Church of System Agnosticism
"Never assume the way you do something is how someone else will do something" That's the best design advice I’ve been given. In my quest to design a Mega-Dungeon with a focus on Roleplay, I want to build something that can be used by many people and not just myself. I'm making sure to build … Continue reading Church of System Agnosticism
Travel Without Maps
In my journey to create an Accessible Mega-Dungeon with a focus on Roleplay, I need to ensure that journeying within it is fun. When I'm playing a TTRPG I want travel to feature a cool encounter as I move toward my destination. An obstacle, an interaction, an NPC or an event. Something which shows me … Continue reading Travel Without Maps
Stephen’s Notes Dec 22, 2022
Session 5 – Dec. 22, 2022 @ 3:00 EST We enter an area which leads to the gate to the goblin territory. Mobrukk checks for traps and doesn’t find any. He enters the room.

Ick
An Ick does not adhere to one simple shape, size, color, or design; it most resembles a stain on the floor, furniture, puddle of something unmentionable.

Critter Corner(Monster 23 Challenge)
This is a journey or a challenge self-imposed by myself, of course. I know that Jim is doing the Dungeon23 challenge and I didn't really want to do that, so I decided to create a Monster a day for 2023.

Stephen’s Notes Dec 13, 2022
Session 4 – Dec. 13, 2022 We begin back in the room with the large fire pit in the middle and the shrine of some sort near it. It appears to be some kind of sacrificial chamber. We hear some whimpering coming from a bag near the alter. There is a kobold in the bag. … Continue reading Stephen’s Notes Dec 13, 2022

In order to create my Accessible Mega-Dungeon with Roleplay as a focus and have it possible for Blind Game Masters to run it without any prep, I need the City it is set in to be Abandoned.

Dark Citadel S1 E3 Script and Link
https://anchor.fm/knightsofthebraille/episodes/Dark-Citadel-S1-E3-Your-Moms-Room-e1t2v6g Narrator: The hallway appears behind the alcove and it is illuminated with an eerie green glow. The light seems to wax and wane, as though it is the flickering flame of a torch. A drizzle of dust sifts from the rounded stone ceiling, like rain from a storm cloud, filling the air with swirls, … Continue reading Dark Citadel S1 E3 Script and Link
