I’ve been interested in the history of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) in Puerto Rico for a long time. Back in 2017, I started an initiative to track down exactly how Dungeons & Dragons...
Nostalgia. We’ve been riding that wave for a while now. While I have certainly been guilty of buying into it, there is an argument to be made that if we are always revisiting...
Rise from Your Grave! Geeknic 29 is Back from the Dead Klaatu… Barada… GEEKNIC! It has been too long, but the stars have finally aligned (and we remembered the exact words this time)....
Someone recently asked me when I started playing D&D. When I told them it was the mid-80s, their eyes lit up. “Wow! The 80s. You had the Stranger Things experience.” I stopped reflecting...
In Part 1, I talked about my love for Worlds Without Number and how it scratches that specific itch for fantasy d20 gaming. But what about everything else? What about pulp sci-fi, weird...
If you follow my Sunglar’s Musings Facebook page description, you might have noticed I mention reviews there. Well, it is time to deliver. I am writing this post here and a similar (Facebook-friendly)...
Preamble: This post is closely tied to a post I wrote during RPG a Day this year, for day 21, Unexpected. It inspired me to dig deeper into adventures I’ve run as a...

As 2025 draws to a close and I take stock of the past year, I feel this year has been challenging. Nationally, internationally, the world feels on the brink of dark times. I...
Stop me if you’ve heard (read really) say this before! I am a lucky gamer. I have been playing role-playing games for going on four decades. Our gaming group has been meeting every...
So, we come to the end of RPG a Day 2025. Allow me to get a little sentimental. I’ve been participating in RPG a Day for 11 years, and this process has been...
Next to last post for RPG a Day 2025, and the prompt for today is Experience. So, allow me to discuss the experience mechanic in role-playing games, albeit somewhat incoherently, just some random...
Surprise! Earlier in the month, I missed two days, and I quickly remedied the situation and posted the Day 9 post two days late. And now, 19 days late, here is the post...
RPG a Day 2025 has been a great year! For today’s prompt, Connect, I’ll talk about the connections I’ve made participating in the initiative this year. For 2025, I’ve been writing a daily...
Suspense can be particularly challenging to convey effectively in a tabletop RPG. It requires the right mix of player buy-in, effective GM presentation, and a collaboration between all parties. Today’s topic for RPG...
Tactic, that’s the prompt for today on Day 27 of RPG a Day 2015. A tactic is, according to Merriam-Webster, “a device for accomplishing an end”, and Google, using Oxford’s results, says, “an...
