I always thought ochre jelly was such a dumb idea for a monster. And then I saw the inside of old coal mines. That stuff’s almost up to his knees.

Doesn’t feel glamorous but this is the kind of work that turns an RPG book into a tool imo.

Great mini quest

Peak dungeon design

They Who Consumes. “What do you mean it’s the size of a mountain range?” “I mean it’s at least the size of the Himalayas as far as you can see through the Astral haze. But you auto hit and deal max damage so that’s cool right?”

Old mine in Pennsylvania. Full of water, but frozen. Major dungeon inspiration.

One woman “black metal” piano project from Spain. Amazing. antinoe.bandcamp.com/album/the-fold

There we go little buddy. All better.

Clippy?! Clippy buddy! You’re back? What have they done to my boy? Tap on the screen Clippy! CLIPPY!!

@hilandergames.bsky.social very nice review on 10 foot pole for The Mourning Mansion today. Sounds awesome! tenfootpole.org/ironspike/?p...

I re-did and re-uploaded the Shogaku Ichinensei 1992 August chapter for #Zelda Link to the Past. This one has some of the best art out of all of them and I feel like that's saying something. I cleaned it and put it in its own folder at 2400dpi archive.org/details/zine...

A new adventure released on my Patreon. The Forest of Friendly Foes. It's about a town of trolls who's king decided they all had to be friendly from now on. It's a bit tense and they'd all really prefer to keep stepping on wizards and throwing sticks at kids.

Sundogs are magic.

I’m sick 😭 Someone tell me a better manic pixie dream girl than Kathryn Hepburn in bringing up baby?

I don’t know how the TikTok algorithm knows I would like to see Russian mechanics in tires while some garbled Soviet era sounding voiceover plays. But it does and I’m thankful. I didn’t even know I wanted to see that.

You will live to see man made horrors beyond your comprehension.

1 Art books thread I thought I'd write about some good how-to books for aspiring comics artists who want to acquire some academic, foundational drawing skills without spending tens of thousands of dollars.

Big dude is 7’6” supposedly.

Smoke drying tobacco is metal AF

Why didn’t anyone tell me about Weatherstar sooner? You can even turn on the music! weatherstar.netbymatt.com

Kids these days. SMH.

Swing a long sword in here why doncha

🎃Happy Halloween!🎃

“But RAW says we can travel 24 miles per day no sweat.”

“This calls to mind the trap of layout/publishing guidelines. They exist to add clarity, not to be followed rigidly in to the abyss. If the guidelines say to bold monster names, and you do so and it looks like that is MORE confusing, then don’t do that.” Yes.

Large creature, slowly but steadily advancing, feels like an under utilized TTRPG encounter. Pre-game that roll for initiative.

If real birds can look like this, your goblins probably aren’t cool enough.

I have never once wanted to talk to my computer

Have any bloggers compiled a list of TTRPG’s “eternal September” questions? You know, things like: “Are orcs people? (And what monsters aren’t?)”

Well said.

Think I’ve found my hobby that doesn’t scale.

Dungeon entrance

Oh wow these are great!

Yes.

Ugly question: but if AI “art” is so reviled, isn’t it being “a nail in the eye, a spike in the flesh, gravel in the shoe”, and by Ai Weiwei’s definition: art? Or is the rub that it only has that effect on artists and not the common man who consumes it happily/unknowingly?

“But who will help them write the blurbs?”

As a non subscriber I think this free sample is detrimental. My take away was: man gets scammed. Later is hired by his scammer as “the face”. Face brings in innocents like Mork Borg who were then harmed, but it wasn’t the face’s fault: pay to find out why. Is that a good spot to leave it?
