The Camahueto is a creature from the folklore Chiloé, a large, beautiful island on the cold and rainy south of Chile. Where folk tales lurk in every corner, and at night, you will hear the cries of witches disguised as animals. #dnd #folklore #chile #osr knittedbones.substack.com/p/about-the-...

Once more, we dive deep into the field notes of the alchemist Octaria Pulnassea. This time we follow the track of a sickness: black and purple corals that overtake the bodies of flying sea snakes. knittedbones.substack.com/p/black-and-... #ttrpg #dnd #osr #ose #morkborg #dolmenwood #indiettrpg

Once more, we dive into the field notes of Octaria Pulnassea, alchemist extraordinaire. This time, we will uncover the tales of a strange and huge purple sloth living on the outskirts of a village. The locals call it the Mylgadilac. knittedbones.substack.com/p/mylgadilac... #ttrpg #osr #ose #dnd

I wanted some insect-like beastmen, so I put some spider heads from Wargames Atlantic on some beastman bodies, and for the arms, I used bits from the Frostgrave Gnolls (plus some texture made with Milliput, Green Stuff, and dirt).

I made some terrain for our next game of Mordheim at the local gaming store. I used the packaging box of a subwoofer for the stone tiles. They already had their own texture, which made my job a lot easier (egg carton works just as well!). #warhammer #mordheim #wargaming #crafting

Last week, I was fortunate enough to play #Mordheim with the incredible people of Mordheim Chile at a local game store. It was a three-on-three game with lots of narrative moments ⚔️ I'm very happy to return to my country and discover that spaces and groups like this are flourishing! #warhammer

Today's article is two things: First and foremost, it's focused upon introducing your table to the wide world of options available to them when it comes to picking their second system. Second, it was a chance to amp up and cheerlead for some my favorite indie TTRPGs, and the creators that made them

You know that kind review you left for an indie game on itch? The creator read it and it meant the world to them. And they will go on to make more cool stuff because you took the time to say something positive. Being nice is cool. Keep it up.
