Other Magics is designed by Luke and James, two long time friends and tag-team forever GMs turned amateur game designers, inspired to make 'experience first' games in the OSR/NSR style.

Meet the Designers

Luke lives in NYC with his wonderful wife and their growing collection of plants, books, and indie-TTRPGs. In his time away from work and game design, he dabbles in hobbyist video game modding, runs and plays in as many OSR games as he can, and blogs at Atmospheric Underworld.

James lives in Mississippi with his husband and their two beautiful dogs. James is a part of his local improv group and multiple book clubs. When James is not protecting wetlands or designing Other Magics, he likes to stay busy with traveling and friends.

AI Statement

The designers object to the use of generative AI technology in TTRPGs and similar creative works. Generative AI has not and will not be used in the development of Other Magics, and to the best of the designers' ability, will be excluded from other design processes adjacent to the game.
