Tantrum of the Damned
There is no word in the English language that invokes more terror than "Tantrum."

This can be problematic for a Game Master for a number of reasons, and I'd like to take some time to nail … Continue reading Somebody Turn Off the Damned Dragon Generator!
In the Court of the Ascending God
Callidus Magna sat upon his heavily bejeweled golden throne with the luxurious ermine covered cushion. He did not have to shift and adjust for comfort, although he held a golden scepter in his left hand while his right hand rested motionless on the armrest next to a small ornate table upon which sat his equally … Continue reading In the Court of the Ascending God
