Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

Very vanilla here. Playing a 7 year long campaign of D&D 5e that just reached a huge bossfight. It's the culmination of an arc we started 2 years ago. Recently jumped into a Pathfinder first edition and have been digging a little more crunch (and jank).

I have been considering dipping my toe into GMing soon, probably in 5e since that is what I am most familiar with. Planning to run one of the starting modules just to familiarize myself with the concept of DMing.

Wow! Good luck with that boss fight! I enjoyed my time with 3/3.5e (essentially PF1) but I didn’t love it. GMing is great and I think everyone should try it at least once! 5E can be very challenging to GM so don’t worry about making mistakes (you will, we all do) just try to stay loose and have fun. The first two starter kit boxes have pretty good adventures in them. I’m not as much of a fan of the latest one but it is more linear so it might be better for a new GM.
