Tonight's B-movie: DOCTOR MORDRID (1992). From the producers of the beloved Robot Jox and Reanimator, we get a "supposed to be Dr. Strange, but we lost the license" movie, starring the legendary Jeffrey Combs and Brian Thompson. Surprisingly fun, and at 74 minutes, doesn't overstay its welcome.
Jeffery Combs as Doctor Mordrid.

I designed the #Daggerheart domain icons, and it's really cool to see how well the graphics team integrated them into the look and style of the book design. (I'm only just now getting around to cracking the book open and checking it out.)

Something that I'm really excited about in this Deep Cuts project: printed maps for each district of Doskvol (which fold to 6" x 9") -- which are DRY ERASE compatible, folks. Mark 'em up with your turf, factions, NPCs, etc. I can't wait to use these at the table!
