Green Light:
Tales of the Margreve Commissioned

I’m happy to announce that Tales of the Old Margreve has reached the commissioning goal and is moving into design!

Monday Monsters: Nihilimentis

Bred to exterminate all sentient life in the natural world, nihilimentii were created as living weapons in the ancient cosmic war between the gods and the primordials.  The psychic vibrations of intelligent creatures cause nihilimentii physical discomfort, driving them to a solitary existence.  In fact, other creatures’ perceptions of the nihilimentii create painful psychic feedback …
