Now, who would've thought that the hardest part of writing my second Daggerheart campaign frame would be coming up with *thirty-one* social NPCs? I maaay have bitten off more than I can chew with this goal, folks. Time to recalibrate and trim the numbers back down to a manageable level.

Okay, this is bugging the heck out of me: a Latin word meaning something like hubbub. It can conjugate easily into a verb, and generally means the background noise of the populous. It's used in a piece of rhetoric somewhere as an advisory, as in "when this noise changes, be concerned". Any ideas?

I really should have learnt this lesson by now, but folks: Always. ALWAYS. Back. Up. Your. Work.

Aaaannd it's live! TERRASTORM: Borderlands by way of Daggerheart. @spenserstarke.bsky.social, I swear this is the last time I'll tag you in on this. But I'm so proud of what I've made! legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/5395...

Just out of curiosity, has anyone else published something through DriveThruRPG? I'm wondering what the general experience is like regarding approval times.

The absolute HORROR of submitting a manuscript for review and only THEN spotting a spelling error

I should prrrobably post something other than Daggerheart content on here, shouldn't I. Hhhhhow about the first page from the glorious doom that is my attempt to write a full feature script using trochaic octametric sonnets? Folks, I give you: THE TIDES INTOXICATING. Page one.

Look, this is just WAY too much fun: my attempt at making Callis in Borderlands. @spenserstarke.bsky.social, is she apocalyptic enough d'you think?

The Glorious Work continues! @spenserstarke.bsky.social - keen on some armour rules to go with the gun mayhem? (Some much more significant tweaking here; I've tried to standardize the progression of armour. To make up for it, I've put in some cool perks much earlier than they'd turn up in core)

Welp, I couldn't help myself. Here's a single page addendum to Daggerheart that'll hopefully help folks indulge in some Borderlands-esque tomfoolery. Gonna tag @spenserstarke.bsky.social, because you liked my previous post and I figure you might be interested.

So, uh. I literally took a week off work to play Borderlands 4, and I'm only just now hitting the 50% completed mark. I want to play this as a Daggerheart game SO. BAD. @spenserstarke.bsky.social, @therowanhall.bsky.social, any plans to make a BLesque campaign frame any time soon?

Inspired by someone on reddit, this is what I'm calling the "#daggerheart Moh Scale of GM Moves". Note that spotlighting an adversary (the Daggerheart equivalent of taking an NPC action) is only the fourth hardest move you can make.

Oh! For anyone that stumbles across this at some unknowable date in the far future: I GM'd my first game of #Daggerheart (and my second game ever) the other day. One session, four hours. Hard to say if I've got a good sense of the rules yet, but we all had fun so I'm calling that a victory.

Mechs are cool. Ice hockey is cool. Why not both? I've created a card game! Currently in a playable state, but definitely still in development. Very keen on getting enough attention that I can kickstart my way to paying for some decent artists. sean-joseph-mccann.itch.io/mecha-hockey...

Time for A Very True Story! Over the New Year break, I sat on my ass and played video games so hard I broke my computer chair. That's it. That's the story. I mean, I was already going to get back in shape this year, but damn if that moment shouldn't have been the start of the script, right?

Figured I might tentatively put some of my #TTRPG work out there. Here we have the individual character sheets and the group motley sheet for KUNG FU GUN DUNGEONS, a game that is (hopefully) as crazy as it sounds. Inspired by Borderlands, FiTD, and Streets of New Capenna.

You know what? I'm actually gonna brag about this: I made a proper Ramen broth from scratch for the first time ever, and it was D E L I C I O U S.

It occurs to me that I'm being followed by a fair few folks who might have questions about Aotearoa-New Zealand. I may not necessarily have the answers, but I might know someone who does. So, standing offer: ask any question about A-NZ, big or small. Indulge your curiosity!

Alright, I've gathered enough followers; does anyone want to try having a conversation? Let's see. What's your favorite comfort food? I have this thing where I roast a bunch of potatoes, then lay some bacon, cheese, and bell peppers on top and roast it all again.

Alright, let's see if I can jog the follows on this app: I'm a #TTRPG nerd with dreams of being a #screenwriter that just wants to tell #stories for a living. Happy to follow and be followed by anyone that falls anywhere in that (very damn big) Venn diagram.

Further to my dreams of finding my way to LA: I'm told there are three things that keep writers going. Two of them can be found in this luxury chocolate bar (the other one would get me arrested). This is a shameless bribe. Read my work, get luxury chocolate. Ask me how!

S'pose I should make my existence here known. Keen to connect with any and all professional writers - especially in L.A. but happy to go global.
