I know that FMs are one of the major focuses of the community, but what about fanfiction and comics? I know a few fanfiction pieces are on the TTC main website, and I've found some across the web, but I thought I might ask if anyone has any writing they've discovered/would like to share. Someone also wrote a Thief TTRPG too, I think?

The TTRPG you're thinking of might be (

That was one of them. There was another, one actually set in the Thiefverse, that was made by a fan here. It was a downloadable PDF and made using a mechanics system that had rules for minions.
Edit: Here's the free SRD for
Blades in the Dark. It doesn't have details on the default city-setting like the corebook might, but it has enough to get people started on their own game: (

theBlackman wrote some great stuff surrounding his character Mr Feiht including a short novel: "To Pay the Rent." I have the various PDF's somewhere on my computer but know of no place on the www where they are hosted. If anybody wants to host them or just wants a copy PM me an e-mail addy and I'll send it along.

Not in the
Thief canon as far as I know. There are, however, audiobooks of Umberto Eco's
In the Name of the Rose, which inspired the Keepers and their aesthetic. The monastery the main monk character is from even has its architecture replicated in some of
Thief's levels.
Maybe someone here could read out some of the
Thief fanfiction on their YouTube channel? I know horror stories and urban legends are popular readalongs on there. You may also want to look up and see if anyone's uploaded their
Blades in the Dark games for people to listen/watch.
