After 34 years taking their collection from 1,000 to over 150,000 movies, Scarecrow Video’s beloved longtime buyer Mark Steiner is calling it a career after having helped shape Seattle’s (and the world’s) largest physical media store📽️ My story @seattletimes.com: www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...

Mark Steiner, longtime Scarecrow Video employee, is shown in the Seattle store Sept. 10, with shelves upon shelves of movies expanding out behind him that he helped to bring to the location over 34 years.

Times have changed. The old rules no longer apply. Our foes have grown in strength. We must adapt. Don't worry. I gotchu. With updated tactics and brand-new tips for every monster, REMONSTERED! THE MONSTERS KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING comes out this Oct. 6. Preorder at bookshop.org/a/511/9.... #DnD

The cover of REMONSTERED! THE MONSTERS KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING: Five adventurers—a dragonborn paladin, a forest gnome barbarian, an orc druid, a tiefling bard and a goliath sorcerer—are fighting a rakshasa in the richly appointed office of a royal adviser. On the rear wall is a portrait of a handsome, mustachioed human who wears the exact same robes of honor as the rakshasa. The rakshasa is savagely tearing into the paladin's throat with its claws. The look on the paladin's face is of someone unexpectedly confronting his own mortality. The shellshocked barbarian looks like she's about to drop her absurdly oversize axe; the bard and the sorcerer are clearly terrified, holding their weapons limply. The druid, on the other hand, looks resolute, angry and unafraid.

My favorite GM handout? Working on end-of-chapter gifts for my players, I found images of healing potion bottles full of four-sided dice online. I loved the idea — Photoshopped custom labels, stuck them on bottles, and filled them with d4. #ttrpghandout #GM #d&d #dungeonsanddraggons #gaming #ttrpg
