Curses in the Verve | Worldbuilding Devlog

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · 8d

This video has one of my best view-to-like ratios in a while which is really nice to see as it's some of my favourite worldbuilding I've done so far for the Verve.

If you haven't seen it yet I'd love you to check it out 😉

New video today! Some more worldbuilding stuff which I think is super cool 😅

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · 14d

I have of course got back from hols and been very slow at working on the next one... 🫣

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · 14d

Saw this on @masteringdnd.bsky.social and knew it was immediately something I would be into, I have my own plans for something like this specifically for the Verve 👀

Really excited to find out what @runicpressgames.com have put together here!

@jdragsky.bsky.social with some awesome new work, and articulates a critique on safety tools as thought-terminating rather than exploration-encouraging that I've been trying to express for a while

This is exactly the kind of design I love, put anything on axes and I am fully onboard!
I've never thought of doing it with safety tools!

If I include rules for safety tools in the Verve it will definitely use this.

Getting back into revealing the combat classes for the Verve 👀

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · Jul 14

I'm away from home for work tomorrow this week so the video I had hoped to come out this week will be next week.

I've got so many video scripts written the bottleneck is always editing.

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · Jul 2

New video just came out but it's a re-upload with some fixed audio.

Been a task on my to-do list for a while.

The Verve @thevervettrpg.bsky.social · Jul 1

Woop woop!
