Meet Kid Imix!

The Mephit family has grown again! Dr. James and I are excited to finally meet our third kiddo and I’m looking forward to a future day when I can get a solid player group of… More

City of Mist Garage

This is a bonus update this week to let you know that Son of Oak has launched a community content program called the City of Mist Garage! I’ve been excited about it for a while,… More

Digging Up A Song of Ice and Fire RPG

This isn’t exactly cutting edge gaming but the A Song of Ice and Fire RPG remains one of my favorite games out there. Recently, Green Ronin put out a settingless version of the game system… More

Satyrine Resident Generator

I’m back today with another resource for your Invisible Sun game, a generator for neighbors and friends around the City of Notions. Use this for your own game to create scores of people around Satyrine.

Drinks in Invisible Sun

The surreal setting of Invisible Sun is full of amazing and strange details but one of the best ways to highlight the surreal is to juxtapose it with the mundane. In between jumping across worlds and sealing angels into bracelets, why not have your vislae stop off at a bar for a (mostly) normal drink?

Review of Escape from Dino Island

The Powered by the Apocalypse game Escape from Dino Island is a not-so-subtle homage to stories like Jurassic Park and Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World, but also island mysteries like Lost or (naturally) The Island. It’s short, punchy, and sure to fulfill your gaming needs, as long as those needs include running screaming from a T-rex.

Interview with Chris Gunning About The Hammer and the Stake

Today I’ve got some new detail on a project that I’ve seen advertised in a few different places. The Hammer and the Stake is an ongoing Kickstarter for a game of socialist freedom fighters trying to bring down vampire overlords, all set in 1920s Eastern Europe. It’s an evocative idea for a game and the creator, Chris Gunning of Weaponized Ink was kind enough to answer a few interview questions about the project.

Ocean Natures for Wanderhome

Today I’m here with my first published fan content for Wanderhome (not counting the small and forgotten gods generator which is more of an online tool). While I love the pastoral default for Wanderhome, I thought I’d explore another option with ocean-focused locations.

System Roundtable: Everdell RPG

In these trying times, game are a special refuge that revitalizes me. I think I’m not alone in that and while I currently have a tense City of Mist campaign going on and just wrapped an unnerving Invisible Sun season, sometimes it’s nice to have something cozy and pleasant to wrap up in like a warm blanket.

Ten Things to Know About Invisible Sun

I just wrapped up Season 1 of my Invisible Sun campaign last week, taking a break from campaign play to be more flexible this summer. Given this experience I wanted to take a minute and give the Ten Things to Know treatment to Invisible Sun as well.

Bedtime Heroes, Part 4: Sidekicks and Plots

It’s time for the next stage of Bedtime Heroes! Right now this is the last installment that I have planned but who knows what the future holds! Last time I wrapped up some guidelines for creating villains that your heroes can thwart and this time I’ve got sidekicks to help them out and plots for them to enact. Try them out and let me know what you think!

Cuticorium RPG Review

As if to prove that roleplaying games know no bounds, there’s a game where you play as a bug. To be clear, Cuticorium is not a game about playing as a humanoid bug or as someone transformed into a bug. You’re a literal bug and it’s pretty amazing.

See Mephit’s Work on City of Dangers!

I’m here today with some insider industry knowledge… That’s blogging industry, not the gaming industry or anything. While I’ve been writing Star Trek Adventures material on Continuing Mission for a while, I’ve also got plenty of ideas about City of Mist and I’m publishing them with the inestimable Tony Pi on our new City of Dangers blog.
