Word Toolbox

Role-playing games are close cousins to the oldest form of human entertainment: story telling. Words empower stories. The next time you run a session, review the Word Toolbox for just one minute before playing. This simple act will make you a better guide.

Current Project

What: A pirate-themed fantasy RPG. Taking cues from Cairn, it will emphasize featherweight rules, fast PC creation, and quick combat. I want this to be an RPG that that you can begin playing within minutes of sitting down for players and guides alike.Plan: The core rules will be offered free as a PDF on this site. Like Carin 1.0, a book will also be offered through Lulu and Amazon POD options. Compared to the core rules, the printed book will include world-building and adventure tables enabling guides to run missions cold. Print on demand will probably include a choice between high quality and affordable price.Current Stage: Core design and layout are done. Adventure tables are done. Some playtesting has been done.Do you want to help? Playtesting continues. If interested, reach out by the Contact Tom button or go to the Discord and drop me a note.Thank you to current test players: Jeff, Ron, Mike, Heather.
