GenCon!
Those of you who have been here a full year may remember that last year, I wrote a cute little GenCon announcement skitthat I didn't end up having time to film! This year I had a little more bandwidth, so I modified it for my 2024 programming and put it together.Was it too much work for a 60-second convention promo...

Aasimar Rogue/Wizard
WHOOPS! I never posted this full gallery!Anyway, I shot a LOT of photos of this lady because I felt very badass in this outfit 😅 This is from one of the latest videos in the growing line that supports the hypothesis that the longer I spend making a video, the worse it performs.
You can play this D&D adventure by yourself
LIMPING ACROSS THE FINISH LINE HERE... I don't know how I keep forgetting that when you shoot hours of footage, it takes hours longer to edit 🥲I have to rush off to another thing that is secretfor now, but I hope you guys enjoy this one!!

Who should I play in a solo D&D adventure?

I was so excited to have a good excuse to cosplay a girly-girl orc princess for Pointy Hat's Kraken Week video! This is Princess Lua, quest-giver and central NPC in the free adventure available alongside Pointy Hat's video. I got to help write this NPC and her role in the adventure.Fun fact: This outfit is Clov...
I want a playable merfolk D&D race (so I made one)
HI FRIENDS! I know I usually release videos on Wednesdays, but since Kraken Week kicks off today, Pointy Hat and I both rushed our videos to have them out on day one! And by rushed, I mean... rushed. This turned out to be a very big edit, and to be honest, I wish I had another day to polish it (mostly just because I ha...

D&D is changing bards (and I got to see 👀)
Wizards sponsored me and sent me a preview of the new College of Dance bard!

Harengon Druid
Here are all the photos of the neutral evil Harengon Druid from this week's video!

Fiend Warlock 🔥
I went back and forth on whether I wanted to share these photosets with you guys early, since they're... kiiiind of spoilers for this week's video? But I'm too excited about them to not share!In this week's video, I roll dice to generate 3 D&D characters, and then cosplay them(using makeup from sponsor ...
Ginny Di ~in action~
I have recently found myself sometimes needing images of myself DMing or playing, and not having any! (Or at least, not that I have rights to — since, by nature, authentic photos of me in action are shot by someone else.) So... I FAKED IT.Here are a few shots of me sadly pretending that I have friends at the table ...

The delightful Nathan, who edited this week's video (and, yes, gave me permission to credit him by name, despite his cagey edit here 😂) put together a blooper reel for us! Here's a little window into how much I overreact to messing up a line — as well as why the cats aren't often "in" my videos...

When I am permitted to write ads using whatever themes I want, it's basically a coin toss between "plant-y lady" and "spooky lady." This week, spooky lady won.Anyway, here's Dollar Store Jennifer's Body from an Instagram sponsorship for today 👍
Once Upon a Dream
I got to attend the "Once Upon a Dream ball" last night from Second Star Eventsand it was magical! 😍 I've never seen so many people in full fantasy dress in one place before — unlike a Renaissance Festival or a convention, there wasn't a single person who wasn't dressed for the occasion. Josh e...

Some costumes with class 💅
I got to put together some half-costume, half-fashion looks inspired by D&D classes for an upcoming brand partnership and I think these came out so cute! Can you guess which classes they all are? 👀I think my favorite is the purple tiefling. I've done a few one-off purple-skinned looks (the sporty tiefling, Alfir...
