Table Setting #2 - Flora and Fauna of the Wilderness - Flora

Hello Acolytes! As I look out of the window in the Workshop of Doom, summer in the middle country is in full effect, and I am struck by the lushness and overwhelming green. So, as we think about what happens in our players journeys through the landscapes of our worlds, the flora and fauna of those landscapes help add flavor, setting, character and context to our hero's experience. Additionally, these can be used for adventure hooks from alchemists, wizards, and enterprising merchants looking to get their hands on the elusive [insert flora or fauna here]. This will start an ongoing Table Setting series on random tables for Flora and Fauna of the Wilderness, based on wilderness type. Today I present a set of tables and an example list of Flora generated from them. This table set is for generating random Flora for any wilderness type. I will assemble sets of tables for flora and fauna based upon wilderness type so you can easily develop terrain type specific tables for flora, fauna,

Cryptic Cartography #1 - The Azure Tomb of Hemnon III

Since I love maps so much, I thought I would drop some of the old Lead Addicts' own to maps in to the Workshop of Doom. Some will be old school sketches on paper, some will be drawn digitally in Photoshop or Procreate, and maybe an isometric or 3d model or two. I have so many resources and programs for mapping, I think it would be good to explore them so followers can see some of them in action. Up first: The Azure Tomb.

This is the entry to The Azure Tomb of King Hemon III, Last of the Ninians. Once the slab is removed, a set of laid stone stairs descends along a faded blue corridor into the darkness. The Tomb has four chambe

Scuttlebutt #1: What’s happening out there in the RPG World?

Hello fellow tinkerers! This is the first installment of Scuttlebutt. This is just the ole Leadaddict combing through the interwebs, youtube, blogosphere, and any other place there are things happening about RPG’s. I am not an investigative reporter, but I do surf the web too much. So I thought I would collect the things I saw that were interesting and drop a comment and a link to those things for your use. I am going to do this monthly, with anything special happening on an as needed basis. So how about a quick half dozen on the first installment. Scuttlebutt 6/20/2023: Kevin Crawford has dropped a wish list item for me in his weekly updates for his Kickstarter campaign for Cities Without Number, his cyberpunk rules for his …Without Number series of exceptional games. From the update, “I've been reflecting on what to do next after this, and given the repeated queries, I've decided to run a reprint Kickstarter for my Worlds Without Number fantasy game to get another batc
