pssst hey I've made books you should get them on the Dungeon Masters Guild!. Together both are like 4 bucks! We are close to a gold medal too! Which would let me print my books on demand! http://dmsguild.com/product/381118… http://dmsguild.com/product/403411… Cosmos Curiosities is a book about a shop that appears anywhere in the multiverse. It can follow your party even if they venture from world to world. The enigmatic shopkeeper Vega has 42 new items from across the multiverse in her shop, and the book also has plot hooks, and roleplay tips for running Vega! I am actually working on a follow up to this book with more items, new races, backgrounds and more!

The Biblioplex Archive has 20+ spells to add to your Strixhaven campaign based on the instants and sorcery cards from the Magic The Gathering set. This book is under 80 sales away from a gold medal! Which means future books I make could be print on demand! There are some NPC's in here as well you can add to your Strixhaven campaigns!

[Edit: The offer for these modules has expired, but they remain tried-and-true investments if you're looking for low-level adventures.]

Wizards of the Coast has been offering for the last weeks a rotation of free D&D 5e modules an images as part of their COVID-19 support initiative, including some modern classics from the Adventurers’ League like Tales Trees Tell and The Scroll Thief. You certainly can go check it all out, but I’ve highlighted here 5 must have modules from the current offering. These have all received great accolades and can serve to expand current hardcover offerings or your own world. Check them out before they disappear the 17-18th of May.

Pudding Fairy - A 3-4 hour module for character levels 1-4. You awaken on the morning of the Pudding Faire: just as you did yesterday… and the day before that… and the day before that! To escape the loop, you must break a curse that strikes to the heart of halfling and gnome lore.

Blue Alley - A 3-4 hour adventure for characters of 1st to 4th level.

Blue Alley lies hidden in the heart of Waterdeep. Built by a secretive wizard, it is a magic maze full of tricks, traps, strange monsters, and rich treasure. Countless adventurers have ventured inside to test their bravery and skill, yet few have returned. And now it is your turn…

The Black Road - A 2 hour adventure for 1st-4th level characters.

Caravans are having a difficult time getting through to Parnast via the Black Road. Little do they know that an unusually intelligent hill giant, going by the name of Bad Fruul is to blame. SEER has sent her emissary Hsing, to task your group to accompany a caravan with a very special cargo destined for the Shrine of Axes in Parnast, and to figure out who is responsible.

Uninvited Guests - A 2 hour adventure for 1st-4th level characters

The Shrine of the Axes has been restored and Raggnar Redtooth, who previously conspired with dragon cultists, is trying to restore his reputation in Parnast by sponsoring a feast. There is just one thing he needs, meat for his feast. Game is supposed to be plentiful in the Weathercote Wood, but the townsfolk are all busy with their own work, and the minions of Bad Fruul are still out there causing trouble. What can go wrong on a simple hunt?

Rats of Waterdeep - A 3-4 hour adventure for 1st-4th level characters.

This month’s adventure is for D&D 5e! Dalren Thurdek was once one of the greatest Dwarven Wizards on the  Sword Coast. A hero renowned for great deeds, and powerful knowledge and a prized member of the Harpers.  However, his tomb and all this great knowledge were lost after the Orc invasions.  

The once lost forgotten tomb, hidden in the roots of the Sword mountains has been found again by a local Goblinoid tribe, who have begun scavenging the wizard's burial place, they risk destroying all of his great knowledge and lost treasures.  Now a team of adventures has to rid the goblins while also trying to survive the traps and puzzles placed here by Thurdek's disciples.

Designed for a standard part of four players between levels 3 and 5. Thurdek’s Tomb builds off some of the lore found in the starter adventure Mines of Phandelver, but easy enough to drop into any setting or adventure with little preparation! Perfect for a side quest, a campaign starter or even a one-shot adventure.

GRIMDARK 3.0 IS LIVE!

The new document is 16 pages including fancy artwork, updated rules based on playtesting, and new features like "Soaking Off" damage and armor Durability. The PDF is on a 10% off sale right now because of International GM's Day, so it's less than $1.00 for a download right now. So far 76 people have downloaded the document. Why not be number 77?

I finished tweaking (the first draft of) the last chapter of Facing the Incoming Wind. Oh my gosh, no more Makoto & Kei! I'm all attached to them and it's only been two volumes; I can just imagine what I'll be like if I ever work on a long series. (Let alone what it must be like for a mangaka actually drawing one of those series that hits 30+ volumes!)

The Summary:

Kei Arimoto and Makoto Ohtaki had been bosom buddies since middle school, but their relationship begins to change as college forces the two to spend more time apart. Kei is using all his wiles to take their relationship to the next level but Makoto continues to resist a more physical connection. Can Makoto finally acquiesce to Kei’s advances or will he find his soul mate stolen by a formidable rival instead? “Love Soul” shows that their paths to true love and positions in bed can be ambiguous and painfully funny.

Includes two extra stories: In “Love is a Question”, Harada finds himself falling for his best friend’s rival in love. In “Double Face”, Atsushi is determined to seal away an evil power – but must he risk his friend’s life?

My personal thoughts: I enjoyed this one for Agawa-sensei's artwork--she doesn't draw her guys too pretty, and leaves the line work just rough and sketchy enough to be interesting--for the work she obviously put into the characters' relationship and personalities...and oh yeah, for that moment when Kei goes utterly into catfight mode and the "enemy" won't take him up on it at all. :)

Well, now you can see for yourself what I've been chattering about all this time!
