A hardbound copy of Making Enemies on a wooden dining table. On the cover, a huge, pearlescent arthropod bursts out of a subterranean crevice and drives one of its large barbed claws through a dwarf fighter's abdomen, while another dwarf cowers in fear. The book is surrounded by blue and red polyhedral dice.

Using the silicon The Weird dice in tonight's game, and they are bouncing all over the table. They're like superballs but in the form of dice. The d10 is especially fun.

This experience is deeply pleasing to my 12-year-old self.

#CypherSystem
Two silicone dice in swirled peach, raspberry, and turquoise sit on a table. The d6 shows a 3, and the d20 shows OOPS!

My brain: I want to work with some more feminine forms...
Also my brain: Nailed it.

Remember:
• Relax you jaw
• Take a deep breath
• Drink water
• Stretch your tentacles.

Huge thanks to Bear Weiter at @montecookgames.com Games for letting me paint this weirdo. 😍

A humaniod creature with blade like feet, and boney chest. One arm is tentacles and the other is casting blue magic.

I totally forgot to share this! I made some screaming tumbleweeds for @montecookgames.com a few months back. This was such a fun assignment. :)

Numenera is, in my honest opinion, the best supported and documented science-fantasy setting for any system currently available. People toss around the idea of "endless possibilities" for their games and settings as a marketing gimmick, MCG walks the walk with this setting. #TTRPG #CypherSystem 1/2

"[Numenera is a] complete and historically deep setting, as alien to us as we are to our Neanderthal ancestors . . . You'll find plenty of hooks to work with and enough space if you want to make up your own." —Review from Board Game Geek
Numenera: The Amber Archive
The wondrous and inspiring science-fantasy RPG Numenera returns in a new edition filled with new art, creatures, lore, numenera items, and adventures. Step into the amazing Ninth World—a critically acclaimed, fan-loved RPG setting like none other!

The focus step might be my favourite. Full ability trees, tier by tier, so you can see exactly where a focus leads before you pick it. This one is Controls Beasts.

~~CAST REVEAL~~

We're playing #TidalBlades for the #CypherSystem by @montecookgames.com to raise money for this charity event. The game sessions will take place on 7/23 and 8/6 at 8:30 pm eastern time! Check out these magnificent faces as we dive deep into this aquatic setting!

#TTRPG #Charity
An image as if viewed from underwater, with ripples and rocky edges leading up to a gradient of dark blue to light cyan. At the top right corner of the image is a silhouette of a whale. Overtop the background image in the center and upper right of the promo we see Orange bubble lettering that reads: "Oceans Apart - Sessions on 7/23 & 8/6 @ 8pm eastern on https://twitch.tv/thornydryad". The logos for Tidal Blades, Heroes of the Reef (a white lettered logo with a bright blue outline) and the Cypher System logo (a stylized red circle with the words "Cypher System" in blocky black lettering) can be seen under the orange words above. Below that is more orange lettering that says "a charity two shot adventure benefitting:" There are 7 bubble-like outlines interspersed over the oceanic backdrop image. In one of them is the Best Friends Animal Society Logo, which is an orange image that looks like a dog face, with the words "best friends" at the bottom. In the other six circles are images of the various players, with their names beneath them in orange lettering. Wren is in the upper left, Glaiza is in the one below that and Zoup to the lower left of Glaiza's image. At the bottom is a circle with Lissa's face in it, towards the center. Then to the right of that is a bubble with Val's image and finally, Trout is in the lower right corner. Trout's name is actually above its image bubble.

Yes, Cypher does this genre too. 🎲

A dedicated tea-warming spell is a real build choice and the cosiest line on any sheet.

That's It's Only Magic: modern magic.

A while back I placed an order with @montecookgames.com for some #numenera and #cyphersystem #ttrpg books. I added this note:

“(gollum voice) I wants, NEEDS more bookses!!”

Later, when my order arrived, this was on the shipping box. I just love the crew over at MCG! 🥰
A ballpoint-pen sketch of the creature Gollum, drawn on a cardboard shipping box. Gollum is kneeling and grinning, and a thought bubble above his head includes a book labeled “CSR” (Cypher System Rulebook). This is an example of how the team at Monte Cook Games is amazing and does lots of little things to delight their customers and players. They even add sketches to shipping boxes in response to the nerdy comments you add to your order. 😊
