System Saturday: Released My System Into the Wild

And with that I have now brought A Crucible For Silver to version 1.0. I finished the mercenary company rules last night and did another editorial pass. There wasn't much more I could do so I have released it here: https://skyorrichegg.itch.io/a-crucible-for-silver for $4.00 as well as at drivethrurpg for the same price. It still has to go through the review process at drivethrurpg so that will be a couple of days before I announce its release on anywhere but this blog. 

It is a frightening feeling having it out there. Realistically, as a public domain "artfree" version, I will be happy if I ever make a couple dozen sales. Just knowing someone out there thought it looked interesting enough to drop a few dollars on it will be a wonderful feeling. 

Next on the horizon is getting together some kickstarter preview art and starting to put together a small kickstarter project for A Crucible For Silver with really nice art to go along with it. Here is a preview of what that looks like a bit from Javier Suárez:

The Curse of Doors

Image
The adventurers enter an ornate room with four doors, one they enter and the other three are closed. They also see a beautiful, valuable necklace lain on a table. A close examination of the necklace shows that there is writing in an ancient language on it. Knowledge of that ancient language shows that the writing is a number: 1d20+2. Anyone who touches the necklace is afflicted with the curse of doors: opening a new door while wearing the necklace opens the door to infinite possibilities. A door may open to any room or room like area, in any place, plane, or universe. The only requirements are that the area immediately around the room is breathable and livable by humans and that there is at least one other door somewhere nearby. If someone afflicted with the curse attempts to open a new door without the necklace, the door will open back to the room the necklace is in. If they attempt to leave the necklace in a different room the doors will open back up to that same room with the neckla

Funday Sunday: 1d100 Weird Merchants in the Grand Bazaar

With my system out for  sale  I am full steam ahead on working on this new setting. The Grand Bazaar will be a pointcrawl or depthcrawl  and will involve trying to follow the byzantine rules of the mysterious Sultan who runs the whole infinite market of the Grand Bazaar. The idea is for most of the shop and cart owners to be relatively normal NPCs having been lost travelers or merchants who just decided to set up shop in the biggest and best market in the multiverse. However if you want the merchants and inhabitants to get a bit weirder, and you should, especially with how weird things can get in the Grand Bazaar, here are 1d100 weird merchants: All shadow. Speaks in a raspy whisper. Has mouths covering their body. Talks only in questions. Draped patterned, coverings over every exposed bit of flesh. Wants a way home. An engorged spider. Friendly but hungry. Spider made of spiders. Hypnotic and a hard bargainer. Person wearing a turban who is in fact a writhing mass of worms.  The memor

The Curse of Doors: D10 Rooms Part 1

Image
I got a chance to run the start of my curse of doors concept at the table and I am super excited about it. The players found the necklace in a room in a small dungeon they were going through. Despite the clear risks a player picked it up and I rolled a 12 on my d20 so +2 means they are going to need to open 14 brand new doors and enter in to the weirdness and insanity through those doors to rid themselves of the curse. I used some individual rooms from modules and megadungeons I was interested in, some of which I wanted to run for them in the future and some that I did not think I could fit in easily. I had specifically selected some because of the interesting sorts of interactions and experimentations that were in the room. Some I moved nearby doors, that existed in the room as described in the modules, around to allow a bit more exploring about the area without them immediately moving around. Some things that I quickly noticed about this sort of system is that there was some narrati
