Black-and-white illustrated scene of two people meeting in a park. A woman in a stylish suit with braided hair stands on the left, looking sceptically at a man on the right as she hands him a document in a plain envelope. Behind them, blurred figures walk among bare trees and concrete steps. Text overlays the bottom half of the image: “THE AGENCY: SELF-CHECKOUT” in bold, with “Coming Soon” handwritten in red beneath.
Side-by-side with my work on the Monad Edition, The Kraken's call means that a certain Self-Checkout will be seeing playtesting and write-up.
One of the playtest groups credited in For A Rainy Day will get to face unexpected developments in Episode 2.

Spread layout for Chapter 0: Introduction. The left side contains text explaining the premise of The Dee Sanction, a game about occult threats, fragile loyalty, and heretics condemned to secret service under Queen Elizabeth I. The right side features a detailed black-and-white illustration of Elizabethan figures: a stern noblewoman holding a book and dagger, flanked by eerie companions with skeletal or masked faces, elaborate clothing, and ornate backgrounds resembling stained-glass windows. The imagery blends courtly Tudor fashion with unsettling supernatural elements.
Oh, and I updated the Introduction spread from the other day, which I'd pictured with a woodcut, but then remembered I had something much more eye-catching for one of the first images in the book.

Full-spread layout featuring the heading “Chapter 5: Sanction Protocols” on the left, with introductory text about the structures and personnel of The Dee Sanction. On the right is a black-and-white illustration of Doctor John Dee, in Elizabethan attire, holding a book and gesturing toward a small tripod table draped in cloth and topped with his shew stone—an obsidian mirror—in a winged golden frame.
I've still got some packing to get done and then off to sleep for an early start—off to that London and the ExCel to set up for Saturday's Dragonmeet.
In a quiet moment (HA!), I've done a little more work messing around with the break-up/down of the Monad Edition content.

There's a positive aspect to the six monthly dental appointment—crossing the road to the Oxfam to check out the books.
Score! A couple of Wallanders that I hadn't picked up yet, plus Old Manchester Tales, with this delightfully titles final chapter.

My money is on the School of Night being behind it. Desperate times, desperate measures... If they can pin some fragment of the plot on Dee and his minions, all the better to bring the old man down.

El viernes sacrificamos la franja de la mañana porque el pepes no nos hizo bien. A la tarde nos tocó a los dos #TheDeeSanction un juego que tenía ganas de probar. La premisa me mola y me trasmitió un poco de lo que esperaba que me transmitiera trophy. (Don't @ me)
#TTRPG hiatus begins, filling in the gaps in gaming with some family holidays and RPG writing & blogging.

Currently reading ‘Sacrilege’ - the third in the ‘Giordano Bruno’ series by SJ Parris. Both Walsingham and Dee feature as recurring characters. Hope this will stand me in good stead whenever I get round to running #thedeesanction at some point.
I decided to back the Monad Edition of #thedeesanction It's been hovering on the periphery of my consciousness for some time now, and I have finally succumbed to Walsingham's seductive gaze. It looks fantastic, it's sparking my imagination, and I can't wait to read it. Late Pledges still open on KS!
This week, my discussion with Jim on The Raspy Raven led me to think about structuring your Dee Sanction adventures. There's no right way to do it, but this week's Substack explores one in depth: the 5-Room Dungeon.

With this playmat adorning my tabletop I may never be able to focus on doing anything ever again.
Thanks to @melissared.bsky.social for the art and @allrolledup.bsky.social for the print.
This is just my rough first print for adjustment and pondering logo placement (or not).

I had a lot of fun during this inaugural Raspy Raven podcast and I think I made a lot of sense — more than I'd expected.
We discuss turning stories into adventures, structures for writing, keeping concise, media for reference, historical accuracy (or not), top tips, and more.

Here's more of this brilliant interpretation of Glindoni's Experiment before Queen Elizabeth by Melissa
@melissared.bsky.social as promised. You will note it has the skull circle excised from the original.

I promised I would post a little more of the #TheDeeSanction Court Experiment image, but I've got the final version incoming, and I didn't want to zoom out until I had that.
I'm excited. It's a stunning image with brilliant detail, and I look forward to having it as a neoprene mat for my workspace.
Melissa @melissared.bsky.social has just sent me an update on the new painting for The Dee Sanction, and I'm so excited, impressed, overwhelmed, intrigued, and... did I say excited already?
Just a taster...

9/ Each scenario thrusts Agents into harrowing encounters: will you mend the tear or unleash gods, Fae, and spirits on an unprepared world? These entities might be connected to a mortal, but the mortal's actions have tugged on or broken a thread and made the Unravelling worse.

A stern Renaissance‐style portrait of a gentleman wearing a thumb-ring on a cord around his neck, overlaid with bold text: ‘MISSED IT? Maybe that damned thumb-ring wasn’t the reminder you’d hoped. LATE PLEDGES — now open! The Dee Sanction: Monad Edition. thedeesanction.com.’
Fashionably late? More like fate-fully right—reserve your copy of The Dee Sanction: Monad Edition with a pledge now.
(Without needing one of those irritating, awkward thumb-ring reminder things!)

A "Work in Progress" promotional image featuring fifteen tabletop RPG titles in a 5x3 grid. The projects include books for games like Cthulhu Hack, The Dee Sanction, and Sanction, with diverse cover art ranging from cosmic horror to noir and science fiction. Titles include "Brighter the Light," "Thanksgiving," "PNG: Parity Not Guaranteed," ".ZIP: Zombie Incursion Protocols," "QKSLVA," "Ship of Fools," "Agency: Self-Checkout," "Tales in the Fold," "Divided Horizons," "Cork Bord," and "Escape the Haunter." The top-left book features a red cover with a black symbol.
I'm just going to leave this here (or thereabouts) to remind myself that there are simply insufficient hours in the day, week, month, and year—or, possibly, the decade.
And I realise that this is not everything.
