The Royal Bureaucratic Council is led by the Lord High Chamberlain in the Queen's absence. Anytime she is not present for their meetings, it is the task of the Lord High Chamberlain to make sure that the Crown's wishes are conveyed, and acted upon. It is also their job in the royal court to determine … Continue reading Lord High Chamberlain: Keeper of the Palace

Know Your Neighbors: Sikilian Confederation
By anyone's estimation, the Sikilian Confederation is a blight on the world. Handily the most vile collection of loathsome rulers ever gathered in one area, Sikilia is singlehandedly responsible for everyone else thinking that Slothjemia can't be all that bad by comparison. Oh, there are times that you might fuss and fume over goblinoids running … Continue reading Know Your Neighbors: Sikilian Confederation
How Goblins do Steampunk
The world in which Slothjemia sits is one filled with ridiculously goofy inventions designed to do everyday things. A water wheel to power a mill is perfectly ordinary, but perhaps the dam holding back the river is exaggerated beyond reasonable belief. Romillia has her skycruisers, essentially small galleons slung beneath zeppelin-like gas-filled canvas superstructure. Slothjemia … Continue reading How Goblins do Steampunk

Stunning Illustrations, Bordering on Breathtaking
The news that Microsoft is planning to relegate their "Paint" program to being an optional program instead of an integral part of the Windows operating system has been ill-received in these parts. As you can tell from my gorgeous, sensuously artistic renditions of Slothjemian cartography, I am a master at the dance of the pixels. … Continue reading Stunning Illustrations, Bordering on Breathtaking
Microdrakes and Dowarbys
Pseudodragons are not an uncommon sight in the fens of the Coreland, and neither are firedrakes, one of the most well-known species of dragonet. But these clever, and cunning creatures are not what bring naturalists from across the continent to study the wildlife of the swamps. No, the main attractions are the multitude of even … Continue reading Microdrakes and Dowarbys
We used to do that. And now, we don’t.
Slothjemia is surrounded by nations that to one degree or another rely on slavery, in one form or another, to fuel their economies. In Brendelasia, for instance, non-humans are routinely enslaved to work in all manner of physical labor. In Sikilia, most everyone is treated as a slave by the lords of the land, both … Continue reading We used to do that. And now, we don’t.
Jors in Space
People familiar with the AD&D 2nd Edition supplement for "Spelljamming" are immediately aware that this addition to the game can be a tremendous amount of fun. It can also be ridiculously off-balancing to any average campaign. For instance, how quickly players can travel from point A to point B by using a spelljammer. To put … Continue reading Jors in Space
The Wicked Intrusion of Reality
Nothing ruins a good time quite like the realization that in order to pay rent, utilities, and a growing Taco Bell habit, one must function as a "normal person" and work at whatever job one finds themselves in. Churning out endless pages of nerd fiction and waxing poetic on the virtues of pixie society in … Continue reading The Wicked Intrusion of Reality
Spiked Gauntlet; now available in women’s sizes
Reichsha, the Queen of Slothjemia (a.k.a Empress of the Slothjemian Empire, Countess of Boardhum Keep, and Defender of Quality Ciders), is the first female ruler of her nation to date. There was one woman eligible for the role, long, long ago; but she was outmaneuvered by her cagey younger brother and tucked away out of … Continue reading Spiked Gauntlet; now available in women’s sizes
