Rats and bats and cats and snails And little babies’ fingernails You take a pot and brew it all Plotting for your foe to fall This week’s piece is a 1st level alternative for Make potion. I’m not a fan of the original, as it seems overly convoluted to cast, but Witches’ Brew is not […]
Invoking the ancient signs and phrases of warding the caster shields the target from the sepulchral gaze of Death itself. This week’s piece is a counter for the Litany of Death I wrote up a few weeks ago (available here). Again, the spell is primarily designed with clerics in mind, but is available to wizards […]
“Lo, he spoke the Word And without hesitation or resistance Those opposing his God fell dead Their souls severed from their mortal coils” Excerpt from the annals of Kevan Longmoor, the Grand Undertaker of Malotoch This week’s piece is a new spell, mainly written with clerics in mind, but also available to high level wizards.

“The life of the common folk of the north is everywhere similar due to the simple imperative of survival through the bitter winter. Loptir offers succor to his followers, warmth and comfort to all who are in need.”
“Worlds exist, this we know. And between them, something else. A non-space, limitless and incomprehensible. Not a dimension, but the lack of it. In that unfathomable realm, things float. And watch. And wait.” This weeks article is a double whammy: an eldritch, existential, ectoplasmic patron from beyond, and a magic item to introduce it to […]
“We went to the tower in the east woods las’ week. Y’know, the one they say was abandoned by a wizard a few years back? Figured it was time to see if anythin’ was left be’ind by the freak who used ta live there. Was a bad move of course. Never meddle in the affairs […]
