Bringing Fire: A company offering GM courses and a digital standards push

[Nylanfs]

I went to a meet and greet for this company at Gen Con (2023 for you future folk). https://bringingfire.com/

They had 4 classes on GMing 101, and is taught by a philosophy professor. From what I've heard from others that went, it was very helpful.

But one of the things I found most interesting is they are attempting to build an interface where GM's and Designers could enter their information, and then their customers could select the module / class / sourcebook what have you and then select it to output to the VTT of their choice.

Do you know if they're going to offer support for other VTTs (like FGU) besides Foundry?

I think it's pretty cool and the classes seem neat but I don't honestly see much use for the software. I'm already doing all of that in FGU and the tools in their video seem a bit lackluster in my opinion.

I'm definitely interested in their contemplative GM approach though. I have a therapist friend who uses similar techniques and gives lectures about the topic at a few smaller conventions in the New York/Vermont area.

Their intention is to be able to output for everything they can.

The software right now is VERY basic. And it's aimed primarily at publishers that their customers want to use different character managers and VTT's.
