Thaemin’s Guide to Gods and Miracles: Review
Thaemin’s Guide to Gods and Miracles is the fifth of Chamomile’s kickstarter series of 5e zines. This one is focused on a divinity and gods, a consistent miss from most RPGs. I was pretty excited to back this one, based on my assessment of his other works. I’ve got a hard copy like normal, andContinue reading “Thaemin’s Guide to Gods and Miracles: Review”

The SR 16 team just wrapped up a game jam for their game, Space Street. Essentially an open call for submissions for RPG products related to the Space Street game with some Steam giveaways to the winners.

K20 – Who do I play as
A core component of K20 is that the PCs all know the math. This goes for the monsters as well.

Scourge of Darkness
A player in my home 3.5 game came to me asking for a custom item. It sounded really cool, so we came up with the Scourge of Darkness, which his character will craft next session.

Brac’s Guide to Piracy: Review
Brac’s Guide to Piracy is the fourth of Chamomile’s ongoing series of kickstarter 5e zines. Each of which is focused on a specific topic of D&D, this one, obviously, is focused around piracy.

K20 Tiers

Its not ground breaking, and various editions have used different levels of directness when talking about them. In 3.x, one hits level 5ish, and is expected to prestige class. In 2eContinue reading “K20 Tiers”
Apothecaria: Review
Apothecaria will be my first solo TTRPG. I’m mostly in the games for the shared storytelling and in person tabletop experiences. The whole solo thing really missed me for a while. Then COVID happened and all my in person games just shut down. It got me re-evaluating what I find important in a game, andContinue reading “Apothecaria: Review”
