I'm in a meeting at the moment half-listening about branding and I started playing around with Neverending Story Room 5 titled "Mouse." I'll try to have this out tonight.
2019-10-31 18:56:56 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
Sorry for no update today. I decided to hit the sack a little early last night. I hope to get most of my day job stuff knocked out today and then work on some posts to be out later. I've got an old list of Halloween monsters that I might convert into PDF format.
Either way, expect something later. Thanks all!

I think I owe, like... 3 rooms for Neverending Dungeon. Two for hitting increments of 10, plus an additional 'cause it's Thursday tomorrow. Note that 3 is a lot of work, so this might not all get done tonight. I may have to do just one. We'll see how fast I get work done today.
I've got one theme picked out for one room, but I need two more.
Here's what I need from you:

Some of you might not know this, but I actually have a day job where I write, too. At that job, I mostly write about Amazon, but I also write about ecommerce in general. Recently, I convinced my direct supe that we should do a series of posts about my DMDave brand and everything I did to get to where I am today.
While it's not directly Fifth Edition related, hopefully some of you will find it interesting. Also, it's done during work hours, so hey—bonus!
Let me know what you thin...

For several centuries the citadel of the Diamond Prince was considered lost until it was rediscovered by a gang of goblins. This Fifth edition one-shot adventure is intended for 3-5 characters of 3rd level. Some of the traps in this dungeon are particularly dangerous—players who charge in expecting an easy romp may find themselves rolling up new characters midway through play.
This adventure references a magic item created by 2019-10-30 14:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
I'm printing the lists tomorrow morning for this month. So if you're looking to upgrade to either get the Platinum rewards (which I'll list this weekend, which will probably be three different things to choose from) or Gold rewards (the physical copy of BroadSword #2), do so before tomorrow morning at 9am CST.
Thanks again all for a great October. I'm proud to announce, too, that I'm currently ranked #8 in the category magazines on Patreon. Couldn't have done it without all of you!

Of all the horrible creations of the Abyss, perhaps there are none worse than the Four Gnolls of the Apocalypse. Under the vile commands of their dark, hyena-headed demon lord, the horsemen appear when gnoll incursions reach their tipping point. Exuding the respective power from which they take their names, these fiends are difficult to destroy. They can often be found at the head of gnollish legions, their whips and barks pushing all gnolls—living, dead, and everything in between—to sate...

My first foray into creating Fifth Edition content was when my players hit the 3rd level of the Lost Mines of Phandelver adventure. After returning to Phandalin following a visit to Cragmaw Castle, the characters discovered the mining village besieged by gnolls. Leading the gnolls were four critters each representing a different aspect of the four horsemen of the apocalypse: war, pestilence, famine, and death.

Welcome to the Neverending Dungeon! The adventure starts when characters wake in a dungeon with no recollection of how they got there. Each room of the dungeon is loaded with traps, monsters, puzzles, treasure, and more. As time goes on, I'll create more and more rooms, building out at least one room per week plus an additional room for every 10 patrons that follow my Patreon account.
You are free to play the dungeon as it lies, or you can take the individual puzzles, traps, and room la...

It's Monday, so it's a big day job day for me, but I do have a couple things I've been working on, primarily Neverending Dungeon. The latest map had a lot going on, so I decided to switch over to a map key for the images.
Should be out later this afternoon.
Also, I plan to have some monsters, too.

Currently, there are three major campaign settings I'm working on. The first is Wizard of Oz which saw its book drop a couple of weeks ago. The second is Aberranterra whose officially rulebook won't be out until the 7th. And then, of course, there's my lovely Neverending Dungeon.
For this coming Friday Freeday, which one would you like to see me add a bit more to?

Got a few things I'm messing around with today, but I thought I'd share the latest work I'm doing on the Neverending Dungeon. This is the fourth room titled "Don't touch the black crystal!" Thanks to discord user whistlehunter for suggesting the theme crystal.
Also, one of my Discordians, Cephandrius has created a pretty cool rendering of NED1-3 that I thought I might share:

This is something I've wanted to do for a while, but I finally have the project to back it up. For subscribers to the Platinum level, I'm creating monthly Neverending Dungeon tiles. Currently, there are two tiles to the set with 15 monster and item tokens. On the back of each map card is a brand new monster created by me (I probably won't be able to do the WotC-style art, but I thought it looked cool so we'll see).

I forgot to mention that the Post Apocalyptic campaign setting just got opened up. So I'll be working on that for the next couple weeks with Miska.
The plan is to make it 100% compatible with 5e. That way, you can use all the character options, monsters, etc. already in the game with this new setting.
So look forward to that!

It's a cold, rainy day in Norman, Oklahoma today. I've got most of my day job stuff squared away, so I hope to be digging into some new content. Still recovering from the all-nighter I pulled to get Tether together.
Thanks so much for all the kind words! It was a lot of fun to write.
Anyways, here's what's on the slate for today and this weekend.
I realize some of you are probably still reading the adventure, so there's definitely some spoilers here. But currently, I'm drafting up next month's adventure with the collaboration group.
I've got some story ideas in mind, but I was curious: which characters from Tether would you like to potentially see again? Vote below!

Hey all!
BroadSword 2 is in production as I write this and should hit sometime in early November. As long as you are a Gold or Platinum member by the end of the month, you will get a copy. If you are in the US, you only need gold, but worldwide customers will need to be platinum to count for the extra shipping.
On October 31, I'm going to print up the list of the patrons, so make sure you're on there with the right status!
