I could see this creature making an appearance in my Creeks and Crawdads crossover but for now, I am sharing this because I saw this post in a Gamma World group I am in. I used 4th ed Gamma World because it has a near direct conversion to AD&D 2nd edition and as discussed before , I can easily adapt to 3.5e from there.

After I finish running my Western campaign, I plan on running a sequel set during Prohibition using a combination of Gangbusters and Cthulhu by Gaslamp to flesh out the world some more before my main campaign crosses over with it.  Bruce is an NPC I have been bouncing around in my head for awhile.  Bruce staggered up the stairs to the office of the Barton Detective Agency and pushed open the door.  Within, he discovered that his assistant, Mabel, the wife of a retired police officer was waiting inside.  Thankfully, she had already brewed a pot of coffee and it was sitting on the hot plate when he walked in.  Mabel looked at Bruce, instantly taking in his disheveled appearance, his stained and rumpled suit, day-and-a-half beard and bleary eyes and shook her head. “Damn, Boss. You look like $#!%.  What the %*#@ happened to you?” Bruce looked at the squat solidly built woman.  She was wearing a dress with a floral pattern and h...

I have been on a bit of a robot kick lately so I thought I would share another project that I have been bouncing around for the last few weeks. Crosswind is a Decepticon Transformer from the planet Cybertron. He serves as a scout for Megatron's forces and spends much of his time seeking out easily exploitable resources. Unlike many of his Transformer brethren, he lacks the mass shifting ability that allows him to change size as well as shape and is often relegated to a secondary role, something he resents. Since Crosswind is a scout, he could be encountered on any world in search of resources for the Deception war effort. He could even arrive in much the same manner as the invaders from Tales of the Comet, whatever works for you. Crosswind: "Male" Cybertronian Robot (Transformer) CR: 15 Colossal Construct (Shapechanger) HD: 24d10 plus 80; Hp: 182 Init: -1, Senses: Spot +9, Darkvision 60', Low-Light Vision, Sensor Package Spd: 50', fly 1,000' (...

I stumbled across an article about a robot that feeds runners tomatoes to "keep their energy up" during marathons. It got me to thinking and I have come up with a couple different versions that I would like to share with you today. The first version is the closest to the real-life Tomaton . In the Forgotten Realms, it could have been designed by Nadul daRoni or the Wonderbringers of Gond with tomatoes imported from Maztica (before the continent's disappearance to Abeir). On Krynn, serves as a simplified example of Tinker Gnome technology. Tomaton: This device is worn on its user's shoulders but the frame allows its weight to be carried on the hips. A cylindrical tube on Tomaton's back is designed to hold up to six tomatoes although similarly-sized fruits (like apples, oranges, etc) can be substituted. Shifting a tiny lever in its foot moves the arms to catch a tomato from the tube. It's arms then rotate the fruit overhead and holds it in ...
