Hi everyone! This month my indie TTRPG is on sale for just $1! The Magical Land of Yeld is a game about children from our world who discover a secret door to a magical land, but get trapped there! They have to find a way to escape before they turn 13 and become monsters! The game is written by myself and my brother Nick Smith, with hundreds of illustrations and comics drawn by me. If you're looking for a new TTRPG, please try Yeld. I think you'll like it! Buy the PDF at www.drivethrurpg.com/product/2565...

If you like original art you might want to check out the Modest Medusa store today. I’ve had some unexpected expenses this Spring so I’ve decided to offer some original art I’ve been holding onto. This includes the original art for Modest Medusa strips 3-12, as well as some more recent pieces. So if you’re interested in the very oldest Modest Medusa strips, check out this sale. These includes the first full appearance of Modest and Marah, the first time Modest speaks, her first Chocodile and more! I’ve signed each strip and added a small character sketch along the bottom! You can see the full sale here.

just curious... since madusa has a lower half of a snake... how does she pooped? like I'm confused... like you show if her snakes hairs eat... it goes into her stomach... same when she eat obviously it goes to her stomach as well... but then how does she pooped... and WHERE does she pooped? like if she thinks the TOILET is her bed or whatever... what place does she consider a bathroom? like... is she potty trained or outdoor trained...?? I'm so confused... like it never gets explained... and I need to know because my curiosity is killing me!!

It never gets explained. You can use your imagination, but I assume she poops like a snake. We learn in season 3 that she no longer sleeps in the toilet, and knows what its for, so she probably uses the toilet.

and there is no comic that would explained that? to me to make the character more alive... you should make them can poop in the story... because in many stories we don't see the characters poops making the characters look like a product of the story instead of being alive... so word of advice from an artist to artist... make at least make ONE comic that shows that struggle... you don't even need to show the character poops but just need to poop... just don't put more details then that... trust me I know... anyway again like your comics... just need to know that lore of the story... thats all... :3

Well, there are lots of details of my character's life that I'd rather not explore, and instead leave to imagination. This is one of those. For some characters I agree it may make them feel more alive. I don't think thats the case here.

I picked up "the Magical Land of Yeld" yesterday.

I liked the gameplay mechanics and the backstory, not to mention the artwork. ^_^

Would you ever consider creating an expansion with another story-arc, perhaps directly involving the Arsenal of Winter?

I'm glad you liked it!



Yes, we will be doing more story-arcs/campaigns, including one that is all about the Arsenal. But the Arsenal's story won't come for awhile. Our next Core Book (Kickstartering this year, I hope) will include a new campaign that can be played along side or instead of the Hunters of Yeld campaign for the first Core book. We also plan a campaign set around Sarensang/Pirate Bay, and probably a campaign involving the Deep. In addition, the Rank 1 Adventure Set, which will be out soon, includes a mini campaign designed for starting characters.



Now that the game's groundwork has been established we're eager to start telling more stories.

Something to look forward to! :)



I liked the nod to Gary Gygax, too. ;)

Will there ever be an Arneson-based spell?
