Random table roller is getting weirdly powerful, and I’m loving that. With the recent changes I now have the ability to manipulate table entries. Hmm… I haven’t touched on modifying an entry, or inserting in arbitrary locations. Maybe later. Anyway, what I do now have is the ability to treat …
Yesterday I talked about tables I aim to create for Divine Trappings. I found I’d picked up the easy one, but there are quite a few more elements to consider. Elements not included yesterday… These elements are in several ways more complex than yesterday’s. I’m going to give this some …
I wish I could say this is a list of really good tables. It’s actually a list of the tables yet to be created. Let’s have a quick look. The other day I posted links to the Divine Trappings tables created so far. These are mostly tables that are outside …
As is common, common enough that GreyKnight wrote a post about it, I’m revisiting an earlier post. What are the odds this one will be different? (Hint: pretty good) I’m pretty happy with my descriptions of manifestation building block grades, but they’re not quite there. Happily, I know people I …
One of the most exciting books from the AD&D era, for me, was Manual of the Planes. It expanded wonderfully on the two pages of information in the… Player’s Handbook? Okay, that part never made sense to me. Anyway! Manual of the Planes gave us information about other places that …
While developing Divine Trappings, I’ve created way more random tables that I imagined I would. I expected to have random tables in the domain descriptions. I didn’t expect to come up with so many generic random tables… but they all look useful. Domain Field Tables Still working on it, but …
While working on Icons in the Sandbox, though, I realized a limitation in the polyhedral process that doesn’t much come up when creating pantheons. Even if there are multiple pantheons in a campaign setting, even if those pantheons interact, you can pretty reasonably create each on its own polyhedron and …
Another A-Z Blog Challenge… and another successful completion. Not all my A-Z Blog Challenge attempts are successfully completed, but this one was, and it was my easiest yet. There were a few things that made this one easier than the previous attempts. First, this is a topic that interests me …
Opinions differ on whether I’m actually an old man or not, but I’ll still use this title for a draft of the Air domain. Air … I think I blundered a little with this post. I haven’t drafted a domain in a post for a couple of weeks and didn’t …
(Original working title was “Yeah, That’s Going to be Hard”… but describing the problem, articulating it, basically gave me a solution. Rubber duck debugging wins again!) So, the other day I had an idea for adapting Polyhedral Pantheons to a planar array. It seems simple enough… The last two points …
