NEW FOR SOLO SEPT: 86 by @carrion-comfort.com 🍽️ A fine dining-themed solo RPG w a fiery mechanic. Rise through the ranks then open (and run) a restaurant of your own. Reflect on prompts and burn them IRL. What will you incinerate to come out on top? Your relationships? Your principles? Your health?

The cover of 86, A Solo Game About Losing Your Passion, A Carrion Comfort game. The cover looks like a red-checked tablecloth with a white square napkin on it. The title is printed on the napkin

An interior example from 86. The lefthand page is titled 86 the Chef and gives instructions for using a Joker. The righthand page goes into detail about what The Joker means and gives the player a handful of prompts to answer if they choose to use it. The pages themselves are printed like a recipe book in a three-ring binder, laid open on a red and white checked tablecloth

Wrapped up a Daggerheart one-shot! Got to play Herriette, a Halfing Hedge Witch! She got wrecked, but the group made it through and can enjoy the celebrations she dressed up for! Thanks, @loremistress93.bsky.social for GMing! (Quick doodle done by me)

A woman halfing posing while holding a staff. Her brown and silver hair is in two thick braids that stick out on the sides of her head from under a green and gold witch hat. Her dress is in teal, green, purple and gold trimmed, with fluffy moss trimming her bodice, wearing tights with purple floral pattern on one leg and teal-green teardrop pattern on the other. A dark purple caplet with gold silk underneath is kept on by a small pony skull on her shoulder.
