It has been over a year since I last posted anything to this blog, and it should be fairly obvious to anyone actually reading this that my Polyhedral Dreams came to an end. I still game, though not quite as much as I used to, and I still consider myself somewhat involved in the hobby, […]

Part one of a two-part post by me looking at high-level play in RPGs went live today at Stargazer’s World. In it I namecheck multiple games, such as Nobilis, Amber Diceless, Exalted, Mage: the Ascension and of course D&D Immortals, looking at different aspects of high-level play.

Roland’s player was occupied watching his young niece, so Templar and Kina squared off in a hand-to-hand sparring match. In the first round, as they closed with each other, they rolled matching initiative totals. We interspersed their attacks, but Templar quickly discovered that though he possessed the knowledge and skill to strike vulnerable spots (Mystic […]

The first session of the Immortals campaign began with the PCs waking up to blackness. Their senses returned to them one at a time, and they discovered themselves lying under a starry sky atop a strange, flat floor that shifted and wavered just at the edge of their ability to see (a function of the […]

With a couple projects coming close to fruition, I thought now might be a good time to talk about what’s going on. In no particular order: Resolute, Adventurer and Genius is ready for playtesting. It’s up to me to come up with some kind of adventure to put it through its paces, and plotted adventures […]

I really ought to be working on Resolute, Adventurer & Genius. We’re ready to playtest, and with the addition of some paranormal foes and a GM ideas section the base draft will be finished. I’m feeling a bit burnt out, though, so I’m slowly giving in to an urge that has been building for a […]
