I concur. I remember the lad who once wore leather sandals to school and was forever after called Moses by his friends. 30 years later he is still Moses. Or the girl who went to the pub wearing a top with leopard spots. Her friend ordered a pint "for Tony the Tiger" and the barman knew who he meant

Basic Roleplaying Creatures comes out this week. I'm not going to say it has all the world's monsters (boom tish) but it sure does have a lot, and these beasts are good to for any @chaosium.bsky.social game you play. My blog post reveals the table of contents: scary monsters, with some super creeps.

New Pendragon Classic material??? It’s like finding the grail!

A perfect moonlit Halloween seeing @realgdt.bsky.social Frankenstein at the Star Cinema Eaglehawk. What a thrill to see a marvelous new version of Mary Shelley’s 200-year-old story in a 125-year-old venue.

Let’s invent a machine that can mimic humans, they said. Won’t that be a boon to humanity, they said. Argh.

Who'd knew that annoying squires would be so popular? My not-serious publication Squires Rampant on the Companions of Arthur community content program for Pendragon has hit Electrum sales. Huge thanks to all who've taken these vexing squires into their care. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...

"The best designed, most attractive, and most effective traditional role-playing game I have ever seen... belongs on every serious fantasy role-playing gamer’s shelf." — Ken Rolston, Dragon Magazine #107. Here's what reviewers said about the Pendragon #TTRPG when it was first released in 1985:

While the fold-out map that comes with Cthulhu by Gaslight is pretty, it's also a tad small to make out all the details. Then I learned Chaosium sells larger ones through their Red Bubble store. Poster sleeve, plexi, or something is needed because that bad boy really wants to roll up on ya.

On a warm Spring night I’m listening to the music of Jawbreaker as played on the cello. While the universal gesture of punk rock is to extend the middle finger, in our senior Gen X years it is also acceptable to occasionally raise a pinky. Our backs hurt. gordonwithers.bandcamp.com/album/jawbre...

STORMBRINGER (1977) Acrylic on Masonite - 30" x 20" I remember trying to get in the mood of painting for the last time the albino sorcerer king, Elric. I took a clothes rail out of a closet for my sword and ran around outside slashing at weeds and lunging at the breeze. 1/5

In which my first Cthulhu game took flight…

My first 3 #TTRPGbox sets: 1. Call of Cthulhu 2. Pendragon 3. Ghostbusters Took us a while to get to D&D! Feels like everything was in a box back then: sort of wish more games were now.

What were your first 3 #TTRPGbox sets, you say? 1. D&D Basic Set 2. Call of Cthulhu 2nd Edition 3. Masks of Nyarlothotep 1st Edition (the one with the matchbox, which I still think is the coolest prop ever.)
