I was watching one of those famous sunsets while I was waiting for the Mule to come back. I saw the spot in the sun. I thought it was a bug. My gut knew what it was.

Some of the names of locations & faiths are from Midian, but these are easily changed to fit different campaign settings.

There are a lot of bad people out there. That is why we must torture you: to keep you safe.

Many and varied are the ways of extracting a confession or ending a criminal's life, and the one usually follows the other.

This is a quartet of low-magic rings that can be used separately or as a set.

"Gak! Cough! I just swallowed a bug."

This random-roll chart is designed for those times when a player unexpectedly misses a game session. What is their character doing while everyone else is out on an adventure?

No nose, hardly any body, a terrible wine, really.

Fear ye not the sorcerer's might / for ye be wreathed in Baunumdraung's light!
