Create an original piece of game content for KOKOTÖNA ——————————————————————————————————— A creature? A rolltable? A class? You decide what "game content" means! "Remembered, not discovered" Before the first tribe was molded from stolen flesh. Before the Twin-Snakes bit the weaver. Even before Metzteotl tore himself apart wishing to end his solitude, Teotlan was already doomed. This is the ethos of What ALWAYS Was Here. Teotlan does not need foreign conquerors to bring its apocalypse. It does not need outside forces to justify its darkness. Its 7,000-year history of divine betrayal, bloody covenant, and inevitable unraveling is complete on its own. The doom was always here. We now simply remember how it all got to this. A duty both Sacred & Accursed Whether you have never created a TTRPG submission before, or you are a veteran world-builder with a shelf of published zines and modules, this is your invitation to descend into Teotlan. To weave your own threads into the loom of doom. The rules of this jam are few and simple: No length requirements. Your submission can be a single page, a full spread, a creature stat block, a character class, a scenario, a random table, a piece of lore, or something else entirely. Short is fine. Long is fine. Low-effort is not. No generative AI. All art and text within your submission must be human-made. You must vote. Participate in the judging process. Leave helpful feedback. A flayed heart feeds the Spider, a closed fist starves only yourself.…
