The Helix Initiative was introduced to the public as a revolutionary leap in environmental adaptation, biological medicine, and survival science. Officially, the organization claimed it was developing new ways for humanity to survive ecological collapse, disease, and resource shortages. Behind closed doors, however, Helix operated hidden research divisions dedicated to experimentation far beyond legal or ethical limits. Somewhere deep within those divisions, a scientist identified in surviving records only as Dr. W██d████ T████ developed a machine capable of shrinking living organisms to less than an inch tall. The technology was presented internally as a breakthrough in resource efficiency and medical research—but many of the subjects brought into testing were children between the ages of eight and sixteen. Most never returned. You are one of the survivors. After undergoing the procedure, you awaken inside an ordinary city park that has become an impossible wilderness at your scale. Blades of grass tower like trees. Puddles become lakes capable of drowning entire groups. Ants patrol the dirt like armored soldiers, while spiders transform sections of the park into web-choked death zones. Every inch of terrain matters. Every storm is catastrophic. Survival depends on learning how to weaponize the environment itself—crafting tools and defenses from thorns, sap, insect shells, broken plastic, roots, and scavenged debris left behind by previous miniature civilizations that clearly did not survive for long. As you explore deeper into the park, you begin discovering abandoned outposts, collapsed shelters, and fragmented Helix logs detailing increasingly unstable experiments. The records reference attempts to create “evolutions chosen suvivors” capable of evolving beyond normal biological limits. Again and again, one phrase appears alongside heavily censored personnel files: MARROW SYNDROME. The disease slowly destroys the body in stages—first decaying bone tissue, then muscle structure, and finally flooding the lungs with blood. Somewhere among the corrupted files are hints that Dr. W██d████ T████ never joined Helix out of loyalty. Some logs imply he infiltrated the organization to expose its corruption, free the surviving test subjects, and continue researching a cure for a terminally ill child connected to the syndrome. Whether those rumors are true remains uncertain. Helix officially denies the existence of both the disease and the scientist. Not every strange thing in the park comes from Helix laboratories. Survivors occasionally encounter a bizarre figure known only as Rock—a hyper-muscular talking bee obsessed with shouting “MUSCLE” at every possible opportunity. Most groups dismiss him as insane until they realize he understands far more about the park than he should. One moment he acts like a reckless coach forcing terrified children to become stronger, and the next he casually references erased facilities, failed experiments, or “previous attempts” that nobody else remembers. Near the edges of abandoned Helix sectors, Rock sometimes becomes unusually quiet, staring into empty space before muttering warnings that sound less like jokes and more like genuine fear. HE IS WATCHING YOUR EVERY MOVE...

Hello! Hope you're all doing well. I'm a newish GM looking to run the DnD module "Dragons of Stormwreck Isle" with 3-4 brave adventurers! The sessions will take place on Sundays at either 3pm or 4pm EST / 7pm or 8pm GMT I'm queer so definitely expect a queer friendly environment and vibe. I want everyone to feel comfortable being themselves and having a good time I'm 29 so preferably I'd like to play with folks around my age group. so 21 and up please and we're going to run the sessions via Discord calls and using Roll20 as the VTT. If that sounds interesting to you, please fill out this form and I'll reach out to you soon! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfIYP3i8ud5OJl8a9omMnEZYt84Z-h5Dn07n7gPZmblwhK0kQ/viewform

I'm a game designer, and I'm looking for a group of great players to help me playtest the crap out of it. Anyone willing to playtest will get a free digital copy of Prosperon on the house. I was thinking of running sessions every other week on Saturdays, since I already run a podcast campaign weekly. If you're interested, sign up and let’s have a blast. To give you an idea of the gameplay style, it’s about 65% roleplay and 35% combat, though that really depends on the group’s dynamics. If you all want more combat, I can absolutely make that happen. The game is a cyberpunk/biopunk mix set in a dystopian society on a distant planet far from Earth. Humanity colonized a world called Khaelmora, later renamed Prosperon by the human settlers. If you're interested, let’s get those dice rolling and have a good time.

TALES From the Loom is a system I've been working on for a few years. The setting is high fantasy with some sci-fi elements sprinkled in. I run free playtesting sessions for groups ranging from 2-6 players, typically for 2-3 hours. The game is pretty quick to learn, promise! Sessions are first come first serve and generally scheduled 1 week ahead of time. Joining the campaign here will let me know you'd like in and I'll send you a DM with some more information! If you enjoy games like: Ironsworn, D&D, Mausritter, Daggerheart or Dragonbane, you may find TFTL compelling! Hope to see you at the table soon! Heres a brief explanation of the core of the system and how it functions: Every roll in TALES is made with a dice pool of D6’s, the number of dice in the pool is noted by the number before the letter “D” e.g., 3D=3d6 You'll roll a pool of dice equal to a skill, and count how many dice show a 4 or higher in most cases. Disadvantage and advantage are represented by lowering or raising the number that counts as a success, either 3 ups or 5 ups. This is heroic fantasy, there's magic, capable heros and in general, good triumphs over evil. Though I will caveat this by saying tftl is much more lethal than other heroic fantasy games, most starting characters have about 2-5 Wounds (hit points or health) and in general most basic attacks inflict 1 Wound, when things go wrong in a fight, they go wrong very fast, for either party, what decides who lives and who doesnt is the dice and your own buy in to the fiction. TFTL rewards player engagment and invenstment in their characters inner life, there are a few systems that support this: -The narrative bonus is a +1 dice to +3 dice bonus that the GM awards you for engaging with the fiction, using clever tactics, and roleplaying your character honestly. You get it by describing actions, using your  characters personality, and backstory in roleplay, and through situational advantages like having the high ground. The reflections system is a journaling mechanic that rewards players for putting themselves in their characters head. After a session, during downtime in game, or whenever the urge arises, you roll on a prompt table and answer the prompt from your characters perspective. Then once you show the GM you get a +1 Dice bonus to any roll outside of combat in the next session. Exploration is a two sided mechanic, first you gather "discovery threads" in town, gathering rumors, studying old texts and maps or bribing locals for information about your current area. When your party ventures into unknown wilds, you can spend your gathered threads to make finding landmarks and mysteries easier, and the best part? You can level up by engaging with this mechanic, without ever drawing a blade or casting a spell. Theres a reputation system, crafting, lightning fast gridless combat, and more to explore within TALES From the Loom! So I hope you'll sign on for a free game, and come tell a tale or two at my table.
