This year saw the conclusion to @winterstalesco.bsky.social's Castleton. Featuring a cast of over 100, this gargantuan undertaking was a joy to be part of, from meeting a host of unforgettable players, to indulging in delectable villainy alongside @jessjewell.bsky.social and @seum.bsky.social.

Sometimes life throws some curves balls and obstacles your way… Sometimes you accidentally get your account suspended on Twitch for 24 Hours in the middle of your 72 Hour Kickstarter Countdown Stream… Oops! But will that stop our marketing efforts? Not one bit! We just need to pivot 😅

There’s a lot of interesting characters in @winterstalesco.bsky.social’s Castleton, but @arcaneanthems.com’s Orpheum holds a place in my brain eternally as they begged a fellow demigod to not choose violence, before ripping their own face open to try and stop them.
