The Friday Grab Bag - Lloyd Metcalf, SimonTodd, & the RPG Creators Relief Fund

There are some fine independent artists working in the RPG field these days and one of the many bright spots is Lloyd Metcalf.  Learn about his background and check out his artwork here.

Another artist that also bears mentioning is Simon Todd.  He's got an Etsy store with some wonderful pieces you can check out here.

In their own words, "The Roleplaying Game Creators Relief Fund (RCRF) is a charitable organization founded to provide financial assistance to tabletop roleplaying game creators suffering hardship due to medical emergencies, natural disasters, and other catastrophic situations."  You can join in the support here.

And The Tome Show recently did a show featuring "Hal Greenberg, Steven Long, and Rachel Ventura, who are all on the board of RPG Creator's Relief Fund. They discuss this new charity which sells RPG bundles and uses the money to support freelance game designers and artists who have suffered a sudden tragedy. This podcast was recorded on November 16, 2014."  Learn more here.

March Fo(u)rth for GM's Day!

And so, once again, another year has passed and it is time to give thanks to our many GMs who run such fun games for us.  Bring some extra snacks or beverages, perhaps pick them up a little gift, but at the very least, let them know you appreciate all they do with a well-earned "Thank you!"

In honor of the occasion, Creative Mountain Games is holding its annual GM's Day sale and you can check out what is on offer here!

Star Trek Enterprise Inspired Designs

If someone is looking for a little more Star Trek in their life (And who wouldn't be?), then they can pick themselves up a very nice set of kitchen accessories on Amazon.com in the form of a pizza cutter, bottle opener, and even a corkscrew here (disembodied hand not included)!

One might also look toward Paul Michael Design (Facebook page here!) if one was in the market for a ring . . .
