  • Blue horizon advanced alchemy system

    I wanted to have a system for alchemy that was not purely tables and dice, and was inspired by some fun solo board games. This is the result and I like it quite a bit! Characters gather alchemy ingredients by trade, exploration, or harvesting during camp. As long as they have proper equipment they can…

  • Blue Horizon Magic Traditions and Theorized Realms

    Originally written for use in Shattered worlds and adapted to reflect the planar cosmology of Blue Horizons as understood by the Tel Kairos magisters. As such, this is not the correct model of the metaverse – just one flawed understanding. The goal is to flavor spellcasting to be planar and weighs the type of magic…

  • All the Things We Never Play

    When I first started in this hobby I was 14. It was a less crowded digital world then; you had a few major names creating content, and most of them were focused on advice and musings more than actual, usable creations. I admired these creators who were able to spin up a website and consistently…

  • Too Many Silos, Not Enough Grain

    If this blog does not make it too clear, I love tabletop role playing games. I tend to spend almost all my free time thinking about them, playing them, and making content for them. So when I think of them, I have a habit of circling around the same tools and models of thought. Unfortunately,…

  • The Work Must Carry On

    I started this blog to reduce the stress and fears of sharing what I make with others. In the first few months that worked well – I had a string of posts that I think were good content. But as is my flaw, I quickly obsessed with only ever sharing what is perfect…and then over…

  • Monsters In Shattered Worlds

    Those who awaken with a Will naturally attract creatures from across the planes who wish to serve, be associated with, or otherwise ride the coattails of them. These can be from a wide variety of discovered planes and walks of life, and a wide variety of ability. By utilizing these beings, the true power of…

  • Symbol: Shattered Worlds

    A bright light attracts others in a city between the remains of ten thousand worlds You are one of the few beings still alive after the mesocosmic collapse. The entirety of reality as we know it is gone. Only the twisted, surreal wreckage remains. Somehow, your Will has emerged still alive. Your physical form can…

  • A Model for Elf Game Analysis and Discussion

    In which I try to create a model to discuss any TTRPGS and fail yet still make something that others can use even if only to see how they disagree with it. Why the Hell Do I Care? Because you’ve always wanted to discuss ttrpgs with others but grown frustrated with the lack of a…

  • Magic Words: A New System for Magic in Elf Games

    I am hacking magic in my upcoming weird elf game so it is more dynamic, weird, risky, and less…mundane. the current idea is to take the GLOG magic system, combine it with a series of Magic Words drawn from various sources, and turn it loose on the world. if you want to skip the boring…
