Hey there!

I'm Tom Lagier - a writer, artist, and game designer on the Central Coast of California. I'm currently working on modules for Dragonbane, focusing on memorable characters and sticky, old-school gameplay.

Taller Tales is my publishing company, and I expect to release my first full-length module in summer 2025.

When I'm not writing, drawing, or learning one of the ten million different things you need to do to self-publish indie RPGs, I'm probably hiking, surfing, or playing video games.

You can get in touch below. Follow me on BlueSky for updates!
