This quick encounter has a fast set-up and can be dropped into place in any Monster Hunters campaign. The players come across information that an actual Nephilim grave (giants who roamed the earth before the Biblical Flood) has been found. After some quick research they realize that the ancient creature has been bound to its […]

Gamemaster’s Guidepost: Dungeon Fantasy Loot Rolls
“Loot! Loot! GIVE US THE LOOT!” cries the players around your table. But dang it! You forgot to roll some loot for your adventure last night because you were too busy designing some traps and custom monsters with which to foil your players. Well guess what? I got you covered. Not only do I have […]
Continue readingGURPS101: Lens for Bard – The Warsinger
When I was starting to run Dungeon Fantasy for the first time I decided that I’d make a bunch of options that I knew my players would like or use. I did this both to fill out my handout a little more and to be able to use the content later on in a publication […]
Continue readingGURPS101: More Bioenhancement Abilities for Monster Hunter Experiments I
The Experiment template is one of the cooler ones in GURPS Monster Hunters in my opinion. They’ve got a wide-range of capabilities and have an “otherness” quality that can make them more fun to play than the inhuman if done right. But what is an experiment other than a collection of neat powers? So maybe […]
Continue readingBoil and Bubble: Magical Styles – Luna di Fiamma
GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles is probably one of the most groundbreaking books on standard magic that has yet to come out for GURPS 4th edition. It describes various ways to tweak standard magic into a more flavorful – yet formulaic – way. The following magical style works best for a contemporary campaign, but can fit […]

Today’s special is similar to the previous patrons-only Triple Threat (the Whispermen) in that it came from an idea I had. Why do we wear masks? I know it dates back thousands of years, but why? What do masks do? Do they hide you from something? Or does it let you hide from everyone… …if […]

My other half’s favorite “class” is bard. She loves playing bards no matter the system and when she came to me and asked if I could help her make a “meistersinger” for GURPS Dungeon Fantasy I couldn’t say no. So here’s what we came up with… …if you’d like to read more, consider becoming a patron! (If […]
Continue readingGURPS101: The Fifth Attribute
I like to toy around with game mechanics when I create campaign settings. It allows me to make a campaign setting feel unique and give it its own flavor. The rules for a single attribute for all paranormal powers came to me after a discussion on physics (of all things) and how you might apply […]
Continue readingGURPS101: Lens for Holy Warrior – Justice and Retribution
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Revenge is best served cold. Justice will be served. Our language is littered with phrases like this. But what’s the difference between justice and revenge? Who cares! This! Is! Dungeon! Fantasy! Whether It’s a noose or bringing ‘em back alive you get your man and he gets what’s […]
Continue readingBoil and Bubble: Words of Creation
Logos (sometimes referred to as “power words” or “prime words”) are the literal words of Creation itself. Logos are the selfsame words that were spoke in the making of the universe. Despite having such a divine provenance they can be learned by mortal men and women who have sufficient strength of will…. …if you’d like to read more, […]
