It's been a while since I've plugged mine and Thea's Vampire: The Masquerade book. This one's a collection of human NPCs (or SPCs) you can drop into any chronicle. #vtm #vamily #v5 #wod #vampire #dtrpg #storytellersvault www.drivethrurpg.com//product/555...

The 90s had a lot of perfect albums, but there are just a handful that I still come back to. It'd be tempting to put Radiohead's OK Computer on here, but Smashing Pumpkin's Siamese Dream speaks more directly to my soul. Not one bad track.

We just released our first Shadowdark RPG adventure called Dawn of the Goat. A fast-paced and deadly adventure, perfect for a fun oneshot with good friends. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... #ttrpg #rpg #tabletoprpg #indierpg #osr #shadowdark #dnd #grimdark #darkfantasy #nordic #folklore #dtrpg

Ran Mørketid yesterday with a few fellow game designers after a night of fine-tuning its the engine. Exploding dice for damage, and a Maim-tolerance for the enemies was a real hit for a disgustingly bloody viking OSR-game.

I was awarded with a trophy yesterday, a sort of life-time-achievement award from the TTRPG community. It's full of quotes of things I've blurted out on the podcast over the years. I was really close to crying in front of a lot of people 😅Matthijs Holter to the right of trophy.

Our website is finally up and running at www.seidmanngames.com But most importantly, this bad boy is crowdfunding soon. Get ready to lose some appendages!

One last spread from Menagerie of Mortals Expanded for V5 (at least for now). A PDF for Vampire: The Masquerade 5E I've made with @varrishan.bsky.social which includes 32 mortal NPCs and 25 roll-tables to generate NPCs for hunting scenes. Link in comments! #vtm #vamily #stv #ttrg #rpg #dnd #wod #diy

Ran Mørketid for three other game designers today. It got pretty bloody. I made dumb paper minis which I ended up not using 😄 I'm a theater of the mind GM, and I avoid using minis at almost all cost, so I'm not sure why I thought I would need them.

After playing Shadowdark, it became clear to me that this system is a perfect fit for my own game, Mørketid—a Viking Age TTRPG inspired by Norwegian black metal, horror, and Norse mythology. We're going all in on this now and hope to have it out sooner rather than later. #dnd #osr #ttrpg

I bet they have great cherry pie in Heaven. I'm glad you never gave us the answers to your beautifui riddles.

A little teaser for our upcoming game Mørketid ("Dark Times" in Norwegian), a Black Hack-fueled viking game that draws inspiration from black metal and Norse mythology but cranks it up to 11. We'll likely release this one in English too, as that just makes sense. #osr #viking #indie #ttrpg #dnd

Spillforlaget was founded in 2021 to release Norwegian TTRPG products in Norwegian and English. Our flagship project is Dragepust (Dragon's Blight). Other projects in development include the OSR RPG Mørketid, as well as the card deck Deck of Limbs. Additionally, we produce the podcast Vertshuset.

I'm hoping for a resurgence of what I consider one of the greatest artistic achievements in Norwegian TTRPG-design: Itras By. Outland (a chain in Norway) featured it in their Black Week sale. For those outside Norway, an English version is on DriveThru: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/1...
