Dougal's been GMing for me for over 20 years now and his adventures are always a treat.

Dougal is an excellent GM, and some of my most memorable gaming experiences have been around a table he's helming.

This is a really exciting adventure that I'd urge people to check out.

Parliament of Owls - Dougal Cochrane | DriveThruRPG Parliament of Owls is an adventure for the Dolmenwood RPG by Necrotic Gnome. It's designed to be a monster lair dropped into any Dolmenwood hex situated near a river. The lair consists of a set of rui...

Hey gang, my second Dolmenwood adventure lair is up on drivethruRPG. It features a fractious gang of spooky witch owls occupying an ancient deorling temple along with their shadow minions and some brainwashed prisoners. It's a good time!

A screenshot of an email from an ad agency to Evil Hat Marketing:

Hey Evil Hat team, 

Promised this is the last time you’ll hear from me.

We are wrapping up generating content on the house. The AI studio is starting to get fully booked with our paying clients, and I have strict orders to stop promoting this come the weekend.

I figured Evil Hat might as well get some work out of us at no cost while you can.

Want in before we close it up? 

Best,
[redacted]

And then our reply:

Hi [redacted],

We will never use AI for our games or for our marketing. It's toxic to our customer audience and it's an ethical violation of the hard work put in by the human artists we hire to illustrate our books and the human writers who design our games.

In short, it's not "free work" it's theft.

Feel free to take me off your mailing list. Hope you turn around your business model because frankly, your current approach sucks shit.

-Tom

Abigail's Wedding by Doogface A 7 room dungeon lair for Dolmenwood

I wrote a small 7 room dungeon for Dolmenwood! It's designed so you can drop it into a hex with ease and has hooks, some fun items, lots of interactive fun and a spooky bride.

You can grab it PWYW here.

Maybe not super important right now, but I’d love to see the TTRPG people with massive platforms say literally anything about what’s going on in this country. There are things in this world more important than just protecting your money.

They were very loud in their party exit - this was why the body count went so high on the car chase - 5 encounters!
