Announcing: Restful Actions

(It's here. You can go get it now!)

Restful Actions is a collection of 10 minigames for downtime periods in any TTRPG. They're designed to help players resolve character conflicts, complete goals, heal or explore, and take much shorter shopping trips. (You can, in fact, download the shopping trip minigame as a demo!)

For GMs, the goal is to give you a break, so you can start preparing the next Big Event. The minigames invite players to fill in some details of the world, creating shops, landmarks, even creatures.

You can pick up your copy here:

I've talked about this thing in more detail here:

I Just Wrote A Murder Hotel!

Copper Shores is a system-agnostic murder mystery supplement that is designed with games such as Brindlewood Bay, External Containment Bureau, and Apocalypse Keys in mind. However, you can use it for any murder mystery by using the Optional Mystery Rules that help the GM put together a mystery that the play group solves as you play. I created this game for the Moonshot Murder Mystery Jam, which is running until the end of October. This game will be Pay-What-You-Want for the duration of the jam!

The Dreaming Temple Postcard Dungeon

Our next TTRPG dungeon is a mysterious temple full of waterfalls that fall forever and pools of water that never overflow. Here, slumber wizards practice their dream magic and a locked vault holds a mystical weapon that sings lullabies. 💤

Join the Diploberry Dungeon Club to get this postcard dungeon and stickies in your mailbox!

Also check out the Dinoberry Studio youtube channel, because soon we'll share a video on how Jam put this dungeon all together! :)

Hepterra, the Eastern Continents of Genitryx

My original campaign setting I've been running for 5+ years now FINALLY has a proper map! Plan to do regional maps of the different areas soon-ish. Also will probably revisit this map at some point - likely when I have more experience with Inkarnate under my belt to do more with it.

I re-discovered my 100k word, working document for the first draft of the "Vagrant Sun Campaign Setting", back when I was doing DnD 5e content.

It wouldn't take much work to "agnosticify" it and it's pretty much a complete document for the region.

Would y'all be interested in having a read? I could make the full PDF downloadable on itch, patreon and even just a drive link?

Again... 100,000 words that will otherwise sit on my hard drive.

The Disquieting yet Delectable Demise of Duke Danoise is a cherry-themed murder mystery setting with pre-written characters!

Playable up to 11 people!

One of my first published settings and currently half-off (3.50$!) for halloween!!

You can find a breakdown of our first playtest and my post-mortem (haha) thoughts on it.

This also has a free character expansion in the works with 9 additional characters, hopefully to be released in the next couple months. I had so much fun writing and playing this setting that I really wanted to flesh out who you could play as, and the variety of characters in group.

If you play it, do let me know how you liked it!!! :)

SETTING SUMMARY

This story takes place on the Danoise estate nearly a month following the death of Duchess Anne Danoise.

A beloved entrepreneur and the late owner of the Danoise Legacy, she’s known for making several namesake businesses bloom during her time as Duchess. Wife of one and Mother of none, her passing has the entire town eager to find out how her numerous assets will be divided.

Her husband, Duke Lambert Danoise, is left with the heavy duty of executing her last wishes and wrapping up loose ends. As such, he invites several key people to the reading of her will.

Everyone makes their way to The Manor on the morning of the reading, some expecting to receive riches from the Danoise inheritance, and some for more...sinister reasons.
