Due to my rules-tinkering nature I always have an abundance of material that’s either seen some use in game or at least has been vetting by someone other than myself. Today I’m going to post a couple of perks for Ritual Path Magic users . . . . . . if you’d like to read […]

Boil and Bubble: Weird Ritual Path Magic
It’s no secret that I like Ritual Path magic, I’ve talked about it before so I won’t go into it again. If you are even remotely familiar with my blog (and I’ll assume you are) you know that this is a subject near and dear to my heart – like most magic systems. So what do […]
Continue readingBoil and Bubble: Druidic Ritual Path Magic
Dungeons and Dragons, video games, movies . . . all of these things have thrust the ancient religion of the Celts into the modern limelight. It’s become fashionable, even vogue, to include some sort of nature-loving magical hippy into this or that pop culture “thing” (and that’s not a complaint! Druids ARE cool). This material […]

Here’s the highlights for me from October and November 2017 (And yes, I know I’m beyond late – I try to do this at the beginning of the month. but stuff happened. So. Much. Stuff.) Authorial Highlights I submitted no articles in October or November and instead pulled from those I’d finished. I’m still writing a […]

Here’s the highlights for me from September 2017 (And yes, I know I’m a little late – I try to do this at the beginning of the month. but stuff happened.) Authorial Highlights I submitted the article that needed to be finished (and oh-god-why-didn’t-this-end-in-estimated-word-count). The article S. A. Fisher and I were writing was finished, […]

I recently wrote a Pyramid article expanding wildcard skills for GURPS Monster Hunters champions. Not all of them made the cut for one reason or another, but most of the ones I did cut had little to do with actual monster hunting and therefore didn’t have room or make sense within the series… …if you’d […]

Here’s the highlights for me from August 2017. Authorial Highlights I had to backburner projects for Combat and Hot Spots and Locations for another article I needed to work on right now. I shifted an article from one theme to another which freed up space in my Thaumatology queue for something that S. A. Fisher […]

One of the more interesting ideas I had lately was treating Alternate Identity as if it were an Alternate Form. I figure I’d go through the basics of the concept and see if it’s worth developing further… …if you’d like to read more, consider becoming a patron! Note: the link to the actual content for patrons […]

GURPS Thaumatology: Sorcery is one of those magic systems that looks simple on the outside, but hides a deep well within. Since at its core it basically is what makes GURPS great – the ability to modify a trait to suit the needs of the designer… …if you’d like to read more, consider becoming a patron! Note: […]
