![cool finds](https://forums.hexed.press/uploads/default/original/2X/c/ca278a7a78f98979986aadfa4c6b6c13026228ad.webp) Over on [the Discord](https://discord.gg/yWzUEh4hzP), I’ve got [a channel for sharing cool stuff](https://discord.com/channels/1108781316037677206/1212424239408480296) of interest from the web. I figured that I should post them here as well. Rather than have each item take up a thread, let’s use this for any fun, interesting, useful bits that might not fit elsewhere but that we think is worth taking a look at! Here’s a small dump of some recent things that I posted in [the Discord](https://discord.gg/yWzUEh4hzP): - [Draw Steel’s Creator License is Good, Actually](https://www.reddit.com/r/rpg/s/1qt2uwjARD) - [Web tools for tabletop RPGs](https://tools.tabletopy.com/) - [LaTex Resources for RPGs](https://vladar.bearblog.dev/blog/?q=latex) - [Mummy Rot Issue #1 - Available Now! - OSR Vault](https://osrvault.com/mummy-rot-issue-1-available-now/) - available for free [on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/osr/comments/1f9vw5d/osrvaults_monthly_zine_mummy_rot_is_now_available/) - [Castle Floor Plans](https://great-castles.com/floorplans.html) ---
