I was briefly considering entering the Paizo RPG Superstar competition this year (the jury’s still out on whether I’m going to or not), so I quickly decided to whip up a magic item just for practice. It’s not very original, but it’s alright for a first try:
Eye of Medusa
Aura: evocation; CL 7th
Slot: none; Weight: 1 lb; Price: 9500 gp
Description
The eye of [...]

[The Savage World Ends With You] Psyches
October 9th, 2009 · No Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
So, I’m trying to get back into blogging after a few tough weeks, and I remembered that there’s a series of mine I haven’t updated in a good while… And I think you can see the logical progression there. This time, I’m going to talk about Psyches.
Now, the default Arcane Background for psychics works fine [...]
[Dungeons and Dragons, 4th Edition] 9's Cobra Seamstress
September 12th, 2009 · No Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
As I mentioned before, I saw 9 last night, and one of the enemies I really liked was the Cobra Seamstress (officially just the Seamstress), a very cool monster that looked like this:
I thought it was very cool. So cool, in fact, that one of the first things I thought to myself when I got [...]
[Savage Worlds] Distributed Workshop – Items of the Hidden Kingdom
August 6th, 2009 · 3 Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
Nevermet Press focuses on exclusively stat-free writing, letting bloggers stat out the monsters and items for them. Today, I’m writing Savage Worlds stats for some of the items in today’s post, Items of the Hidden Kingdom.
None of these items are priced, assuming that the player would find these in their battles against the Hidden Kingdom.
Magical [...]
[Character Spotlight] Hiding in Plain Sight
July 31st, 2009 · 4 Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
I’m going to take a brief intermission from The Savage World Ends With You to cover something else Savage that I’ve been given the opportunity to cover: Strike Force 7.
Strike Force 7 is a supplement for Savage Worlds that lets you play in a Saturday morning cartoon style military squad against a group of terrorist [...]
[Lookouts RPG] Planning for May We Die in the Forest
July 17th, 2009 · 7 Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
[Note: This was written before the complete Lookouts run had ended up Penny-Arcade, so doesn't incorporate any but the first three comics.]
I have a pretty bad habit of working on everything I work on ever behind a brick wall, for a number of reasons, namely because a) I don’t like people seeing my work [...]
[Dungeons and Dragons, 4th Edition] Savage Species: The Marut
June 11th, 2009 · 7 Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
I was talking to Greywulf on Twitter a few nights ago about a number of things – bullywugs, the good old days of gaming, and making PC races for 4th Edition. At some point I mentioned the ridiculous idea of going through the Monster Manual in order and making everything a playable race. He brought [...]

[Dungeons and Dragons, 4th Edition] House Rule – Death Saves
May 24th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
Why don’t death saves reward you for natural 20s? Attack rolls do, and skill checks even have an “official” house rule for it, but death saves give you the same reward whether you roll a natural 20 or a modified 21. I decided to fix that with a house rule.
1 – 10 Condition worsens, one [...]

[Announcement] "What You Don't Know", a Dollhouse RPG
May 8th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Announcement, Game Material, RPG Bloggers Network
By the time you read this, the season (and perhaps series) finale of Dollhouse has aired. The secrets (or most of them at least) have been revealed, Alpha’s grand scheme has been revealed, and I have little doubt that someone has died as a result of his plans. By the time you are reading this, [...]
[Dungeons and Dragons, 4th Edition] Unleash Your Inner Fox: The Kyubi Epic Destiny
April 24th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Game Material
In the most recent issue of Kobold Quarterly, there is an all new race for Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition called the kitsune, based upon Japanese mythology. Kitsune are fox like creatures with multiple tails who can shift between fox and human forms, and the myths about them have many interesting possibilities, like the Kyubi, [...]
