Continue reading →: Wushu RPG ReviewI read through Wushu in my continuing quest to read all Chinese wuxia inspired games. Wushu is an independently published game that you can get for free. Very simple rules and art, but sometimes that’s all you need. The game is available directly on the author’s website or as a…

Along with celebrating two family birthdays and Thanksgiving in the same month. November really isn’t the best month for this tradition, is it?

Tereman and Blendegad shrugged their packs off and drew their swords. The bear shoved the pile of bodies aside and stalked forward on two feet. It’s gigantic paws raised…

Chapter 11 – Shrine of Artemis (Continued) Galandir said, “I’ve already been making the offerings. It becomes second nature.” Blendegad said, “So that’s what you were doing? Every time you picked up an acorn and threw it you were giving an offering to Artemis?” Galandir enthusiastically nodded. “Exactly! You’ve got…

Chapter 10 – Phoenix (Continued) Tereman grunted in disagreement. “That’s not the same. A king or lord has the right to collect taxes to build and defend the city.” Blendegad said, “And what has the city ever done to defend the villages they tax? I was the one hunting down…

Chapter 9 – Hollow Rejoicing (Continued) Blendegad nodded. “Yes. I have that in Densmith. It is nice. To have… something.” Galandir said, “So the funeral in a few days. How are they going to do that without the bodies?” Tereman said, “It won’t be a real funeral. Grandma Blintz asked…

Chapter 9 – Hollow Rejoicing (Continued) Blendegad, Tereman, and Galandir kept looking back towards the northeast. The adlishars’ blue spindle structure was still out there. Still looking over the valley. Still threatening all of Cimmeria. They went into the monsters’ lair, but hadn’t really slain it. They were permitted to…

Snakeshifter disguise magic is only a glamour and does not change their physical size. Thus, they live among races that are similar in shape such as humans, elves, orcs, and hobgoblins.

Chapter 8 – Second Tries (Continued) Kardishan walked through the fire without burning or flinching. He came to the point of Galandir’s sword where the fire originated from. A thin barrier around Kardishan’ skin glowed. Protection magic, making Galandir’s own spell ineffective. Galandir released the spell. Exhausted, his arms dropped…
Hello,
I’m Isaac
Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.
