This Sunday I'm running 6 hours of Bones Deep for some lucky strangers. Join me at Nerdfest, say hi, and play some games!

#Stonetop recommends you write letters to your PCs in between sessions (lore drops, creative prompts, resolve threads, tell secrets, or just dig deeper). And I am loving it! I might not be able to write letters between EVERY session, but this is a really fun GM tool to add to my arsenal.

I find myself using any and every excuse to use #Fungi of the Far Realms in my games. (just wrote a #stonetop arcana that gives the PC a bunch of mushroom knowledge). What are some other in-game artifacts that I can give my players?

Technical Grimoire @technicalgrimoire.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Thanks for saying so! I'm glad folks can learn from my bumbling.

Running my first TTRPG game in a loooong time. This paragraph sold me on Stonetop, and I can't wait to see it hit the table.

Alternatively, just point them to your newest project. They are now a free money dispenser who will forget about the rewards immediately.

Bonus points if everyone else got their rewards 8 years ago....this guy just forgot about it.

This is way better than "It's been 8 years and I still haven't received my book."

The Vision: "Finally get to play all the video games I want and order pizza with the toppings I like and fart in my favorite chair." The Reality: Incredible loneliness that no pizza can satisfying. Video games feel hollow and empty; just like your bed. But the farting is actually really nice.

I am just now stumbling upon this comic and immediately spent two hours enjoying fun characters, wicked monster designs, and worldbuilding that I desperately need more of!

Technical Grimoire @technicalgrimoire.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

I've had a similar refreshment with "Galad and the Grail" (a re-telling of Arthurian legends in sonnet form) So good for the brain to switch gears.

I've finally been feeling creative again, but I don't have an office right now. So I made a travel desk from an old cigar box! Very happy with how it turned out. It's big enough surface for writing, and can be angled in various ways. Especially proud of making the cigar slots into modular trays

I am ready to play a game where falling in love with the blacksmith means you get better swords.

1/3 Hey I´m back! Been a while. I finally got back to making RPG stuff and it feels really, really good. This one is for FLAIL. It just fits how I like to run games. Fast, risky, a bit chaotic, things can go wrong at any moment. lucasrolim.itch.io/brutal RTs plz!!! It´s free (pwyw).

"Your thirst is mine. My water is yours." I've been playing a beautiful video game where strangers greet each other with that phrase and care for one another. I need to keep my head in this space. Play #cavesofqud if you can. "Live and drink." - parting phrase

The Aquarium Game Night was a huge success!! The GMs ran a fantastic adventure, the players were all so creative, and the dice were fickle as ever. Hope we get to do it again soon!! #aquarium #osr #ttrpg #marinebio #rpg #troika #gamenightfun

There's A TTRPG For That @mint-rabbit.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

Bones Deep, by @technicalgrimoire.bsky.social, is not only smartly laid out and SUPER accessible, it's also funny, goofy, and full of awesome illustrations of various sea creatures. I've played it multiple times and I would be oh-so-happy to play it again.
