She is just *funny*. It's so nice to just have something campy and aggressively *not serious* to listen to.

Eidrosa is my Daggerheart world where a throwaway joke turned into culture-weaponized pulp: smut as vehicle, laughter as engine, tyrants as potholes. Learn more about the world and our campaign on my substack: open.substack.com/pub/drjedish... #Daggerheart #Eidrosa #TTRPG
Welcome to Eidrosa
Nine gods, one wound, and a table that repairs.

And it only happened because the table kept saying yes. Yes to tiny pieces of character flavor, yes to homebrew orders, classes, and gods, yes to a smutty paperback as the spark that turns a crowd. The story first frame let a throwaway line become full-scale rebellion.

All of this lives in Eidrosa, our homebrewed setting inside this system. Silent Sisters and the Temple of Threshold. Marrowmother and Musecaller. Fabletouched on the roads. Mercybinder vows in the bones.

It's not the salaciousness that makes it work. It is a mirror. Redhaven sees itself in the fiction. Bakers, porters, scribes, street kids. Everyone gets to be a hot, horny hero dunking on Axis. The old recruiting stronghold becomes the epicenter of Axis ridicule.
August 28, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Planned property defacement comes next. A mural in the town square with birds carrying city sigils, chains breaking, and the dare “Can love alone topple an empire.” A workwall tagged “Redhaven is Rising.” Axis barracks rechristened in giant letters that spell out “Tiny Dick HQ.”

They hand copy twelve and seed them at first light through Redhaven’s markets. Bread stalls. Laundry lines. Gossip lanes. Sex may sell but its the humor that holds fast.

The party grabs onto it with both hands, spending a full night drafting Chains of the Rouge Keep: An Oath Most Naughty. Pulp with resistance tactics threaded into the plot. Symbols of rebellion drawn into the gratuitous cover art.
August 28, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Here's where the match finds gasoline, though. That laugh is the same energy that worked in Hollowford and Dayburn. Every time the novel praises an axe’s heft, the room snorts. And the idea of using smut as vehicle for rebel propaganda and instruction is born.

It becomes a group bonding activity as Grey reads it aloud in the first meeting of the party's Smut After Sunset book club. Terrible metaphors. Excellent kissing. Everyone wheezing with laughter in the half dark.
August 28, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Liberated cities lead Teren to discovering a single raunchy paperback that he places in Grey’s hands. Oath of Ecstasy by the prolific Roderick Stormmane. Gloriously smutty pulp that is hilarious with it's convoluted euphemisms and thinness of plot.
August 28, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Then Dayburn. No pumpkins here, but the burning of a larger than life Axis soldier effigy with a teeny tiny member. Laughter again becoming the precursor to uprising.
