This post I talk about the development challenges we’re facing, in broad strokes, and set up a basic framework for journal entries to come. Available to any tier Patreon supporter.
State of RPGWanderer – July 2023
Hey all! We were pretty quiet in June, so we’d like to share how things are going with the project, and to talk about what the future looks like for RPGWanderer, and Tides of Murkport.
Patreon Exclusive: ToM Chapter 1 Soundtrack & Wallpapers
We’ve released soundtrack and wallpaper downloads for Tides of Murkport’s first chapter to Grizzled Hero patrons! The download links available on the unlocked Patreon post.

Meet the Lutraxi – Homebrew Playable Race
Lutraxi are agile otterlike humanoids who favor bodies of water and damp terrain. Naturally curious and sanguine, they are fascinated by trinkets and baubles and fiercely loyal towards their companions. We’ve published a full dossier on the Grimoire with details, and background on this unique race from Tides of Murkport’s second chapter.
Feature Tutorial – Unit Reposition
Recently we added an additional tool to allow players to simulate features that may not be SRD compliant, or we just haven’t gotten to adding yet (think: Shove, Thunderwave, Repelling blast, etc.). Also it allows players to use warp-type abilities like Misty step. When repositioning, as opposed to moving, Attacks of Opportunity won’t be considered,…
Chapter 2 is Live!
We’re happy to announce that Chapter 2 of Tides of Murkport is now live and ready to play! A little bit late, but no worse for wear, last night we put live the newest chapter of Tides of Murkport. New monsters, new behaviours, combat engine improvements, new music, new artwork, the works! Chapter 2 lets…
Patreon Exclusive: OneD&D – Player’s Handbook playtest (#1 – Martials)
The OneDnD playtests have been underway for some time now and I’ve been keeping a close eye on the Unearthed Arcana. As a DM and player myself, I’m trying to decide whether I’ll be adopting OneD&D at my table. But most of all, as the game designer for RPGWanderer, I’ll eventually need to either advocate for a switch to this new ruleset, or recommend we stick to 5e / other competing systems. This series will be a deep dive into the playtest materials, past and future, and my reflections on how the proposed content measures up to 5e and whether it would be a good fit for RPGW or not.
Chapter 2 Development Delays
Hey adventurers, this is Aaron, head developer on the project. I wanted to check in to announce (after the fact, unfortunately) and give some details on the brief delay to releasing Chapter 2 to the site. First off, I want to apologize for getting this information out later than I should have. Both Alex and…
