Writer, illustrator, cartographer, and designer of TTRPGs. Always looking to work and play with more creatives in the space!
I went from never having done a kickstarter to having two successful ones under my built. And we have a third getting prepped. Let’s fuggin’ go
@jeffstevensgames.bsky.social is running a #ShadowDark Kickstarter. Hellbinder's Guide to Harvesting & Crafting provides players with rare items they can collect from the creatures they encounter. They can use these items to gain special traits or create new items. Check it out. Link in comments.
Tonight I finished my first big cartography job for @ghostfiregaming.bsky.social I have been so happy to get to work for you guys and look forward to doing more in the future!

I have been waiting for this! And I‘m really impressed with how well it‘s put together. My one complaint is @thiseffingm.bsky.social isn‘t here for me to properly thank.
If your workplace were a TTRPG encounter, what would be the Final Boss? 😈 The impossible un-deadline? The meeting that could’ve been a spell scroll? The mysterious “quick call” from your warlock patron... er... manager? Drop your workplace Final Boss below! ⚔️ #FinalBossFriday #TTRPG #WorkHumor

I'm about to wrap up 4 TTRPG projects in the next 2 weeks. Will I learn to not take on more so I can have time to myself? Probably not.
I started a Cpap machine a week ago. I'm now sleeping like I used to and waking up feeling ready to go. The problem is, I'm waking up at 4:30 now.
WORLDBUILDING WEDNESDAY Everyone loves monsters but not everyone knows their lore. What's a cool monster you've made and something unique to it? For me, the Flutterdye Butterfly, a deadly insect that's nearly extinct. Its wings are used to create dyes that give a rich hue to expensive clothing.
We have cool friends, who do cool things. Please help support by checking them out. This Thursday! Join us for a special one shot on Tabletop Misfits featuring Black Masts & Magic for #shadowdarkRPG. Link in comments

A magic system based on obsession and strength of will. That is what I'm thinking about today.
We had a wonderful time in Toronto this weekend. Big ideas were created and big plans to come! #BigIdeaGaming #WorldofOranth #TTRPG
Toronto was so fun this weekend. I came back home in such a creative fervor. But now that I've started my work day, I am SOOOOO tired.

Creating a world takes more than maps and monsters. We spend countless hours developing cultures, histories, conflicts, and legends to make Oranth feel alive at every gaming table. What's your favorite part of world building? #WorldbuildingWednesday #BigIdeaGaming #WorldofOranth
Every Kingdom has secrets. Every ruin tells a story. Every hero has a destiny. In Oranth, the greatest secrets hide within the very building blocks of how the world was created. What would your party be willing to give up to learn such a powerfully hidden secret? #WorldOfOranth #dnd #BigIdeaGaming
