The newest episode of The Darkened Threshold is about cinematic gameplay! Alex and I dig deep into this often misunderstood concept, and I think it's one of the best episodes we've ever done. A perfect Thanksgiving travel listen.

Just got back from PAXU and feeling energized, inspired, and ready to create something? I have some opportunities that might interest you! I'm hitting the ground running on a new project, The Lands Remaining, and there are ways to get involved. Details in the thread!

The real question in The Lands Remaining is which rot-themed twink are you sending to the Mourning Tower? Mushroom twink or flower twink?

Recording back-to-back episodes of Public Access with The Bad Spot. Things should be rather interesting if my shirt is anything to go by.

This is the worst shirt I own (my vegetarian bf HATES it). But it’s very appropriate for today’s session of Public Access with The Bad Spot!

Very pleased with these Relics for one of The Lands Remaining's playbooks, The Candle-Bearer.
![The Burning Branch
A ▢heavy, staff-like candelabra made of iron. When used to ▢light the way in the dark places of the world, its dozen or so candles ▢cannot be extinguished.
[Two blank lines with checkboxes]
The Nullwick
A candle-snuffer with the ▢vows of the Waxen Order engraved upon it in reverse. It can ▢extinguish a flame no bigger than a campfire from several paces away, ▢creating an unusually deep and complete darkness.
[Two blank lines with checkboxes]
The Ever-Crucible
A ceramic vessel, cool to the touch, containing ▢a heat that burns ten times hotter than a forge. It is said to contain ▢all that remains of the Old Fire.

Take walks, read books, and hang out with your friends once a week. It’s the only way we can defeat these tech-ghouls.

Alex and I are back with a new episode of The Darkened Threshold. In this one, we're talking about The Backrooms—the internet phenomenon and the short film by Kane Pixels. We also discuss the challenges (and opportunities) of adapting The Backrooms to TTRPGs. www.gauntlet-rpg.com/the-darkened...

I'm a huge Mariana Enriquez fan, and her new book, Somebody is Walking On Your Grave, is really outstanding (so far—I'm about a third of the way through). I have rarely felt so connected to an author and their way of looking at the world.
