From the smoking ruins of The Silent Sorcerer's tower, Skullsword sends forth nonsensical artwork and useless gaming tools. He also likes to discuss RPGs, boardgames, miniatures painting, writing, movies, books, and whatever else strikes his fancy. Mostly though, his goal is to provide fun and goofy things to inspire others in their games. Enjoy!

Weird Adventure Idea Wednesday
This week's weird adventure idea:
On a hazy afternoon you have a chance meeting with an evil-smelling laborer in a bustling inn. The laborer discloses to you that 5 weeks journey to the northeast, atop The Sullied Precipices of Witchcraft stands The Whispering Mansion of the Ruinous Knight. It is believed that there lay The Frigid Steel Stabbing Sword of the Bloodcurdling Priest. But beware, for the laborer advises you that The Vengeful Plant Man of the Damned lurks there!

Table of Magical Eye Replacements (Free PDF)
Here is a d100 table for magical eye replacements. It might be good for those times when your players lose an eye and that cut-rate sorcerer they asked to fix it gives them a bit more than they bargained for. There is nothing system specific here as the eyes don't have details beyond their colorful names, but I think that the names are descriptive enough to inspire creativity. Enjoy!
