As a prelude to opening Chatty Studios (don’t click yet, it will only return you here) and launching Project Kobold Love, I obtained a Creative Commons License for the whole content of my blog (See in blog’s footer).

Nico’s Pick up D&D 4e Game
My 6 year old son Nico and 5 year old daughter Rorie are at their Granny’s for the next 3 days as both Alex and I work and school only starts on Thursday. That means that I won’t have new chapters of Nico’s Quest to share with you. I did however start a D&D 4e […]
The Unauthorized Ascension of the Drow Spy Report
This is my play report of Nicolas Logue’s Ascension of the Drow prequel Mega-Adventure. It was a free-for all, storytelling-intensive D&D 3.5 game featuring 126 players (21 tables of 6) and more than 33 GMs. Everyone was sharing the same game at the same time! It was held at Gen Con and ran from 7h00 […]
Epic Laundry Basket: 4e Vancian Wizards!
Want Vancian Magic in 4e? Here’s how I would do it: Leave at Will-Power as is (for fun purposes). Make level 1 and 2 daily spells into level 3 encounter spells. Shift the whole power list like that to have new spells at every 2 levels. Give level 1 Wizard access to 5 level 1 […]
Chatty’s Bedtime Campaign: Bend it like Nico!
Oh yeah, he was expecting it tonight. As soon as teeth were brushed and pyjamas were worn (i.e. an old T-shirt of mine… Enjoy every second of the time when your kids hero worship you, it won’t last), my little 6 year old Laser Knight was ready to continue his adventures. Chatty: Okay so you […]
One-Sentence NPC contest winners
Way back in late June, Johnn Four and I launched a big contest to get readers from both sites to submit one sentence long NPC descriptions. Summer vacations and Gen Con interfered and the results have been long coming. Well, I’m back and tonight’s post will be to announce the winners and prizes for the […]
Epic Laundry Basket: Console Music Games
I finally Bought Rock Band for the PS2. Start playing Guitar Hero and Rockband at Medium. You’ll thank me later. 21 words.
Gen Con 2008, Lessons Learned
I started Gen Con 2008 with some doubts about my ability to go up to designers and say hi. I’m an extroverted, exceedingly chatty person.. but when I’m not introduced to someone, I clamp up real good. Except, something happened to me somewhere during the second day. Probably during the 126 players chaosfest that was […]
Chatty’s Bedtime Campaign: Nico’s Quest
I have mails to read and posts I planned to do but this… this I have to share with you. 8h15 PM. Nico, my 6 year old son, is playing in his room waiting for me to come and read him a story. As I come into his room, he tells me he’d rather play […]
Epic Laundry Basket: Laser Clerics!
I like Laser Clerics. Like Jeff Rients, I think there should be more lasers in D&D. You disagree? That’s fine with me. Here’s the thing: rules are lies, especially the Fluff! You want a darker, grittier Cleric? Why don’t we just apply Chatty’s patented template of Doom to this ability then? The Evil Eye With […]
