Would people be interested in a desktop application to designs TTRPGs with support for master pages, custom fonts and text styles, baseline grids, and what not. But, a thing more "accessible" than Affinity.

A layout software with stronger opinions essentially.

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a #ttrpg actual play group to run an introductory scenario for my game, Undead Paradise.

Following the zombie apocalypse, the undead have reawakened with their memories and identities restored. Equipped with this new freedom, the zombies now explore the wastelands.
