Back in the Swing of Things (Patreon)

Hello patrons!

Between finishing up the Deck of Possibilities™, and then running into numerous difficulties with it, it’s been a while since we’ve had our usual GM Workshops and Sunday lessons on Discord. That’s changing in March.

All event dates and times can be found on our Discord server, under the "Event" panel.

GM Workshops will be returning March 4th, at 12pm US Central, and they’ll take place every other Saturday from then on. These workshops are exclusive to GM-tier patrons and above. They’re a time to vibe with your fellow patrons and the Velvet Fang devs, do some work, and get feedback on what you’ve.

These workshops are not only a great time to get going on your own material, but they’re great to ask questions and get advice from experienced TTRPG designers and developers. Our goal as teachers is never to tell you what to do, but rather to arm you with knowledge so you can make the best decisions for your creations.

You'll hear us say it a thousand times: Game design is an art, not a science!

Sunday lessons will be returning, though not quite in the same form as before. They’ll take place at 12pm US Central, starting March 5th and then every other Sunday thereafter. Our focus for these lessons will be to make TTRPG content live, explaining our process, delving into design practices, and answering questions as we go.

We’re starting out with a focus on monster design. If there’s a particular monster you’d like to see made, you can submit that idea here. Every other Sunday we’ll pick a submission and make it, then post the stat block publicly on Patreon for everyone to have and use.

March will also see the return of our D&Destiny MMO campaign, New Light, hosted through Discord. This campaign takes places in the early days of vanilla Destiny 1, before any DLC. Being an MMO campaign, it's one universe occupied by everyone's characters (over 50 characters so far!), but everyone is free to explore in their own direction and pursue their own goals. What one player group does could have an effect on another player group they’ve never met before, or vice-versa.

No previous experience is required to join the campaign, and you don’t need to be a patron either. Patrons get access to downtime activities, the roleplay channels, and early sign-ups for sessions, but anyone is welcome to make a character, play in sessions, earn loot, and contribute to the unfolding story.

New Player Seminars are on the first Wednesday of every month, at 12pm US Central. We’ll help you make your first character and get you started.

If you can’t make it to a seminar, text chat help can provided at any time. We also have a handy Server Event Guide that goes over everything, too.

As for the Deck of Possibilities™, we're in the last editing phase of everything and will have an update on that soon. 

THANK YOU for your support! ♥💖♥
