A wizard tower on planet Psychon from a con game where this cloacacola came handy

Had last game for year 

Was my Theros game where one player of three was sick and two drop ins turned up who had characters only a few levels to adjust. So we had a centaur monk, minotaur paladin, centaur bard and a satyr priest all 7th Lv. Players debated best option for adventure from: Triton sea folk offered to help kill an evil immortal sea lord who ruined undersea peace, the cursed labyrinth where monsters are working on resurrecting the evil monsters part of the curse to ensure their immortality, explore islands like the ice giant and dragon glacier or visit the northern giant kingdom of Geryon. They cleared the last mountain volcanic pass of a Chimaera, and after a god, Kruphix turned up to warn them that the mountain pass monsters protected the colony of humans in the south. Returned to town with the remains of a hero and a petrified satyr ancestor of a character. Declared heroes, told their story with outrageous performance rolls and illusions. Followed by a growing mob, who carried the party to the king declared a feast day. The artisans measured the party for statues of the polis. They bought some magic loot and departed to the north. Came across a blasted valley and a stone building. From metallic hoof prints and spells saw a bronze gorgon was inside. Also, ancient inscriptions and treasure and stone doors added to the temptation. Possibly it was related to a smith god. Lucky for me Theros book has temples of all the gods ready to play. So they slew the gorgon and during battle set fite to braziers that opened the goors. They wanted to crushed the beast but it didnt last long enough. Inside the temple seemed to be of a craft god and the players had townsfolk interested in new mines and wild horses in the north as amazons only sell male warhorses. As the party bastion has smiths and masons they were interested and had a peek inside.

Chagrinspire feels more and more like diplomacy now heroes own a kingdom. Maybe the followers will go on a quest as they are now troubleshooters. Im trying to make a list of options to end the campaign next year. We are playing one offs next 6 weeks. TSR marvel brit spyfy continuation of out Golden age hero game went from 40s to coldwar 50s.

Id like to run midderlands and/or Dolmenwood too.
The Gaslight Cthulhu books have me interested in that setting too.
Id like to run my last Cthulhu in space game sometime.

I have been mostly playing fallout 76, reading ROM & Alphaflight hardbacks and piles of rulebooks i will review some time. Enjoying moonknight, supergirl and absolute martian manhunter comix. All my KS games in (ive never got my Smork Borg KS book due to my slackness but im glad it exists). Dolmenwood, DCC Purple Planet, Grim Hollow and some other stuff. Also got the oldschool essentials box sets as i was robbed getting advanced dm book. Has been making me rethink stuff.

Doing some frog and reptile rescue stuff and trying to make a band video.

I might resume study if i can look at my notes or anything about trauma without feeling ill. Possibly restarting with all orientation stuff not being missed I might cope better. Worst operating system of any institution I've ever seen which doesn't help.

I hope to resume some book comps of stuff and my Patreon but wasn't really inspired or interested in money. Id consider it for charity but unclear how to handle payments without me being taxed. I dont think im capable of producing finished well well-resolved anything anymore. Not by myself anyway, as my artist and editor retired over health stuff.

I do welcome ideas for blog posts, tables or suggestions of old stuff to finish.
Mostly comments i get now are about who to send money to for joining the Illuminati.
Most of my exploding viewing numbers here i don't believe are human.

I do plan to update/complete:

Chagrinspire Vol 4 (maybe will re-edit into one book later)

Ethyria - extra level and maybe a hexcrawl map

Auldwood - replace all art as i was briefly playing with AI but quite over it now and will remake everything i did with it (i did some sf stuff using it too but harder to replace with clip art)

My Broken hill stuff had thousands of dollars of art ready and most not used. I could expand that work and id like to run it again.

Project X with most assets for publication ready but needs playtesting

Have a great holiday season and have good games or else
