Why did I choose the day before AthventureCon to start a job that requires me to wake up at 4:15am? I'm glad I have TTRPG money but not liking the sleep I lose along the way

EUphoria's signature navy blue background with yellow d4 stars and sparkles. EUphoria's logo in the top left, a round yellow frame with navy blue background, and a large shooting star made up of yellow d4s streaking from right to left, a yellow tail trailing behind. A large logo in the centre of frame - similar to the EUphoria logo, but with a lighter blue on the streaks of the comet's tail, a light blue broken circle orbiting the star, and two yellow d8s floating on that orbit. Text below, in a yellow-outlined white blocky font reads 'Coming May 2026' Bottom text reads 'supported by' next to a Moonshine Adventure Company logo, a sandy yellow moon draped in a purple banner bearing the words 'The Moonshine Adventure Co.' and surrounded by small stars.

It's real.

It's online, and it's European timezone friendly.

Get ready for a day of talks and panels, and a day of community games, all built from the ground up to be accessible, diverse, and to build community across borders!

Excellent 😈

The wolves be acting up in these parts!

There's no reason to pause! I'm just a lil guy and I would never do anything horrifying to fully consenting adults!

Just making sure, everyone in my game signed that waiver I gave you right?

Listen, one thing is for sure @athventurecon.bsky.social. Those poor souls will absolutely find welcome!

Post blood rave findings:
- More blood was needed both in bags and from the ceiling.
- When not interrupted by slayers, vampires throw some serious shapes on the dancefloor.

Bad DnD Advice A wise GM is one who never stops reading. Once the movie comes out, your players will recognize where you’re ripping your campaigns’ plots from. @nat1advice.tbm.games

What a run.. you didn't even need to change any characters' names.

I am dedicated to researching games I intend on playing. I've been considering Vampire the Masquerade so, of course I'm going to a Valentine's blood rave. It's the only logical way of conducting research.

The “No ICE in Minnesota” bundle is officially live on itch! Spread the word and buy the bundle if you can to support a good and important cause. 💕

I contributed both my poetry-writing one-pager, Brewing Serendipity, and Sail the Oceans Queer to this bundle.

Why didn't anyone tell me how scary pilates is! It's like being strapped to a scooter and being in constantly terrified of slamming your head on the handle bars... Though I do predict I'll be ripped as hell in a month 😂

A new month begins tomorrow and so spins our Rent-O-Meter! Besides the €2k we need to pay rent by Feb 11th we also have €1500+ in bills to pay and €1000 in 2025 debt left!

A dozen new graphic novel subscriptions would go a long way to solving our money problems!

So thrilled to join the Moonshine team as a game master.

Let's go on an adventure together, eh?

But it's not just your street cred that is on the line, there is also cake that those silly hoomans have. And what upstanding geeses would allow a hooman to have all the cake??

GM Caitlin is aka The Dreaded DM but honestly nothing dreadful there at all, we found the exact opposite!

Hoooonnnkkk!!!

Yes we have at #AthCon4 we have not one but two chances to run with the gooseseses!

GM Cathlin returns with a trio of games the first one being The Great Cake Heist (a H.O.NK. game system) where you play geeseseses in gang warfare against those evil ducks in Phoenix Park!

Hey hey! I like to play games and these are the games that I'm running right now on Startplaying. Pull up a chair and grab a snack because you're all welcome at my table!

Happy Belated New Year! I'm back and decided to talk about some new old things!

I have a page on StartPlaying where I run one shots on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I'm hoping to get a campaign going on Fridays. I've made a little reel talking about it, please enjoy!

I'm less than 30 pages into this comic and
my face is now permanently pinched in horror and revulsion. In the best possible way, this comic is viscerally unhinged. @sebcosset.bsky.social your art is amazing but unhinged 😳

Bad DND Advice At some point, you have to learn what each of the dice looks like. @nat1advice.tbm.games

Listen... Is this arc sad? Yes.
Do moments from this arc occur to me at random moments in my real life? Yes.
Did @tallnerdapollo.bsky.social, @dylananddragons.bsky.social and I make a pact to have an intervention for Declan as a result of what happened in this arc? Yes.

So you should listen it.

Day 11 of getting to know Dread. I run games at events, conventions, even online! My latest IRL event was in Charleville Castle for D&D Eire. I truly love running public games so if you want to experience my DMing in your own home check out my StartPlaying page:

Day 10 of getting to know Dread. I have been called consistently inconsistent... Mostly about content creation but honestly other parts of my life aren't much better 🙃

Day 9 of getting to know Dread. I'm both older and younger than I look and I can't make that make sense.

Day 8 of getting to know Dread. Someone at an event called me intimidating. That was truly the best day of my life.
