I've always wanted to do this! Every week I write up my notes for the upcoming session. You can read about my plans, ideas, and brainstorming. After the session is over I type up a summary of what happened. You can follow what went well, and what I learned. technicalgrimoire.com/david/2026/0...

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?

I'm running a weekly #ttrpg campaign of #Stonetop and writing up our adventures on my blog! Follow along if you're curious: www.technicalgrimoire.com/david/2026/0...

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.

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!

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).

I'm still proud of this review from a few years back. I got to interview a bunch of cool designers, therapists, psychologists, and counselors about a TTRPG designed for classrooms: www.technicalgrimoire.com/david/2022/0... #ttrpg #classroom #criticalcore #counselors #therapy #psychology #review

Critical Core Review Pt 2

In Part 1 I shared some of my thoughts and opinions on Critical Core from a designer’s perspective. However, Critical Core wasn’t really made for big RPG nerds like me. It is laser-focused on helping ...

I am so excited for this game! It does so many clever things while incorporating all the best cliches (which is a good thing!)

"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
