Who doesn't love a "what did the town mage do THIS TIME!?" adventure? Here's a fun printable #TTRPG poster to prompt some arcane shenanigans, and if you're needing a little bit more inspo on running this the writeup has a breakdown on how I might run it for my #fantasy game. bit.ly/mage-tower-a...
A promo for a yellowed medieval style notice board posting giving notice that there is a perimeter around a local mage's tower due to a strange magical anomaly flying around it. Included are suggested ways to use the poster in a TTRPG.

I hate reading a popular blog, that attempts to refute a different popular blog, all the rebuttals are super shallow, almost entirely unsourced, and just ignoring plenty of context, and then it ends with it isn't that deep. You are not that deep, and honestly I hate that the original author...

I did say I'd drop it this week, so here is my fantasy agnostic TTRPG microsetting, Ansticewood! It's 16 pages on 8 spreads, all human-made. I'm still sorta figuring out Affinity, but I like the way it came out. Inspired by old fairytales & folktales, it features an Evil Queen & persecuted faefolk.

TTRPG Safety Cards are awesome tools to have at the table, and I wanted to make something that stood out more than cardstock did so they didn't get lost among the papers. They could even be a fidget with its tactile borders... so I made 3D printable ones with a stand! makerworld.com/en/models/31...
3 cards with decorative white borders and symbols. A red card shows a giant x, a brown card has a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle, and a green card has an o.A red, brown, and green card are propped up on their side with a white stand. The front red card has a big white x on it.

Across the top it says "Serenity Springs: Realm of Noxious Nostalgia" There is a man and woman sitting at a dining table talking to each other.
