Friends! My first release for the #Daggerheart #ttrpg is live on itch! The Scholomance at Everspire is a dark academia campaign frame created for the Magic School TTRPG Jam. No twee houses or broomstick sports; yes gothic vibes and cosmic horror monsters. 2ndlevelbard.itch.io/the-scholoma...

Daggerheart to Heart Episode #002 What makes combat and action scenes in Daggerheart so fun to play? Nico and I discuss all things combat in Daggheart #DH2H youtu.be/267iuc3e7uU

The folks at @pocket-dimension.bsky.social are streaming a charity game of Daggerheart today to raise funds for the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund by The Women’s Foundation of Minnesota! 12:30 EST www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iKm...

Take your Daggerheart campaign up to the next level with the Menagerie of Mayhem, containing 35 new Daggerheart-compatible adversaries created by one of the game's designers! michaelrunderwood.itch.io/menagerie-vo... Also available on Heart of Daggers, with DTRPG coming soon!

what sucks is i'm seeing this energy filter to the retail side as well and less excitement about books that aren't *already* successes from booksellers! it's the WORST!!

My video on how to make and use dungeons in Daggerheart is now up on YT: youtu.be/B5gz7IOk0TU

I'm not believing this until I hear from people in the streets of MN and neither should you

On the one hand, this deal landing one week after @tolariancommunitycollege.com hosted a $600,000 fundraiser for Trans Lifeline highlights a cavernous gulf between executives and MTG's community. On the other hand, a stated goal of Universes Beyond is flooding the TCG with endless new customers.

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

If I were a publisher I’d be prepping for the big historical romance renaissance that’s inevitable in, oh, two to three years max. Swear to god, someone needs to give me an imprint to run, if only to put me in my place.

Live now! Settle in for a fun chat about making and using dungeons with the Daggerheart rules.

The thing about ebooks as a substitute is that it ignores two major needs of teen readers: autonomy (the ability to get a book without going through parents) and community (the ability to pass a book around to all their friends.)

We're delighted to share the cover and an excerpt from @ajhackwith.bsky.social's Goblin Market, a heartfelt new fantasy tale about what home and community are ultimately worth 🪄

This afternoon I'm talking about How to Make and Use Dungeons in Daggerheart. I've been building a Dungeon environment, so I'll share that draft and my thoughts about implementing this staple of fantasy rpgs. 1pm EST at twitch.tv/turbotango and then on YT tomorrow morning.

Environments are a GM's secret weapon! Our latest #GetYourSheetTogether episode is all about environments. Join us as we go over everything you can do with the four types of #Daggerheart environments; exploration, social, traversal, & event! 👀 https://bit.ly/4eUm60g

It is Navi's 40th birthday, and in accordance with the prophecies the bundle beacons are lit. All our ashcans are bundled together and on sale today for $25. If you're missing some back issues, or just want to finance Navi's crippling cake addiction, now is a perfect time. itch.io/s/180165/nav...

Age verification and social media bans are explicitly ways to isolate queer, neurodivergent, and abused kids.

My stream building a two-phase adversary that toggles between social and leader types is now up on YouTube! youtu.be/xagq3vT1H2Y?...

Tomorrow night, fear is the driving force as three hapless friends showdown against an unstoppable killer in a sketchy white van. Buckle up for the premiere of @dngnclub.itch.io’s HOW’S MY DRIVING, a Daggerheart hack starring @ohheyitsgina.bsky.social @annethegnome.bsky.social and Laurie Hernandez

Tales of Tony's house burning down were moderately exaggerated... So tonight join us as we sit down with Wythe from @stillfleet.bsky.social to talk about The Grit system that powers their #TTRPGs Blistering Critters Still Fleets Picar... Os And more Tonight we dive in on Procedures At Play

The horrors persist, but we gnash our shiny teeth, we rake our sharp claws, and persist harder. Celebrate Bad House RPG's 3rd Anniversary with a month of Grindhouse streams, benefitting our friend @rocketsandpens.bsky.social's goal to stable housing! Kicking off 2/6 with MH2, Blow the Man Down 🌊

I will be doing a short stream this afternoon as I work on some new adversaries. I am under the weather and would cancel entirely but I already skipped last week, so I want to do something lest I lose the favor of The Algorithm(tm). 1pm EST at twitch.tv/turbotango

Everybody has it backwards. Billionaires aren’t buying up these institutions to make money. They’re buying them to kill them. Same as the oligarchs destroying government and social programs and things like weather forecasting and regulatory bodies. They’re creating a world they control completely

Two canonically trans superheroes in the same book! YES!

The Crypt Has Opened! On Kickstarter The Crypt Has Opened is now on Kickstarter. With your pledge you will help us bring this wonderfully crafted and horror filled book to print.

OK, real quick. I appreciate the XYZ starter packs for what they are but if I just see a bunch of you fuckers show up cause it February but refuse to engage with Black people's art I am just going to get myself removed from those things. I don't need any more white "allies" I need accomplices

Today and tomorrow @worldchamp.bsky.social is giving %15 off everything in his store (including INSTANT STARSHIP) with the code FUCKICE and is donating half the proceeds from his entire store to local groups in Minnesota!

It really is worth understanding what an escalation this is by the feds to be teargassing the big family friendly march

Daggerheart to Heart Episode 1: Utility of Environments Join myself and @itsnicodegallo.bsky.social as we talk all things #Daggerheart every fortnight #DH2H youtu.be/ce1H_H6Ifv0

Here's a clip from the interview I did with BladeBound, talking about designing Solo Bosses for use with the Daggerheart rules! youtu.be/nilwqYvDd6A?...

Wake up, workers of the world, a new second-person plural pronoun dropped.

30 minutes in. $80,000 raised. absolutely unbelievable showing of love and support <3

Exactly. No one told me I was going to lose my job and be left behind if I didn't get a smartphone. I got a smartphone because it looked like it did a lot of useful things (and it does). If the tech is good, you don't need to threaten people to get them to use it.

HEY I AM DOING A FUNDRAISER FOR MINNESOTA RENT FUNDS AND GIVING AWAY A SIGNED ARC (advance review copy) OF OBSTETRIX THAT'S RIGHT YOU CAN HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES AND MAYBE GET A FREE EARLY SIGNED COPY OF MY BOOK

Today is a great day to call your Senators and say NO more funding for ICE at 202-224-3121

This is a big part of why I moved laterally into game design.

Today is a double dose of awesome for supporters: First, paid patrons get a exclusive first look at art for the Oakheart subclass for my custom Daggerheart-compatible class of the Warden [Sage & Valor]. Art by @haclif.bsky.social www.patreon.com/posts/148814...

I hope we make it.
