Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

Had a cool idea for a mountain with hermits on it that get struck by lightning in order to cast it as a spell but I'm not sure how to build a setting around that idea.

I don’t have a direct resource but, Motive is important. Why would they do that? They’re hermits so I assume they don’t interact with each other much.

Maybe they’ve become drunk on power. They’re addicted to it. There’s something special about the mountain that allows them to do this and it attracts people that have some void to fill to it. Add in conflict. A nearby village has issues with them causing forest fires.
