Three Links

(because five is too ambitious for me this morning) This could be a great campaign organizing tool. I don’t know. Everyone loves random generators. The dragon generator is particularly nice. (d20 tools) For Pat: Cast Fireball at home!

Art Linkage

Angela has started up an art blog for Necropolis Studios. Right now, it has a picture of her working on the awesome dragon she’s making and some pics that Grace drew/painted at the Con. Have I mentioned this dragon before? It is going to be amazing. The thing is big – about the size of the Wizard’s colossal red dragon...

Claw/Claw/Bite

One of the things that made me pretty happy about 3.x D&D was that they made monster attacks more on-par with PC attacks. In earlier versions of the game, for ever time my Thief tried to stab a monster, it could attack me multiple times depending upon how many natural weapons it had.

One-on One Gaming

I ran into this thread on EN World this morning and it got me thinking about GMing for a single player.

A new low?

I never expected to link to Something Awful… but today’s Photoshop Phriday is all D&D monsters… starting off with an owlbear.

Weird monsters

You thought the Fiend Folio was weird? Welcome to Japan. Check out the Obakemono Project. (they also have a great resource page…)

Something to keep an eye on…

The Writer’s Symposium is a group of 20 science fiction/fantasy-type writers who hold seminars and such at Gen Con designed to help writers write. I attended one of these… and, to be honest, I wasn’t terribly impressed. It quickly devolved into “why I like to write sex scenes.” On the other hand, these are writers – not professional public speakers...

Good GM Advice

About half the time, it seems that the roleplaying articles over at Wizards.com are a waste of space. This one, however, is great. It is short and to the point. It focuses on a common problem, recognizes it for what it is, and addresses solutions.
