HELLO! It's been three weeks since I posted a video, but I'm finally back at it!! This one's sponsored by DM's Guild and it's all about a book called Ancestral Weapons that I'm absolutely obsessed with.

I am struggling valiantly to get back on top of my video schedule, which means I am once again putting the finishing touches on Wednesday's video at 10pm on Tuesday night... but as I perform my weekly fruitless hunt for The Perfect Background Music (nothing fits! why does nothing fit!) I thought I'd share these stills, each paired with a truly groanworthy pun in the video.
There's gonna be a video tomorrow!! Really! PROMISE!!
2022-06-01 03:54:33 +0000 UTC View PostHey all — I've just made the decision to postpone the video I was trying to create for tomorrow (Fresh Cut Grass cosplay) after realizing that I won't be able to get it done in time for a Wednesday release, and can't postpone it without it crashing into the other oncoming deadlines.
That's the only real information in this post. Feel free to stop here if you aren't interested in a rant 😅

Hey everyone! The PM edition of the May Patron-only stream is starting in about fifteen minutes! If you want to join us, make sure to click through to YouTube to participate in chat, because I won't be checking Patreon comments during the stream.

Download Morelia's character sheet.
Morelia as an NPC in your campaign will be most useful as a resource for potions and as a source for fetch quests, but she can also accompany your party on a quest as an ally! Morelia's character sheet includes:
I see so many people saying that they want to roleplay more with their party, but they aren't sure how! This video is focused on 7 different roleplay "seeds" — repeatable methods to start relationship-building conversations with your fellow adventurers. Hope you like it!

Hey friends! We'll be doing our May patron-exclusive livestream on May 21! There will be two streams, one at 10 am and one at 5pm (both MT). These streams will cover the same topics — I mostly host two so that I can cover the most time zones! But of course, you're welcome to attend both.
The streams are hosted on YouTube and you will need a YouTube account in order to participa...

Hey all! It's just past midnight so unfortunately I think I'm gonna be cutting tomorrow's video very close by wrapping up the edit tomorrow morning, which means no early access 😩 This is mostly because, as you see, I filmed... uh... six different characters for one video. (Will she ever learn? Science may never know.)
Anyway, I thought I'd at least give you some stills and encourage your wild speculation!!

This is my favorite character sheet yet, I think! I'm especially fond of the magic items. Augury's character sheet includes:

Hey all! Join me now-ish for some digital co-working — I will stream the wildly exciting subject of "me working quietly," and you can get some of your own work done at the same time (or not! I'm not your boss!) I'll chat a little, and we can check in with each other on our goals, but overall this is largely a no-talking stream.

Did..... did I just post an early access video on a MONDAY? Please, please hold your applause (but seriously, clap, this is progress for me!!)
This week's video is probably going to be a little controversial! It's all about the most common advice I see people giving beginner DMs, and why I think it's terrible. Watch it here!
(Also, Francis returns!!)

I know there's been a lot of Aisling lately, but my friend Nessa wanted to try out a "rhinestone elf ear" concept, so we teamed up for this spring-y look! I haven't put together a true spring Aisling cosplay yet, but I knew I wanted cherry blossoms in her hair, and I'm desperate to use my new Selkie dress for pretty much anything, haha.

Hey friends! Shot a little Instagram ad for today featuring Aisling and Nightshade, so I also snapped a few stills while I was in costume! I've been experimenting a lot with editing style lately and I don't even know if I like this desaturated, dark style, but the beauty of Lightroom is that it's very easy to redo the whole set in a different style if I try something else and like it more!
By the way, I'm not doing a YouTube video this week — I was originally planning on releasing the...

Sorry folks, I really wanted to get this one out early for you, but I was waiting up until the very last second for sponsor approval/info! (Fun fact: Often when I use a graphic that covers the full screen, like the one I used here to show the coupon code, it's because I'm covering up a spot where I had to cut in new voiceover to correct something 😅)
In any case, here's this week's video: How to create mixed race characters in D&D using "An Elf and an Orc Had a Little Baby," a sup...

Hey all! This is Lilix, a centaur/tiefling character that I created for a video about mixed D&D races.
I'm hard at work on tomorrow's video (I filmed the costume portion of it this morning... I started getting into paint at 6am, which I do NOT recommend 😅) but just wanted to share a quick little before/after of my set!
This backdrop is actually quite big and would've worked without any editing for a slightly closer shot at a lower angle, but because I wanted to include head...

As per last week's poll results, for March's commentary, I've put together more of a "storytime" video about D&D in a Castle! Sorry, it's very long, I'm a rambler... and this one didn't have an actual video length to constrain me 😅
This is mostly about the actual travel experience and my own personal experience, because the YouTube video I'm working on will be more about the castle and what the event is like!

When I started DMing my first game in 2019, I had no idea what I was doing. If I could go back in time and teach my past self some essential Dungeon Master lessons to make my first D&D game better, here's the advice I'd give her!
2022-04-06 07:28:52 +0000 UTC View PostHello friends! SO, I was originally planning on releasing a new music video in March, but the D&D in a Castle trip ended up consuming a lot of time, and it's been delayed. Because of that, I'm not entirely sure what my commentary video should be about for March!
Here's a poll, but if you have other ideas, you're welcome to put them into the comments! I will be informed by these poll results, but might not strictly obey them, haha.
Also, please note, in case it comes up: Critic...

Oh hi! I’m currently at the airport in Amsterdam in between flights to D&D in a Castle, but I forgot to share these behind the scenes pics from my upcoming music video, Castin’ a Spell — the latest in the Rulebook Rock series!
These three lovely casters will be teaching regular-Ginny how spell casting works, so she can mess up werewolf-Josh with some magic missiles.
Coming soon! Ish! At an indeterminate time that might even be next week! But probably won’t be!
