Last week we had our session zero and it went pretty well. Got the characters set up and briefly explained the overview of the world using the Welcome to Roshar book.

My crew is still fleshing out back stories this week and we will have session 1 on the 17th.

I have read through chapter 4 of the Stonewalkers adventure but started to reread chapter 1 to begin prep to run it. What are some GM tips for session prep for the Cosmere RPG and Stonewalkers?

Generally, for other RPGs, I like to read first time through and make highlights in the (PDF) then go back through and draft a rough outline of how I think the flow of events turns out.

I will be holding a session zero for Stonewalkers this evening. What advice would you give to kick this off for players who are not familiar with Stormlight or the Cosmere?

My wife and I are having a problem with a constant number of springtails getting into our kitchen and around the back door and kitchen table. They are all over the outside walls of our house. My wife runs a small cookie side business, and we don’t want them getting on the cookies. We’ve tried a dehumidifier to keep the area dry, and an exterminator told us to use strong essential oils on surfaces to repel them. Nothing seems to work. We are open to any suggestions. They are driving us crazy.

Summer road trips are starting soon, which makes it a great time to try Gridlock: The CarPG.

It’s a lightweight, travel-ready RPG designed for playing from the passenger seat. It features minimal setup, quick sessions, and mechanics tailored for road trips.

If you have family vacations, convention trips, or long drives planned this summer, this is the perfect game for them.

Optional dice-free mechanics
Fast character creation
Great for one-page dungeon crawls
Travel pamphlet format

Hello!
I am a volunteer GM and wanted to share that I will be running Ragnaborg sessions each day at GenCon with Lurking Fears!
Event registration is this weekend, so don’t miss your chance to try it out! I will be running the adventure Hunt Gone Awry.

“Four members of your Clan were taken during a hunt. Investigate their last known location and bring them home.”

To the full lobby of “Chill Dudes” tonight on Cryo. My team was struggling to get batteries for Vault 2, but you all came together and asked everyone to run the Compiler. It was the most fun I had in the game, having the full lobby come together naturally to attempt it. We may not have exfiled from running out of time, but we did manage to get the kill in. I don't think I will get that kind of camaraderie in a lobby again. Thanks for the good time Runners.

I'm a casual gamer dad around level 55. I mainly run Triage. I might get about 1-2 hours to play each night. My question is, what should a casual like me focus on before the wipe, and what should I prioritize more for the next season?
