The Warped Crucible

The workshop of the duke's (now missing) alchemist. The combination of two of his half-successful experiments has produced a strange mass that tries to imitate and consume all it meets.

Empire of the Petal Throne Character Sheet (Portrait Edition)

I play in an Empire of the Petal Throne campaign every Friday that’s been going on for well over a year now. Back when I started I drew up a pair of character sheets for the game (a quick and…

I love seeing these "old" sheets in the wild still. I drew these up over sixteen years ago.

I’m using @dysonlogos.bsky.social B/X character sheets for my OD&D campaigns. It’s not a 100% matchup, but 99.9% and the slight differences are negligible. I just find it visually extremely appealing and the players are able to put all important info on a page with room to spare. #DnD #OSR #ttrpg

Picked up a tarot-themed game that I'm loving called "The Shipwreck Arcana".

One player draws two "Fate" tiles and then plays one on a card based on the rules of the card then the other players try to figure out what the other tile they are holding is.

Unearthing the Petrified Legend

A dungeon built up around a giant petrified medusa, now crawling with malignant beings that seem to be little more than shards of stone animated by pure malice.

And of course, the MacGuffin is kept here.

No.

YOU are excited that Twilight:2000 is back on the table.

Can't be me. I'm too jaded for this shit. I can't possibly be giddy that I'm pulling out this classic as a player for the first time since high school. (GMd a bunch of times, but haven't been a player since my teens)

I'm working on a quick and dirty little MÖRK BORG adventure for Hallowe'en... My idea for the antagonist was originally "The Hollow King"... and then I had the idea to fill the hollow king with insects.

And the next thing I knew, I was drawing Oogie Boogie as the villain.

LOL.

These are GAMES. They are meant to be played with.

It's like seeing a pristine Star Wars figure. You know that the previous owner didn't actually get to enjoy playing with it. A waste.

4:3 "Look to the West. Forth comes fire, and a horde, and the Kingdoms burn."

So reads the Calendar of Nechrubel. The fires burned too hot, too fast, and none survived.

But after the fires came the rains. And from the ashes rose a new horde, the Clay.

ALWAYS WRITE IN THE BOOKS!

Dyson Logos @dysonlogos.bsky.social · 13d

A lot of you are allergic to writing in your RPG books.

So, instead of having you scratch out entries and write new ones in your MorkBorg books, I've put together some alternate Corpse Looting tables so you don't get the same results a second time.

A sudden attack of inspiration has me slapping together a quick Mork Borg supplement.

And of course, it needed a cover image.

A burial site turned into a hiding place for forbidden knowledge. At the heart of the Lantern Crypt is the eponymous lantern - a relic that reveals truths invisible to mortal eyes.
