Happy Free RPG Day! Our entry is Attack of the Fly Folk, a flycanthrophic adventure, originally first published in Ultracosmic 1 from Wind Lothamer! Grab it at https://rpg-trader.com/products/5606/attack-of-the-flyfolk or as bundle at https://rpg-trader.com/products/1025/free-rpg-day-2026-bundle

Got my prints of @yochaigal.bsky.social’s Cairn 2e today, both because I finally wanted a physical version of it and because I wanted to try @rpg-trader.bsky.social’s POD quality (well, Lulu’s), and they’re looking good! Glass of absinthe because I’m back from work travels and it’s hot and it’s yum.

Just uploaded a new product to @rpg-trader.bsky.social, and added it to the Free RPG Bundle that's coming next week. It's going to rock. 🤘 #ttrpg #osr #nsr #hypertellurians

Lara and Lena shamelessly being used to bring awareness that the #BIRCON Early Bird Ticket sales will end on 22nd June 2026. #Berlin #event #ttrpg

A written interview with @mottokrosh.bsky.social is now live on my blog, talking about their ZineMonth project "Knightcore". www.sabregamesandcards.com/post/zimo202... #ttrpg #dnd #zinemonth #zimo #indiezine

For the Knightcore Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mottokrosh/knightcore-the-rpg),  Karen put together a nice behind the scenes slideshow from the photoshoot: https://www.instagram.com/p/DUlOUEcjd3n/ #ttrpg #knightcore #castlecore #rpg #indierpg #zinequest #zinemonth #zimo

In Knightcore you can play as an Anemogene, Lacustrine, Herb Mavin, Changeling, Fair-Chained, or Prodigy of String and Needle, all powerful traits. But your Knightcore Aesthetic Score is your most powerful weapon against chaos. #knightcore #castlecore #ttrpg #rpg #zimo #zinequest #zinemonth

Enter a dark and chaotic world where the knights, clad in flowing silks and gleaming armor, are the only beacons of light. Search "knightcore" on Kickstarter! #knightcore #castlecore #ttrpg #rpg #dnd #indierpg #zinequest #zinemonth

Follow the Zine Month account! #zinemonth #zinequest #zinetopia And here's my addition to the tradition: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mot... #knightcore #ttrpg #rpg #castlecore

It is an age of darkness, uncertainty, and chaos. Would-be kings, violent tyrants, and bloody barons bring war to isolated fiefs, leaving destruction and death in their wake. The only source of succor for the people is the knights.

Written up ~1200 words for premise and statblocks for #KnightcoreTheRPG for a New Year's Eve one-shot. Where in some RPGs statblocks are full of, well, stats, often rarely used, in Knightcore they are the barest of stats, but full of story, loot, and world-affecting options. #knightcore #ttrpg

Big update to Knightcore the RPG! Rules tweaks based on playtesting, and a big, flashy adventure! mottokrosh.com/knightcore. #knightcorerpg #knightcore #knightcoreaesthetic #castlecore #ttrpg #rpg #osr #mottokroshmachinations #indierpg

@josephrlewis.bsky.social @themerrymushmen.bsky.social I’m coming up to probably the final session of Raiding the Obsidian Keep, but one thing confuses me: The chanting priests in Avito’s room - why don’t they enter the private sanctum and complete the ritual themselves?

The constant struggle between finishing the ongoing project and starting one or four new ones.

@josephrlewis.bsky.social Hey Joseph. So I’m currently running your excellent Raiding the Obsidian Keep to play test my Wolden RPG with “classic” OSR adventures, and the party rescued and nursed back to health Patnuvia, the ancient vampire from the “orbital vampire city of Araveshti”. 1/2

New blog post: BIRCON 2025 Report https://mottokrosh.com/posts/2025/10/bircon-2025-report/ #ttrpg #rpg #mottokroshmachinations #indierpg #dnd

@zedecksiew.bsky.social Hey Zedeck. I’d love a copy if there’s still one available!

October 11th is the 2nd Berlin International Roleplaying-game Convention (BIRCON)! I'm one of the organizers, and In the run-up to the con we're doing a series of (hopefully) useful livestreams on our YouTube channel. The next one is on Friday 19th at 18:00 CEST.

Doing a live stream with Anna and Kara this Friday about GMing at cons, for #BIRCON. Watch it at www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bil... and ask questions in the chat!

Wolden Issue 1 was successfully kickstarted earlier in the year. Work on issues 2 & 3 has been continuing steadily. Here are the covers for all 3 (subject to change). Art for 1 and 2 by Henriette Bold, and 3 by Alyssa Avery. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #humanmade #indierpg #osr #rpg #MottokroshMachinations

If you're in Berlin in October and you like TTRPGs maybe check out Bircon! bircon.berlin (if while there you want to repeatedly wonder out loud and in a yearning tone why Ken Hite isn't a guest there no one can stop you)

With more games and exhibitors than ever before! Which, since it’s the second year, is more of a default expectation than a glorious highlight. But still.

For our Germans and neighbors close to Germany. We're organizing the second international RPG con in Berlin in October. All the info at bircon.berlin

The carousing table for the Lion Sodality is coming along. #woldenrpg #ttrpg #indierpg #osr

I've just published a massive update to the free, digital adventure for Wolden, which is part of the Kickstarter rewards. Check it out at mottokrosh.com/posts/2025/0... and subscribe to our RSS (or Discord at mottokrosh.com/discord). #ttrpg #woldenrpg #indierpg #creativecommons

Who's writing up the next cults for Wolden? This guy! The Lion Sodality is a group of "Regency" gourmands and adventurers. A bit like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, but also for taboo foodies. With an awesome art piece by Alysa Avery.

Read all about it! And check out the incredible special offer! www.rascal.news/wolden-a-for...

🦖 116/150 in my #Indie #TTRPG starter pack! 🦖 How about for this #TTRPGThursday, we try to hit capacity in this bad boi? Check the pack, if you're already in here, share, tag & recommend some creators who should be! If you're not already in here, let me know why you should be! (No AI!)

Hey folks. Money's tight but I've got artists to commission and pay, so I'm running a special offer on our zines. Buy any 3 (or more) and get them half price! Only €8 shipping worldwide for up to 3 zines too. Please help me spread the word! shop.mottokrosh.com/collections/... #ttrpg #indierpg #osr

New map for Violent Nemorous Passage completed. Preview soon. #woldenrpg #ttrpg

Just finished writing up a brand new grimoire for the adventure that will be published as Wolden Issue 2 (the digital and online version will be free for backers of Wolden Issue 1), all to do with truenames, and I'm quite happy with how varied and weird the spells came out. #ttrpg #woldenrpg #osr
