The Power Word Unity Logo, a rainbow of handprints arranged in a cirlce
If you were at the first Power Word Unity event at PAXU, you know how impactful it can be for us all to come together. We created a Discord Server for BIPOC folks in TTRPGs to be able to do that year round. Use the link here to sign up: discord.gg/hEsUf9zpec

Luna P.'s profile picture
Day 16: When you look at a game book or pamphlet, and the graphic design is immaculate AND creative, Luna P probably did it. If you're a publisher, hire her.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Cartoon avatar of Ava Islam
Day 14: Ava Islam is one of the most interesting OSR designers I know of. Errant is a masterwork and the Electrum Archive is fascinating… she takes me to the first promise I saw in TTRPGS: a game where you can do anything, with “game” and “anything” getting equal emphasis. @avaislam.bsky.social

Join us for a game of Our Brilliant Ruin over on @adhadventures.bsky.social !
www.twitch.tv/adhadventures
Day 10: Yamil (@yamilyamilyamil.bsky.social) has been doing cool OSR design for a minute, and his new project Tales from the Tape Deck launches soon. There's a lot that looks like fun here, but what I'm excited most about is the soundtrack that acts as a game timer
