The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

Black and white photo of a black medium haired cat lying on grass, looking up at the camera. It looks like it has pure white eyes with no pupils but it’s overwhelmingly likely that it's just light blow out from overexposure.

Mock Cover Jam III - The Return A game jam from 2026-04-03 to 2026-05-31 hosted by Taiga Runnel. It's been a while since the last one of these, huh? 4-5 years ago, I hosted two game jams with a simple premise - I provide some evocat...

I'm hosting a ttrpg jam! The premise is that you either choose a cover and design an analogue game inspired by it, or design a cover for others to use. There's still over a month left to make your game and several unclaimed covers! itch.io/jam/mock-cov...

I'm opening up commissions to earn some extra money. If you're a ttrpg designer or other creative interested in my services, reach out via bsky or witchbreak.rpg@gmail.com and we can work out the details! Some example designs in the thread #ttrpg

Tempo
The world moves to an unheard melody. Tempo is a trait that sets the pace of the game. The higher the Tempo, the more danger you’re likely to incur. Tempo is divided into three tiers – Adagio (slow), Moderato (moderate), and Allegro (fast). The MC may up the tempo as a risky consequence, and players can bring it back down again by utilising a Set-up Action.

At the start of every match and errand, start a repeating 4-tick Tempo clock. Whenever a character rolls a 1 on an Action Roll, add one tick to the clock – this includes all dice rolled, not just the highest.

When the clock fills, the MC takes one Tempo token. This token may be spent to inflict a consequence at any time. The severity of the consequence depends on the level the Tempo was at when the token was earned. As such, Tempo tokens come in three varieties: Adagio tokens, Moderato tokens, and Allegro tokens. 

Adagio tokens can be spent to inflict a controlled consequence, Moderato tokens to inflict a risky consequence, and Allegro tokens to inflict a desperate consequence. Two tokens of a type may be discarded to take one token of a tier higher.

A painting of Lucifer tempting Jesus in the desert. Lucifer is INCREDIBLY naked, dirty, and lurid, rubbing up ons Jesus' robes from behind; his hand is open in offering and is placed in front of Jesus' crotch

I just re-found this painting, which was in a kid's bible I had growing up. I used to obssess over it, and I'm pretty sure seeing Lucifer here was the first time I thought a man was attractive? Over the years I'd think "it couldn't possibly be as horny as I remember it", but I mean come ON

Gonna allow myself a moment to be candid but most of the ttrpg projects I've put out there have less than 10 sales. The only remotely successful projects have been Greater Secrets and 106th Astir Squadron. Which like... Is cool! But I think August and I do some banger design on other stuff to!
