The abishai are Tiamat's personal devils. The black ones are super stealthy, 8 ft (2.4 m) tall, and can create clouds of magical darkness! Since we know nothing of personality I'm assuming it's like the black dragon they're based on, which means clever and cruel. and also that the females take initiative.

Sidenote: these things got a HUGE glowup in 5e. They used to be just weird horned guys with Challenge Rating between 4 and 8 depending on color. Now? They're cool dragon demons with CR from 6 to 19!

Welcome to Ioun City

Tonight’s Band of Blades game wasn’t going to happen and so I sent something about rival thieves’ guilds at war. I posted three Dyson Logos maps and we chose this one: We decided the city’s big money-maker is the polishing, charging and activation of Ioun Stones in the 3 arcane-industrial castles. Each castle is held by a different faction who, all together, sell the Ioun Stones through a…

Systems, trailers, & expectations around D20's Burrow's End

The release of Dimension 20’s 20th season trailer for Burrow’s End caused a bit of a stir on TTRPG Twitter, and I just want to unpack it a little bit. The main tension lies within Dimension 20’s choice to continue to put out shows that use D&D 5e as its system (though often with homebrewing and hacks). The trailer’s tone is less comedic than most seasons, starting with a solemn voiceover by GM…

Here is a very old shot of a thing we would do. With Pathfinder, a lot of bonuses don't stack and it becomes important to keep proper track of these things. You can keep track of your own well enough but when you're running with a group of 5 players or more... yeah. So, we did this, we write out most used spells and their effect down and put it infront of us, facing the table. The idea is that this kinda stuff would be visible on our characters by magic anyway and this was just a player way to see it without asking every round.

The Forgotten Gem of 5e: The Mythic Odysseys of Theros

Time to dip back into some D&D with 5e's forgotten gem... The Mythic Odysseys of Theros!

In the summer of 2020, to little fanfare, Wizards released a new Magic the Gather setting port to 5e Dungeons & Dragons. Events at the time conspired to bury this review, banishing it to the back-burner of articles. Today that changes. It’s time to dip back into D&D now and look at one of its most overlooked Magic the Gathering ports… Mythic Odysseys of Theros. Let’s dive in! Continue reading…

The world is Talhith, a memory of what the world once was. Ages ago, the world began to flood, cities fell from the sky, and gods of this old world died. People from all over the world did what they could to survive in this world, the most popular of which was building what is now called a Shard.

Shards are homes built by generations of families trying to remain above the water as it continued to flood the the world. The tips of these Shards are all that can be seen now remaining as another danger for sailors to navigate and an archeological mystery for adventurers to explore. It is unknown what remains, but nearly every expedition has reveled horrors being contained only by the sea.

Urith is the largest continent, its capital city is Towersend. There are many factions and important people that call this continent home and many of them are at odds with each other. The terrain in the north is full of forests and hills. As you get more south you run into the Bog of The Twin Moon’s, a place many deem cursed as it is home to more monsters than men. Going east you can ride through the mostly uninhabited plains that the fallen city of Buelstone lies. Going further east you get to the Giants home mountain, Stormwind Peaks and the floating city Panuu. Going even further you get to the last forest of Urith, until you eventually cross the border into Trorn.

Trorn, commonly referred to as The Horns is the Tiefling homeland, and the lowest elevation found in Talhith. It’s ruler, Zepar Lust, the Ichor Father rules this land with an iron fist. However in recent years they seem to be doing more outreach. Trying to right wrong of the past even though they remain an extremely guarded state. It is defended by the volatile Devil’s Anguish that has lava and poisonous gases that prevent most anyone from crossing over by land.

Ibor was the great home of the now destroyed Purple Dragons Knights. They were soldiers of legend until they eventually sacrificed themselves to defend the world from a great evil. Now it is a shattered wasteland of ravines, and tribes of people fight for what little resources remain.

Gullura is the Elven homeland. It’s captital city, Cynore, has elements of this fae ancestry while also being very coastal. Most buildings are made out of lime and sandstone.

Rotsen is the Dwarfen stronghold. It is the banking and trading hub of the world. In the center of the island is a volcano that powers all of the forges. It is said this volcano was the child of Dwarf and Elf who could not conceive so they combined their magics to create a child made of stone. Soon after the parents argued constantly. The child, feeding of this anger grew to the size of the volcano and nearly destroyed everything before it was put to sleep.

Eagekul is a tropical, forest land home to more of the outsiders of the world. The Istoye forest is the largest fae forest in the world, the Gorge of the Ancients is home to many gearforged.

There is obviously many more place to talk about, and many more yet to be explored. I welcome all questions about this world and the places in it!

Le jardin d'Adompha {Idées rôlistes}

Coucou mes p’tites patates botanistes! Venant d’apprendre qu’une nouvelle édition de The Gardens of Ynn, de Emmy Allen, chez Soulmuppet publishing sera prochainement en financement participatif, cela m’a fait me remémorer un très court texte par l’incroyable Clark-Ashton Smith, dans une vieille anthologie de Weird tales, le Jardin d’Adompha. J’étais très jeune lors de sa lecture, mais en douze…

The Abishai are Tiamat's personal devils, this being the middle of the pack! They're about 7 ft (2.1 m) with magic specializing in illusion, fear, and mental domination. These telepathic devils are diplomats and spies, taking after thier green dragon counterparts with thier wit and charisma.

I used to play a Chaos Space Marine army. While I had at least 2 squads of the special units like Khorne Berserkers or Rubrics, I played a mostly Nurgle themed army. I would have Typhus and his termi-bro's drop in while sacred number squads slug forwards. Covered by the battlecannon of a Defiler and the lascannons of an Obliterator squad. I was never very good at the game.

Diversity in Paizo's Pathfinder

Pathfinder. I’ve talked about some of their work over the last few years, with reviews of its Lost Omens: Mwangi Expanse and Travel Guide books, and a few episodes of Lore Diver. [1][2][3][4] Broadly, these have been positive, so it’s probably time to talk about how this evolution of 3.5e D&D has handled representation and how their approach has positioned them ahead of their rivals over at…
