That one must be one of my favourite campaign frameworks in my collection. What are your thoughts on the changes to the base Monsters and Other Childish Things experience proposed in Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick Manor?

Congrats on such a great work of art, what an excellent way to deliver a powerful message.
An A4 poster with a 'No Kings', anti-establishment theme. Around the illustration is a medieval style border in a maroon colour with gold accents. The accents are flowery with a focus on the Carnation which is very significant for the portuguese revolution of April 25th 1974. The illustration itself depicts a group of heroes of all ages and themes (Fantasy, superhero, vampire, sci-fi, modern), standing on a raised stone platform covered in carnations. This platform has a statue that is being pulled and broken out of it's usual spot. The statue depicts a stoic king with a D12 shaped artifact in hand. The kings head and legs have been broken, the statue is covered in red paint and crows steal the statues crown. Crows are the TTRPG Events mascot. On top of the statue, the Modern hero, wearing a loose yellow jumpsuit holds on to the statues hand and lifts carnations above her head. the carnations have a bright red glow and a 9 inside a D12 shaped sun. the 9 stands for the 9th year of Rolisboa. The heroes on the platform are interacting with each other and the crowd that gathered around, celebrating the fall of the statue and the king. In the background are great buildings in blue and red tones blurring into the sky that forms the silhouette of a carnation. The building has a plethora of portuguese graffiti. "Abaixo a Tirania" (Down with Tyranny), "Tirania nunca mais" (Tyranny Never Again), "Reis Não" (No Kings). Crows all around the piece drop carnations from the sky. The piece has a greenish flash of light behind the Kings head as it breaks that overlaps over the pictures frame but not the people. At the top the events logo next to a D12 is placed on a golden plaque covered by floral motifs. The events name "Rolisboa" is a portmanteau of "Rola" (Roll) and Lisboa. Next to it is the year 26 and below the words "Jogos Narrativos" (Narrative Games) At the bottom of the piece are the place and date: "Biblioteca Palácio Galveis" "19-20 Setembro" (September)
Had the opportunity to illustrate the poster of the biggest TTRPG event in Portugal for @rolisboa.bsky.social
It was an absolute blast and honor to be able to try my hand at such a fantastic theme for such a great event

Amelia thanks you kindly for your purchase
Zephyr is a game that has altered my brain. I find myself in consideration of it and all its wonders and horrors. It is a setting and system that truly will inspire you
If you've never come across Once Upon A Time, the ground-breaking narrative card game I designed with Andrew Rilstone and Richard Lambert, this is an amazing bargain for a really good cause and I recommend you get on it.
Infinite Revolution is a fast paced game of high hopes and dreams, as human comets use mysterious alien energies to fend off the void consuming all light, bringing all the energies of a bullet-hell to a ttrpg

So much new @theworldanvil.bsky.social stuff this week! Valraven (books, cards, dice, and more), the Monad Echo SRD, and Ruin! This really has put me in the mood to run a Monad Echo game, and while Valraven would need more reading time than I have right now, Ruin might just fit the bill.

I'd love to hear what you think!

I've stumbled earlier today for the first time on that book series. I was intrigued and now I regret deciding to go "nah, I can buy the ebook version" 😅
(Can't really return to the bookstore for it either, 'cause it's 3h away from here and I was only browsing while waiting for public transportation)

Thank you! I must have somehow failed to realize that the bond was also a form of tether, thank you for pointing it out.
