It’s the week before Christmas, last week was nuts, and I’m halfway through my morning coffee. Happy holidays, everyone! These are random TTRPG thoughts.
- I enjoy running hex crawls. Something is always happening and the tension is ever-growing. So much fun.
- I’m going to do my first giveaway when my channel hits 3000 Subscribers. I’m 620 away.
- When I’m running a PC I like quirky characters who tend to put others on edge. Though I think my next PC should be a well-adjusted straight shooter1.
- In 2023 so far I ran six systems and played in three. Next week I’ll play in a fourth. That’s a good gaming year!
- What’s your favorite type of NPC?
- I can’t believe I’m planning a convention in Palmyra, NJ this coming April.
- Intrusions, both GM and player, are one of the most fun mechanics in the Cypher System. Stuff gets weird, and the narrative twists are fun.
- Shadowdark is SHIPPING. AHHHHHHH!!!!!
- I had some players who needed to drop out of the BFRPG session last night so I called an audible and taught dragonbane to the folks who could be there. We made 4 characters and did to combat demos. They are terrified by monsters, but lived.
- I got my shipping notification for Brindlewood Bay. That makes me happy.

I mean, it’s fantasy, I might was well play “not me.” ↩

I recently got my Brindlewood Bay books. I think you’re going to be super happy with them. If playing Mavens isn’t your cup of tea, you might also look at Public Access. It’s a Carved from Brindlewood Game set in NM during the early 00’s. I’m a couple of sessions into a campaign and my players and I are loving it.

I reviewed the game last year from the PDF. It’s interesting. I think it needed to do a better job of explaining the mind-set of PBtA and it could use more art, but I do want to give it a try!
