Hey, DM...

Are you looking for a mini adventure to weave into your existing campaign?

Do you need a follow-up story hook now that your players have a lot of COINS?

Welcome to CoinSides Adventure Sparks

Oh boy, do we have a lot of ground to cover? I'm going to take this nice and slow and post one module each day for a week. But you won't have to wait to see them all. They are all here on my itch: https://ex1st.itch.io/ But just to get you up to speed, please read on :D

WHAT ARE SPARKS?

Sparks are side-quests that can be inserted into nearly any existing adventure. Some details and characters have been kept intentionally vague so you can plug in the best-fitting Sparks into your home campaign. While CoinSides are not required, all Sparks have a coin as the central story element.

SO WHAT'S A COINSIDES?
CoinSides are 2" metal coins that spin like a top. You stop them to see what you rolled. They can be used to roll a number of dice, as a spin-down timer, as a life counter, as a fidget spinner, a player marker, a wearable accessory, and even as an amulet to summon The Great Old One (please don't). There are three designs and they are all different. You can find out about them on the game jam that I just put up.

WHAT GAME JAM?
We are inviting you to join the Second CoinSides Adventure Sparks Game Jam. Join. Yep, just join. Join now and enter your game later. Submissions start in one month. It will be open for a month. And voting happens for a month after that. Entries need to be 1500 words, system agnostic, and about coins or a coin or a CoinSide. Easy peasy TTRPGesy. There are prizes (CoinSides) and a potential cash offer to have your entry included in the CoinSides Adventure Sparks Library with all the other previous entries.

PREVIOUS ENTRIES?
Here's a good one! Make a Wish by R. Alexander Calahan features a coin that can grant a wish, but there is a twist. Not wanting to spoil the game for you, you must now share this link with your DM and ask them to check out this... and all the other Sparks to be included in your current campaign.

THAT IS ALL
Please join the jam and make something unique, marvelous, or macabre. Or sneak into the library and read up on all the tales that await you.
