Inktober2016: Snail Dungeon Cover

The now-Thursday group has been crawling through the snail dungeon over the past several weeks. We’re playing in A Sundered World (which is also the Deal of the Day over on DriveThruRPG) but using FrankenFourth rules (though it’s also going to be released for Dungeon World first). So, I figured a good cover would be Adam’s character Waive (an A Sundered […]

Inktober2016: Snails & Stats

Though I’m running the snail dungeon thing using FrankenFourth, I figure I could also write it up for Dungeon World, so here are some stat blocks. (I should note that I’m adding a medium tag for human-sized things, ditching Instinct because no one was able to justify its existence back when I made this post on […]

Inktober2016: Rocket Snail

I ran A Sundered World a few days ago using FrankenFourth. Adam wanted to keep playing Waive from our previous Dungeon World campaigns, so he rolled up a scion (ie, human) nomad, Shane went with a tarchon battlemind (surprising no one), and Melissa ended up with an ishim blasty wizard. I’ll do a playtest report soon (probably […]

Inktober2016: Spiked Snail & Snail Mage

Keeping this whole snail cult thing going, here’s an ambiguously-sized spiked snail (could be small, could be really big): And, per Melissa’s suggestion, a magic-using snail that sits on your head and takes over so it can make you cast spells: Assuming everything goes according to plan, tomorrow evening we’ll be playing FrankenFourth using A Sundered […]

Inktober2016: High Priest/Cultist of Ostoma

So one thing lead to another and now I got this weird idea for a dungeon infested by a cult that worships a snail god. Since Inktober is also a thing, figured I might as well get the art going, starting with the cult high priest. Gonna write it up the adventure for both A […]

Dungeon World: Edenvale One-Shot

Cast Darwin (3rd-level cultist) Hordac (3rd-level vampire) Mihara (3rd-level oni) Standing on the outskirts of a little village called Edenvale and the aptly named Castle of Ten-Thousand Screaming Souls, the party opted to head to the village first in order to hire, depending on who you asked, some sacrifices, food supply, or both. That was […]

Dungeon World: New Character Sheet Layout

I like that classes in Dungeon World tend to fit on a single page (not so much that they are expected or “supposed” to). This makes it easy to just grab a sheet, check some boxes, fill in a bond or two, and get the dice rolling. I do however have several problems with the standard […]

Dungeon World: What’s In a Name

UPDATE (5/31/2016): Didn’t think I’d ever have to update this again, but RPG Pundit started a thread on his site in which he goes over the advice he gave me following Paul “Ettin” derailing a Kickstarter thread I started on rpg.net last year I mentioned that someone told me that there’s a forum where someone […]

Dungeon World: The Cultist

The Cultist is now up on Drivethrurpg! Given all the other Lovecraftian content I’ve created over the years, I’m honestly surprised it took us this long to make a cultist class. You start out being able to requisition resources from your cult, summon monsters, perform dark rituals, and knowing things that people just shouldn’t know. As […]

A Sundered World: Meet the Tarchon (And Cultist)

Here’s the tarchon, a kind of dragonic-humanoid race born from the mingled blood of god, primordial, and Bahamut (the World-Fish). Born from bloodlust, tarchons have an almost constant urge to fight and kill. Their starting move has them take a constant -1 ongoing whenever they can see a fight but are not part of it, […]
