Pathfinder: Summon Monster VII Unchained

Be sure to check out all the expanded summon monster lists: summon monster I, summon monster II, summon monster III, and summon monster IV, summon monster V, and summon monster VI as well as summon monster VIII and summon monster IX. Summon monster VII is where you start to get crazy powerful. Celestial dire crocodilesContinue reading “Pathfinder: Summon Monster VII Unchained”

Pathfinder: Darkling

With Halloween coming up awfully fast, I thought I would post one of my favorite scary monsters for this week’s Monster Wednesday. This monster is based on “The Gentlemen” from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. If you are not familiar with them, they removed their victim’s heart while the person is alive and unable to scream.Continue reading “Pathfinder: Darkling”

5e: Conjure Elemental

Today we come to what I consider to be the main conjuring spell: conjure elemental. Previously we covered conjure animals, conjure celestial, conjure minor elementals, and conjure woodland beings. Conjure Elemental 5th-level conjuration Casting Time: 1 minute Range: 90 feet Components: V, S, M (burning incense for air, soft clay for earth, sulfur and phosphorusContinue reading “5e: Conjure Elemental”

SW: Lizardfolk Mud Zombie

Earlier this year, one of our editors proposed converting one of our Deadly Delve adventures to one of the many OSR rules sets. Figuring why not give it a try, we choose Reign of Ruin and choose Swords and Wizardry as the rules to take. Its a solid game supported by a company that weContinue reading “SW: Lizardfolk Mud Zombie”

Pathfinder: Summon Monster V Unchained

We are now officially half way through the summon monster lists and this is where expanding the list of creatures to summon changes from a “want” to a problem that needs to be addressed. If you have not seen our previous expanded lists, check out summon monster I, summon monster II, summon monster III, andContinue reading “Pathfinder: Summon Monster V Unchained”

Traveller: Paskrin

Last week was TravellerCon/USA. If you enjoy Traveller and couldn’t make it this year, I hope you can join us next year. It is a fun time and glad to see everyone again. I have been ignoring Traveller lately, an oversight which I plan to correct starting today. Since I post a monster every WednesdayContinue reading “Traveller: Paskrin”

5e: Draugr

The way we present Fifth Edition monsters and NPCs these days is a quite standardized for us, but that was not always the case. Before there was a 5e OGL, we used the 3.5/Pathfinder’s SRD to make our 5e books. Because of that, we had Deadly Delves: Rescue from Tyrkaven available much earlier than anyoneContinue reading “5e: Draugr”

Pathfinder: Summon Monster III Unchained

Today we share with you the third in our Summon Monster Unchained series. The first in the series can be found here, and the second in the series is here. It is about this time I should point out several omissions from this list. For those wanting a more Asian-influenced game will not find theContinue reading “Pathfinder: Summon Monster III Unchained”

13th Age: Befouled Air Elemental

If you haven’t played the 13th Age Roleplaying Game, you really should. It is a solid take on Fourth Edition of Dungeons and Dragons that focuses on the best parts and leave the less fun parts to the wayside. Not only that, it is designed with great and important people in the world and yourContinue reading “13th Age: Befouled Air Elemental”

Pathfinder: Lizardfolk Sorcereress

Today we don’t so much bring you an NPC instead of a monster. With next month seeing the 5e and Swords and Wizardry versions of the Pathfinder/13th Age adventure Deadly Delves: Reign of Ruin, I’m sharing with you one of the NPCs from that dungeon. I know spellcasters take longer to create than martial typesContinue reading “Pathfinder: Lizardfolk Sorcereress”
