RODENT-VERIFIED (3x)

TL;DR: I’d love your thoughts and feedback on a TTRPG tool.

My partner and I have been running a two-player campaign for years. Since having kids, finding time to play has become increasingly difficult; we manage to make progress in stolen moments, like at the kitchen table or between bath time and snack time. We play in the Dragon Age setting but use rules cobbled together from various books. We mostly play theater of the mind style, using dice apps on our phones (otherwise, our youngest tries to eat the physical dice...). We used to manage everything via Google Drive and Chrome’s built-in dice roller, but that setup stopped working for us.

I tried WorldAnvil but found it too clunky and ill-suited to our needs. So, my partner (a developer) built a tool to help me with world-building (I wanted to create a wiki since I’ve completely overhauled the original setting, though that’s a story for another time). I needed a timeline with specific features (I’m dyscalculic), and the tool gradually evolved to meet our needs.

My partner wondered if other players and DMs might be interested in it. Since he's not on tumblr, I suggested posting about it here to see if the tool resonates with anyone else. Please feel free to share your feedback, he’d really appreciate it! :)

Have a great day, everyone!

An idea I had for Blood of Eden propaganda/recruitment posters featuring some of our favorite guys - combo of digital-print cyberpunk graphic design style with oldschool Saturday Morning Post covers like you'd see Leyendecker paintings on

I was gonna post these ahead of tabling at a small con and selling prints of them but ended up not tabling because turns out grad school is hard

Grunting with exertion as he hauled the weighty volume out of his satchel, author George R.R. Martin was seen Tuesday handing his agent an unsolicited, 4,000-page manuscript titled “Tuba Man, Scuba Man.” “Hey, remember that idea I had about a big band leader using a tuba as a diving bell to bring jazz to an underwater civilization of mermaids? Well, it’s finally ready!” said a visibly excited Martin, adding that the sprawling undersea tale of musicianship and political maneuvering had been his primary creative focus over the past 15 years.
