would "everything is a lot" have been a better use of italics? Or, "everything is a lot?" Or maybe staccato emphasis (aka Shatnerian), "Every. Thing. Is. A. Lot."

Sometimes everything feels like a lot. And then you stop and think, wait. . . everything is a lot.

I haven’t gone to a public gaming con since GEN CON in 2007. I did go to Steel City Con in 2019 (mostly comics, cosplay, and celebrity meet and greets) and did one day of NY Comic Con in 2017 (never again). I was hoping to make it to Pittsburgh Gaming Expo this October but when i went to...

This is the way.

I have admittedly not read every single post in this thread very closely, but I did go back and reread the OP and have to wonder when a warlock pact "being a part of the actual fiction of the game" became equated with taking away their powers?

I was just making a list of classic/common monsters that I do not own minis of and umber hulks were at the top of the list. This might be a good occasion to buy and paint some in aquatic colors.

Ooh. I am liking this direction. Maybe fiendish shambling mounds (part of what makes "elemental evil" evil in my homebrew cosmology is the corruption of the elements - which is not mean to be good or evil - by fiendish energy of their planes and from whence the evil elemental princes spawned).

Are there any fiendish creatures that are from a flooded level of the Abyss or the Hells? Not up on my D&D infernal bestiary.

A memory-eating ooze seems more in line with the "Mud Sorcerer Cult" that loves all these ooze and slime and mud, worshiping a syncretic form of Ogremoche and Olhydra, that I have has another faction I am planning to introduce later.

I guess I need to start by looking up what the heck an "oblex" might be. :LOL:

I wasn’t sure which poll choice best fit my approach. I create random encounter tables based on terrain and/or locations. They are mostly used when traveling between places or exploring a specific location unless there are specific encounters that make sense to what is going on that are only...

The evil water elementalist cultists that once made use of this desecrated temple of a local agriculture goddess flooded the lower levels and set loose/summoned some terrible monster down there. Their evil earth cultist rivals have taken over the place, but even then stay away from the flooded...

In my current homebrew setting color coding is an attempt by sages to apply a framework through which to understand dragons that doesn’t actually adhere very well to reality (dragons are mostly thought to be dead or asleep), rather the colors may allude to their lineage but does not necessarily...

Thanks! I don't really do PDFs (except as back-ups to print stuff) and PoD often feels overpriced - but I will definitely check 'em out.

I'd give every registered user on ENworld (approximately) $8500 (unless they are on my ignore list).
