I decided to do an old-school blue dungeon for my next #Mapvember2022 map and came up with a trick that speeds up drawing in the basic rooms and tunnels. You’ll need to be a patron to see the page. If you’re a patron who needs access, send me your World Anvil username and I’ll set…
Some sample hooks. The thinking is you create a standard hook list on a game-by-game basis. The level of crunch for each hook depends on the game and group preferences. If you want crunch, you can have, for example, a D&D style template that spells out elven abilities. If you don’t, the GM can just…
Note: This is part 1 of a continuing series (currently on part 6 for patrons). From here on out, I’ll be making an old post public each time I make a new one for patrons (so when Part 7 goes up, Part 2 will go public). If you don’t want to wait, become a patron! …
I’ve gotten bad at reading actual books (regardless of format), so in 2018 I re-started an old livejournal tradition of keeping a running list of the books that I’d read that year. My thinking was that knowing the actual number of books I’d read might convince me to read a real book instead of clicking…

Spells are a very important part of D&D, especially for spell casters. The selection of spells a spell caster has available to him can have a major effect on his or her spelling. I think the most important aspect of spells are their spell like qualities…ok, you got me, I didn’t read the spell section,…
It’s been a while since I’ve shamelessly plugged anything, so let’s start with that. Hex Games co-founder Leighton Connor has just released the latest Ross Fulton, Occult Detective story, The MarmiCon Conundrum, in which I appear as a character. Leighton and I will also be releasing a new Brainfart Press book next week called Pig…
An elf swings his delicate bejewelled sword, puncturing a disbelieving dwarf’s heart with a graceful flourish. A paladin screams “Die Infidel Scum” as he murders orcish children for the glory of his bloodthirsty sun god.
