Announcing #RPGaDAY2026 in August
While working on my web site, adding some new features, I can across my old RPG a Day posts and began to wonder … is RPG a Day still a thing. Come to find out it sure is!! I am starting 9 days late. If I have time I will try to make up for that. This time they are doing themes and this year it is characters.
Being that I have started two settings and finished my own version of D6, I decided to use this as an opportunity to work with all three. I am going to build some NPCs – in Savage Worlds and/or RD6 – in both settings – Shattered Expanse and Blood & Suns, starting with August 9.

08/12/2026 Update
For the most part, I have decided just to write about the NPC and not really provide stats unless I am inspired to do so. Some are larger than life NPCs that don’t really need it while others are so insignificant, I don’t think I need to. But if I do find something to stat out – an Edge, Talent or something like that, I will.
This is giving me a real opportunity to explore both settings – to see both through the eyes of an individual I am imaging in these worlds. And they are both very different, for obvious reasons and others no so obvious. Shattered Expanse has ancient and epic history that lingers and effects cultures throughout the known space. Blood & Suns has social dynamics that are grounded and dark. But when you boil it down to an individual’s perception, the weight of both worlds can really be felt,
