the second game i ran this weekend was Thieves of the Tome by @dairykillsme.bsky.social ! i love the concept so much and it delivers on exactly what it promises, the taking of the actual books and making spells from them is structured super well and the gm prep tools were exactly enough

i really like this spinning dice that’s a d2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,20,100 and works by you stopping it with a finger and reading the closest number to the left side of the tip of finger (so in the video that would be a result of a 1)
