About this site

Hi! My name is Lucas, and I made Veritas Tabletop to publish 3rd party homebrew content for tabletop roleplaying games. In my day job, I'm a public school history teacher, and so I am inspired by history. I believe that grounding roleplaying games in history can both make our games better and can give us a richer understanding of the real world around us.

I've also written for Into the Spine.

What does "Veritas" mean?

The theme of the blog, the homebrew I create, and the style of campaign I run, are all about how to use history to make more deep & complex RPGs. I went with the term “Veritas” to name my publication because 1) the term is Latin, which roots it in history, 2) the word means “truth” which also feels relevant to the idea of using history responsibly, and 3) it is the name of a program that specialized in adult and continuing education in my hometown at which my dad used to teach, so the word has extra connotations with history to me.
