You could have a city where everyone died suddenly, turned into undead by a blast of negative energy, and go through their daily routines mindlessly as if they were still alive. They just repeat whatever task they were doing when they died endlessly, but will randomly attack a passerby...

For the campaign I am working on, the Last Lands, I essentially have the remnants of a Europe and Middle East that has been destroyed by a series of quakes and tsunamis, the greater part of the continent sinking under the ocean. So I have cities based on Greece, Italy, Germany, Egypt, France...

Only taller...

Make them loggers instead of miners and carpenters/woodworkers instead of smiths. Give them some type of gift for growing things and a deep knowledge of the soil and woodland creatures. Let them ride deer or mountain goats and hunt with spears and short-bows...

Noted. But this is not something I see coming up often and would be temporary, the caster just has to spend some time researching a fix to any spells learned wrong. So, say you learn six spells from your copy of the book. You make a translation check for each one, failing to learn one spell...

So, just jotting down ideas. I am think I need a table of casting side effects. If you do not learn the spell "correctly" you in effect learn to miscast it. If this happens you have to deal with the side effects until you do enough spell research to re-learn the spell without errors. Perilous...

Call of Cthulhu has rules for tomes that state that different versions of a book will have slightly different stats. I am thinking if a spell is learned "wrong" it may have a side effect when you cast it or an item that is made wrong my come out cursed. So the user of the tome has to be very...

This needs to become a national chain and spread to SoCal so I can go there...

So I have an idea of an ancient tome of magic spells that has been repeatedly re-translated, censored, edited and miscopied over and over. So the spells and instructions for creating magical items held with any particular copy may be faulty. I want there to be chance that using spell or magic...

Shall we tweak them a little for a fantasy setting? Throw some medical terminology in there too, to make it really gross. "You despoiler of virginal rust monsters!" "You ambulatory intestinal blockage from the bowels of a obese Tarrasque!"

The finished first draft, with no art, is about 60 pages. I am thinking about converting it, maybe even to multiple versions like PF and 5E, but I am not up on those rules, so I would need an editor who can help do that. By that time that gets done, with my luck, WOTC will announce an upcoming...

So, the crux of the issue is #1, how do you stat "genetically identical" in game terms, and #2, how much drift can you get from the base with each level? I think the simplest way to do this is to just start the characters at level 1 with the same base attribute scores and develop the characters...

This show is brilliant. You can see all of the first two seasons for free on Youtube. Here are some clips and the Wikipedia entry. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=brpr5W7POjM&list=PLvMGq_h9khwW1hpaKS1jrhM_O9cWUywux&params=OAFIAVgC&mode=NORMAL...

I have written one actual book, a short supplement for 3.5E Paladin variants. Problem was, before I could finish it, 4E came out and made it obsolete. Writing a whole book solo seems to be a Sisyphean task...

The show Orphan Black is a about a girl who discovers she is one of over a dozen clones created as an experiment. She discovers that she has 14 genetically identical "sisters" and they are being hunted by an anti-cloning religious sect. She has to get her surviving sisters to rally together so...

So, when will you be able to quit your day job? How do you balance a day job with writing, editing, and managing sales?

Lean in, work at it. We can make things change...

Indeed, Primus is Order and Balance, things lacking in this world...

So, I think we have enough names of an invitation only all-celebrity campaign. We just need to corral them into playing together at a convention...

Okay, but which pantheon and which gods would really resonate with you personally?
