Check out the project I'm working on with @Homebrewandhacking. It's a micro-setting of oracles, city-states and philosophy to add to .

I don't know why I'd never thought of this before, but Trivial Pursuit's pies would make great physical representations of Blades in the Dark style clocks

My blog is light on updates while I do paid D&D writing for the Kickstarter.

But, several things there are relevant to your game right now.

Expand third places beyond taverns. Every culture has its own. Use them to help your table feel alive.

Team sports existed in the times that inspire the game. Add things like mob ball and town ball because your party should party like it's 1099.

Possibly my favorite 5e background I made due to it having a personal backstory.

An odd little thing happened yesterday, the movie bumped back into the top 10 movies on Paramount+ worldwide, mostly fueled by viewing in German-speaking nations.

@bedirthan@dice.camp avatar

The movie released to streaming in the US 112 days ago. It remains in the top 10 most watched movies in America and has been since day one.

112 days this movie based on nerds rolling dice in basements remains relevant to audiences.

112 days of the absurd humor, dual plots with only one advertised, dragons that are ultimately irrelevant to the story.

It's only this week. It may fade away, but seeing my youth brightly featured in positive light brings huge smiles to my teenage face.

Use maps of abandoned third places to show how different the older ages were from the one in which you are currently playing.

This adds depth to your or world.

Faster Purple Worm, Kill, Kill!

Is a great concept and the opening is brilliant.

Me: I can write up fantastic sports in 300 words.

My editor, a much smarter person than me: Try 1500

Me: Struggling to get under that mark

It's a weekend in to discover new music.
My discovery is Cumulus, out of Bellingham.
They'd fit right in the Friends soundtrack. Perfect GenX folk rock angst with a two member band

Finishing a campaign, with an epilogue and everything, is immensely satisfying. A group of people met, on average, every other week for two years, and developed a story together. We reached a satisfying conclusion -- and then the group said to me "What's our next campaign?"

Let's do some narrative character creation using polls!

You are now on the path to being a hero. Before your life of adventure you always played with a yo-yo*.

*I always start these with a prompt. Sometimes a weapon, or a spell, etc. This time I'm using a trinket.

There's a massive spike for D&D in 2022 and 2023 (much bigger than the pandemic)

tl;dr - I've become a horse-race style observer of the movie because I see the numbers as a proxy for acceptance of a hobby that remains just on the edge of pop culture.

Per my friends at Ride of the Valkyries, OL Reign are less than 3,000 tickets away from exceeding the NWSL single-match attendance record for Friday night's final home match of the 2023 regular season.

You may have missed this but the stretch of I-405 between and is completely closed this weekend from 10p Friday to 5a Monday.
Avoid the area. Avoid the detour as Coal Creek is slow enough without the traffic.

Please boost

Lots of companies and players are seeking ways to add Feats to Backgrounds, but for me the more interesting space is to add Cantrips to Backgrounds.

That Farmer? They should know Druidcraft.
The Smith? Produce Flame
The Urchin? Prestidigitation

If you want a "broad magic" fantasy world give everyone a non-combat cantrip

Since I'm on an orc roll this week, I though I would follow up with a look at the expanded orc pantheon I came up with to go along with some of my brainstorming.
