The Kickstarter is up for my rules light dark fantasy game, The Wicked Forever King Hungers!

I made it a KS to help fund my work, but also so I could get Kickstarter practice for when it's time for Street Wolves to print!

Anyway, I'm really pleased with how this turned out and it's fun to read/look at even if you don't play it.

Fun fact: This game was inspired by the true story of a pope who drank the blood of children in order to try to cheat death.

Playing Justicar on @PartyOfOnePod- was such a fun, goofy time crafting a petty crime and some rivalries among HOA members.

Lily Tarkovich, the Judge with an obscene knowledge of lawn gnome lore, lives in my head rent free.

Give it a listen: https://buff.ly/3hdj5Az

Justicar is available now on our shop! https://buff.ly/3XTo5e5

Something a little different. I've made another ttrpg, Shit Heels! It's rules light romp where you play a shit heel who lives in an endless dungeon, trying to get treasure and keep your blood on the inside.

I made this because I was in a bit of a creative funk. So I made a system in 10 minutes and I think it's kinda fun! If people like it I might flesh it out more in the future. And I'll definitely be doing more stuff like this in the future.

So a large cat, a rat, a spider and a hummingbird stroll into town...

I ran The Witch is Dead a bit ago, and it was a delightful success. My players did it: they found the killer's corpse, retrieved the eyes, and revived their witch. Which I'd initially meant to leave as a cliffhanger, but they successfully evaded chase by an enormous spectral owl that bled floating ichor, so they deserved something.

My first post about this, I noted that I was planning a little more than the game rules called for. I drew two maps, as you can see: the witchwood and the nameless town where this adorable crew of woodland animals went on a rampage.

They were mobbed by chickens. Baffled by a goat that walked on its hind legs. Helped by a pair of not-very-bright pigeons. Menaced by a little girl who wanted to have a tea party.

Rules changes

Instead of going with the pre-established stats, I gave everyone six points to drop into whatever they wanted; they just had to make an argument for how it was justified. This was driven in part because I was morally outraged by the idea that an owl would have a higher understanding of humans than a domesticated animal like a dog or cat.

2. I had some opposing rolls, all GM discretion, for some challenges.

3. I introduced the ability for everyone to communicate, mostly because I didn't have the bandwidth to pantomime. The ability was caused by the witch's magic, which was environmental and would have faded over time with her death.

Story

I went with "there is a rival witch" but added a twist: the old witch-hunter in town had a detente with our witch, but he had been killed and possessed by the interloper, who specializes in summonings. So the tracks back into town belonged to his corpse. A new witch-hunter had arrived in town and was just setting up, confusing the trail. A very concerned priest was skulking around trying to figure out why the deceased witch-hunter had fresh blood on him.

The rival witch is, primarily, a necromancer and negotiator with spirits, while OUR beautiful, dead witch (with her nails that could pierce a dragon's heart! Her legs like treetrunks! Her hair like a cloud of brambles!) was concerned mostly with the living heart of the forest. So although our intrepid band of tiny, scurrying creatures evaded a direct confrontation with her, she sicced a spirit owl on them.

It worked really well. Players were engaged, delighted, and challenged, and it was easy enough to bluff when I needed to. I don't have much experience running sessions and it was a good system for the bandwidth I have had lately.
