I've been playtesting some more of the homebrew paths meant for the @plotweaver.bsky.social , and its starting to have some really good results. Recently I've been working on a path called the Scaler, which is built for changing size because, lets be honest, who doesn't love kaiju fights.

By the way, while we're hoping to bring in former OGL creators, we welcome *all* indie creators! We're offering the Plotweaver system through an open SRD under a Creative Commons license (CC-BY 4.0). Being creator-friendly is our #1 goal!
THE TAPESTRY Under the Plotweaver OGL, anyone can create their own worlds and settings for this system. But in-house sourcebooks will take place in a shared universe. In this universe, every world is part of an endless Tapestry, each with its own stories to tell. And sometimes, those threads become tangled. Some Plotweavers adventure within a single world, often one affected by the touch of another. Others travel the Tapestry, saving the day when worlds collide! We'll launch with three worlds, codenamed Folio, Grimoire, and Codex. (Art shown here is by the legendary Jean-Giraud Moebiūs, and is not owned by Brotherwise Games.)
We expect most people using the Plotweaver system to use their own worlds and IP, but our in-house sourcebooks will be subtly connected in a meta-setting called the Tapestry.
Curious? Visit PlotweaverRPG.com to learn more about our first three worlds, codenamed Folio, Grimoire, and Codex.

Plotweaver evolves familiar d20 mechanics for a new generation of narrative-first roleplaying. For players, it offers flexibility, deep customization, and character-driven storytelling. For GMs, it supports any heroic action campaign …especially ones where worlds and genres collide! For designers, we’re building a truly open license, a supportive community, and a best-in-class ecosystem to monetize your creations.
Happy Friday! I'm lucky to be working on a lot of exciting projects right now, but the coolest one has to be Plotweaver.
The system powering the Cosmere RPG, Plotweaver is an awesome, flexible ruleset for a range of heroic roleplaying.
We want this to be the best system ever for OGL creators. 1/🧵

Plotweaver Grimoire Concept Art
In Plotweaver settings, worlds and realities collide! A land rich in magic is thrown out of balance when ancient technology begins to awaken. A galaxy-spanning autocracy mines the essence of other realities. Living stories step through liminal spaces and into the modern world.
🌟Our Raksasa flitting through the trees like an anime character
🌟The criminal giving into the curse on their gun
🌟The sorcerer gathering power for a big wallop
Reminder that it’s all experimental and things will change heavily in the years to come as we design, write, and playtest!
Oops! The bullet points from the Project Grimoire playtest didn't update. Here are the actual highlights from our internal playtest:
🌟Our detective using an enchanted lighter to search for nature spirits
🌟The imaginary friend reaching into a haunted wound to pull a ghost free
