Equipment is a pretty major element of traditional TTRPGs, and something we skipped with EIDOLON. What might equipment look like in a DftU game? Also, how should stats work in Threadspinner? What are the building blocks of a player character? Along the way we also talk a lot about Hollow Knight and Luke makes mortal enemies of everyone who likes classic Tolkein-inspired fantasy races.

Last time, we laid out some solid groundwork for how our exploration and map-making mechanics can work. But we need to provide more definition for what you actually do during this part of the game. What are the goals you're pursuing? Why are you exploring, beyond whatever intrinsic fun it might have?

One of our big ideas in trying to capture the vibe of FromSoft RPGs in a tabletop setting is to incorporate map-making mechanics, to look at games like The Quiet Year or Microscope and tie them direclty into more conventional RPG gameplay, so that you are creating a world as you explore it, in order to reproduce that feeling of cautiously feeling out a big, mysterious world full of tantalizing str...

Hello, everyone. Luke here, to unfortunately share some bad news. This is a very difficult announcement to make, and it’s something that I truly never thought I would have to come to you with. To rip the band-aid off right away: Fabby Garza is no longer a part of Eidolon Playtest, and the show is going on hiatus. This past Saturday night, June 28th, there was an exchange in our fan Discord in whic...

We continue to poke and prod at the foundations of various playbooks to get things in a strong enough position to start loading up the advanced moves! This month, we take another look at The Blight, as well as mulling some things over about The Grifter and The Sealed Evil!
