Long ago when I first came across the details of the Knights of Solamnia, I was immediately intrigued. Here was a lavishly intricate hierarchy for a system of lesser nobles that was perfect for any game setting requiring a group of armed, determined, and heroic leaders to see society through difficult times. As presented in … Continue reading Borrow an idea, improve it, and set it free

An Act of Unspeakable and Unprovoked Evil (less than 20 minutes of pure carnage)
The old adage that runs "an ancient evil long forgotten can prove to be the most disastrous" was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt when the Diosian Lodge reached out from their fetid, unholy realm and struck a blow against Fanolania through the horrific power of one of their own, the Viceroy, as he … Continue reading An Act of Unspeakable and Unprovoked Evil (less than 20 minutes of pure carnage)
Common Cause
There are precious few things that unite the various nations of the continent, and that includes the largely impotent international influence of the Church. One of the most effective forces that holds the most powerful states together is the Council of Schönbrunn. The major powers of Geldenreich, Fanolania, and Lusatia founded this somewhat informal alliance … Continue reading Common Cause
Infamous Villains: the Viceroy
The Diosian Lodge is hardly the terrifying powerhouse of political and military intrigue that it was immediately following the fall of the last Imperium, and yet it does find ways to meddle in the affairs of it's neighbors, and even more distant states. Rarely is this manifested by one of the lich lords themselves, or … Continue reading Infamous Villains: the Viceroy
What else has this Dame starred in?
One of my favorite things to do is to cross over characters from our D&D games into the nerd fiction I write, and take some of those characters that I created in nerd fiction and cross them over into my D&D games. And rarely, I like to include some of the more memorable player characters … Continue reading What else has this Dame starred in?
It’s Complicated
One of the hallmarks of any D&D game that I have run, and most every story I have written, is that there seems to be an awful lot going on. It is never a straight-forward quest or simple endeavor. Players looking for a "let's go kill an ogre" style game are instead subjected to "let's … Continue reading It’s Complicated
A little Gnome goes a loooong ways
The chaotic and irresistibly festive land of Chute de l'Ombre has it's fair share of oddball people. Nothing less can be expected from a place so heavily populated by gnomes. But every so often a gnome sets themselves apart by virtue of their personality, reckless behavior, or a combination of both. Such is the case … Continue reading A little Gnome goes a loooong ways
Maelonbourg; Under New Management
Events in Maelonbourg (original flag shown to the right) have created quite a stir in the western portion of the Wenigzustand. Colldrenia, the malicious and craven woman that usurped the power of the rightful king and ushered in an age of violent chaos had been killed by an intrepid band of adventurers. Her castle demolished … Continue reading Maelonbourg; Under New Management
Notable NPCs; Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler
Readers might recognize the description of Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler as fitting that curious band of powerful villains from the "Dragonlance" stories and the D&D gaming world of the same name, the fallen heroes known as "Death Knights." In many ways these fellows can be loosely described as being Darth Vader-ish in both appearance and mannerisms; … Continue reading Notable NPCs; Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler
Monarch’s Updated
The former kings of Slothjemia section has been updated to include Manfriedreich IV, the father of the current Empress, Reichsha. Sometime in the not too distant future she will also be added to the list. It should be noted that virtually all of the D&D games we played in college took place during the reign … Continue reading Monarch’s Updated
