Quick Note – Does it Really Count
Spelljammer is one of those things that I’ve always regretted missing out on and at the same time have shied away from at every opportunity. The entire concept of the setting is amazing to me and screams at long odds and playing as a member of a fantasy version of the Starjammers! Have I mentioned […]
Quick Note – Cartographer’s Guide Updated
The Cartographer’s Guide to the Creatures of Eira just saw its first major update and is up over at drivethrurpg.com now. Take a look below to see the new look and one or two of the new creatures
Creatures of Eira Preview – The Alp-Luachra
Alp-Luachra El watched in fascination as the small newt-like creature slid from the dark waters of the nearby river and sped to the sleeping Rock. Up his chest it went toward the large Highlander’s open mouth. At the last second El pointed a finger and magic sundered the creature. Type: Fae, Lesser Hit Dice: <1 […]
Quick Note – Helena’s Gauntlet can be a sad tale
Work on the Edge of Space Adventure “Helena’s Gauntlet” can be a sad tale I’m finding out as I’m going back over it in proofing and revision. I seem to have unintentually added in some minor character drama with a few NPCs that the players could possibly run into. I say possibly because I basically […]
Quick Note – ENnies here I come!
On the advise of the indomitable +Charles Akins I have submitted Genius Loci (this blog) to the 2014 ENnie Awards for consideration. The Cartographer’s Guide to the Creatures of Eira has also been submitted (see reviews here and here) so fingers are doubly crossed!

Quick Note – The Miracle of Science
Now that “Joy in a Flask” is done and only waiting on the final cover piece I started up work again on my next X-plorers adventure “The Miracle of Science”. I hope to have this one done within the week (possible done text by this weekend). Then comes the editing, the layout and finding a […]
Quick Note – MWP’s new Firefly Game now on DTRPG
I remember picking up the Cortex hardback of “Serenity” back in 2008 from a Waldenbooks back in my home town ready to find a crew and travel the ‘verse … unfortunately no one where I lived wanted to try a new system out and were content to continue to play Vampire (which I eventually and […]
The Lost city of Barakus – Update
Earlier when I posted about the Barakus kickstarter I had failed to look at the pre-existing kickstarter updates before posting. I have now looked at those updates and most say it is a bit of an incentive to backing early: If we fund by 9am, April 2nd, we will provide Player’s Maps for Barakus! For […]
Quick Note – Caves of the Giant Frog Page 6
So as I’ve previously said I now have publishing software. This means I can make the adventures look prettier. Here is an example using the gridded map on page 6 of the adventure “Joy in a Flask”. How can a two-page adventure have a page 6? Easy: 1. Cover2. Credits3. Splash4. Adventure5. Artsy Map6. Grid […]
