Oh, and I forgot, in February our lead developer, Ed Robinson, will be running the game. I'll just be playing. But don't worry, Ed is an awesome DM, and I'm an awful player. So this will be really entertaining... :D

Hello! I wanted to let you know about the next exciting project we have planned: the Lairs & Legends Kickstarter, planned to launch in early 2022.
For some time, patrons have been asking to have print versions of Lair Magazine, but that has unfortunately never been within the scope of what we've been able to offer. Logistical and cost considerations simply make it prohibitively expensive to prepare and ship monthly printed materials to a small audience.
Thus, the concept of th...

Many of my videos are just talking head advice style anyway, so I figured that an audio file might be helpful for folks who want to listen but not necessarily have to have YouTube pulled up.
