"We tell inclusive, engaging stories and make space for everyone at our tables."

Enter the Bludgeon, an indie TTRPG system created by Tejas Oza! Kay Purcell and David Lee sat down with the Bludgeon Master himself, a video game dev by day, indie TTRPG creator by night, to learn more about this D20 based system, the setting, and how the Bludgeon aims to make magic feel more magical and classes feel more unique within the game itself. We also talk about working with artists, drawing inspiration from various sources, and just what makes a bard a bard.

Things got a little spicy this week on Chaotic Wholesome Presents when Carson Daniel came by to talk about his successful Kickstarter #TTRPG, Tales from Myriad, with co-hosts Kay Purcell and David Lee. We discussed the adorable but deadly Tales from Myriad, creating randomized characters, exploration mechanics, and why you should make your character creation fun. We also spend a good bit of time talking about the different aspects players enjoy and look for in a game, as well as dive deep in answering a question from chat: What what make a TTRPG fun to you?
