The village that forgot to feed its giant


I'm too lazy to write a proper encounter table, so here's one big rumour list instead. I'm so lazy I didn't even bother to divide it into proper sections. And you still have to decide which rumours are true. I'm so lazy.

Rumours:
  1. The Four Pillar Pyramid is really just the tip of the iceberg
  2. Jumping into a chasm just makes you reappear ten meters up in the sky, some meters away
  3. The tiny village by the lake really forgot to feed its giant; its spirit will awake next full moon and crush those puny beings
  4. The sand in the south-western dunes is edible and nutritious, although a bit dry
  5. The pillar by the Rim of the World is made of gemstones
  6. Entering a giant's skull with your eyes closed leads to the negative version of this world
  7. There are two blind octopuses searching for each other in the lake. If they meet they'll mend into the creature that'll devour the world
  8. Cursing and waving a dagger is the proper way to greet most villagers
  9. The tower by the lake lacks windows because it is inhabited by vampires
  10. The lone cross at the end of the mountain path isn't a burial site - it's a meeting place, but not for human beings
  11. Most barns in the forest has the rest of the giant's bones. They are said to bring good luck
  12. There are six cave entrances that leads to the shallow netherworld, each with its own kind of polymorph spell cast upon entering
  13. The Rim of the World is also the Rim of the Universe, and thus the Rim of Reality
  14. Every seventh tent belongs to a ghoul. It moves with the nomads but will not harm them as long they offer it human flesh every full moon
  15. The blood of the now gone giant is stored in the bark of the trees
  16. There's a wise woman meditating on top of one of the Four Pillars
  17. Never buy a yellow potion from a dune merchant; it's just camel piss and doesn't grant you immortal life
  18. The two skulls belonged to the same giant
  19. The Star Tower at the Rim of the World is supposed to be a prison, but nobody's heard from the warder in a while now
  20. The dead trees found scattered around the mountains aren't dead, but undead

Geomorph generator

Almost two years ago, I doodled a bunch of geomorphs.

I've now finally made a generator for it: http://morphs.pushingcows.se

It's not the most advanced geomorph generator out there, but it's lightweight and simple to use, something I've come to appreciate over the years.

Halloween, not so mean


Incontinent Pumpkinhead, will chase you in short sprints




Howlin' Pumpkinhead, with his neglected child due to "career choices"




Boogie-woogie Man




Conservative Grandpaghost who scares like they did back in the day, and little Short Round who's more into comics and video games and stuff.



Headless lord Bartholomew, terrifying as hell but unfortunately blind since he lacks a head.

Space crap



Crap ideas for slightly crappy drawing:

  • The crew of the tiny space faring vessel El Segundo
  • From left to right:
    •  Doctor-bot C.A.G.A.D.A, specialized in species nobody's heard of
    • Captain Mierda, secretly planning to steer the vessel into a sun
    • Zurulla, has an evil left arm someone else controls (a droidstalker in a ship closeby)
    • Spiderbot Diminutos Caca, contains the former captain's brain currently in hypersleep
  • Current mission:
    • Deliver the steel crate box they picked up on CULATO XIV to the space port orbiting waste management moon NALGAS MENOR. Note on crate reads (in space common): "PLEASE DO NOT OPEN. PLEASE DO NOT EAT. PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER."
  • Selection of previous missions:
    • Deliver twelve bottles of fine wine to local president Salchicha Marrón. Failed.
    • Deliver several crates of extra heavy potatoes to some farmers. Successful, but the crates sounded a bit too metallic to contain potatoes, and the farmers looked a bit too armed.
    • Deliver local ex-president Salchicha Marrón to safety. Failed.
  • Rumour table (true or false? Roll 1d10 for the entry, and 1d20 to see if it's true or false: equal or lower = false, otherwise it's true):
    1. There's a tiny, non-functional gun on board that could blast away a planet. It's missing a part.
    2. Zurulla's helmet is filled with voidspace; the most empty void in the universe
    3. The spiderbot can transform into a heat gun
    4. The El Segundo clones every time it hypertravels; some of the clones are out to kill them
    5. The mirror in the bathroom on deck 2 is actually a telehypervision, displaying a parallel universe
    6. The mat in the captain's room is a creature from the planet E. STIÉRCOL II; it lives of sweat
    7. The captain steers El Segundo through his feelings
    8. C.A.G.A.D.A. is building a half-droid in his room. It is stealing parts from things they're supposed to deliver
    9. The droidstalker controlling Zurullas left arm is the original owner of the arm; it wants it back
    10. El Segundo can transform into large robot; the spiderbot works as its head when in that shape

On the distant island of Alphabet

On the distant island of Alphabet
crazy creations in motion are set.
The librarian warlock, tired of reading,
tore his books apart (without any grieving)
and threw them in the magic sea
(they are quite common there, you see).


But as he stood there on the shore,
face red, yelling: "WADDA NEED EM FOR?"
the dissolved paragraphs of sunken pages
touched the crazed geniuses of drowned mages.
"Neat!" one of the Water Magi said,
"let's bring life to that which always been dead!"


So now, on the distant island of Alphabet
twenty-six beasts crawls out of the wet.
Apex, ascender, serif, ear and tie.
All different, both in shape and cry,
but together they roam as a flock
proud children of the librarian warlock
