Sentient Pizza Dough Monster

A sentient pizza dough monster is only mentally cognizant enough to recognize its creator and even then, just barely. In nearly all cases where one has been encountered, it has sought out its maker to exact some sort of revenge but in a passive-aggressive manner, like an unwanted roommate. It will move in to its creator's residence and lay around, raid the fridge, knock breakable objects off of shelves, and otherwise make a nuisance of itself.

* (I checked both books and while there were creatures that were close, none were close enough).

Feats: Diehard, Endurance, Toughness

Amorphous (Ex): A sentient pizza dough monster has no defined shape, being able to twist and bend its mass at will. As such, it gains a +4 racial bonus on Grapple checks (included above) and a +10 racial bonus on Escape Artist checks (also included above). As a full round action, it can squeeze through an opening as small as 12" square. In the case of an enclosed space, such as a drain pipe or airshaft, it moves at one-third its normal speed but can take no other actions until more tham half of it's bulk has emerged from thr enclosure. It can rear up to a height equal to one-half of its diameter without additional support.

Blindsight (Ex): The sentient pizza dough monster can sense movement in any direction through its doughy hide. In water, this ability is largely negated as only the portion of the creature that is not submerged is capable of sensing its surroundings, limiting the range of this ability to only 5'.

Slowed by Cold and Heat Effects (Ex): If exposed to am attack that deals cold or fire damage, the Sentient Pizza Dough Monster is slowed for 1 round per 5 damage it would have suffered.

Osse - The Forgotten Continent of the Forgotten Realms

Image
Osse is one least detailed continents of the Forgotten Realms.   There is almost no canon information regarding it or its inhabitants.   Even the Forgotten Realms wiki has little to say about this Australian-analog. So, of course, my players will be going there eventually .   I sat down with what little information I had and began fleshing out ideas for what I feel should be there.   It isn’t far from Kara-Tur and that got me to thinking about Monster Island from the old Godzilla movies so I decided that Osse must be the spawning ground for Kaiju.   There is also no equivalent (at last not really) for the myths of Atlantis so I made the interior of the continent home to my own version of that as well.   This is what I came up with. Capital: None Population: 711,813 (68% Ossean Human, 22% Poseidian Human, 4% Lizardfolk, 3% Aarakocra, 1% Mountain Dwarf, 1% Shoal Halfling) Government: City-States, Tribes Religion: Jazirian (also known as the Rainbow Serpent), Bahloo (Sel

Beldam (Other Mother from Coraline)

Image
I watched the movie “ Coraline ” for the first time this weekend.   Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen snippets of the film here and there over the years and I recognized the character when the movie started but I have never sat down and Watched the movie (or read the book).   By the time the show was over, I have to admit that I was fascinated by the entire thing.   The animation and pacing were incredibly well done and the main antagonist was delightfully wicked.   This is who I want to focus on today – Beldam, a.k.a. the Other Mother.   Some viewers may think that she was some sort of demon, offering children their heart’s desire in exchange for their souls, much like a crossroads demon but I feel like she more closely resembles a faerie, a member of the Unseelie Court who is allowed a great deal of independence in her operations.   I also think that since the protagonist, Coraline, was just a child that Beldam wouldn’t necessarily have been overly powerful, holding a relatively low

BeyBlades for D&D

Image
Turns out that my kids are into the whole “ Beyblade ” thing and the only thing the youngest one asked for this year for Christmas was a “Winning Valkyrie” Beyblade.   Aside from knowing that the game is basically a modernized version of battling tops and that there is a cartoon to promote the toy, I knew absolutely nothing about Beyblades up until this weekend. As I watched the boys play with their new “Beys”, I found myself fascinated by their game and the way they talked about different types of strategies and customized builds for their tops.   I gave some thought to a “BeyBlog” that would focus on different combinations of parts, the results of mini-tournaments, product reviews, and maybe a breakdown of individual episodes of the show (although how they managed to wring enough drama out of top-spinning to produce three seasons of the show with over 50 episodes per season confounds me entirely). Given the age of Beyblade’s target demographic I am currently shelving this

Accidentally Funny

Image
Humor is not that unusual in gaming sessions.   When it happens on accident however, it can create long-lasting memories. Once upon a time, I ran a solo adventure for a dwarf named Happy Jack.   Happy was a psychic and an inventor of sorts.   From the pressurized wooden keg full of alchemist’s fire worn on his back with the spray nozzle and sparker to his own brand of beer, Happy Jack was an innovator.   His player always made sure to take good notes of his adventures so he could review what had happened and plan Happy’s next move. For the adventure, I adapted the AD&D 2 nd ed module “Wizard’s Challenge”.   I placed my telling of this tale in Eveningstar in northern Cormyr.   The village, a favorite retreat of King Azoun’s was ruled over by Tessaril Winter.   She was known for mentoring mages of all talents and was a magnet for hopeful apprentices. Several years prior to Happy Jack’s adventures in the village, mysterious circumstances caused the sudden demise of several ap
