The players play one of their descendants, a nameless minotaur torn between their unjust slave existence in a decadent metropolis civilization and an eerie, perilous jungle. Their world "will find its future" in their doings. The Clay That Woke is a roleplaying game set in a richly-imagined world, with immersive character play guided by an inspiring, unique, token-based oracle.

A low powered urban fantasy game. The world of the Cursed is the same as our world, the streets are the same, the stores are the same, it's the characters that are different. They were normal once, then they received "the gift." The gift is the ability to sense beyond the normal, into the realm of the supernatural. Some can see the world of spirits, others escaped the other world, while some spent years learning to control and alter the natural laws.

For a long time, our monstrous home was occupied by invading humans. Now, finally, we’ve driven them off, and we’re left with this: a year of relative peace. One quiet year, with which to dismantle their settlements and reclaim our lands. Come Winter, a band of heroes will arrive and we might not survive the encounter. This is when the game will end. But we don’t know about that yet. |

A very simple (rules-lite) horror RPG created for a Halloween-themed RPG bash in 2017. It evokes a monolithic force of darkness which ebbs, swells, and opposes the player characters.

A game of competitive boasting, based on the exploits of the titular C18th adventurer and raconteur. Players portray nobles and challenge each other to recount an extraordinary story from their past. Dice and pencils are replaced by money and fine wine, a simple bidding system allows for interruptions and rebuttals, and it all wraps up in under an hour. The rulebook was ostensibly written by the Baron himself, with his unique and charming style. |
