It has once again been a long time since I’ve touched this series, but I’ve cleared enough other projects to take some time for things I’d like to publish on the DM’s Guild someday. I hope it’s something you (yes, you!) would want to buy. Summer Court | Gloaming Court […]
Oh hey, it’s been a really long time since I’ve touched this series. I’ve done a ton of Planescape reading, between Hellbound and Faces of Evil. There’s enough there that I haven’t really scratched that surface yet, but I’m plowing ahead. That’s the power of CHAOS, baby! Because today, I’m […]
Okay, we’ve moved out of the fey in this discussion of warlock patrons and the Piety mechanic. Sure, 5e canon indicates that some Archfey are outside the Summer and Gloaming Courts, but I’m more interested in covering a lot of different warlocks pretty well than in covering every Archfey warlock […]

We came up with two different takes on the same high concept: a Planescape/Ravenloft mashup. I’m going to discuss both of them a […]
The idea of henchmen NPCs in a D&D party goes all the way back to the earliest games, and was most recently part of official release in D&D 4e. Now, 5e characters are not all that complicated at low levels, but there are still a few more moving parts than one […]
The Aurikesh campaign is set in an early-colonial period, and revolution of various kinds (political, technological, cosmic) is a central theme. Several existing backgrounds touch on ideas of overthrowing the established order and expressions of zeal – the Acolyte, the Criminal, the Folk Hero, and the Hermit all come to […]
I’ve been intermittently writing a series of posts with personality features specific to each nonhuman race, and today I’m covering aasimar (devas if, for some reason, you preferred 4e). Aasimar go back to 2e and Planescape, but didn’t become as central or popular with gamers over the years as tieflings […]
