- Reposted by 𝖂.𝕯.Ultimately we've got to reckon with the fact that much of the OSR movement is merely reacting to indie TTRPGs' tendency to lose sight of why many folks take up the hobby: for a safe and budget-friendly way to satisfy the natural human impulse to put one's friends in some kind of fucked up labyrinth.
- 🤔 What about PC backpacks as secondary objectives for monsters? Taking them off gives +1 to all d20 rolls, but will the walking brains of the Crystal Library walk off with them? icastlight.blogspot.com/2026/01/your...
- Game 45 of my own running of Nightwick Abbey, the MU was stabbed to death by cultists after sleeping 10, reincarnated to a thief by a necromancer, which caused the cleric to renounce the Church Law after thy wouldn’t help & commune for salvation in the woods (hermit background) Megadungeons y’all…
- Reposted by 𝖂.𝕯.Psst. Hey you. There's free stuff in my ko-fi library for you to use in your projects - even commercial ones. Don't tell anyone I told you 🤫 ko-fi.com/alderdoodle/...

- Great video on DIY miniature making: www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8js...
- On the theme of how little you need to start a campaign, here I outline six 1-mile hexes around your megadungeon which I frame as a micro-nation/super-fund site: icastlight.blogspot.com/2026/01/six-...
- Distant Lands is back with some thoughts on ‘zine construction similar to $7 popsicle stick/cardboard terrain, I agree B&W letter-sized format for ‘zines democratizes participation in the hobby & promotes spread; See also Obilette by @caseyg.bsky.social : todistantlands.github.io/2026/01/15/h...
- An amazing issue! Oldhammer, Prachett, Castle Rat, black light cover art, and an interview with the creator of Warhammer! Pick it up!
- Emil Melmoth (Pssst @inplacesdeep.bsky.social )
- Dungeon Town Fence: A "dangerous" dungeon item can be sold with a maximum placed on either speed, value, or descression. Pick 1. ⚡Speed = money next session, 💰Value = 2x money, 🤫Discretion = no one hears about it. A fence might give a thief a discount on their cut out of professional courtesy
- Like a lower-case Voynich Manuscript: fantastic pictures just add interpretation!
- My new "adventure" Dungeon of Sparks is out now! It's fully illustrated but needs you, the reader to become the author. I'm calling it a "disjointed collaboration". When you finish writing it, you can use the art in it to publish an adventure. Enjoy! better-legends.itch.io/dungeon-of-s...
- 💀 𝕿𝖍𝖊𝖒 𝕭𝖔𝖓𝖊𝖘!💀 I needed a skeleton class for an up-coming game, so I fleshed one out. Went from 1st level Skeleton to 8th level "Death Knight" also provided OD&D Stronghold elements; And some fun optional 4th level titles: icastlight.blogspot.com/2026/01/skel...
- A nice post on DMing. And from playing many, many sessions of Nightwick, I can say Miranda pulls it off quite well!
