@gcvsa there absolutely needs to be more TTRPG content written by PoC, and this isn’t a refutation of that, but in the interest of supporting Asian creators and an Asian studio, I absolutely love what Centaur Games is doing with their A Thousand Thousand Islands setting and I try to recommend it at pretty much every opportunity I get
@WestCoastChelle if they like fantasy, the Singing Hills Cycle by Nghi Vo is a great series! The novellas are quick reads, and not very related to each other, but they are all very enjoyable, and the NB main character is present throughout all of them.
I’ve seen a lot of artist Patreon’s who make #DnD battle maps, but they’re always very small, they usually look like they could only fit a handful of people.

I think we need to take a moment to acknowledge that, with OGL 1.1, @[email protected] and @[email protected] are effectively making the game less diverse and inclusive, and by extension, TTRPGs in general.

For us minorities, #DnD is often an entry point.

@Smcc this is super helpful advice, thanks! We knew we would have to figure out a way to agree on style, but couldn’t figure out the best way to do it. This makes a lot of sense though
@kellyblack glad to hear even the professionals are using Google docs at the start! The ability to collaborate on there is really great
@ng76 ok but if someone were to actually make a guide to creating wave crawls I would absolutely read it
