Alright, so guess I should do this 1K thing as it's pretty cool. First up I just want to say thanks to my good friend Fernando Dominguez who does all of the illustration work for AB.
I do the designs, but he brings them to life with his beautiful art. Also amazing moral support
There's definitely far too many people to say thank you to to make an exhaustive list and I would feel like a jerk for excluding people that helped a lot.
Instead I'll just say that if you've supported us with follows, engagement, or using our products, thank you.
I didn't expect to grow this project so quickly and we're still just kind of gearing up. Hopefully that means that once we hit our stride, we'll have even more great stuff for you all to enjoy. I'm surprised at how quickly people have embraced us, but this community is so good.
This doesn't change much for us. We're still going to keep making stuff we love and sharing it with all of you. I'm still going to keep posting memes and tips and writing articles.
What it does change though is that we know there's people that do care about this stuff.
That's kind of an amazing feeling. OH also, we're definitely going to turn around and keep supporting those on the climb that we believe in.
There's so many of you making amazing products that I just want to lift into the air over a crowd and go LOOK AT THIS STUFF!
So, I'm definitely going to continue doing that. No changes there whatsoever. @n_quests Had a great thread the other day about lifting up other creators on this platform and I am fully on board with boosting the projects I love and believe in.
I'm not far enough along in my journey to really have great advice to give. My pattern has been to engage often, do so earnestly, and be kind because everyone can just use some positivity.
I'll probably run an AMA shortly if anyone is into that sort of thing. Thanks all. ❤️
ALRIGHT it's #FF and for these, I do blurbs for people. Little descriptions about them and why you should follow imo.
These take a lot of time and I'm forgetful so if I don't mention you, I'm sorry. I still love you and what you're working on. I also rotate this regularly.
@chelslarsonart Chelsea is an amazing character artist and a wonderful friend. She makes some really cool stuff and love having her around.
@FatMagicRPG A food centric campaign setting that is dripping with flavor KS is live now.
@CataleyaVi Amazing artist and great memes. Also my partnered cheerleader at times!
A lot of ink has been spilled about Adversarial DMing in #DnD or any #ttrpg, the concept of DM vs Player, and I don't want to retread those arguments. I'm vehemently against the practice, but I think we can learn something from it at the same time. Thread Inc. 1/7
My biggest motto is to be a fan of the players. This means that I should share in their triumphs and feel for their downfalls. I should be with them through it all and be their lens into the world. I should give them relevant info and help them understand what's around them. 2/7
I take this job at the table seriously. If you were to play with me, you would see me celebrate their crits and feel genuine remorse for a lost ally. This instills a mutual trust with the players. Adversarial DMing at the table favors acting as a harsh or direct opposition. 3/7
