With the R&P! Quickstart released, we are looking for influencers, and journalists interested in talking about it With unique comic-book style character sheets, board-game-style rules mixed in with TTRPGs, and dope Entity paper tents, we believe there is a bunch of interesting stuff to talk about!

Since I'm posting art today, here are the illustrations I've done for Fantasy In My Backyard. Y'all are NOT prepared for the way this book looks. @boxen.bsky.social is absolutely killing the layout!
Half-page illustration of a cozy bookshop interior. Warm light filters in through the windows and settles on shelves, knicknacks, plants, and reading nooks. All of which frames the central action: a human customer with an armful of books, across the counter from an enthusiastic shopkeep… who is also a magical cat.

The cat waggles its paw at the slightly baffled customer, who is watching one of their selections float away to join the many other books flying through the air. There is glitter across the human's face that shimmers in juxtaposition with their grunge-punk style. The cat is large, fluffy, and white with starry swirls across its body; it wears a broad-brimmed wizard's hat.

Small but fun details include:

- Dictionaries and workbooks on heiroglyphs, moon runes, elder futhark, and cuneiform.
- Cookbooks for zombies from Better Haunts and Graveyards
- Multiple tomes about werewolf ettiquette, culture, and music scenes
- Overviews on Vamp Rock, Fae Rave, & Shroompunk
- and a poster with a stern wizard that says, "READ. The mind is a muscle you can train."A whimsical digital illustration of shopfronts inspired by buildings found in Mexico City, Mexico. It has a soft and colorful style with texture reminiscent of ink pens, colored pencils, and watercolor washes.

The illustration is a vignette, where the street fades away just beyond the curb, and the sky also fades into nothing. The telephone lines extend beyond the edges of the vignette. The two buildings on the left are narrow, as though trying to squeeze in to fit between the other buildings and the curb. The other two buildings are normal widths and sport assorted windows, awnings, balconies, and doors. The facade of the pink building also sports a duo of delightful swirls.

Some details of note include: a small food stall with blue and white awning, tended by an indeterminate dog-like creature in a green cap and apron; a sign on one building that reads "Tónicas y tinturas" and a cafe awning that reads "Compañeros del CuCu"; and a pair of striped, witchy boots hanging from telephone lines, like sneakers.

what ADVENTURES have the best boss fights in ttrpgs. I'm not talking about systems that recreate a boss fight like Hollows but standard systems that have a "boss level" encounters. Doesn't necessarily have to be combat, could be an encounter with multi-step puzzle/environmental/social design.

thanks to Gab Fernandez at @wargamer.com for their article on This game brilliantly uses that premise as the emotional foundation for storytelling...Though vastly different mechanics, it does remind me of the best horror tabletop RPGs such as Ten Candles. www.wargamer.com/prequel-ttrpg

The tragic TTRPG about heroes failing to save the world deserves your attention
Prequel by Glyphtide Games is a fantasy TTRPG set at the end of the Hero's Journey, but here's the twist: the party of heroes must lose.
