the last Spooky works best when things feel almost normal…almost. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

Going back to the original Ravenloft module. Still one of the best adventures ever written. Tight location, smart clues, real tension, and Strahd feels like a character not just a stat block. Gothic dread done right. #OSR #DnD #Ravenloft #RPG #TTRPG

DungeonDraft DungeonDraft has become one of my go-to tools for map making. It’s fast, clean, and doesn’t feel like “software gets in the way.” You can knock out a whole dungeon in one sitting without fighting menus. Great for homebrew prep. #TTRPG #Mapmaking #DungeonDraft #RPG

Online DM Tools There are so many great DM tools online now. Things like Donjon for quick generators, Kobold Fight Club for encounters, Owlbear Rodeo for quick maps, Kanka for worldbuilding, and Fantasy Name Generator for NPCs on the fly. Prep has never been easier. #TTRPG #DMTools #RPG

I’m reading the playtest rules for Ruttigers RPG and it’s shaping up to be something special. It keeps that clean OSR backbone but layers in a mythic tone that feels fresh. The art? Gritty storybook vibes that pull you right in. instagram.com/richardwhitters rhoringhad.blogspot.com #OSR #RPG #TTRPG

Of the most recent games I have read, this one really made me consider the rules lite aproach.Tombpunk is a rules-lite grimdark fantasy game built for fast play and bleak stories. Character creation takes minutes and the tone leans hard into ruin, rot, and desperate survival. #TTRPG #OSR #Tombpunk

Or maybe NSR is more your speed: • Cairn • Into the Odd • Electric Bastionland • Troika • Tombpunk • Knave Same spirit of play, just looser rules and faster table time. #NSR #TTRPG #RPG

Looking to start with OSR? Some of the most popular OSR games right now: • OSE (Old School Essentials) • Basic Fantasy • Dungeon Crawl Classics • Lamentations of the Flame Princess • Labyrinth Lord • Swords & Wizardry These keep classic structure and old school feel. #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

OSR vs NSR comes up from time to time, and honestly I see them as cousins. OSR leans into classic play: rulings over rules, exploration, danger, and player skill. NSR keeps that energy but strips things down even more and goes rules-lite. Both chase the same feeling #TTRPG #OSR #NSR #RPG

One of the best lessons from Elden Ring is how mystery drives exploration. You don’t get a lore dump , you get a hint, a ruin, a symbol, a rumor. The table fills the gaps with curiosity. Players move because they wonder, not because they were told to. #TTRPG #OSR #EldenRing #RPG

Elden Ring bosses work so well because they aren’t just “a big enemy.” They’re fallen legends with history. When players learn who they were before the fight, the battle hits harder. Tragedy makes the monster memorable. #TTRPG #OSR #EldenRing #RPG

If you want Elden Ring style in your campaign, try these hooks: • A ruined city that still worships a dead god • A knight cursed to wander until someone remembers his name • A relic that grants power but erases pieces of the bearer’s past That tone goes a long way. #TTRPG #OSR #EldenRing #RPG

Elden Ring is a goldmine for TTRPG ideas. Mysterious ruins, fallen kingdoms, tragic demigods, and strange magic that feels more like myth than spells. The world tells its story through hints, not speeches, which is perfect for tabletop play. #TTRPG #OSR #EldenRing #RPG

The Evils of Illmire is a great example of how to do a small sandbox right. It drops the players into a troubled town and lets them uncover what’s wrong at their own pace instead of pushing them down a railroad. #OSR #TTRPG #Illmire #RPG

The Mystara Gazetteers were something special. Each book took a nation from the Known World and made it breathe, maps, politics, history, culture, even holidays. They turned the setting from a backdrop into a living world. #DnD #Mystara #OSR #RPG

Following up on the Mystara post, here is a short list of online resources: -Vaults of Pandius(Pandius.com ) -Classic Mystara (classic.mystara.net ) -Mystara Player’s Guide (www.rpgmp3.com/mystara-play...) #OSR #TTRPG #RPG #MYSTARA

If there’s one module that defined adventure for me, it’s X1: Isle of Dread. That blue-cover map was my first real taste of exploration. A mysterious island, dinosaurs, hidden villages, and secrets beyond the horizon. #DnD #OSR #IsleOfDread #RPG

Mystara was my first love in D&D settings, long before Greyhawk. I still remember those maps from the Basic and Expert sets , sprawling kingdoms, hollow world theories, and flying ships powered by magic. It was weird, colorful, and full of wonder. #DnD #TTRPG #OSR

Its too early...

I wasn’t ready for how much joy Electric Mangrove gave me. The setting is strange and vivid, but what really blew me away was the vinyl LP format. Music on one side, GM tools on the gatefold. It’s a game you can hold, hear, and play. #TTRPG #IndieRPG

NEW (FREE) GAME FORTHCOMING: SPINE is a dark solo ttrpg about losing yourself in a book. In SPINE, you are a researcher who has inherited a strange book from an estranged relative…

Indie publisher Backwards Tabletop has released SPINE, a solo TTRPG where the book is the game, and you must deface it to survive. The beta is free for a limited time.

Mutants & Masterminds is another popular system. D20 system. I’ll be honest, I’m not fond of the complexity around feats and abilities. Too many choices that feel more like system mastery than storytelling. Other games do powers in simpler, cleaner ways. Sometimes less is more. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG

Another Superhero rpg gem is Time of Crisis for Mutants and Mastermnds from Green Ronin. Time travel, team-ups, and villains from across eras. It really captured the “event comic” vibe. Perfect reminder that superhero adventures can be just as epic as fantasy modules. #TTRPG #SuperheroGaming

Superhero RPGs often get talked about for their rules, but the adventures deserve love too. Day of the Destroyer for Champions is a must. Dr. Destroyer threatening the world, high stakes, and a mix of combat and moral choices. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Champions

Happy Hump Day, Hippies! Don't let this happen to you!

Mork Borg Zines The other thing that makes Mörk Borg shine is the zine scene. Heretic adds new classes, monsters, and strange tools. Ferretory brings tables and treasures. Solitary Defilement even lets you play solo. #TTRPG #OSR #MorkBorg #Zines
