Sorcerers do magic that's orange, Wizards do magic that's blue or green and Warlocks do magic that's purple, I'm sick of having to explain this to you.

Hey folks! I'm looking for a digital ink wash artist, preferably someone skilled in traditional Korean art styles like sumukhwa, or other Asian ink wash techniques. This would be commissioned work involving both landscape and character art for an upcoming TTRPG project.

The only part we do real-time is if they're in line behind Karen and she won't leave until she has spoken with the manager.

Your quote is worthy of display on a T-shirt or a coffee cup or something. I’ve been laughing about it all morning.

Do I need another TTRPG?
No. Well, maybe. But not really. Unless it’s special.

Am I buying this?
Yes. Hell yes.

Late-night sketch I made for @itsmetovri.bsky.social of their Draw Steel character, Velkhuredath. 🐲✨

People are always scared of the unknown or unfamiliar. Bad faith actors like to abuse that fear.

"But what's going on in a trans person's brain/home?!" stops being a usable threat by TERFs etc, once people know the answer is nearly always just "Warhammer."

Your d6 have rounded corners, YAY, but your d20 is sharp, BOO. (My opinions, ofc.) Can you make the entire poly set with rounded corners? I don't think I know of any crafters that can do rounded corners.

I'm the only one in the world that feels this way, but hear me out because I'm the first to comment. How about reviews of adventures and settings to explore?

How RPGs Became A Haven For Women in South Korea After a GamerGate-like incident in 2016, the industry doubled-down on inclusivity.

Our 2026 Pledge Drive continues and so here's more of our work, now un-paywalled forever as a gift from our subscribers.

In February 2025, we wrote about South Korea's RPG scene and its fight with misogyny.

Right? It's a bit disappointing to kill a giant by slowly chipping down it's hit points until a final blow of 1 HP drops it. SWADE wounds always have a dramatic finish.
