Fine Clothing and Musical Instruments - a pair of d20 generator tables to create fine Vaarnish clothing and weird musical instruments. No real gameplay purpose but it's a lot of fun and fleshes out the world in a small way.

Oracle's Sanctum Location - a new regional location type. Sanctums are the dwelling place of a mysterious Vaarnish Oracle. Create one on p.166.

Fortress Location - a new regional location type. Fortresses are what they say on the tin - fortified positions that are usually controlled by one of the Major Factions. Create one on p.157.

100 Story Seeds - this is quite a big piece of new content, found on p.81-82. You can use 4d100 to create weird emergent fragments of narrative, suitable for backstories, incidental drama, myths and legends, narrative songs, prophecies, rumours, news from afar.

Sample Elixirs - we now have d20 example Elixirs to find as treasure. This also now completes the starting equipment for all PC options, so there should be no more holes in PC creation

Vaults of Vaarn Second Edition Project Update: March 2026 Update [LAPIS SERPENT] Hello wanderers, This missive comes a little later than I wanted, as I've been waylaid again by the typical February plagues that ravage everyone who has small children.  A...

Another month another preview draft of Vaults of Vaarn 2E! This month we have the Lapis Serpent draft with all new features www.backerkit.com/c/projects/v...

Many appealing options here

These are fun, their curse of mistrust and the making new giants from clay parts are really compelling

Thank you. Will write some more when schedule allows it, think the idea has legs

I was thinking about a “dying moon” setting haha. I think the direction this naturally takes you is gothic horror and weird fiction inspired

Thank you! Little exercise while I had some spare time

Maybe nothing maybe something

The means justify the end

The omens are looking fantastic your excellency. The rivers have turned red, the traditional colour of Labour. Likewise the goat born with a man’s face symbolises the continued viablility of third way economics

I believe that now the PMs wicked advisors have been ousted, he will be free to make the great political decisions we all know he’s capable of! Don’t give up Sir Keir!

Alarming scenes at number 10 this morning, sources report Starmer took a delivery of 16 alpacas and a nail gun, no statement from his office yet

I think having the Handsome Mayor of NYC coming to his office just puts him in a good mood tbh, he doesn’t seem to enjoy much about being president but stuff like that is a thrill for him still

Exciting! I’m kept in the writing silo so haven’t seen much of the art side

Is this for scourge?

Looking through my old note drafts and found some formative Vaarn stuff from various periods. I’ve never actually done much with the vocabulary I learned for deserts and dunes

Yikes… unfollowing now..

He’ll yeah love this

Does she ever imagine what they’re saying when you’re not there

I like the idea of a deck of cards that refer to false or divergent histories somehow

I do enjoy trying to make sense of the baffling prompts it spits out. What could possibly connect these things
