the world causing mischief knocking over jars stealing food and devouring solitary travellers who they meet on lonely roads while it may not be itself sighted often in the places it haunts its presence is known through claw scratches upon the doors of temples hideous night yowling and the acrid scent of its oily vomitus spewed upon graveyards and other sacred places it seeks to defile

harmed by magical attacks or weapons coated in silver invisibility when alone or within an area of darkness may become invisible as the spell may speak interact with unattended objects or make a single claw attack without ending the invisibility rendered visible if damaged disguise may change appearance to resemble a normal black housecat with the same conditions as invisibility purring voice can attempt to charm any person who hears its voice targets must save vs spells or treat the schreckenkatzen as they would a normal housecat fiery hiss flare of yellow green fire from its eyes and

comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday july 14 2024 new monster steel snails picture from a post on britain in detail quirk charm and craft in the built environment on facebook steel snail a swarm of small metallic snails that consume metals despite their name their bodies usually resemble some patchy iron but their actual composition depends on the specific metals they ve been feeding on they implacably slither towards any metal they scent whether worn held or unattended they exude heat from small furnaces within their shells where they digest the metals which a whole swarm may release at once in response to danger the equivalent to a heat metal spell applied to anyone within 10 feet of the swarm they may do this once per day a swarm that inhabits an area for a long time will gradually coat surfaces in a metallic patina with their slime trails fanciful tales from the east have wizards feeding them diets of precious metals to gild sculptures and scrolls with unique alloys and providing a smokeless source of heat given their composition and behaviour most sages ascribe their origins to one of the paraelemental planes of existence although this has not been satisfactorily proven in the collegia magna and a significant minority assume them to be sorcerous constructs armour class 5 14 hit dice 2 to 4 9 13 18hp attacks

automatically take damage 2hp if wearing armour 4hp without and the snails latch onto them doing damage automatically while still attached this damage is magical heat vent once per day may vent heat en masse as heat metal applied to everyone within 10 ft of the swarm consume metals metals left in the swarm s area over time will be consumed by the swarm with small objects e g thieves tools consumed within 1 turn and any armour or swords consumed entirely within 1d6 hours magic items may save to resist as with rust monsters escaping on exiting the swarm characters continue to suffer half damage until a round is spent swatting off attached snails pursuit snail swarms that scent metal within 60 ft will pursue it relentlessly raw materials the snails value as metals depends on the metals

spells a few years ago when a wilderlands campaign was being converted from 5e to ose i had written up two versions of spells my 5e character a tempest domain cleric used a lot it seemed weird to me for him to just stop casting the spell so using existing previous edition spells as benchmarks i converted them to this thunderwave 1st level spell duration instant range 15 cone a wave of thunder blasts creatures and objects in a 15 foot cone originating from the caster any creature in the area of the wave takes 1d4 points of thunder damage per caster level maximum 5d4 with a successful save versus spells indicating half damage unsecured objects and medium or smaller creatures who failed their save are hurled 10ft away from the caster shatter 2nd level spell duration instant range 60 an implosive wave crushes things within a 10 radius sphere originating at a point within range damage creatures and objects caught in the sphere suffer 1d4 damage per level of the caster 1d6 if they are made of inorganic materials with a successful save versus spells indicating half damage at march 10 2023 no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday january 9 2023 disconnected thoughts on running medieval settings reposting a reply to someone who asked for tips and advice running a cthulhu dark ages game these were written with the idea of a medieval mystery game in mind but i think they apply equally to pretty much anything trying to capture a medieval vibe 1 all institutions are persons the level of bureaucracy and institutional inertia we re used to in the modern era could only be dreamed of the rules are never blindly enforced and the systems in place to argue about them are incredibly complex compared to our expectations 2 labour is expensive and preserving it is everyone s reflexive top priority as much as the life of a peasant seems degraded to us the entire system exists to keep people able to make food and the margins for error for even a king are razor thin compared to now 3 points 1 and 2 mean everyone is very aware of their debts and obligations in keeping everyone around them alive and their reliance on the fulfillment of those debts and obligations by others if one person in a village dies it s everyone s business 4 the world is alive this might seem odd since we re not used to the idea of medieval christianity as animistic but the reality is that the medieval mind treated the entire cosmos as hylozoic they describe physics geology weather everything in terms we would reserve for plants and animals 5 life is mysterious and mysterious forces surround everything a tree grows from an acorn a child from its mother a corpse births the worms and flies of corruption it is not weird to assume that a child born under a particular star sign will have some traits for the fixed and wandering stars scribe the cycle of the seasons themselves upon the heavens at january 09 2023 no comments email
