🧟🎃 Gore By Night 🎃🧟 @lorebynightvtm.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

AAAAA, IT'S HERE, JOURNEYMON IS HERE!!! @ilgingell.bsky.social has designed a Pokemon/Digimon inspired PbtA TTRPG where you explore a world & design your own Mons with attacks and Types and the artwork is cute and the quality is so good and it smells like new book and AAAA I can't wait to play 😭😭

This is a close-up photograph of me holding a hardcover tabletop roleplaying game book titled Journeymon: Monster Trainer Roleplaying by Imogen Gingell.
The book is held upright in one hand, with the thumb visible along the right edge, filling most of the frame. The glossy cover features a colourful, cartoon-inspired illustration that evokes the feel of classic monster-collecting adventures.

At the top, the title dominates the cover:
Smaller text reads "Monster Trainer Roleplaying" above the large green gradient word "JOURNEYMON."
Beneath the title is a row of circular elemental-style icons connected by a green line, each representing different monster types or affinities.
The artwork depicts two young adventurers running along a mountain trail at sunset.

Foreground: A smiling trainer with dark hair streaked with bright red looks back over their shoulder while jogging forward. They wear hiking clothes, gloves, trainers, and a backpack. Perched playfully on their shoulder is a dark, owl-like creature with oversized ears or feather tufts and glowing yellow-orange eyes.

Middle ground: A second trainer follows behind carrying a blue backpack, glancing nervously over their shoulder. A small, round, plant-like companion with leafy sprouts waddles along the path nearby.

Sky: A large bird-like creature glides overhead against a pastel sky streaked with warm pinks, oranges, and purples.
Background: Snow-capped mountains rise above forests of stylised evergreen trees, reinforcing the sense of a grand wilderness expedition.

The author's name, Imogen Gingell, appears in white lettering near the bottom of the cover.

Overall, the image presents a vibrant, optimistic fantasy adventure, with artwork that emphasizes exploration, companionship, and the excitement of setting out on a journey alongside friendly monsters.

The EHRC’S new code has been published. We’ll have a detailed analysis out shortly. The guidance has been toned down from the previous draft – but it still treats trans people like they’re a third sex. This pushes trans people out of public life and violates their human rights.

Flicking through the PDF of @ilgingell.bsky.social JourneyMon TTRPG and it looks so cool and adorable. So nice to have this Pokemon-inspired TTRPG in my (digital) hands. At a glance, I'm loving the joys of exploration and the power of friendship that a lot of fan projects akin to this seem to miss.

A woman in a skullduggerously glamourous outfit lounges sideways on a throne. The throne is old and beautifully carved, but covered in spiderwebs and decorated with skulls and bones. The woman grins at the viewer, hand lit in bright green magic that brightens the dark room. Her green crystal familiar floats above the throne, pointed arms glinting with the same magic as his mistress. Her speech bubble reads "Well well well! Looks like it's MINA'S turn now."

a closeup of the familiar and the skulls decorating the top of the throne. His face glows with an interior light, with a grin similar to Mina's

A close-up of Mina on the throne. Her gold jewelry glints in the light of her magic, and you can see the sharp tips of her winged eyeliner
