Another of the brand new factions from the Vaults of Vaarn 2E corebook: the (now renamed) Children of the Darkling Sun. Dream-weaving mystics who seek to make the waking world into a living nightmare vaultsofvaarn.com/2026/02/03/c...

a preview of a Major Faction spread from Vaults of Vaarn 2E. The Seekers have been mentioned before but not fully explained vaultsofvaarn.com/2026/01/30/s...

Newest Vaults of Vaarn 2E update ONYX LOTUS is out www.backerkit.com/c/projects/v...

Final touches on the Major Faction spreads today. PCs can have a Reputation stat with each faction, so here are some suggested ways of gaining reputation with some Major Factions

The Shadow of the Torturer.

One funny things that’s happened recently is my hidden ad targeting profile has realised I’m involved in D&D stuff and now my sponsored ads are exclusively for robes and armour

unbearable

One more apocalypse for VoV 2E. The victory of the Jigsaw Courtiers, supplicants of a mad Autarch who transformed himself into an undying tesseract of hypergeometric flesh. This the House of Leaves apocalypse where the laws of geometry get eaten away like termite-riddled wood.

Still think about him…

A few more Major Faction endgames. These are also all apocalypses of one kind or another. The Brotherhood of the Black Sun are trying to usurp waking reality and replace it with a dream, hence the change of format

Something I've been thinking about with Vaarn 2E is what happens if the Major Factions win? What would their ideal world look like? I think it's an interesting question that has helped me characterise them with prose

I'm relaunching THE MEAT GRINDER, my TTRPG writer's group, and structuring things to let us support 16-20 total members. For more info on how it all works and to let me know if you're interested, check out this form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

One of my very favuorite modern horror stories electricliterature.com/tiptoe-by-la...

Always hard to admit when you fucked up but don’t make my mistake. Denzels coins are not cryptocurrency, I lost all my savings and they also upset my stomach

I’d love to see a Paw Patrol prequel that tells the story of all the city council meetings where they decided to hand over responsibility for all emergency services to a child and some dogs

It’s super funny that you think I don’t recognise my own work. Completely divorced from reality.

If there’s no intent what is my writing doing in the text unattributed dipshit. Did it fall in there by accident. You’re talking in circles.

If there was no plagiarism then Nooras intent was irrelevant. So why bring it up unless there was actually plagiarism. You can’t keep your own argument straight. Bit of a waste of your time two years ago it seems

Lol so you tried to argue there was no plagiarism, backed down when you realised I have eyes and can recognise my own writing, now we’re splitting hairs over ill intent. You are a tedious fool who has decided to insert yourself into a situation you clearly don’t understand.

Wait so now there might have been plagiarism but I should’ve been sure of the thought process behind it. I thought you ran it all through a supercomputer and it gave the all clear. Keep the story straight

Funnily enough I know my own work very well and can tell if someone copy pasted from it then rewrote it to sound a bit different. There are numerous examples including stuff Marcia didn’t catch. Don’t be a fool.

Sorry next time someone steals my work, passes it off as their own, then sells it for a profit I’ll run it by you first to see if you think it’s ok or not. 🤡

I will just comment briefly to say I’m aware of the republished book. I’d reiterate that Vaults of Vaarn is published under Creative Commons and the book text encourages you to remix, edit, reuse the content.

lol

Turns out I had some @alfredvalley.bsky.social zines in a drawer after all so they’ve joined our @mothership.bsky.social collection

Just a regular man browsing regular zines

All the familiars

I am opening a shop

November Preview Draft of Vaults of Vaarn 2E is live. Includes new lair tables, treasure cache generators, Vault Fauna, d100 Exotica, and Fine Art and Jewlery generator tables www.backerkit.com/c/admin/proj...

Progress on my Vaults of #Vaarn game using the #HauntedPSX render pipeline. #Unity #Blender #PSX #PS1

I think this spread will be a big improvement for GMs of VoV 2e, although it does look like a bunch of tax returns. You can now seed treasure caches through a sandbox map, possibly with accompanying maps that guide to some of them

www.backerkit.com/c/projects/c... I will be writing an official adventure module for this game! It is called “The Wreck of the Katabasis” and will feature all my trademark motifs- dead god-monster flesh, lightless fathoms of abyssal water, an insular community of monstrous weirdos, etc

The first episode of my new series Truly Tradly Deeply is here! We dive into the evolution of the tradwife subculture, how hyper-feminine aesthetics are weaponised by the European far right, and why Phyllis Schlafly was a Lean In Girlboss 💅💖 on.soundcloud.com/srccAxW4hXnc...

Best city setting sourcebooks for tabletop games? I already have Blades in the Dark and Fever Dreaming Marlinko btw

Sorry everyone looks like I may be turning the world into Vaarn through some kind of ‘Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius’ style event

a horrid new threat for PCs in Vaults of Vaarn 2E: rival adventurers who level up in tandem with them

Another 'classic' spread reimagined

Reworking old spreads for the 2e Corebook this week

A new episode for your weekend! This time I'm chatting with @infrabeige.bsky.social about his anti-canon OSR TTRPG, Vaults of Vaarn! This was such a fun chat, go check it out!!!

Working on a “creators commentary” type post on writing the Shrike. Is there anything you would like to know about writing an Award Winning Adventure Module TM
