Dungeon23, January Day 14



Area 14

Read aloud text:


The closed door to this cry contains a carved stone fresco of a bald-headed male dwarf with smooth skin and a square beard. The holy symbol of the fiery aspect of the Forge God is worn around his neck.


Thainarv Hardcloak was a dwarven cleric who fell in battle and was interred within. Like the other fallen heroes, the wards to his crypt are broken, and his body and effect were removed by the evil cult.

Inside the crypt, the chamber is illuminated by a fresco of the same holy symbol carved into the southern wall. The carving appears to be aflame, thanks to a permanent continual flame spell effect, providing bright light within the entire crypt chamber. The bandits that make their home within this crypt have fashioned a make-shift curtain to pull over the symbol so they can sleep.

Creatures: Two bandits dwell within this crypt.

Treasure: The bandits each carry 5d6 copper pennies in their coin purses. The curtain used by the bandits to cover the continual flame is a cotton rug stitched with silver thread. The runes and symbols on the rug associate it with a demonic cult (revealed with a successful DC 10 Intelligence [Religion] or DC 15 Intelligence [History] check). The 3-ft. x 5-ft. rug weighs 10 pounds and is worth 40 gp.

Transformers One Sourcebook!

Image
Renegade Games Studios just announced the preorder release of the Transformers One rpg sourcebook . https://renegadegamestudios.com/transformers-roleplaying-game-transformers-one-sourcebook I finally get to discuss this project, as I have been under an NDA for the last several months.  Only a week after I originally saw the film, I was contacted by Ben Heisler from Renegade Games Studios asking about my interest in doing some freelance writing for the TF rpg. I could not say "yes" fast enough. Transformers has always been my bag, since I discovered them. I was the perfect age and the absolute target demographic when they were released  in 1984. I was 7 years old and looking for a toy series to follow, as I was forbidden from following my original interest: Masters of the Universe. I had religiously-strict parents, the Satanic panic of the 80s was in full sing, and MOTU had magical and supernatural themes to it, making the show a "no-no" in terms of my being allowed ...

RANGE VIPER THREAT (GIJoe Essence20 rpg)

Image
I've been thinking about a scenario that involves the use of Ranger Vipers from GIJoe. However, looking through the various sourcebooks, Range Vipers have not yet been built as a Threat. As such, here is my Range Viper Threat Build, based on their classic toy card description and their upgraded accessories provided with their GIJoe Classified action figure. If you enjoy this content, please help support my friend Owen with his fight with cancer . Snail Nobra! Regular infantry would come back from a mission with hopes of getting hot meals and shower when they arrive at base.  Range-Vipers  are different. Their barracks is not a four-sided building with a roof, it's out there on the cold hard ground made of whatever makeshift materials they can find. Their meals are whatever edible walking or crawling critter that comes along, and their water comes from the nearest river and stream. They are only provided their uniforms and basic weapons. Whatever else they need they have to hun...
