I'm really enjoying the 12 Days of Christmas at @elventower.bsky.social
I was thrilled to talk with Teos and Shawn at @masteringdnd.bsky.social this week. We talked about Designers & Dragons: Origins, of course, but dug into some nice history too: Greyhawk's dungeons, Jack Fred, Palace of the Silver Princess! (The show is nicely indexed, so you can hear what you want!)
Terrific in-depth discussion here with @shannonappelcline.bsky.social on @masteringdnd.bsky.social. Not just about Designers & Dragons: Origins but also covering Shannon's early career in gaming and how he got started documenting the history of TTRPGs.

List of years around 1591 DR. Full text at Alphastream.org
Really fun to read the new #DnD Adventures in Faerun book! Iโm amazed the team seems to have advanced the calendar by 7-9 years to 1501 DR. Previous 5E adventures are now in the rearview mirror. We skipped some years and some fun years yet to come!

Reshare: Even as TSR and D&Dโs early periods receive the gold-standard treatment, thereโs much more to the hobby than one game and one company. But are those histories actually important? What is at stake if we forget them?

I assume #ttRPG players here have heard of Alarums & Excursions, the RPG APA which shut down earlier this year?
Well, a bunch of A&Eers set up a successor APA, in PDF form, called Ever & Anon, and you can download the first four issues here, for free:

Reposting for the weekday crowd. The Castle Automatic was a result of my efforts with the #Dungeon23 project!
Give me a room number, and I'll give you a teaser for the room's contents.
Here's my folder of personal RPG campaigns, things I worked on for my own purposes. Lots of good memories.
This is basic but I'm doing a lot of economic history right now for Tides of History and the reason prosperity and growth matter is because they usually make people's lives better: having enough to eat, access to shelter, avoidance of violence and massive stress, that's what economies are for.
5. Transgender advocacy organisation T-Net has released a statement welcoming the Sapporo Family Court's decision, and professing the hope that "courts across the country will continue to make flexible rulings, based on the lived realities of transgender people."
Hope you got your Staedtler pen set ready!
Today we are proud to announce our next crowdfunding campaign. Award-winning historian @shannonappelcline.bsky.social examines the roots, artwork, and lore behind each and every product released by TSR for OD&D, AD&D 1e, and Basic D&D with his latest effort, Designers & Dragons: Origins.

Poster for "Jawz - The Musical"
It's almost showtime.
Pleased to announce that my report for the @leidenasiacentre.nl, on Japanese LGBTQ+ politics, has been published!
In this publication, I cover some of the latest developments concerning key policy issues, such as Japan's lack of marriage equality, and analyse factors influencing policymaking.
Part of my possibly unfortunate fixation on the "medieval" part of "medieval fantasy" means that I would like to see fewer (or no) D&D characters with surnames, and more should have lineage-names ("Ragnal, Erik's Son"), epithets ("Halfdan Worm-Tamer"), or place-names ("Aethel of Badwall").

The central character is a woman with long white hair and holding her fist cocked back as lightning crackles around it.
