Rage Against the Warmachine, PT1
What is Warmachine? Let us start with Steampunk. Steampunk is a genre/subculture/art-style/what-have-you (as I write this it’s probably spreading gear-covered tendrils) characterized by brass, bolts, gears, combustion, and old-school clothing styles. The basic idea behind it is in answer to “What if technology had never gone digital?” Warmachine is a game set in a...

THINKING ABOUT CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES: DEXTERITY
Dexterity is probably my favorite stat, most notably because I love rogues. Dexterity is what characters use to dodge attacks, aim ranged attacks, sneak in the shadows, perform feats of acrobatics, and avoid traps. It factors into their initiative and their Reflex defense. More than that, dexterity is the measurement of balance, poise, precision, and accuracy of any given character. It’s...

Skavv's Rant: The Bobbit Worm
The ocean is full of terrifying things, but none are quite so fearsome as the Bobbit worm. At a glance, the Bobbit worm looks like a creature out of Star Wars. The reality is much worse; these things could easily make your adventuring party shit themselves, just put them on land.
The Bobbit worm is a predatory creature that lurks in the ocean depths, infiltrating the shallow seabed some 100 feet...

escocesvoador asked: Hey, man. 2 months ago I asked if I could translate some of your texts. I have had experiencing some time shortage, but the first one, on Strength, have already been published. I just finished the translation and posted the one about Intelligence a few minutes ago. Form now on, things are going to be a little more agile. If you want to read (or at least show someone), they can be read at my blog,...

Treasure in Tepdos: Living Quarters
This is part of my Treasure in Tepdos adventure, which can be found on the Dungeon Map. Living Quarters [Blank Map] [DM Map] The stale scent of body odor and refuse permeates this smoky room as the door is opened. Torches line many of the walls, casting vague shadows on the dry, oily rock (DC 15 to climb). Stinking blankets lie scattered around the floor, covering the stone surface almost...

Dungeons and Dragons Drinking Game
A drinking game I came up with, though I’m sure that people have done this before; feel free to check my other posts on the Dungeon Map! RULES These are all optional; most are controllable by the character, and most are ‘mistakes’ a character can make. Write up your own list before you start playing so that it is clear which ones you have decided to use. A player drinks when...

Treasure in Tepdos: Main Hall
This is part of my Treasure in Tepdos adventure, which can be found on the Dungeon Map.
Main Hall [Map] [DM Map] The largest chamber in the cavern, this room is surprisingly earthy. Torches run down the length of the room, but several of them have guttered out, leaving most of the cavern is still shrouded in darkness. Luminescent purple fungi grow in abundance to either side of the cavern...

Treasure in Tepdos: Entry Chamber
This is part of my Treasure in Tepdos adventure, which can be found on the Dungeon Map. As they reach the end of the path, the swamp gives way to the foothills of the mountains. The path follows an upward slant as a Cliffside builds on the right. Finally the cliff curves around, into a cleft in the cliff side barely past a small waterfall. Falling down from far overhead, the water disappears into...

Treasure in Tepdos: Leaving Town
This is part of my Treasure in Tepdos adventure, which can be found on the Dungeon Map. During their stay at the tavern, the party hears one of the more popular local tales. Some thirty years ago, the mad dwarf pirate Black Mord made his home in the mountains north of town. For years he led raids on Tepdos from his cave hideout until he was finally chased down by local mercenaries. Rather than...

Treasure in Tepdos: Welcome to Tepdos
This is part of my Treasure in Tepdos adventure, which can be found on the Dungeon Map. Deep in the coastal bogs of southern Tor lies the town of Tepdos. A ramshackle assortment of wooden homes built on stilts, the town is connected by a network of bridges and pathways built of driftwood and roughly hewn planks. Sheltered to the north and east by a rugged cliff, Tepdos is a common port of...

Treasure in Tepdos
In the next few days I will be posting the first blogged adventure I have written for public use: Treasure in Tepdos. Designed for a level 1 party, it should serve as a fun introduction to the game. The party will start off in a coastal city, and venture through a swamp to a goblin-infested cave to find a forgotten pirate’s treasure. For copyright reasons, I’m pretty sure I...
