Campaign Chronicles

I was driving home along Minnesota's North Shore today when "Murder... Mur-Deer" popped into my head today. While you could use the Dire Elk or Legendary Animal template to achieve the same results, I thought I would take a crack at putting stats to the pun.

I t started out as an idea for a quick, hopefully humorous one-shot. Over the course of the last year as other, similar material became available, it has grown into a short, but full-blown campaign. Based on the one-page RPGs " Pride and Extreme Prejudice " and " Trapped in a Cabin with Lord Byron " combined with " Sentai & Sensibility " and a smattering of the " d20 Anime " by Guardians of Order and d20 Paragon , I find myself continuing to expand on what was supposed to be a bit of a spoof set during the Napoleonic War. The party, based on the quartet of sisters from P&EP, hail from the Campbell family. Borrowing from Sentai, I think I have settled on the Mecha to be magically powered, summoned by magical combs the girls have, each linked to an iconic British animal - Bull, Raven, Boar, and Stag. By activating their magical focus, they first transform into superhuman warriors, armed with powerful melee weapons and armored in distincti

Ünderland is located on Michigan's Upper Peninsula, straddling the Porcupine Mountains. It was the location of a battle fought between Colonel Venture and Nikola Tesla for control of a device known as the Orb in 1896. The entire area was scarred and left nearly barren so a wall was built around the ruined land with the losers trapped inside. Following the arrest and subsequent exile of Baron Werner Ünderbheit, Girl Hitler, a former advisor and resistance, became the small nation's first democratically elected president.   Capital:  Ünderland Castle Population:  Unrevealed, although due to its long-standing policy of forced euthanasia at age 38, the population is small, estimated to be around 29,000 people. Government:  former Dictatorship, currently Democracy led by Girl Hitler Religion:  No state sanctioned religions Imports:  Unrevealed but foodstuffs are likely given the sere, blasted landscape)  Exports:  Mined Ores (until recently gathered via slave labor) Alignment:

I first discovered the Magic Pickle at my oldest son's school book fair years ago. I bought the book for myself and quickly picked up the rest of the series. Now my youngest son is obsessed with the character and the Pickle's books are, by far, his most requested bedtime stories. He can identify every character, especially the villains (the Egg Poacher is his favorite), and does a fake echo of "produce... produce... produce..." every time I read him the origin of the " BROTHERHOOD OF EVIL PRODUCE ." With the August release of Magic Pickle and the Roots of Doom by Scott Morse, I thought it was about time I finally got around to finishing the d20 version of the titular gherkin. Like all of the other superheroes appearing in my campaign , Weapon Kosher (his official government code name) exists on Earth-218 .  Weapon Kosher (a.k.a.

Bear with me for a moment. I'd like to run a game title past you just to get some feedback. Classic Tabletop Role-Playing Games, and fictional works referencing them often fall under the alliterative convention pioneered by Dungeons & Dragons. For example, Castles & Crusades, Bunnies & Burrows, Trolls & Tunnels, Mazes & Monsters, Houses & Humans, amd the list goes on and on appearing in everything from "Bob's Burgers" to "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" and "Borderlands 2". So.... what about "Cattle Mutilations & Crop Circles?" The characters are Martians or Wookies or whatever species E.T.'s race was and their goal is to carry out the aforementioned activities, abductions, probes, and so on while evading the government, UFOlogists, the staff of the National Enquirer, and other interested parties. (I think we all know what happens next - credit to original artist, whoever they may be) Update #1: This morning, one o
