A huge thanks to everyone who backed Hooked on Crafting for Draw Steel! The campaign was a success, raising over 240% of the funding goal ⚔️❤️ To celebrate, I wrote a post talking about the experience and giving creators a few tips for their own crowdfunders. thedicesociety.com/crowdfunding...

Tales from the Tavern - Year In Review: In 2025, we hosted 32 events and 88 games. 448 participants (108 unique individuals) played 24 different ttrpg systems. Our top two systems were D&D with 21 games, and Draw Steel with 25!

New Goblin Points featuring @sammcgurran.bsky.social and @subharup-roy.bsky.social . Together they're running a crowdfunder for A Refugee's Guide to Nomas, a setting set in a psionic city, with a lava river for a sky, and districts in a constant power struggle. GoblinPoints.com/2525 #drawsteel

@doubleproficiency.com makes the coolest books.

This is a quest for 7th level heroes, so I think it might be some time before you can play it with full Codex support. But I am sure that @djordi.bsky.social and the team at @dmhubvtt.bsky.social are grinding to get those higher levels fully integrated!

To Defy the Stars is now implemented into the Draw Steel Codex courtesy of @faanvolla.bsky.social! Incredible work.

Biggest ttrpg lesson of 2025: collaborating with artists, writers, graphic designers and editors is not only immensely fun, but can be creatively rewarding in the most unexpected way. I wish I had learned this sooner.

NEW on the Blog: Skill Challenges. You know 'em. Or maybe you think you know 'em. Let's take a look at what they were, and what people thought they were. Three games came out this year with some improvements to the tech. Let's look at those, too! barilleon.com/skill-challe...

Too real.

100% accurate. Not only with payout delays, but customer service silence. My creator dashboard all of a sudden turned black and white without communication and I can't seem to turn it back into color. It makes it practically impossible for me to review the bar graph analytics.

One day, I would love to make a supplement all about acorn-folk and their dark gall brethren. In my dream-vision, David M. Bird (www.youtube.com/@davidmbird) would do the cover, and the interior art would be a mix-up of @cgroenink.bsky.social and @tomkilianart.bsky.social.

Sunday morning.

In the black wind the stars shall die, and still on gold here let them lie, till the dark lord lifts his hand over dead sea and withered land.

The Summoner is *truly* unique. MCDM and @thewillyboo.bsky.social created something singularly exquisite here.

The Turks pay me a golden treasure, and yet I am poor...

It's done! Thank you to everyone who supported the project and brought us to $6K. I'm looking forward to going into the writing cave and making this the best possible adventure I can.

5 hours left! wtf we're super close to $6K 🙃
