Mostly TTRPGs and shizz. He/Him. Blog at , run and play games at Unconventional GMs. Check out pacy all-action Actual Plays: "A great example of the sort of positivity we need"
Do you like tarot, improv #TTRPGs, one-shots and heists? Maybe you like @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social 's ROYAL BLOOD, too, then burnafterrunningrpg.com/2026/08/09/c...
Play-informed (and only play-informed, I haven't read it) review, anyone? @ospreygames.bsky.social has some really interesting TTRPGs in its line up
Cracking book this, a selection of essays and letters about 1910s Berlin from a Swiss writer at the time. Sourced through my random book reading protocol.
I was Razors, ex-gang goon, in CY_BORG at @the-kraken.bsky.social - we liberated the Arasaka implants and promptly did the right thing and betrayed the corp to keep them for ourselves.
Lurkfish, thievery, and Chuckles the Venator - it's Barbarians of Lemuria at @the-kraken.bsky.social ! With GM @evilgaz.bsky.social
At @the-kraken.bsky.social I was Calico the Zealot, who searched for the golden grand finale - taking some dooding doing in, and some would say becoming a zero (but who counts numbers now?) in a game of #Dialect
At @the-kraken.bsky.social I was Malvolio, the Heir of Cups, who stole the puzzle box of the Hierophant from Judgement, in @gshowitt.bsky.social 's Royal Blood
The moment where brave Sir Casper ( @camibrew.bsky.social ) ran away…. luckily there was more heroics to come in our one-shot #Pendragon #TTRPG #ActualPlay youtu.be/FleKP6_eG2Y
Yeah my prep for @mythworks.bsky.social Crescent (2e) is going really well
I blame @thegrognardfiles.bsky.social and @breakfastruins.bsky.social - it turns out teenage me is wrong, and Moorcock is rollicking good fun. Still want more Vadhagh symphony content though...
"Take the Spotlight nevers happens" they said. Ah well.
Having a spectacular time playing #Spectaculars at #Longcon - a good test of a supers system is "can you play the Silver Surfer?"
In a #TTRPG prep experiment, all my prep for my Night Drifters one-shot at #NorthStarRPG is on handwritten index cards. Will report back on this prepsperiment!
Currently sat in the sun with a beer reading (and musing on running) Shinobigami - Modern Ninja Battle RPG. Anybody taken this for a spin before?
44 #TTRPG game sessions played so far in 2026 - and the most frequent ones are @chaosium.bsky.social 13th Age Glorantha and @gauntletrpg.bsky.social By Endurance We Conquer!
Absolutely no surprise to anybody...
Great fun this afternoon running @omnihedron.co.uk through a one-shot of The Paragon Blade, @pelgranepress.bsky.social @mytholder.bsky.social 's Gumshoe One-2-One game of mythic fantasy. Conn the Unslain is still Unslain!
Just casually chilling and reading @chaosium.bsky.social 's #Pendragon Random Wife Table
Bit of #13thAge #Glorantha idle preppage. This is such an underrated sourcebook for actionable stuff!
Scored for a bargain second hand - on a cursory inspection, it looks like this game slaps
Fantastic score from Quinto books today - I've never seen 2nd hand Armed Services Editions before, they are great little relics.
It's the second @lumpley.bsky.social @megueyb.bsky.social game of #revelationttrpg for me, as we're well into plotting now that The King Is Dead. House Antyre all the way - wish me luck!
#revelationttrpg Game 1 - under hollow hills from @lumpley.bsky.social and @megueyb.bsky.social - bring on the fairy circus!
Went to Whitby but @sdorward.bsky.social got here first
This from @paulczege.bsky.social is absolutely stunning (I'm-trying-not-to-read-it-in-one-sitting stunning), and an approach to writing about games I've not seen before. And I want to play a journalling game now!
#furnacerpg game 4 - @mythworks.bsky.social Good Society! Sally Hemingway has at least 3 men wanting to marry her, and she has no intention of marrying any of them!
#furnacerpg Slot 2 - Run Out The Guns. I have a book of critical hit tables, and an awful lot of skills to do sums with. Hornpiping the poop deck with @paulbaldowski.bsky.social at the helm (?)
Day one of #OBaWS in the bag - played Runequest with @dracowie.bsky.social at the helm, and ran @evilhat.bsky.social Deathmatch Island is its backstabby, betrayal-laden one-shot format. Excellent fun and hat tip to @matthewbroome.bsky.social for making it all happen!
Fantastic second session of @storybrewersroleplaying.com with @omnihedron.co.uk this morning - our mixed doubles brother and sister team lost in the semis, but reached some sort of bond as a family. This is a fantastic game, with amazing techniques that just drive story. Sports with feelings ftw!
#DnD ready- name that adventure! (3rd level, running it as a one-shot tonight)
