When third edition came out for Dungeons and Dragons, I remember my players started making their own magic items and mundane items almost right away. As the game aged and players started looking to min max everything, craft was one of the first skills dropped in favor of advancing others like spot or diplomacy. Well last night I was thinking in my Pathfinder... [Read more of this review]
The best part about RPGs is when the players in your game start to get involved and add content. My home game world is really a mishmash of stuff I dreamed up and whatever my players threw into the mix to help make the game world make sense. One of my old players ran a campaign about ten years back where he created a flyer for a band called the One... [Read more of this review]
Now for my giants den. This a image I built from stock photos in Photoshop. It is for another quick Pathfinder RPG adventure I am creating for Winter War. I needed a den out in the swamp, by the town of Kingleaf, so I drew this out from some Images I pulled together from Ireland. An old castle (left) and a rock shelter (right). I think every giant den... [Read more of this review]
I was digging through my old game notes and I found one of my early campaign maps. This is from 1999-2000, it shows my Forgotten Realms and Warcraft 2 influences in my earlier games. Lake Surma is there and my tortoises wandered in the fog of the marsh, named The Marsh, before I created Jerren. Dalaran eventually became Port Headland and the River Surma...

Officially founded in JY 905, Kingleaf was an old Brunari fort on the northern edge of the Green Forest. The name of the original fort is now forgotten and the forest is has receded miles to the south. People say the dragon, Surma, just looked at the forest and it started backing away from the lake. Many of the original barracks used while the people... [Read more of this review]
I am building a couple new towns in Alidor and a google search for towngen led me to a very well thought out little pdf article called Village and Town Generator By Kory M. Kaese and Allison E. Kaese. It is a two pager “designed to assist the game master or player with creating a medieval village and/or town.” Making a town for an RPG can... [Read more of this review]
Vesna is a local of Kingleaf. She was found unconscious in a cranberry bog northeast of town. The Gables, cranberry farmers who managed the bog where she was found, took her in as a third addition to their small family. She stayed with the family until see reached the age of 18, then she moved into town and began work as barmaid at the Cat and the King... [Read more of this review]
This is an updated map of Central Jelling. I added a bunch of little villages and towns that were just dots on the original Jelling map. Since I am running a new Pathfinder game I thought I would start in a new area on my maps. I chose Kingleaf and I am presently detailing the area around Kingleaf. Bimnok Keep is a gnomish settlement. I noticed the... [Read more of this review]
