A Sundered World: Black Book Primer

Someone asked if Dungeons & Delvers: Black Book had a built in setting. It didn’t, and technically still doesn’t, but we added a primer for A Sundered World in case you want to use that, because it’s at least very much different from a bog-standard pseudo-European-ish fantasy setting (which I figure anyone can do on their own). […]

Dungeons & Delvers: Black Book Softcovers…

…still aren’t available. Yet. We got the print proof in yesterday, but the text is closer to the spine than I (and probably you) would like. Title text is also closer to the top than I’d like. So, I made some adjustments and re-uploaded the files: the next proof should be perfect. Really like the […]

It’s Christmas in July!

Enlil-Zi-Shagal’s Sky Tomb: Monsters!

So I’m working on this 1st-level intro adventure for Dungeons & Delvers: Black Book that takes place within the tomb of a jinn floating about the Elemental Plane of Air. I got the maps (four right now) mostly done, but am still working on room contents and also how some of the power generator puzzles are […]

Black Book: Bard Concept

A long time ago Melissa and I played in a Dungeon World campaign where she gave the bard class a shot for like six or so levels. She hated it so much that we decided to just make our own bard (that a lot of other people also like, so I guess that was more productive than just […]

Dungeons & Delvers: Appendix D Issue 3

The third issue of Appendix D has been added to Dungeons & Delvers: Black Book (for free of course): it adds the vancomancer (a spellcasting class that uses an actually Vancian magic system), necromancer talent tree to the wizard, six magic items (some undead, some drawn from The Dying Earth), and more higher-level undead monsters. As with […]

Charmed, I’m Sure

When I was working on the succubus for the second Appendix D update for Dungeons & Delvers: Black Book, I went through various D&D editions to see what they did, and one thing I noticed that she always gets an at-will charm person. I made a Charm talent for the wizard in an earlier Dungeons & Delvers draft (the […]

Dungeons & Delvers: Age of Worms, Episode 605

Cast Humal (level 10 wrathful cambion wizard) Corzale (level 10 dwarf war cleric) Sumia (level 10 elf rogue/ranger) Summary Busy with lots of stuff (work, game work/stuff, art for various things, kids, general farm crap, etc), so I’m going to keep this as short as possible (which after writing it ended up not being nearly […]
