Very cool! I love this it sounds like you're doing a bit of PKM/Note Gardening over there compiling your works into one place. I'm excited to see how this world of yours develops!

I'm thinking I will use my substack as a way to develop my own homebrew campaign guide in public. Via worldbuilding articles, poetry and storytelling amongsty solo actual plays.

"my game is run with a “humans only” house rule"

Always. I know there are people who disagree, but... it's actually more fun.

This looks really cool, thanks for sharing!

Thank you!

And yes, that’s been a long standing one for me as I don’t personally enjoy running traditional high fantasy stuff most of the time and prefer humans as the greatest monsters of all!

Appreciate you looking.

Agreed, sword and sorcery style is my jam. Low magic, humans only, etc.

(And honestly no one really role-plays other races anyway. Its like their character might as well just be wearing a magic hat.)

Really interesting, look forward to seeing more! Kind of feels a little like classic Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, except a century or so earlier and a few hundred leagues eastwards.

Thank you for checking it out! I never played Warhammer but I’ll take that as a compliment.

Muh dude. This is something. Without trying to steal any thunder, have you seen SlavBorg?

Hey!

I have a bit of exhaustion at the moment with MB “hacks” haha. I have seen it being kickstarted though.

Unfortunately I think a lot of them are neat ideas without a great deal of support.

Some thing that might be fun to run once, but generally I think what would be better for people to do is put out quality adventures for the base setting, which is what I am about to do as soon as it comes back from my graphics guy.

Truuuuuuue dat. I've been guilty of hopping that train like a hope hobo, and I haven't even PLAYED.
