Wasted Lands: The Dying Age
The Wasted Lands RPG is fantastic for all sorts of campaigns. But instead of playing at the dawn of the world, I want to play at the end of it.

Vor kurzem hab ich angefangen, eine Vorzeichnung auf einen 50x70 Bogen Büttenpapier vorerst mit Bleistift zu übertragen. Das ganze soll eine Ink-Zeichnung werden, die das Baumdorf „Voyria“ abbildet. Mal schauen wieviel Monate das Projekt braucht 😁

I am currently reading "Fools Errant" by Matthew Hughes, a work set in the Dying Earth and deliberately imitative of Vance's style.

There's a great magic item: a cloak of invisibility that emits a staggeringly foul stench. It's a clever drawback that I hadn't thought of before.

Gute Vorsätze oder einfach nur Wünsche fürs #pnp #ttrpg nächstes Jahr:

Habe einen Open Table für #stonehelldungeon gestartet und hoffe, der tuckert einfach entspannt weiter.

Bei #valravn wäre ich gern öfter dabei. #ardenvul war große Klasse, und das Tal der Thani gibt's ja auch noch.

Ansonsten reizt mich mal wieder #talislanta, da kann ich auch die famose #dcc #DyingEarth -Box reinpacken.

Ganz famos wäre piu-piu #spaceopera, so Richtung #starwars meets Becky Chambers. #starswithoutnumber

It is cool to see more people discovering Book of the New Sun (#BotNS)-- one of my favorite series of books ever -- and making art about it. I just had reason to search for images related to the books and saw so much "new" stuff since I last looked at art based on the story. Here's one of the older ones -- some jacket art from one of the paperback editions.

9 Tales of Raffalon

In an age of wizards and walled cities, Raffalon is a journeyman member of the Ancient and Honorable Guild of Purloiners and Purveyors. In other words, a thief.His skills allow him to scale walls, tickle locks, defeat magical wards. He lifts treasures and trinkets, and spends the proceeds on ale and sausages in taverns where a wise thief sits with his back to the wall.But somehow things often go the way they shouldn't and then Raffalon has to rely upon his wits and a well calibrated sense of daring.Here are nine tales that take our enterprising thief into the Underworld and Overworld, and pit him against prideful thaumaturges, grasping magnates, crooked guild masters, ghosts, spies, ogres, and a talented amateur assassin.Includes "Inn of the Seven Blessings," from the bestselling anthology, ROGUES, and "Sternutative Sortilege," which appears only in this collection.Praise for Matthew Hughes:"Matthew Hughes does Jack Vance better than anyone except Jack himself" - George R.R. Martin"Heir apparent to Jack Vance" - Booklist"Hughes's boldness is admirable"- New York Review of Science Fiction"Hughes effortlessly renders fantastic worlds and beings believable"- Publishers Weekly"A towering talent"- Robert J. Sawyer"A treasure" - David Gerrold
