This is a tempting little piece of tech for all of us who are middling at best in our ability to draw hand drawn maps. Map Hash Pattern for GIMP by Morgajel over at RPGnow as a Pay-What-You-Want title. while not my cup of tea (I’ve come to enjoy the zen of drawing my little […]
As I’ve said in a few challenge posts that I have made in the past, I did not actually start roleplaying or having an understanding of roleplaying until I was in my twenties (22 to be exact!). That being said I missed the whole play-by-mail thing by a mile. By the time gaming entered my […]
Game Geeks wasn’t able to do a review this week (A shame since he was starting to pick back up again after a few years of very few reviews) but they did instead give us, the Community, homework. And honestly it is some homework that I have been wondering about myself of late to ask […]
Below is the final raceless class for the Eira Setting and joins the other two raceless classes that have come before it. Originally, the Prodigal went by the name “Wanderer” and was the only race-based class for the dropped “Changeling” race. The Changeling was dropped as a race when it was decided to make the […]
The past week has not been good to me, but this is not the place for that. Rumors of my death have nearly been true … but not true enough. My apologizes to anyone who reads Genius Loci for my hasty and unplanned disappearance! So to get back into the groove of blog life I […]

Trolling aorund rpgnow today looking for onsale/cheap stock art to collect for future use I cam across this recent re-release by WOTC of the TSR 2e adventure The Murky Deep. Now as many of the readers of Genius Loci know I was not gaming in the 2e days (or the 0e or 1e days) so […]
With March quickly approaching I find myself choking under the self imposed deadline of “Lights over Innsfjord”. Again I wonder if I have bitten off more than I can chew, especially after the moderate (by my middling standards at least) of both “The Nest” and “Under the Horn” (which now has 2 4-5 star reviews […]
So I’ve actually received a few questions about the kind of world that “Under the Horn” takes place in. Hmmm … I wonder if this 19 minute video will illuminate those who wonder.
