Monday Monster: Deathshade Wisp
from Courts of the Shadow Fey

By Matthew Cicci / September 14, 2009 / Articles, Front Page, Monsters

Every kingdom has its royal guards: stoic souls with vigilant eyes, strength of arm, and unmatched loyalty. The Courts of the Shadow Fey are no different. That final quality — loyalty — has forced the black-hearted nobles of the court to seek guardians from unorthodox sources. Knowing no living shadow fey could be trusted to […]

Beret Tinglefoot, the Demon Tinker

By Jonathan Jacobs / September 3, 2009 / Articles, Front Page

Beret quickly hobbled down the pebbled path, unwilling to stop and look back for even a moment. Behind him, and behind the closed iron doors to his toy forge, he heard a cacophony of whirring, whining, and grinding, the sounds of the Reapervast. His finest creation was thinking for itself now, and it was not

Monday Monster: Svara

By Phillip Larwood / August 24, 2009 / Articles, Front Page, Monsters

This well muscled dragon has fine scales the color of overripe lemons and strangely luminous green eyes. Its wings are short and seem barely capable of lifting it off the ground and its body is stocky and lacks the grace of its draconic brothers, yet its claws are razor sharp and its mouth is filled

Shadow Fey, Azlant, and Azathoth

To date, Open Design has been about competition between competing proposals, pitting projects and editions against one another. In an effort to accommodate everyone, we even completely redesigned Halls of the Mountain King in two editions. While that project was huge, we’re not pursuing that approach again. We’re learning from the experience and doing something

Monday Monster: Clockwork Hounds

By Ben McFarland and Scott Gable / August 3, 2009 / Articles, Front Page, Monsters

They were once the province of the corrupt aristocracy, running down escaped slaves and tracking prey in hunting expeditions. Those days are gone, but the clockwork hounds still tick and hunt. The Praetors of Zobeck seized them during the revolt that established the Free City, and now, they operate only on the command of the

4E Kobolds and the Tome Show

By Wolfgang Baur / July 15, 2008 / Front Page

Jeff Grubb wrote up a version of the Zobeck kobold for use as a 4E PC race over on his Grubb Street site. Technically, Zobeck is a setting for 3E D&D, but I’m happy to see fan material for it in any edition. This one is especially nice because he really gets the urban kobold
