Reincarnate is just weird. Come back to life but with a random different body. Remake your character but it is sort of still them at heart. Cosmologically weird and kind of has some social ramifications (really, I'm the dead king back, just in a new different species body, trust me). It...

How many things affect initiative? Dex gives a modifier, surprise gives advantage, the alert origin feat gives another bonus and allows swapping. Anything else?

SJR1 Lost Ships (2e) 2e Death Tyrant: Death tyrants occur spontaneously in very rare instances. In most cases, they are created through the magic of evil beings—from human mages to illithid villains. Some outcast, magic-using beholders have even been known to create death tyrants from their...

There was also the Dungeon Crawl Classics Lankhmar line and the still available Savage Worlds Lankhmar sourcebook and product line.

I prefer it in very limited doses, signet rings for nobles to identify their messages, invitations for a specific party, letters of marque, and such. A general “papers please” default is a more oppressive and autocratic dystopic feel for me that I don’t generally want in my more freewheeling...

SJQ1 Heart of the Enemy (2e) 2e Undead Inaii: (As will be seen in Chapter Four, inaii are the pegasus-like race that live inside the pyramid sun. The fastidious inaii dispose of their dead by tossing them in a debris portal. The vampire transformed some of these inaii corpses into undead...

A thematic reason for clerics to have blunt only weapons. Or they could dress in black heavy armor and be Lawful as they only call balls and strikes.

But a rod of resurrection can bring them back. :)

I nabbed the player's book when it was the deal of the day and I grabbed the hex crawl setting when GM's day started. I figure I will eventually grab the monster book as well. OSE and its Dolmenwood variants are not a system I expect to run, but I love a lot about the B/X system they are based...

The Dolmenwood Campaign Book PDF, the hex crawl setting of the book trio, is also 50% off as one of the big highlighted deals of Gm's day (for the next two days).

I think I read a while back that one of his kids playing a magic user did in game research to create it. I think having something that would leave more loot behind was one of the kid's stated reasons for developing it. In 1e it has a huge area of effect, 1/2" long per caster level cone, but has...
