T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Just want to put it out there to @darringtonpress.bsky.social that I no longer work for Wizards of the Coast and am very much in the market to bring my tabletop creativity to new ventures. The fact that I didn't work for WOTC before is a minor detail I'm sure we can look past. #ttrpg #dnd #oneshot 020
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 11/06/2025It turns out I might have been getting my shoe size wrong by three whole sizes most of my life. How's your week going? 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 25/05/2025Returning home from #londonmcm #comiccon. Ridiculously exhausted, won’t be back until well after dark. Give me two days in the rejuvenation pod then it’s back to the typewriter… 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Day 2 of #londonmcm and we’re still reeling from how busy Friday was. Head to Artist’s Alley G2 and loudly intone the passphrase “The Pensive Man Forever Holds His Peace” For no reason other than it would be funny. Bonus points if I hear you at the wrong stall. 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 23/05/2025London MCM starts today! If you want to meet up to discuss: - Tabletop - Writing - Voicework - My secret upcoming project - A chance to win £50 of candles - The Norwegian archipelago of Svarlbard Then head to G2 in Artist’s Alley where I’ll be aiding the wonderful @lientietattoos.bsky.social #mcm 000

T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Third day in a row my pain levels have gone up, and not down like I expressly told them to. It hurts, but worse still is how annoying distractive it is. I'm just trying to craft fantasy worlds and my spine is like "That's enough faeries and magic for you boyo!" 020
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 03/12/2024The system I'm writing for the Minimalist #TTRPG Jam is roughly: - 8% Rules - 12% Jokes - 80% Ridiculous Premise I can't wait to not play it.

T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 02/12/2024I dreamt I wrote a one-page #ttrpg system called 'Here and Now' where the premise is the moment the game starts, a second timeline is sprung where something interrupts the game and the would-be players have to survive whatever has transpired. In this timeline you roleplay the other, in real time. 200
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Finally watched the first season of 'Pantheon' and... Wow, what a rush. It ticked a lot of boxes for me. Above all else I can't stop marvelling at how grounded it was. Believable reactions, emotions, and conundrums while still delving deep into some great sci-fi elements. Would highly recommend. 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 01/12/2024The larger table setup in our dedicated #d&d tavern room means there's no longer anywhere we can put the Christmas tree. Genuinely considering putting it in the bathroom this year. 020
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 01/12/2024People are missing the obvious. Elon Musk's main gripe is he's not allowed to play. He's a nerd and he can't play a #ttrpg because he's the main boss of r/rpghorrorstories. A raging narcissist that can't be told "no". He's incompatible. If he can't enjoy the game, nobody else is allowed to either. 140
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 30/11/2024What #videogame has the most realistic loot? I find myself craving a game, probably survival genre in the 'real world' where loot is realistically placed and proportioned. No more finding shotguns on crocodiles, or not finding an object on a character you can clearly see has one. 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I've been working on a #d&d 5e class for a little over a year, with a hope to publish next year. It *still* doesn't have an official name. I flit between two possibilities on an almost weekly basis, annoyingly aware that the correct option is likely a third I've yet to think of. 010

T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 28/11/2024I've been out of action for a few days, courtesy of my chronic illness. I find it's like falling off a merry-go-round. I've picked myself up out of the dirt, checked myself over and dusted myself off, and now I'm just trying to pluck up the energy to leap back on. Someone save a unicorn for me. 020

T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 18/11/2024Heading to the library with my partner today to research children’s books for a new passion-project! We’ve long discussed joining forces on an endeavour such as this and it’s finally happening. We’ll see who breaks first! #writing #library #relationshipgoals 010
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Ok #worldbuilding craftspeople, care to share one interesting tidbit about your world that lacks all important context? I’ll start: The moon only turns because an unfathomably large dragon keeps it moving, hence some of the craters look like claw marks. #d&d #ttrpg 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 16/11/2024Another session ended on a cliffhanger. Giving players a week to ponder impending certain death or plot-shattering revelation is one of the few joys a DM gets to revel in between sessions before the inevitable preparation for the next begins. It’s also the reason I’m not a teacher. #dnd #ttrpg 020
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 14/11/2024For no reason whatsoever, here is my favourite cover from Dragon Magazine (#143): I've cracked wise about this for years (and will continue to do so for my own enjoyment), but really I can't wait to run a one-shot using this as inspiration. Top Gun vs. Dragons anyone? 232
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 13/11/2024Tonights D&D session proved that a 1 in 6 chance for a random encounter happens 8 in 9 times. Time for a long rest I reckon. 010

T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 10/11/2024A few years ago I started re-working a bunch of 5e adventures into an epic saga. Yesterday we were discussing the two year anniversary of the group that embarked on that quest. Sometimes crazy ideas do work out. #dnd #ttrpg 020
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 10/11/2024Ideas come at the worst times. Travelled out to meet family for a big Sunday lunch, and I’d left my notebook on my desk. No I’m back home too full of Yorkshire Pudding to think straight enough to recall what it was. 000
T. A. Inkwright @inkwright.bsky.social · 10/11/2024Great advice for anyone making this their job. I can’t imagine going back to running so many weekly campaigns anymore. I presumed it would be mentally tiring, but never expected it to be physically draining too. 010
