The bundle streamlined prep and kept me right on track. Check out Eventyr's many products at eventyrgames.com

The base module is great. Want even better? Daniel Kahn's ( @frictionlessdan.bsky.social )'s "Hither" "Thither" and "Yon Adventure Bundles" added challenge and delight to our game.

Pre-order The MCDM RPG on BackerKit This project was funded with $4.5m in December 2023 by a community of 30,000 generous Backers who believe.

So DRAW STEEL is out today, and I wanna thank a bunch of people who made it happen. I gotta start with the folks on my team every day who showed up with incredible passion and dedication @thewillyboo.bsky.social and @djordi.bsky.social. They are HEROES.

I love #dnd and I love #cthulhu but if you go and courageously fight Cthulhu and kill him doesnโ€™t that totally miss the point?

I honestly hadnโ€™t had any interest in trying Daggerheart until this review. Thanks Trek!

Worth a watch for the TTRPG-playing chemists and data analysts out there who donโ€™t consider themselves theatre kids.

I wish these planets came in untapped originally for colorless and gave colored mana after station 3 or something. Thereโ€™s just so much working against the playability of these even though theyโ€™re so cool . ๐Ÿ˜ญ

College of Education
Student-Centered Learning
You are trained to set up situations where students can teach and learn from one another. 
Starting at 3rd level, a creature you have given a Bardic Inspiration die to can use their reaction to give that die to a creature within 60 feet of it that is making an attack roll, contested ability check, or saving throw. A creature that does so gains a Tutelage dieโ€”which is always a d4. It lasts 10 minutes and uses all the same rules as your Bardic Inspiration die, except it can only be spent on the type of roll that the gifted die was used for.
Critical Reflection
One of the most important tenets of the College of Education is having the humility to look back on the past to do better in the future. 
Starting at 3rd level, when you cast a spell using a spell slot that requires a single creature to make a saving throw and that creature succeeds on the saving throw, you can use a reaction to reflect on the situation and learn from it. If you do, you can expend one use of Bardic Inspiration to regain the expended spell slot. Once you use this feature, you canโ€™t do so again until you finish a long rest.
Addressing Misconceptions
Your students often come ready to learn with misconceptions about the world around them, often inspired by fear, misleading information, or common misunderstandings. 
Starting at 6th level, you have been trained to adapt to help unravel and get to the root of ideas that drive misconceptions. As a reaction to a spell or effect causing the frightened or charmed condition on a creature within 30 feet, you may expend one use of Bardic Inspiration to begin using your Countercharm feature. 
Culturally Responsive Teaching
You have discovered that the best way to learn is through lived experiences with people from different backgrounds than your own. 
Starting at 6th level, you can use Charisma instead of Intelligence for ability checks using the History and Nature skills.

did you know I had a patreon!? I do! Although I don't promote it nearly enough.

I popped a crop rotation out of one of my โ€œhangs with bracket 2โ€ decks and a seedborn muse out of another. Kinda hoping these two go back to strong synergy rather than game changers.
