kill the dream little bird...

my new #ttrpg supplement for songbirds 3e has just released! play as "robins" - psychic adventurers, dream wanderers, and fervent believers in the Last Frequency

kill the dungeons. kill the dream.

robins has its own set of google sheets, a 44 page long document, and high compatibility with the songbirds dungeon map (which I also created, what a coincidence)! get it today!

robins is a tabletop-roleplaying game set in a post apocalyptic city rife with weird psychic magic and long decayed technology.

you play as robins – a nomadic band of psychics who follow the call of The Last Frequency, a reality outside the city that promises something more than the continuation of the dead God's dream.

the city, however, is not willing to die without a fight – and neither did Albion, the God of this realm who died long ago. his dreams still litter the landscape in the form of "dungeons." within these cramped nightmares are dream logic monsters, bizarre traps, and strange rooms with stranger secrets...

however, this is a supplement to songbirds 3e – meaning that most of the rules are the same. however, a lot has been added to create a real sense of place.

for example, ten new classes! play as:

• the wintersbloom, thief of Albion's tongue
• the greenhorne, lover to decay
• the holyholy, a hyper-polyamourous poet
• the twistbone, a gender euphoric satyr

and more!

in addition, I've added an entire new bestiary, supplementary materials for combat, new summons, and new freelancers to fill out your party!

I am trapped in the Dark Place.

My name is Alan Wake. I am trapped in the Dark Place.

me: Oh god, what now? I'm supposed to be at jury duty in an hour. I don't have time for a sadistic puzzle room
jigsaw: My bad. I didn't know. Here, I'll come let you out
me: Thanks bud

jigsaw: I think we both know why you're here
me: Because I lied about having jury duty?
jigsaw: Because you lied about having jury duty

ShortBox Comics Fair runs once a year for all of October, entirely digitally, and frequently has some of the most interesting comics I get to read each year. I haven't even finished reading everything I bought, but because we're almost at the end of the month, I wanted to take a moment to plug the ones that I thought were especially good.
