I may be the first person to complete Mina the Hollower's secret ending (Sinless%) without using any modifiers at all. It's not as hard as I expected, and took only 3 attempts (started with Sinless-0). Really fun run with some very unique challenges! #minathehollower #challengerun #sinless

A screenshot of Lionel, one of the major characters in Mina the Hollower, saying, "Does no one have a single complaint?" to a room full of guests at a dinner party. In a normal run, Lionel would accuse the player of committing various sins throughout the game, but in a Sinless% playthrough, he finds no fault with your actions.

Lionel and Mina stand satisfied on the island hideout of one of the game's main antagonists, having destroyed all of the plans and documents there. This is the epilogue scene of the game's secret ending.

My final save file. The name of the file is Sinless-2, counting attempts starting from 0. The final time was 10:29:11, with a very low completion percentage. Only two trinkets are equipped: A defense booster, and a trinket that boosts damage for each consecutive hit. The option to "Begin New Game+" is available, showing that this save file has been completed.

I use SoundCloud, and what I do is I make curated playlists for adventures where each song is for a different area, character, or encounter. I then put the songs on loop like a video game. One neat thing this allows is giving sets of things a motif by grabbing songs from the same source.

I like to ask for a roll and then tell them anyway. If they get high enough I might even give them extra info (nudging towards potential ideas), but the most important stuff is free

Yessss I love magic items with special functions My favorite part about them is that they're helpful for organizing a party of specialists, so that everyone has their own "Thing" that sets them apart One of my favorites is a "Wind up" hammer that you can charge up to make the next attack deadlier.

Kelal Trite, a Chrobak Barbarian with resistance to most damage and an aroma that makes enemies compelled to attack him

Tentalus, a Ragni bard whose spells cause psycic damage to those they affect, and Barrack, a Diego Fighter who can parry attacks and stop enemies from hitting his allies.

Tentalus Arachson, the Ragni Bard. His main gimmick is various trapping spells that deal psychic damage to foes trapped by them.

New character, Peli Canter the Leco Rouge. Her gimmick is being able to attempt to steal something valuable from nearby enemies (and friends)

This phase lasts 2 rounds, and if the players don’t find a way to break their fall in time they will surely die. In the final phase they’re battling in the volcanic basin and the boss has attacks from both phases. It also adds in environmental challenge from the new arena (5/5)

Jestro @jestrogamemaker.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

Normally this is about where the fight ends, but since in this scenario she’s the last one they’re fighting, she then destroys the entire arena, causing the party to start falling into the magma basin of the volcano as she flies after them. (4/?)

Jestro @jestrogamemaker.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

In the first phase, she’s fighting them like a berserker barbarian with a massive axe at the summit of Tar Mountain, and in the second phase she transforms into a more draconic form with extra strengths and actions. (3/?)

Jestro @jestrogamemaker.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

One of my favourite examples (coming up) is a set of bosses that which scale in difficulty as the players kill the other one, along with the build up sections. Of those, one of them is against the Matriarch of the sunlit dragons, and Champion of the resident god of Dragons and the Apocalypse (2/4)

Jestro @jestrogamemaker.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

This is the sort of stuff I love doing, every single one of my bosses in D&D has at least 2 phases, if not more. (1/4)

I’m making the drawings for more of the characters in the D&D party I’m creating from scratch

A drawing of a pitch black rat ranger with a greatbow, quiver, and pole. She’s facing away and giving a side eye glance back

A grinning muscular Dragonborn wielding a greatsword wreathed in flames in the Wrath Guard Stance

Finished up that LDD from yesterday. Feeling wiped and really looking forward to an early night. Journalling is going well- I've hit a whole two days in a row! Very impressive commitment.
