Reblogging to raise awareness of this cool campaign 🫖🐭

A page spread entitled "Helpful Pot of Mouse". There's a lot of text and it's not really the focus of this post -- the point here is to show off the look & layout. The left-hand page has the title, a row of icons, a short block of text, and an illustration. The illustration shows a piece of mouse-shaped pottery with floral designs painted on it, out of which red mouse-like constructs made from wine & herbs are emerging. There are also marginal notes designed to look as though they appear in two different hands. The right-hand page has a lengthy "Optional Play" section and a sidebar, under which is an illustration in a sketch-like style of one of the mouse constructs. Around the edges of both pages are apparent wine stains, including some that are noticeably shaped like rows of mouse footprints, and a couple that look suspiciously like someone has rested a cup on the book.

A sample page spread from the GM's Guide in our current kickstarter project, a collection of 50 system-neutral magic items for TTRPGs inspired by medieval literature, marginalia, and archaeology.

Okay, technically this one is inspired by pre-medieval archaeology, but come on. Look at it. You can't be mad at those little mice.

This was inspired by the following item of ancient pottery, currently held by the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (link here):

A photograph of a pottery vessel shaped like a mouse, painted with floral designs.

And no, I cannot explain how or why I decided that this thing should be used to make helpful mouse-constructs out of wine. But if you want it to do that for you, you can back the kickstarter at the link below -- it runs until the end of June.
