I wanted to make sure to get something posted for the first day of World Ember, so I did two short articles. Facebook Twitter Reddit Tumblr Email

Spooktober 2022: 31 Things You May Encounter in the City of Ten Thousand Daggers
World Anvil’s Spooktober is an event where you get a nifty badge for your profile if you write short entries about at least 13 prompts from a list of 31 options. I decided to tackle all 31 prompts to create a list/random table of 31 Things You May Encounter in the City of Ten Thousand…
Worldbuilding Summer Camp at World Anvil
World Anvil’s World Building Summer Camp event ends next week. Since I didn’t start it until a couple weeks into July, I knew I wouldn’t have time to write entries for all the prompts, but I thought maybe I would be able to do 10 (which would get me a badge for my WA profile)….
Tolva’s Veil
So I included some throwaway (and mostly completely made-up-on-the-spot) references to the City of 10,000 Daggers (mostly its history) in the Dumb Tables at the end of Tales from the Lusty Minotaur, some of which I do plan to write up details about at some point. Conveniently enough, World Anvil is doing writing prompts every…
So Close… (Khezvaros Map)
I’m getting very close to finishing the City of 10,000 Daggers map. Since the last post, I’ve added some green and trees, changed the contour lines into terrain effects with some creative beveling, cleaned up the brush-painted buildings, and added effects to the named buildings. I’m tempted to add effects to the noble villas in…
Khezvaros Updates
Here’s the new map, now with buildings, docks, a moat around Castle Vargo, and a few other additions and modifications. The next step will be to clean up the brushed-in buildings a bit and probably rework or modify a few sections here and there. Then I’ll start putting in some green space and other visual…
RPGaDay2017 In A Day
I know I said I’d get back to the Guardians of Shymeria campaign design walk-through this week, but I’m running a Qerth game using Cinemechanix at GenCon. I’d forgotten how long (compared to QAGS and Cinemechanix) it takes to create a Qerth character even when you’re not also converting them to another game system. So…
#RPGADAY2016 All At Once
I’m going to do all of this year’s #RPGADAY questions real-quick like. 1) Real dice, dice app, diceless, how do you prefer to “roll”? Don’t care. If I’m sitting around a table, I’ll usually go with real dice. If rolling dice is a pain in the ass, I’m fine with an app. Facebook Twitter Reddit…
Omarian Magic Rules
Last week I posted a map and some basic information about the setting for the terrible fantasy novel I’m writing for National Novel Writing Month, The Quest For the Lord of the Dragonsword Throne. Since one of the characters is a wizardess, I’ve had to come up with some basic information about how magic works…
