    Jeff Laubenstein is awesome and has done some great alters for me. He’s awesome to talk to at events.

    Dan Frazier will always hold a special place in my heart because I wrote to him and a bunch of other artists when I was 10 or 11 and he was the only one to write back and answer my questions.

    Victor Adame-Minguez did the art for Brutal Expulsion, which is a card that holds special significance for me.

    Howard Lyon does some really phenomenal work and he’s another person who is really great to talk to at events.

    Steve Argyle is an absolute madman when it comes to alters and sketches and he’s another really awesome dude to talk to at events. He’s so soft spoken and his artwork is so loud and I absolutely love that dichotomy.





  • I use Plex. I have different libraries set up for movies, TV shows, educational videos, home videos, and during the pandemic it was great because my kids were doing dance class remotely, so I even set up a library so they could have all their dance class videos in one spot to practice their routines. I also organize my family photos there as well, which works out great to have those and the home videos all in one place. I can even give family members access to various libraries if they want to view family photos/videos, which has been handy as well.

    Lots of people swear by jellyfin, but I’ve had so much success with Plex that I haven’t bothered to check it out. It’s probably easy enough to get a server for each up and running and see which you prefer.






  • Can’t decide if I’m more excited for a Rabbit Unicorn or an Elemental Raccoon.

    For the Alpha creature type, a few possible interesting ones that would fit with the Wilds fairy tale theme might be:

    • Cockatrice
    • Pegasus
    • Paladin
    • Nymph
    • Basilisk

    There’s others like Goblins, Elves, Knights, Faeries, etc., but the ones above haven’t had (as far as I know) any draft support in the past, and I assume he means it’s a tribe that hasn’t gotten such support before. Who knows, though, maybe we’ll get Will-o-the-Wisp tribal!
