Deathbringer is a brutal new tabletop RPG from Professor DM and Roll For Combat, crowned EN World’s Most Anticipated TTRPG of 2026. Fully compatible with Shadowdark and built to drop into any OSR system, Deathbringer delivers fast, savage combat where death isn’t the end — it’s part of the journey.
I’ve been looking forward to Deathbringer for a long time now, and so I was absolutely thrilled when Dan invited me to join the party! I’ll be writing an adventure for Deathbringer!
In fact, Professor Dungeon Master has summoned a dark conclave of amazing adventure writers:
Kelsey Dionne, creator of Shadowdark and winner of the 2024 ENNIE Awards, including Product of the Year, Best Game, Best Layout & Design, and Best Rules
Justin Alexander, author of the USA TODAY Bestseller So You Want to Be a Game Master? and 2024 ENnie Gold Award Winner
Luke Stratton, creator of Pirate Borg
Brandon Gillam, founder of RPG publishing imprint RUNEHAMMER
Daniel Fox, creator of ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG
Ben Milton, from Questing Beast, creator of Knave and Maze Rats
Baron DeRopp, Dungeon Masterpiece
Luke Hart, The DM Lair
Discourse Minis, Dungeons & Discourse
David McFarland, DM Scotty
William Tanner Schroeder, Paladin Prose
Grace “World Destroyer” Mason (the title is earned)
Bob World Builder
It’s an incredible honor to be invited to join these creators!
Combat is fast. Victories are earned. Death is real.
I’m also releasing another video tonight: An unboxing video for The Crooked Moon, which you can find over on my Patreon!
You don’t need to be a member to watch this one, but I’ve decided not to release this unboxing video on Youtube because our previous unboxing videos have performed very poorly and they seem to torpedo the algorithm.
But I did want to spread the word about The Crooked Moon, which I think looks really, really cool. Unboxing this one got me very excited to dive deeper! So we’re going to see how hosting videos on Patreon works out.
At Green Dragon Fest, you’ll escape the chaos of a typical convention’s swarms of attendees and immerse yourself in a fantasy village where you game with top YouTube dungeon masters, feast family-style, and forge a tight-knit gaming tribe. Over two action-packed days, play four one-shot sessions a premium venue, learn from legends, and connect with passionate TTRPG fans.
Don’t settle for mediocre games and fleeting encounters. Join us April 30th-May 3rd, at Ancient Lore Village for an unforgettable adventure that’s as much about community as it is about rolling the dice.
I’m thrilled to have been invited back to GM again this year at Green Dragon Fest in Knoxville, TN! This is one of my favorite events to attend! The people, the games, the location, the food! All just make for an incredible experience.
If you’re looking for something a little more exclusive and intimate than a regular con, this might be the event for you.
The other GMs who have been invited to run games this year include:
Baron de Ropp (Dungeon Masterpiece)
Professor Dungeon Master
Bob World Builder
Kelsey Dionne (The Arcane Library)
Dungeon Dad
Grace World Destroyer
Faye Morel (Mendarii)
This year also includes very special guest David Wesely. Before there was D&D, there was Dave Arneson’s Blackmoor. Before Blackmoor, there was David Wesely’s Braunstein, which David will be running at Green Dragon Fest! Check out the full list at Meet Your Game Masters.
On this episode Miskatonic University Podcast, Keepers Dave & Bridgett interview Justin Alexander on the Three Clue Rule and designing mysteries in gaming!
