I have an unhealthy obsession with The King In Yellow. The idea that a written work has the power to drive those who read it mad is terrifying. Robert W Chambers work is significant because now, thanks in part to HP Lovecraft, we see iterations of The King In Yellow everywhere. The madness is pervasive, like a force of nature moving slowly across the landscape of our collective consciousness.

In my opinion, the pinnacle of DMing a #PenAndPaper #TTRPG is when the game becomes so vivid that it bleeds into the players’ reality, like when one of my players dreamt of #TheYellowSign and #TheKingInYellow after a #CallOfCthulhu session or a player passed a location her character visited in #Kult and found herself feeling suspicious because of what had happened in the game! #MindsEye

3. #Dialect ! More on this later!
4. #UnknownArmies
5. #Cyberpunk2020
6. Liminal_ not to be confused with Liminal
7. #Dune
8. #StarWars Age of Rebellion!
9. #Warhammer #40k #DarkHeresy or #Deathwatch

Also, I like using too many # and !

But when #WerewolfTheApocalypse comes out… RRAAWWR

#callofcthulhu #ttrpg After #MasksOfNyarlathotep I wanted to explore the other highly mysterious entity of the #cthulhu #mythos namely #thekinginyellow often seen as an aspect of #hastur. I have been a bit obsessed with #theyellowsign and #carcosa and therefore I wanted to go back to the source for an epic campaign around Hastur. The core of the campaign is #TattersoftheKing but before that I nested #TellMeHaveYouSeenTheYellowSign? and #Tatterdemalion the seminal modules, one within the other.
