Day 3 of #TTRPGMaker – I got started with RPG design back in 1981. My copy of Keep on the Borderlands was missing its map. I drew my own on strips of excess wallpaper from one of my dad's home improvement projects. I also designed a few new levels of Frogger while I was at it.

#AprilTTRPGMaker Day 4. My job is to create a melody of game rules and story that allow players to be someone else for a few hours (or several someones, for DMs). I think of it as cosplay without the costume and a character you created.

Day 5 of #AprilTTRPGMaker – favorite thing i’ve worked on is a project we have not yet announced. Really excited for it. For stuff i can talk about, Xanathar’s Guide. From process and teamwork to final result, things came together.

#AprilTTRPGMaker – favorite game mechanic.
Not going to cheat and say one I worked on, so I will instead say a tie between fronts as presented in Dungeon World and the die mechanics of FFG’s Star Wars games.

I love that you pointed this out @aquelajames . This is a fruit of maturity that is rare in our world.

Soft sound behind me, and as I whirl, blade frantic out
Something comes flashing out of the dark
And before I’ve breath or time for one last shout
It bites chill and deep, forever ending my bark

One of THOSE moons is in the sky
The night is damp and still
Eerie dancing feylights rage fearful and high
The ruined castle is burning again atop Haunted Hill

Desire devours you, unless you devour what you desire.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on a order of the ancients paladin where the ancient is the Kraken. Maybe a triton or aquatic elf? triton would be fun to match with that

I think like a Dark Tower thing – pursuing a hated enemy who has escaped to the strange realm of dry land
