For those attending the Origins Game Fair over the weekend, you can mosey on down to Tabletop Adventure’s booth (#422) and purchase a copy of the Codex on CD-ROM (includes the color PDF Codex in both screen and print resolution formats and all 112 One Page Codex entries) for just 5$. The CDs look awesome and makes for a great, crash proof and portable reference!
Of Sorrowful Villainous Shrikes and Losing Encumbrance
Way back when, I used to write these short posts (yeah, Pffft!) where I would mix and match various cool things I’d seen on the web or to update people on things I had been doing. I thought it would be a good time to do one now.
Chatty’s 800th: Missed Opportunities and Future Projects
In this, my 800th post, I take a hard look at Wizards of the Coast’s Heroes of Hesiod, and its missed opportunity to tap into the tremendous potential of helping parents introduce kids to roleplaying. And I put my money where my mouth is . . .
Friday Chat: Don’t be boring! A Real D&D Insider Pitch
levator Pitch: The PCs are on their way to meet the monarch of a peaceful land when they discover the half-buried body of a gigantic elemental noble where the king’s castle should be. As the colossal primordial pulls itself out of the ground and starts to walk away, the PCs realize that the castle is within the creature, and their only chance to recover it is to go inside its body. While inside, they must break several rituals that hold the castle in the creature’s chest before it can walk to a nearby ley-line and return to the Elemental Chaos.
Lost Badgers and Kid Guards

Fall Seven Times, Stand Up Eight
I find it interesting that I made the exploration of failure in RPGs such an intense interest of mine because I’m currently living with the consequences of failure in my own life right now. Don’t worry, nothing major, but important enough that it may affect “The Plan” if I don’t play my cards more carefully from now on.
On 4e Adventures: Part 1, Third Parties and the Freelance Writer
I’m a very instinctive type of guy, and lately my gut feeling has told me that some 3rd party publishers of 4e adventures have left the boat (or are thinking about doing it). For instance, I learned yesterday that Joseph Goodman of Goodman Games has been musing online about adding Pathfinder support to his DCC […]
Chatty’s Goals for 2010
Happy new year people! New year, new ‘decade’ (hush, pedants) and possibly new pants! As is becoming a tradition on Musings, this is when I look over last year’s goals and set new ones. I say goals and not resolutions because resolutions are all about ‘have to, and should, and ought to” and I have […]
Chatty’s Year 2009 and the Importance of the Tribe
Yes, Yet another Year End Post. I’m sure the RPGbloggers network‘s first page must crumble under that Echo Chamber effect. But I don’t quite care about that. 🙂 The Year in Review Oh man what a year. Last year you could taste the the first signs of the rapid unraveling of my mind in my […]
Chasing the Dream: Chatty Moves One Step Closer…
A few weeks ago I wrote a very personal post about the state of me and what I wanted to do with my still nascent writing life. In that article, I posted a list of what I wanted to do in the short to mid term to achieve my ultimate goal: becoming a writer that […]
