Wilds - Brute Squad? No Brute-Bridge!

After a fiery introduction the party has taken the initiative, for now, from the shaggy foes. Will the group follow Raúguey's bold leap into the next hall, or will they die of smoke inhalation? Let's find out!

Tile of the Week #2

The latest Tile of the Week entry. This is a more random-dungeon style entry, with several secret passages, a nice slime-room, and a large, fancy room with lots of pillars, statues, and fountains/pools.

TiddlyWiki 5 - How Does This Work?

A few years ago, I wrote a two part tutorial on using TiddlyWiki (part 1 and part 2). Time marches on, and there's a new version of TiddlyWiki available in beta form, TiddlyWiki 5.

Nameless Coast - An Update (of sorts)

No, I didn't give up on this project. I've been working out how exactly I'm going to be mapping this out, and my first snag was applying some sort of coordinate system to the map.

After messing with other hex tools I finally bit the bullet and did it the old-fashioned way. 2500 hexes later...

Wilds - A Brief Backgrounder

By request, here's some of the background on my Wilds game. It's fairly brief, because this game was proposed as a dungeon crawler, so there wasn't great need for world-building. This post covers local geography and the main population centers nearby.
