This week I visited Dragonsteel HQ with @suenshine.bsky.social, Lead Designer of the Cosmere RPG. We had a great time seeing everyone there and seeing how well Kickstarter fulfillment is going. While we were at it, we recorded some videos on how to play in the Mistborn campaign setting!

Do you run a TTRPG podcast or YouTube channel? Are you a TT journalist looking for interviews? Mistborn is releasing this Fall for the Cosmere RPG. I want to showcase our team full of talented designers, writers, artists, and more! If you'd like a chance to interview the team, please DM/email me!

I love how unexpected yet perfectly curated these worlds are. They are fresh and immersive but it's still easy to learn the ropes and dive right in! Perfect balance of new and familiar, just like the Plotweaver system itself! 💡

Hey all! If you’re a fan of @fondalee.bsky.social ‘s Green Bone Saga and TTRPGs, please check this out. Streets of Jade uses the Paragon system from @evilhat.bsky.social and takes it to a new level, incorporating factions vying for control of Jade and the awesome power it brings into the mix.

As a huge fan of the Green Bone Saga, I've experienced the setting, magic, and clan dynamics brought to life in SoJ playtests. This RPG is as vicious and cutting as it is sentimental and poignant. We've laughed, cried, sworn vengeance, and fiercely protected the interests of our families and clans.

Meric has contributed to the vast majority of Cosmere RPG products we’ve created, and we are always left wanting more of his sparky, energetic, and thoughtful work. He's a leader I respect, trust, and admire. Brotherwise could not have picked a better person to lead Plotweaver! THIS IS SO EXCITING!!
