Have you ever wanted to add a high-stakes sport, a complex hacking sequence, or a gritty survival mechanic to your TTRPG campaign without accidentally bogging down play? Adding custom rules to your table's game system is a great way to make your world feel unique, but if can spell disaster if it's done wrong. Join an experienced RPG designer and author for a practicum on designing custom rules, minigames, and subsystems that enhance your game. You'll learn how to analyze a core system, make homebrew rules to match your game's themes, and figure out when and where to attach new mechanics and when to hijack the rules already in place. Whether you're building a single puzzle for a Friday Night, world-crafting your campaign, or crafting your own new setting, you'll leave with the tools to build mechanics your players will love.
