2022, rpg’s and me.

It has been nearly a full year since I've posted on my RPG website. Work and a re-establishing of a video game habit have definitely contributed to that. I also just haven't had as much passion for gaming in the past year as previously. It has been a struggle to get players involved on the …

Solo RPG gaming

So I have decided to wrap up (well, take a hiatus) from my weekend Ironsworn game to focus on family time. I still am so interested in playing different systems and exploring different ways of story telling. Thus comes along some solo roleplaying. In particular, three things prompted and promoted this desire: I bought the …

Ironsworn – Sibilia’s Story – Chapter 2 – part 2

As the light faded, I began my hunt. The soft ground of the jungle made tracking easy. My foot falls were muffled on the wet leaf litter and the paw prints of some beast were easily visible. After half an hour of following tracks through the undergrowth, it happened. From the side, I heard a …

Forbidden Lands – finally, though a slightly different take.

So I have had the Forbidden Lands RPG by Fria Ligan for some time. I've been so keen to play it but wanted to play it in person. With the beautiful map it comes with and legacy stickers, it seemed to be a perfect game to get my DnD friends into it but away from …

Ironsworn – Sibilia’s Story – Chapter 2 – part 1

Chapter 2: Nakata’s Quest - part 1 It had been weeks since I left to avenge Vigo, instead of feeling satisfied, all I had was mourning. Ithela had fallen during our quest, the wounds she sustained from the unnatural beast had been too much for her and she died on the way back home. I …

Commemorative Bookmark for Humblewood

So I had a little bit of art fun these past days. I have been playing a very casual game of Humblewood (DnD 5E) with my son and occasionally with my wife. We even went to the park a week and a half ago and played about a three hour session under the trees. My …

First map in ages, gosh it’s fun.

Just a couple of photos of my most recent map. A bit of a desert island, though some trees might be in order somewhere. A desert island to which adventure calls! Our Humblewood characters need a piece of minotaur horn. My first compass rose. I was pretty happy with how it turned out, pops right …

Scum and Villainy session #1

So after playing a two session game of Microscope, then spending the equivalent of a session building out locations and factions (this was actually really fun and helped endlessly from our Microscope game), we played our first session of Scum and Villainy. It was really fun, with teething problems. The teething problems were mainly that …

Microscope RPG – So much fun.

So in preparation for our Scum and Villainy game, my friends and I played a couple of sessions of Microscope to build out our world. The GM, Tom, suggested it but I had the game in my other RPG's folder for some time and was excited to give this game a go. And oh, was …

Humblewood – important traits your characters would know.

Session 2 Alderheart - The great tree city The center of civic life and government in the wood is the city of Alderheart. It is a giant tree which shades out the forest for over two kilometers. All manner of goods and people, both birdfolk and humblefolk, can be found living together here. It is …
