This is so beautiful

An Ashcan release of Realis, the TTRPG that I've been working on (and off and on) for the last four years is now available for preorder! thecalcutec.itch.io/realis

Hey there, yeah this was my fault! I just noticed yesterday that your package hadn’t gone out. I’m shipping out of my living room atm so I’m a bit more error prone than usual. I got your package into the post today tho and you should have tracking in your email. Thanks for your patience!
