Crafting Chaos, Quests, and Curious Creations Since…
Not That Long Ago
About Us
Tucked between a dusty tome and a glimmering d20, you’ll find Arcane Alcove—a little corner of the multiverse where adventures are written, maps are drawn, and the dice always seem to roll just right (well, almost always).
We specialize in crafting fun books with wild campaign settings, unique monsters and mechanics, innovative spells and enhanced and improved rules for Dungeons & Dragons. And for those who love to plot, plan, and scribble, we also craft custom-designed notebooks to help Game Masters build worlds and players keep their characters alive (and organized).
But wait, there’s more in the alcove! You might spot enchanted dice, scary dice trays, and—coming soon—STL files to conjure your own miniatures.
Whether you’re building a world, rolling up a new character, or just here to browse magical trinkets, Arcane Alcove is your home for tabletop treasures and cool campaigns.
Our Story
It all began the way many great adventures do: around a table, with character sheets full of scribbles, dice clattering across the floor, and far too many stapled pieces of paper.
We’ve been playing Dungeons & Dragons since we were kids— our author and forever DM and his longtime partner-in-chaos, our designer. After years of chaotic campaigns and homebrewed ideas, we finally said: Let’s build something real out of all this.
And so, in 2023, Arcane Alcove was born.
Our first quest? Solve the age-old problem of never having enough space on a character sheet.
Character Notebook
So we created the Character Notebook—a journal crafted specifically for players who think their rogue deserves more than three lines for a backstory. After a month of design, trials, and a few failed saving throws, we found the right manufacturer and, in 2024, the notebook hit local game stores. The adventure had begun.
Dice Tray
Next came the Dice Tray—because rolling your fate should look as epic as it feels. Around the same time, Filip had a spark of madness: “What if we wrote a whole book about mimics?” Thus, Mimicology was born. To tie it all together, we commissioned Ana Kalajdzieva, who summoned up the perfect artwork—a mimic disguised as a dice, printed on our tray of doom.
DM Notebook
While Mimicology took shape, our designer conjured up the Dungeon Master’s Notebook, built for worldbuilding, session notes, and all those juicy secrets DMs aren’t ready to reveal yet—packed with tools to help GMs organize, plot, and quietly panic behind the screen like the rest of us.
Dezriel's Spellbook
Not long after, we teamed up with PrintnPlay Games, a local studio, to create Dezriel’s Spellbook : a magical tome bursting with 48 brand-new spells and 7 wild new mechanics for elemental Wizards and Sorcerers.
mimicology
As the writing of Mimicology neared completion, we welcomed the newest member of our party: the wildly talented Damjan Gjorgievski, a 2D and 3D artist — now hard at work bringing the world of mimics to life (or at least into your nightmares).
And right now, we’re preparing for our biggest adventure yet: a crowdfunding campaign to bring Mimicology to life in all its toothy glory. If you’ve got ideas, advice, or a magical scroll of +2 free marketing, we’d love to hear from you. Every bit of help or encouragement is truly appreciated!
Now, Arcane Alcove is leveling up! We’re Looking for Game Shops & Distributors Worldwide!
Arcane Alcove is growing—and we’re ready to take our products beyond borders!
We’re currently looking for game shops, retailers, and TTRPG distributors around the world who are interested in carrying our unique lineup of products.
