Timeline & Map
Hello! I hope you had a great end to your year. I enjoyed my time off, but with the fourth Draw Steel Patreon playtest packet and a few more sessions under my belt, I'm teeming with ideas and ready to blog some more! I have a map of…
Taking the Holidays Off
Hey, everyone. I’m writing to let you know that I am taking the holidays off from posting. I’ll return with a new post on January 7th, but there will be a few changes! First, I’m moving the blog to a different platform, but that could change. You…

Ancestries of Skies of Mor-ladron
