Area 3

The graveyard of the mausoleum is watched over by a large stone statue representing the raven-winged Goddess of Death.


Creature: This statue has a dual purpose to also keep out grave robbers. If anyone within the statue's senses starts to dig up any of the graves in the graveyard, it animates and walks over to the offending party with the intent of attacking. Any grave robbers who leave the graveyard will not be pursued, as the statue is designed to stay within the boundaries of the graveyard. After chasing off or executing any offenders, the statue makes a vigil around the perimeter of the graveyard before returning to its starting post.

The statue does not animate or attack anyone who is casually visiting the graveyard or the mausoleum. It is only purposed to attack those who attempt to dig up the graves. So long as they leave the grave sites alone, the PCs will not have to deal with the animated statue.

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...
