A few weeks ago, I made a joke about feeling like a Rock Star right after Gen Con. It was a quaint joke and I ran with it here and on Twitter for some time. Pretending to be a Rock Star is probably no worse than an evil Overlord. Well, here’s an occasion to to […]

Kobold Love: Interlude 4: Kicking the Little Buggers Out!
No I’m not quitting Kobold Love. However, seeing that there is recurring confusion about what the project is about, what I expect of people hacking the adventure, my publication plans and so forth, I think a fresh start is in order. Add to the fact that I’m finding that the project is robbing the blog […]
Chatty’s Question: Reactions to your RPG hobby?
1985: I’m in 6th grade and the phone rings at home. My mom picks up and another stay-at-home mom says that she heard her son talk about this new D&D game I’m playing. She warns my mother that kids who play that game have committed suicide. My mother answers that she trusts my judgment and […]
The Top 10 Songs that Should Never be in Rock Band
I’m sure it’s happened to many of you, listening to the radio either in the car or at work and hearing a particular song and thinking, “Damn, this song really should be in Rock Band!” Apparently this happened so much that our friend DrScotto began to reply with simply, “EVERY song should be in Rock […]
Kobold Love: Dungeon Diplomacy! Part 1
Ready to dive into the adventure? As posted in the adventure plan, Scene 1 is about the PCs getting a prophecy and facing opposition against ultra conservative elements of the dungeon before venturing forth on the surface world. When the adventure will be published in its final form, there will be a few paragraph that […]
Thanks to some Gnomes, I have custom sounds
So remember that contest I told you all to enter, where the prizes were custom RPG sounds from World of Twilights Studio? Turns out I won the grand prize. Funny, huh? (I also won a prize in the one-sentence NPC contest, so I guess pimping other people’s contests works.) Well, I’ve been emailing back and […]
Random Thoughts Table: Magic NPCs!
So yeah, as I was chugging along Kobold Love’s 1st scene, I hit a snag with the skill challenge and I needed help ‘debugging it’. Graham ran to the rescue but when we were done, I had 1/2 a post and very little time left for sleep. So I thought I’d share a pair of […]
Kobold Love: Interlude 3, Changing gears
Yeah, at the rate I’m going Kobold Love will be finished by the time Wizards of the Coast publishes 5th edition. More seriously, I have already committed to run play tests of KL at Draconis (Montreal’s gaming Con) in 3 weeks from now. I have to move a bit faster, without killing myself. So I […]
Inq. of the Week: 4th Edition Classes?
We’re finally back on a regular schedule, and temperatures are beginning to drop into that lovely cool – comfortable range (for about a week, that’s how long fall lasts in Maryland), it’s becoming clear that summer is drawing to a close. Last week Dave asked how many of you partake in the monk-like practice of […]
The Life of a Suburban Overlord
Update: I went ahead and created a website for the webcomic. You can find it here. I will update it M-W-F until I grow tired of it or something… My friend Pierre bought himself a iPhone 3G, installed a Comic Book app on it and started posting possibly the first Twitter Webcomic. (He’s going to […]
