Message
Still trying to catch up – day 4: message. When I run games I do not make props. Sometimes I wish I was as I think the physicality of it, the overall impression would benefit the game. The core of the message would be enhanced with all the possible details on the prop – the…

Tavern
Belated day 3: tavern. When I think of this classic fantasy gaming trope – starting in a tavern; i think of my characters. When i make them I do it of a simple and quick idea – usually an archetype with a simple twist, not even a twist, a curiosity I like or find internally…

Prompt
Still catching up, bleated post for day 2: prompt. As a player I love getting a prompt. The feeling of the first thought entering my mind, and then thinking about it – how can it be twisted to useful, but also an unexpected response. For the same reason I love handing them out to players…

Patron
First in a series of belated posts deals with the patron prompt. I skimmed a few answers already, and like most, my mind is also drawn to the broader, in game, role of a patron to the characters. The evolution of the patron, the quest giving wizard, the Mr Jonson … is interesting to me.…

Get ready for the most corny response to the person you’d like to game with prompt. Ready? It is my best friend. We go way back. Unfortunately we grew up and our schedules, and kids schedules, and life schedules … all the schedules prevent us from finding a time slot to play some games.

Awesome App
Another easy prompt. My pick for an awesome app is the Drivethrough RPG app. For a good long while I was bringing my digital files in my Dropbox. But then I broke my setup and was to lazy to fix it; so I tried their app. And it is good and solid. Handles PDFs OK,…

Great Gamer Gadget
This one turned out to be very easy. I like my tabletop gaming as analogue as possible. Not that I am a technophobe, quite to the contrary, but I need a break from screens and all the digitalia in my daily life. And that break is my tabletop experience. Some years ago I bought Ultimate…

Marvelous Miniature
The first mini I fell in love with was from a batch of minis my brother bought for his friends. He told me I could keep it for myself, and to this day I am sad I have lost it. An elf with an eye patch, bow in hand, a hooded cloak. Other than that…
