It's been one heck of a year. I busted the 100 post barrier and never looked back. As of this post I will have hit my stride at 150 posts.

SLEIGHT OF HAND
“Sleight of Hand” is one of the 18 skills in 5th edition D&D. It is a Dexterity skill. This is because “Sleight of Hand” also known as Prestidigitation or Legerdemain, is the set of techniques used to manipulate objects secretly.

I am sad about that, especially as that means that the East Mark product line will not continue in the US, at least in the near future and under the eXtra-Dimensional banner. This does also include the Walkure license too, but fortunately this severing of our licence may mean you see that product in the US sooner than if it had remained with us.
So what happened?…

I added a… Continue reading Making the place look nice for the new year.

Monster Flipped: The Phase Spider
Right as I was wrapping up the post for the Phase Spider I had an inspiration. Yes the Phase Spider is a great Monster In your D&D and PF games. But the cool part about the alien nature is that you could easily slip this big nasty in to a few other settings with little… Continue reading Monster Flipped: The Phase Spider
