In the Shadow of the Crown a Caer Callidyrr Story

Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

Summer is busy in Caer Callidyrr, the Moonshae’s largest and most colorful city. Four factions rule the streets, docks, and court of law silently under the leadership of Queen Alicia Kendrick. From the reckless sportsman’s club to the mysterious cabal of wizards in a city that fears magic, life goes and moves with great certainty. The citizens fear the ever present fey and threats of their own invention.

They should fear something else, disappearances and strange creatures just out of sight have begun to lurk in the city at all hours. Something from an age more savage and violent than the current one wishes to resume its primacy in chaos and sacrificial blood. Secrets are kept in the halls of power, while the dead rise to serve to hate the world yet again. Quietly, the Lord of the Hunt wishes to make the people of Callidyrr his quarry.

What can some soccer hoolligans, happy dogs, The Fisherman’s Guild of rogues, or the Queen’s intelligence service do to stop this threat that dares overtake the city by the Midsummer festival? Only the players can make the difference, by making alliances and discovering the secrets that threaten to unravel the peace and prosperity of the city of the High Queen.

In this module, the DM will find

  • A gazetteer of the city covering all manner of things from law and order to pastimes in the public houses.
  • 10 separate faction quests that follow the 3 main plot quests.
  • A monster compendium containing all the villains necessary to run the adventures, plus 4 unique monsters like the peat stained Bog Wights or the legendary Murphy’s Ghost.
  • 4 brand new feats unique to the city of Callidyrr, perhaps handy in other worlds as well.
  • 8 unique magic items from the antler Crown of Dimlor, and Lieutenant Hawson’s Haunted hat.
  • 19 maps for each of the quests.

 

Dare your adventurers brave the dark streets and frigid bogs of Caer Callidyrr?

The Triboar Monster

Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

The Violet Hour is an establishment that was founded by Violet Petals fifteen years ago. A former and seasoned monster hunter herself, Violet established the agency as a means for people to harness her unique skills in tracking and eliminating monstrous threats. However, her days of frontline combat were curtailed when she took an arrow to the wing, leaving her unable to directly engage and conquer the creatures she once pursued.

Case #3 The Triboar Monster

The creature haunting the Tribor Trail boasts a striking appearance. It stands as a bipedal mammal with spindly, almost chicken-like legs that culminate in pointed hooves. Its most distinctive features include a pair of bat-like wings sprouting from its back, a goat-like head crowned with a single, twisted horn, and an uncanny habit of emerging unexpectedly from the shadows, instilling an aura of eerie fascination among those who’ve glimpsed it.

September 26, 2023: In Praise Of USBs

I was cleaning out a box of adapters and computer parts the other day, and I came across myriad USB cables from bygone eras. Curious, I plugged one unusual device in . . . and it worked. If I wanted an IDE-to-USB adapter to muck with any ancient hard drives, I now have a decent prospect.

It got me thinking how amazing the humble USB port is. The USB 1.1 specification that sparked off the widely adopted USB era came out in August 1998, so the technology is just over a quarter-century old. And it’s remarkably robust; if I needed to use a decades-old USB keyboard, printer, or memory card, the same rectangular port that enabled the gear to work last millennium still works fine (or, at most, is an adapter away). Any such device almost certainly won’t be fast, but it has better-than-average odds of the computer going, “Ahh, I haven’t seen one of these since the Y2K era . . . but I still know what to do with it.” Then the computer gets nostalgic. And you get nostalgic, and start digging around the office junk drawer for that Tamagotchi you last remembered seeing there a few years back. (And by “you,” I 100% mean “me.”)

The decades-old intercompatibility of USB triumphs over the earlier years of the computer era, where every new ecosystem seemed to proliferate a new wave of cables and devices that were quite probably not going to play well with your old stuff.

Perhaps even more amazing is the fact that USB has become a near-universal power specification, recharging and giving life to any number of gadgets and gizmos. This miracle stands in stark contrast to the other box of mystery power bricks and adapters I’ve accumulated over the years.

USB is not without its quirks; for example, the inability for any human to insert a standard rectangular USB cable in the correct orientation on the first try is basically a cliché at this point. But it’s certainly refreshing to rediscover some bit of once-loved gear in my closet collection coming back to life with the insert of a humble plug.

Simiae: Wise Guardians

Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

Title


Today on September 24th, it is World Gorilla Day. To celebrate our ape cousins, I’d like to present a new player species set in the world of the Forgotten Realms. Delve into the mystical realm of the Simiae, born from humble ape origins but now evolved into intelligent beings These towering, fur-covered creatures with an extraordinary connection to nature have transcended their past, standing tall as protectors of the natural world. As you embark on your adventures in the Forgotten Realms, consider playing as the Simiae and uncover the mysteries of their ancient forest homes while upholding their sacred duty as guardians of the wild. The Simiae await, ready to bring a unique and immersive experience to your D&D campaigns.


Simiae Characters

As a Simiae, you embody the enduring legacy of the Spellplague’s transformative embrace. Your existence is a testament to the mystical ties that bind you to the very heart of nature’s secrets, a connection forged in the crucible of evolution. The primal essence of the forest flows through your veins, a constant reminder of your origin and unyielding devotion to the guardianship of the natural realm. Every stride you take resonates with the ancient rhythms that intertwine your fate with the woodlands you call home, binding you to their history, their present, and the enigmatic future they hold. In the wider world, your presence stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit that defines your journey as a Simiae.

Simiae Traits

Ability Score Increase. Your Strength score increases by 2 and your Intelligence score increases by 1.
Age. Simiae age at a much slower rate than their gorilla ancestors, and don’t reach maturity until 50 years. The maximum age of Simiae is unknown, but the oldest of them that experienced the Spellplague have yet to show any sign of old age, and the best of their own estimates projects their life expectancy to be around 850–1000 years.
Size. Simiae can range between 6 and 8 feet tall, weighing from 400 to 700 pounds. Your size is medium.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet, and you have a climbing speed of 20 feet.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and Simian.

Deadly Strength. Your incredible strength makes you particularly dangerous to engage in combat. You can add your proficiency bonus to damage rolls for your melee attacks.

Natural Camouflage. You

Ras Nsi with the Ring of Winter

Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

Ras Nsi is fallen member of the Barae, a powerful group of paladins that worship and serve Obtao. He was infamous for seeking bloody and violent revenge against the Eshowe tribe of Chult and for the creation of the majority of the undead that roam that land. In the Tomb of Annihilation, he is in a weakened form due to the Death Curse.

In my campaign he survived and managed to acquire the Ring of Winter, a powerful artifact that gives creatures dominion over the cold. Contained within is the stat block of an end-game Ras Nsi battle, balanced for players in the fourth tier of gameplay. Additionally, a battle map of his inner palace is included as part of this product.

All Aboard for the Deadlands: Night Train 25th Anniversary Boxed Set

In just two weeks’ time, Tuesday, October 3rd, Spooky Season officially begins ’round these parts with the launch of a new Kickstarter Booster in support of the 25th Anniversary of John Goff’s legendary Night Train for Deadlands: the Weird West!

The Night Train creeps along the cold steel rails of the Weird West, pulling in after dark to unleash its hellish cargo of starving, feral vampires upon unsuspecting towns.

For decades Night Train has terrorized game conventions and haunted tabletops. What will you do when its deathly whistle blows? Can your posse survive the onslaught? Many others have tried—most have failed!

This Kickstarter brings John Goff’s malevolent masterpiece back into the moonlight, fully updated for Savage Worlds Adventure Edition and boasting gorgeous new art and a boxcar of incredible accessories to bring the fun to life (or unlife, as the case may be).

If you’ve never played Night Train, this is your chance to hop aboard! If you’ve ridden these wretched rails before, you’ll find all-new extras that make this the definitive experience.

The Night Train 25th Anniversary Boxed Set contains:

🦇 A 72-page book with the original Night Train adapted for Savage Worlds, its sequel For Whom the Whistle Blows, an all-new adventure, The Bank Job from the master himself, and a special afterword featuring John Goff’s notes and memories celebrating this legendary adventure.
🦇 Full-color pawns for an army of creepy bloodsuckers, the innocent townsfolk they wish to feed on, the villains trying to capitalize on the carnage, and the hellish Night Train itself so its locomotive and cars can roll down the tracks of any Deadlands battle map… or get combined with other train cars as we add them!
🦇 Two double-sided fold-out maps, featuring the three rail towns featured in the book and a connecting spur where a posse can catch up to the train (or where the villains might camp to admire their handiwork). The maps can be placed side-to-side to make new towns or extend the rails for even bigger, bloodier action.
🦇 Six dangerous new Archetypes to send to the slaughter instead of your regular heroes.
🦇 Four Wanted Posters. The towns along the rails have plenty going on before the mythical Night Train makes its fateful stops. Law dogs have a chance to collect bounties or see that justice catches up to these outlaws, one way or
