Tenkar’s Tavern: The Investigative Heart of the OSR
Hosted by Tenkar, a retired NYPD investigative sergeant and gamer since 1980, this is the home for honest, unfiltered OSR news and RPG investigations. No corporate gloss—just scripted, no-nonsense investigations into the hobby we love.
WHAT WE COVER
We dive deep into the systems that prioritize player agency:
- B/X D&D & Old-School Essentials (OSE)
- Shadowdark RPG & Swords & Wizardry
- TSR History & Industry News
THE SCHEDULE
Join the "Minions" for a relentless content stream:
- Videos: 5 days a week.
- Livestreams: Wed, Thu, & Sat nights (and 2 Sundays a month)
- The Open Table: A persistent world for members.
THE AESTHETIC
We utilize a "high-tech random table" approach to maintain a classic 1980s TSR aesthetic, keeping the Tavern’s identity consistent while I focus on the deep-dives you come for.
