Urban Doings Redolent with Flavour and Detail

Into the Erdukr's Blasted Donjon

Incremental Adventure Design Thoughts & Questions

Why are adventures “one and done”?

As designers, we pour our hearts and souls into our adventures. We (hopefully figuratively) shed blood, wear our fingers to the bone, and make sacrifice...

Deites & Demons

Deities and demons are eternal. Lurking elsewhere, they guide and manipulate humans and their kin in the eternal struggle of good against evil. Back in 2019, almost three years ago to the day, we r...

When we first released the Wilderness Dressing line (way back in 2012 or so and only for Pathfinder 1), we only focused on the traditional adventure locales—hills, mountains, forests and so on. 2023-06-09 06:48:17 +0000 UTC View Post

Centaurs and Ankhegs Battle for Supremacy (Maybe)

Your Characters Are Going Shopping (And So Am I)

This week is one of those rare weeks where we aren’t releasing something new to the general public. It happens every time a month is mean enough to have five weeks in it.

Dare You Consult the Undying Oracles?

This week, we have a cracking Dungeon Backdrop for you—one that could serve as not only a compelling adventure site but also could help you with a spot of world-building. What’s not to like? 2023-05-19 06:26:03 +0000 UTC View Post

Gambling Dens and Weaponsmiths!

In some regards, this could be a jolly bad combination of businesses. You’ve got a pack of gamblers—many of which will lose—and ready access to a supply of weapons. That could go badly wrong!...

We’ve repeatedly visited the Urban Jungle, but only once—in the 20 Things line—have we visited the actual jungle. In the first run-through of the Wilderness Dressing line back in the early 20...

We’ve all got that player. The player who thinks you know EVERYTHING about your setting. They’ll ask for a detailed breakdown of all the gods even though they are playing a fighter. They’ve n...

Meanwhile, on an Isle or Island…

Last week, we released two Monstrous Lairs—Dragon Turtle Lair and Castaway’s Camp—to complement Wilderness Dressing: Isles & Islands. This week it’s the main event, with the af...
