Ink Ribbon: Dead on Arrival continues this Saturday! Having crashed into a zombie outbreak, our survivors seek refuge in the Sparrow's Rest Police Department. Flashlights in hand, they creep past the infected officers on their way to the roof, where they find another survivor...

@rustyquill.com I'd like to make a statement. I have been sleepwalking for 10 years then someone put headphones on me and played the first season of the Magnus Archives. Now the sleepwalking isn't problem since I don't sleep... I'm riddled with questions, holes and sweet music. Is that normal?

It's real. It's online, and it's European timezone friendly. Get ready for a day of talks and panels, and a day of community games, all built from the ground up to be accessible, diverse, and to build community across borders! All supported by @moonshineadventure.bsky.social
EUphoria's signature navy blue background with yellow d4 stars and sparkles. EUphoria's logo in the top left, a round yellow frame with navy blue background, and a large shooting star made up of yellow d4s streaking from right to left, a yellow tail trailing behind. 
A large logo in the centre of frame - similar to the EUphoria logo, but with a lighter blue on the streaks of the comet's tail, a light blue broken circle orbiting the star, and two yellow d8s floating on that orbit.
Text below,  in a yellow-outlined white blocky font reads 'Coming May 2026'
Bottom text reads 'supported by' next to a Moonshine Adventure Company logo, a sandy yellow moon draped in a purple banner bearing the words 'The Moonshine Adventure Co.' and surrounded by small stars.

Post blood rave findings: - More blood was needed both in bags and from the ceiling. - When not interrupted by slayers, vampires throw some serious shapes on the dancefloor.

I am dedicated to researching games I intend on playing. I've been considering Vampire the Masquerade so, of course I'm going to a Valentine's blood rave. It's the only logical way of conducting research.

I'm less than 30 pages into this comic and my face is now permanently pinched in horror and revulsion. In the best possible way, this comic is viscerally unhinged. @sebcosset.bsky.social your art is amazing but unhinged 😳

Listen... Is this arc sad? Yes. Do moments from this arc occur to me at random moments in my real life? Yes. Did @tallnerdapollo.bsky.social, @dylananddragons.bsky.social and I make a pact to have an intervention for Declan as a result of what happened in this arc? Yes. So you should listen it.

Day 7 of getting to know Dread! I did a series about archery! In another life, I taught outdoor skills watersports, survival etc. My favourite activity was archery, so in a bid to improve I started making videos about my progress. I stopped when I moved to a city 🙃 www.instagram.com/reel/C7Q5xB7...

Day 5 of getting to know Dread! I recently met with the person who was the problem player in my 1st campaign. They apologised to me. We laughed about it. But without them I would never have made up my top 2 rules for DMing. 1. Nat 20s aren't reality bending. 2. Never let players whistle at dragons.
