The mail made my day: I was supposed to receive this a little over a YEAR ago. Filed a missing mail report after the first week late, USPS eventually told me they gave up. Yet somehow, some mail person followed through.

My pal DNDShorts is running an incredible charity giveaway for the UN's World Food Program. Check it out! Donate here: sharethemeal.org/en-us/challe...

"Just tell them" is such an underrated piece of advice for telegraphing dangers in RPGs. "How can I hint that the hallway is trapped? How can I hint that if they defeat the dungeon lord, they become the next dungeon lord?" Just tell them. Tell them out loud. With your words.

FB marketplace does it again my friends! Choice batch of Rush with a hard-to-find early Genesis tape as a treat 🤌

This is awesome! Love to see folks already getting creative with Delve :) ...and yeah I, too, am anxiously awaiting the books to FINALLY arrive!

Thank you to whoever makes the ad banners on DriveThruRPG! 😊 Another thanks to the folks who have left nice reviews! Death At Helfast Spire is currently the #3 Daggerheart title on the site! Check it out, links below! 👇

Whoa!! 🤩

Put this guy in your RPG setting ASAP:

I wanna be JP Coovert when I grow up

I love this picture of me

Wonderful news from the Kobolds!

Lex is crushing this cover! —Daggerheart level 1 module coming soon!!

Love this perspective

I made art! 🎨 It’s for the upcoming PDF version of the #Daggerheart 1st-level one shot I wrote and ran for Professor DM, “Death at Helfast Spire” —keep an eye out for it! …see what I did there? 👁️

I was laid off from Wizards of the Coast, but I'm not going to stop making content. In fact I've just begun. www.patreon.com/c/toddkenreck

Well, as folks 'round here know I've been trying to think about where to put stuff in an easy-to-find, easy-to-manage, not $$$ (for me or readers) place, while keeping a small wall that lets me take some risks. I thought I could punt this to Future Em, but it was a Big Week last week, so.

Acompañen hoy a @elbardodeldyd.role.ar @federicomuller.role.ar y @leonmarcilla.role.ar en esta charlita especial con @bobworldbuilder.bsky.social ✨️💜 Thank you Bob! It was a pleasure for the team and we can't wait to see Delve!

Daggerheart is ranked 98 out of all books sold on Amazon US. Congratulations @darringtonpress.bsky.social #daggerheart

Daggerheart “Colossus of the Drylands” kinda implies the existence of “Lil Guy of the Wetlands” just sayin 🐸

Your weekend dnd homework is to read these spells:

Did you know that you can fit ~40 standard sized playing cards, five dice, and a rules sheet printed on the back of a J-card inside a cassette case without posts? Do something with this knowledge.

Book 12 of 2025: Found this at a local bookstore. I recognized the author name from an anthology of Cthulhu mythos tales, and the opening flap sample was too extreme to ignore! The story the sample came from was very Lovecraftian in both the good and bad ways. The other two were sufficiently odd 👍

Daggerheart translations a-comin'! darringtonpress.com/new-translat...

Agreed! I've heard other contract-savvy folks say the DPCGL is fine/standard, but at best, the vibe is still off. The long-term success of Daggerheart, like any RPG, depends on indie creators being comfortable creating for it without feeling like they must hire a lawyer to read the license first.

They actually made an abacus for Daggerheart Obligatory: “called it”

I’ll make a better post later but I got laid off today :( I’m looking for any leads for long term/full/part time work doing art direction, layout, or similar work. I have 10+ years commercial art experience, and 3+ years of art direction experience. 📧: [email protected] 💼: naladraws.com

Memory unlocked

Tonight I’ll be running Dragon of Icespire Peak (and using squares) like the good ol’ days! 🏔️ —not a sponsored post, but Nimble did send me these books for free.

My best Ribbet impression:

It's legit wild how quickly Daggerheart has become my go-to fantasy RPG.

#daggerheart has arrived! Thank you Darrington peeps.

this is a fantastic source that I linked in my article I wrote about alternatives to generative ai "art" -- a guide for those who want to stop/avoid using AI, but aren't sure of alternatives: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

AGE OF UMBRA is a new 8-episode #Daggerheart series coming May 29th to Beacon, Twitch, and YouTube! GM and Age of Umbra designer Matthew Mercer leads the #CriticalRole founders through a dark, survival fantasy undertaking, in which small communities hold fast against the darkness of a dying world.

Several RPG books I’ve read in the last month or two. Not counting these in my “books of 2025” but here’s a micro review of each:

Books! It’s been a while since I made a books-of-2025 post, largely because of this bad boy:

I recently ran the #Dimension20 Never Stop Blowing Up game system for a one shot and it was a blast! I made a video talking about the experience which you can check out here: youtu.be/b8uJa2mRHMk

Alright you tapeheads, check out this treasure I just got from FB marketplace!—of all places lol It’s a 1988 4-hr BBC radio play of the Hobbit. Probably the coolest 15 bucks I’ve ever spent.

Help me choose the background music for my Dungeon Crawl Classics one shot at Green Dragon Fest! I can only bring a handful of tapes. The adventure is a fun dungeon crawl, no other context necessary. I numbered them to make it easier to comment, but you don't have to use them.
