Tryp, a Newborn Hive Mind - Containing Multitudes with Wes Ascolese (The Wildsea)
Manage episode 389866002 series 3375245
Wes Ascolese brings Trypoxylus "Tryp" to the table. Tryp is a newborn hive mind formed from a group of Japanese stag beetles looking to learn about the world they are seeing with new eyes.
Wes and I discuss how bugs think, trying to build a unified identity, and discovering yourself through your characters.
This character is built for The Wildsea by Felix Isaacs: https://myth.works/collections/the-wildsea-homepage
Wes Ascolese is a leftist TTRPG collector and enthusiast, amateur bookbinder, and obsessive knowledge seeker. He co-wrote Beyond Deep, an adventure for Mörk Borg, with Christopher Koger, which you can find at Exalted Funderal: https://www.exaltedfuneral.com/products/beyond-deep-pdf
