Here Were are, The Nerds

For our team at DRS Publishing, storytelling is everything. If there’s no story to tell, then what’s the point? That’s why every project we tackle is crafted with heart, depth, and a passion for immersive storytelling that keeps players coming back for more.

We started all this as a group of university classmates in Turkey. As the founders of DRS Publishing, our team members were drawn together not just out of friendship but also from our shared love of RPGs, world-building, and storytelling. For us, playing TTRPGs went far beyond just rolling dice and storming through adventures like cliched murder hobos. We needed to breathe life into the adventures we were playing. We needed that special spark to build unforgettable experiences.

We started our publishing adventure with Svilland, a low-magic, gritty setting rooted in Norse mythology and culture. What began as a single book has developed into a vast collection with over 1,000 pages of rich content. From there, we moved forward—Corpus Collection delves deep into the contradictory nature of good and evil. Our team built that based on our team members gravitating towards their own (for fun) alignments. Some were drawn to the light, and some were drawn to the dark. Next on the docket was Bloodpunk, blending dark fantasy with modern themes while offering a unique and fresh experience for every TTRPG enthusiast.

For us, creating just another ordinary world has never been the goal. Though it may seem simple, our philosophy is concise: if there is no story, it shouldn’t be told.
