When taking stock of your accomplishments for 2025, if it turns out that the one big thing you got done was to continue to survive 2020, remind yourself that you’re doing great and you are not alone.

Lake Superior - Wikipedia

Are you familiar with the origin of the line “Superior, it’s said, never gives up her dead”? Because it’s freaky.

FRPG GM Tip: Keeping downtime interesting is made easier by ensuring that everyone stays engaged. Set up downtime “random encounters” around interesting investigation or social tasks, then have those encounters seek out characters who don’t have a downtime activity they want to focus on.

FRPG Player Tip: The best part of starting a new campaign with a brand-new character is that feeling of crafting a blank slate on which anything is possible. The secret to great gaming is that your character constantly evolving as the campaign unfolds means never having to let that feeling go away.

FRPG GM Tip: If your virtual tabletop doesn’t give players as much opportunity as you’d like to add notes or images to a campaign record, look for a different online solution for that part of the campaign. Having a digital space that everyone can share is a great way to encourage collaboration.

"Have I to listen to this accused song once more," growled the barbarian, the knuckles of his clenched fist standing out white against his bronzed skin, "by Crom it will be raining blood in this office!"

This cross-pollination IS how new ideas happen. EVERY field needs humanistic thinking, that's why they call PhDs "Doctors of Philosophy"

FRPG Player Tip: If there’s a particular magic item that you know would help complete your character concept, tell the GM about it. Most GMs fret endlessly about making sure treasure rewards feel special, so it’s great to have something special to drop into a hoard or turn into a side quest.

Google's "AI Overview" invents essay I've never written, about a book published two years after I was supposed to have written it, while claiming the book was published six years before it was published. For gifts like these, the global economic teeters on the verge of collapse.

FRPG Player Tip: If your character has a mount, a companion creature, a magical statuette that turns into a dire tiger, or what have you, personalize that pet to your heart’s desire. And don’t be afraid to talk to the GM about having story hooks revolve around a pet if that feels like fun.

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.

It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

FRPG GM and Player Tip: The right number of tests and checks to make in a game is the number that feels the most fun. If too many checks start to feel tedious, or if not enough checks makes it feel as if the characters aren’t doing anything, talk about what changes might make for a better balance.

Y’all, Claudio is a friend of mine down in Brazil. He is a terrific person and a terrific artist!

He’s in need of some gigs to help make ends meet.

Maybe some D&D character commissions for your group for the holidays?

Please share!

I do this with resistance too to keep players on their toes or when they're metagaming- though there's always a story element/reason to it as well- and I will describe the creature as appearing different in some way from the "standard" they may be aware of.

FRPG GM Tip: Taking a stock monster and converting some of their damage to a different type is one of the fastest ways to customize foes. Skeletons with lightning swords or cultists whose fire spells deal poison instead can give an otherwise straightforward encounter a unique feel.

Instead of doing a consumerism on "Black" Friday, consider supporting small businesses, dropping a few coins in someone's ko-fi or go fund me, sign up for their patreon instead.

Life is expensive, things are hard. Drop coins to humans, not AI, or big corporations today.

Why a reverse sale? We have plenty of opportunities to get the magazines for a low price all year. For this, I wanted to give folks who are able a chance to support us a little extra, so we can keep growing the publication.
