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!
WITH JUSTIN ALEXANDER, PANAVIOTIS LINES, AND ALED LAWLOR
Today, we’ve got a four-way with Ben Riggs! Listen and marinate in the brilliance of Justin Alexander, Panayiotis Lines, & Aled Lawlor!
Aled Lawlor and Panayiotis Lines are the creative duo behind Leyline Press. In just a few short years, Leyline has carved out a reputation for distinctive, atmospheric RPGs that blend striking visual design with elegant, playable mechanics. This includes Salvage Union: Beautiful art, and delightfully mashes up mecha combat, exploration, and socialism. Aled and Panayiotis are reshaping what small-press tabletop games can look and feel like.
And then we’re thrilled to welcome a name familiar to just about every GM who’s ever looked for deeper insight into the craft, a man whose influence on the culture of TTRPGs is hard to overstate, the human responsible for the Alexandrian, Justin Alexander. His essays, reviews, and innovative techniques, such as like the “Three Clue Rule,” have become touchstones in modern RPG discourse. His book, So You Want to Be a Game Master, is absolutely outstanding and has been read by I think four different tweens in my classroom.
I’ve just released the first exclusive video for Alexandrite members of the Alexandrian Youtube channel.
This is an after action report from a session of my Mothership open table. I’m planning to do more of these in the future, offering a sneak peek into what’s going on at my gaming table in (almost) real time.
We’ll be unlocking even more exclusive video content when we hit 30 members!
Alexandrites on Youtube are helping to get my editors and other team members paid, which is what makes all the awesome video content we do over there possible! I’m super grateful to everyone who supports the Alexandrian — whether that’s as a Youtube member, a patron on Patreon, or buying one of my books. And my team also thanks you!
Later this month I’m going to be in Madison, WI for Gamehole Con!
