I created a random table to quickly find shops to put into your games - either while you are preparing your session and need to flesh out a settlement, or during the game, to help you improvise a place. Here you go.

Another adventure idea for my upcoming book. It's going to be released on Sunday.

Haunted by voices and nightmares, a broken man’s sanity shatters as children disappear. The party must choose—save him, or save the lost.

Yet another adventure idea to add onto 'Prayers of the Shatterlands', which is coming out on October 26th.

When a citizen of World’s End begins acting strangely, the heroes uncover a sinister cult’s plan to infiltrate the city and must stop the Aftermarchers before chaos erupts.

I had the feeling, that my Patreon needed a bit more structure, so I decided to create a list with all of my content. Damn, this showed me how much I actually created already. That feels so good!

Just wanna promote my Patreon.

Hopefully useful content mainly for GMs: random tables, stuff to easily just drop into your games (like NPCs, Story Hooks, etc.) and more.

Weekly content and monthly projects like adventures or other supplementary stuff.

With my next bigger project being a setting guide, I thought I might add some adventure ideas to it.

From the depths of the Shattermaw, drider commanders and their spiders swarm the wastelands. Only by slaying the four driders can the Shatterlands be saved.

This week I created an NPC with the NPC Generator I made last week. Additionally I stuck to the random names table out of the 2024 Dungeon Master’s Guide and mixed the names up, as usual. Here is the result.

After receiving very positive feedback for the random tables with prompts for adventure ideas, I wondered why I didn't already put my ideas for NPCs into a random table.

Since I decided to stick to the random tables, I present my Travelling Encounters. It is pretty region agnostic, so you could put it in a coastal region, in snowy mountains or wherever your party is.
