True Story: I ran a dungeon crawl using Dread once wherein I managed to get the party to try to swim across a giant, underground, flooded hall. Halfway through things got tense when they realized there were gators swimming in the hall with them.
When they realized the gators were armed with spears, they lost their shit and fled.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Life is short and unfair. I don’t even know what to say. Hours after the last picture I posted of Alice and the kids we came home from the movie to find her nearly dead in her kennel. She stayed at the vet for 36 hours, and after making some improvement on the first day, started to fade last night. I was with her when they put her to sleep this morning. We buried her collar and her stuffed elephant under our deck where she liked to crawl just out of reach. Alice had four owners in her short life. She survived being hit by a car and moving from Alabama to Minnesota. Then being moved around in foster care before she got to us. I hope she knew she was with for the long haul. She was a good pup. This is the last picture I took of her. We were visiting her yesterday at the vet, anticipating bringing her home today.
Pre-gen from Frank Mentzer's module, The Needle , 1987. I knew this was insulting and gross when I was 14. At the time I didn't know who Frank was, since I only played AD&D. I found this module again when I was going through a box of old stuff and was surprised he wrote it, because I thought it was a pretty shitty adventure.
Lizardmen. For when the party gets to thinking they're just a little too clever with infravision. :p
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite Trampier drawings ever.
ReplyDeleteLizardmen and gnolls are my favorite things. And owlbears.
ReplyDeleteThough I admit I call them Lizardfolk. I also call Devils Baatezu and Demons Tanar'ri.
Who the hell gets sick of orcs? >:(
ReplyDeleteDaniel Swensen my PC's are heading to the Tomb of the Lizard King. So they're about to get a vampire lizard king to the face.
ReplyDeleteBret Gillan Lair to lair salespeople. :(
ReplyDeleteLair-to-lair trap salesbeings are the worst. Always dumping acid or poison darts on your floor of 5'x5' stone tile...
ReplyDeleteOnce you've had them fried, grilled, sautéed, dried, poached and fricasseed, they can become a bore, Bret Gillan
