Time to write a new adventure! Heh. In this case, it was merely a Giant Angry Hogweed (of course). The toxic sap rained down on the PCs after the artificer blew it up.

GURPS Dungeon Fantasy: Exploded giant plant; toxic consequences.

When my brother and I first start playing in 1980, we didn't understand that the dungeon map was meant to be a secret. We played with the map out on the table. Whenever the party walked by a secret door, everyone would roll their d6s until they spotted it. 🤪

In a recent GURPS Monster Hunters session, the witch cast a spell called "Hall of Records" from GURPS Thaumatology: Ritual Path Magic. It's pricy (55 energy), but gives the caster access to the fabled Akashic Hall of Records where they can research almost any topic. (The Akashic Records...

I strongly prefer to use real dice for in-person games. I can't say that I have to use them because there are circumstances where I'll make an exception. Most commonly this happens when I want to roll for something out of an unusual number (e.g., "1 to 7") or, as a GM, when I need to roll for a...

GURPS Dungeon Fantasy: Battling demons upon unholy pillars.

GURPS Dungeon Fantasy: Lightning elemental lord nearly escaped.

I just reread the "Cults and Corruption" section from Serpents of Legend and it is a gold mine of material for a GURPS Dungeon Fantasy adaptation of N1. I'm going to build my cultists using the disadvantage modules under "Cult Personalities" (pp. 48-49) and the "Nightmare Corruption" bit on pp...

GURPS Dungeon Fantasy: Investigating Orlane; assassins at night.

GURPS Monster Hunters: The hunters become the hunted.

Four 300-point PCs (knight, swashbuckler, scout, and wizard). Obviously not the equivalent of 1st level AD&D characters! I had limited time for prep, so I just decided that any members of the cult would have access to "reptile spirit" power-ups. Probably different for each individual to make it...

Excuse the necromancy, but I just ran a GURPS DF (well, DFRPG) session of Cult of the Reptile God this morning. It was a blast!

Dungeon Fantasy RPG (GURPS): PCs shamed by templar bullies.

GURPS Monster Hunters: Gas explosion ostensibly destroys conservatory.

GURPS Monster Hunters (group #2): Spirit spies; exorcism behind diner.

GURPS Monster Hunters (group #1): New Orleans clues suggest Belgium.

GURPS Monster Hunters (group #2): Philadelphia vampires; Pittsburgh enigma ... connected?

Most of my groups don't have formal player roles, but a few people usually take notes. The notes range from mostly objective to in-character, sometimes flowing back and forth depending on the player's whim. We still find them very useful, even when they are entirely in-character. As the GM, I...

GURPS Monster Hunters: Enemy stronger than expected; impasse!

GURPS Monster Hunters: Ritual mishap. Placating motel management.
