👋 Hi, I’m Soren - the person behind Tabletop Master.
Here I share the journey of building a tool for GMs, the art we may feature, and the sounds I create along the way.
You’ll also find glimpses of my own TTRPG creativity and bits of personal life.
Thanks for being here, it means a lot.

I’d actually like to run a pirate campaign at some point, but I have no clue how to do it.

Do you usually work on multiple tracks at once, or focus on finishing one before starting the next?

Combat isn’t just combat in TTRPGs.
The music and ambience should fit the environment to create real immersion.

Validating they don't use AI in their piece whether it being illustrations or music.

The world will soon be split between real creatives and AI. My two cents.
No Gen AI in creative fields. Especially not #ttrpg

Part of building Tabletop Master isn’t just sounds and scenes.
It’s making sure artists get paid and attributed fairly.
Not flashy news, but important..

For those wondering if the molotov cocktail in D&D actually fit the era.
Recipe: flask of oil, a rag, and a flame source
The flask is clay: Easy find
Oil: Crude oil was practically used 1000´s of years ago.
Rag: Easy
Flamable source: Check

Planning a D&D session is tough.
Planning one for a table of neurodivergent players?
That’s a whole other level, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

From experience I’ll never run a campaign with 8 players again.
6 is my max (with one occasional guest), and 5 is the sweet spot.

TTRPG Question of the Day
What's the most amount of players you have had at the table at one time?
I've asked what the ideal number of players is before, but now I'm talking max capacity. At what number do you think it starts negatively impacting the game? Is this number different for GMing?
