First in the new round of Playtest characters for my TTRPG, Hero's Calling. Æthelwynn, the forgotten queen. Backstory feels good, but I'm still working on the mechanical stuff. (Sadly, it's not ready for testing, but I love your enthusiasm 😁) More to come!

And that's the General Science MTEL down. Just one more to go... then possible retakes. nbd

Second Playtest character! Unlike Æthelwynn, Del has been kicking around my head for nearly a year. Hero's Calling as a concept for going on 3 years at this point. Anyway, here's Del with his playtest backstory.

Another character who has been kicking around my head for a while, just waiting to start their adventure.

This character is the oldest conceptually, having been an original playtest character from over a year and a half ago. Of course, they never got tested 😅

Another original playtest character from long ago. Think Lara Croft but without the guns and money. Oh, and she's a 7 foot anthropomorphic raptor.

We are gonna call that a successful first week of school. Even though it was only 1 day with students. Preparation counts

I mean, that's a steal.

Super satisfying

Oh boy! It's Dnd night!

Passed my History MTEL!

220.2 Starting the craziest phase of my life so far.

I survived. 5am to 11pm booked but I made it. It felt great, but I am physically and mentally exhausted. Guess I'll do it again in 2 weeks 🤪

My grad school class on using science fiction stories and emerging technologies, a.k.a. AI, in the classroom, is one of my favorite classes I've ever taken.

Story of Your Life by Ted Chaing... Real mind bender. I'm sleeping with a nightlight for when I wake up with existential dread 😅

DnD night!

DnD NIGHT!

Divine Intervention worked?!?!?!

Well, it's safe to say I bit off a bit more than I could chew this autumn.

Dnd night!
