I made it! My Appendix N jam entry is live. Super fun to make, finishing feels like victory. yttikon.itch.io/caves-of-hit... A magic mishap caused two distant caves to partially merge. Physics are rapidly falling apart in this free dungeon for Cairn. #Cairn #osr #AppxNJam

My Appendix N Jam project is shaping up, but I've got a lot of stuff and little space. I've already decreased font size and margins. Guess I should try that "concise writing" thing next, so I can find room for that random table of Ogre love letters. For now, here's a teleportoad. #appxnjam

theweepingstag.wordpress.com/2026/06/29/n... This week on New Monsters for Cairn meet the Seagull Elemental, a land whale that kills its prey by reversing its own gravity, and ambassadorial parrot drag queens. #OSR #ttrpg

New Monsters for Cairn (and other Odd-likes): #3 – Death from Above

Last year I only heard about this when people uploaded their cool stuff, and it was too late to join. Not making that mistake again.

I've added a file with printable maps to my latest Carin adventure. Check it out here: yttikon.itch.io/lady-grey-of...

Maps available

I've added a file with the maps to print. The Trissam map has a version with and without The Forest Cave, if you want to hide it until the party discovers it...

The small town Trissam is cursed with an all-consuming grey sand, infected with greed and on the brink of a civil war. My first #Cairn adventure & first over 1 page, so I'm exited about it. If you check it out, I'd love to hear what you think. yttikon.itch.io/lady-grey-of... #osr #ttrpg

This weekend I was at Nordic Game Jam for the first time in ten years. Super fun. We made a game about dying and losing one's memories. Kinda dark. I think we came up with an interesting concept. Memnomories on itch: nordicnarrative.itch.io/memnomories

Memnomories by Nordic Narrative

Which memories will you keep?

Just played a ttrpg (Cairn) with my parents for the first time. They made it safely through the Demonitorium. Fun to share my hobby, and a dungeon I created on vacation with them. I didn't have random tables when I made it, so I used my mum. Now she got to see what her water lily suggestion led to.

2025 ttrpg status: Played Burning Wheel, Trail of Cthulhu, Vaesen and BitD Deep cuts. Vaesen is by far my favorite of those. GM'ed Swords of the Serpentine, Cairn 2e, and Carbon Grey. I also put 3 one page adventures on itch, beating my previous record of 0. All in all a good year ttrpg wise.

5 TTRPGs I want to try in 2025: 🔥 Burning wheel (already made a character) 🪦 Delta Green 🔍 Trail of Cthulhu 🤵 Night's black agents ⚔️ Cairn I've never played gumshoe before, maybe this is the year.

Tonight I played Warhammer 40k for the first time in many years. We didn't get far with the battle, but it was super fun, and we were able to leave the table, so The Greater Good may prevail next week.

I just put out another #onepagedungeon for free. System neutral with several plothooks. The dwarves swam too deep. They raised a Demonitorium below Yivar lake, and experimented with demons until their creation escaped. yttikon.itch.io/the-demonito... #osr #fantasy #rpg #ttrpg

The Demonitorium of Yivar Lake by Yttikon

A onepage ttrpg adventure exploring an underwater demonic laboratory

You're panicked, you're blind in the darkness, you've left your party, and you're not wearing armor. "It's fine, I continue north" And thus Yarrow heroically sacrificed himself, so that the burrowing horror should not go hungry to bed tonight. #cairn is fun.

Can anyone recommend some reading about creating interesting combat encounters in #osr #ttrpg games? (Specifically #cairn)? Like combining resilient enemies with glass cannons, interesting environment, or objectives other than just killing. What else is out there, and where do I read about it?

Just released my second fantasy #onepagedungeon for free. A short, system-neutral dungeon crawl for those wanting to experience both the true origin, and the true terror of The Tooth Fairy. It is easy use in an existing fantasy campaign. yttikon.itch.io/the-tower-of... #osr #fantasy #rpg #ttrpg

The Tower of the Tooth Fairy by Yttikon

A onepage ttrpg adventure about stopping the terror of The Tooth Fairy

yttikon.itch.io

I still need to fix some text for my next one page dungeon, but I did finish a drawing of The Tooth Fairy that I'm pretty happy about. #ttrpg #osr #art

Andor was just amazing. What to watch next? Probably Andor...

I GMed Swords of the Serpentine tonight. The players book from the bottom of the ocean finally dried, and the waves came to swallow Eversink. PCs completed a ritual in time, saving the city. Good. Was afraid Eversink wouldn't survive our third adventure. What a fun system. #TTRPG #GUMSHOE

I began publishing my #ttrpg adventures, hoping they'll see another group of adventurers. My first is a free #onepagedungeon. A trading post with mysterious inhabitants, a magical amulet, and a suspicious amount of no-swimming signs. yttikon.itch.io/the-trading-... #osr #rpg #fantasy

The Trading Post by Yttikon

A onepage ttrpg fantsy adventure with crocfolks and greed.

I spend my weekend reading the Swords of the Serpentine #ttrpg so we can start our next campaign as soon as possible. Just finished, I'm excited to get started. After a year with Forbidden Lands I just need a game where "Ridiculous Luck" is an ability. #SwordsOfTheSerpentine #gumshoe

We just ended our over a year long Forbidden Lands campaign. By far the longest I've GM'ed. Super fun, with moments like - A failed stealth roll causing the players to "accidentally" capture a town. - A player fighting his immortal father with the others rushing to unimmortalize the father. #ttrpg

Just learned about the Hard City and Tomorrow City RPGs. Looks l need to add a few games to my 2025 list. Busy year... #ttrpg
