There is something wonderful about the notion of Slothjemia. There have been a few people that have played campaigns in Slothjemia that have compared it (favorably, I would hope) to America, but that analogy isn't entirely accurate or deserved. But it is a place in which folks that are cast out of otherwise decent countries, … Continue reading The Enduring Allure of Slothjemia

First Time?
It was way back in 1989 when I first took a shot at playing Dungeons and Dragons. More specifically, it was AD&D 2nd Edition. Nerds adore specificity, you know. Anyway, the first game master was my high school chum and college roommate, Bernie. It was my first time trying D&D, so we enlisted the help … Continue reading First Time?
Watch that First Lich, it’s a Doozy
When Manfriedreich I was first given his noble title, and placed in charge of a small county in the swamps of the Coreland, it was done under the auspices of the once powerful Diosian Lodge. This collection of insidious undead warlords needed somebody that could help shore up the waning influence of a particularly wicked, … Continue reading Watch that First Lich, it’s a Doozy
Writing Update
After much lollygagging and a delightful weekend of shirking, we are pleased to announce that "The Governor-General's Oath" is now edited within an inch of it's life.

Something Ain’t Right About Him…
In the small, fortified city of Summit Village, there is a person quite unique in the realm. Often referred to as the "Red Devil" or the "Sprocket King", his name is actually Charlier Tasanova. Hailing from this same town as his ancestors, Charlier is handily the most cheerful dwarf one could ever hope to encounter. … Continue reading Something Ain’t Right About Him…
Religion in Slothjemia’s World
Anyone familiar with Dungeons & Dragons is probably aware that when it comes to religion, the game steers people away from current theologies with a vigor generally used to avoid being gored by a bull in Pamplona. They even go so far as to promote long-dead polytheistic religions, suggesting that ancient mythological deities such as … Continue reading Religion in Slothjemia’s World
Twitch & Co.
That closes out the only book about Twitch that has yet been completed. As always, we are interested in what you, the intrepid reader, thinks about the material presented here. Did you enjoy the tale? What would you have liked to see more of? How about less of? Less of everything, you say? Smart aleck. … Continue reading Twitch & Co.
Book Two!
We are pleased to announce the title for the second book in the Grundoon series. There was some trepidation that the title would give too much away, but then it was realized that nobody knows what in the hell I am talking about regardless. So here, in brilliant homemade signage, we present: Look for … Continue reading Book Two!
Howling to the South
There is a grievously popular trend in fantasy fiction these days, wherein vampires are at war with werewolves. Yes, that's cute. Reduce all of humanity to being bit players in a chess game between two powerful, supernatural evils alternately cast as the bad guys and the not-quite-as-bad guys. Throw in a fistful of glitter, and … Continue reading Howling to the South
Custom Signage
One of my Christmas gifts this year was this little sign set. I can't remember any gift that has brought me this much pure delight. I post movies for my daughter every week on the Facebook (we share a love of MST3K), and now I can make a sign for each one, too. Something about … Continue reading Custom Signage
