Quick Note – Mage Armor
Looking at the SRD the spell “Mage Armor” reads as such: An invisible but tangible field of force surrounds the subject of a mage armor spell, providing a +4 armor bonus to AC. Unlike mundane armor, mage armor entails no armor check penalty, arcane spell failure chance, or speed reduction. Since mage armor is made […]
5-Minute Adventure: Shrine of Thiseir for Swords & Wizardy and Next
While the following is a new 5-minute adventure it is a departure from a normal 5-minute adventure in two ways. The first is obvious as it is listed in the title of the post and that is tha tI developed the adventure to be usable in both Swords & Wizardry Core (4th printing) and the […]

[Quick Note] Thunderscape’s First Adventure Path Begins
As I’ve mentioned before I am a huge fan of Thunderscape’s premise and was a big supporter of its Kickstarter last year. I have since gotten my hardcopy of the book (only the second time a kickstarter ponied-up what it promised for me) and have poured through it a few times in hopes of someday […]
Quick Note – Courageous Chromatic Power Commandos
