Lux Adversaria is a series of informal essays where I dig into different traits of roleplaying. "Adversaria" refers to "miscellaneous writings" in Latin, representing my personal collections of notes and reflections. The term "lux adversaria" roughly translates to "light of adversity," reflecting my exploration of challenges and difficult topics.

We understand that the true essence of roleplaying unfolds around the table, where creativity and collaboration flourish, not within the pages of a rulebook.
