Ooze Am I? By Geoff Bottone The Red Dragon Inn 10 Kickstarter is live! I woke up in the dark, on a very sticky floor. The stickiness bothered me, but a quick tactile survey made me realize that it wasn’t my stickiness, so that was all right. I got up off the floor and, in doing so, felt my foot kick against something that rattled and clattered away into the darkness. I again put my sense of touch to good use and felt around on the floor until my hands touched something that felt not unlike a very sticky, very

Dark Priestess Valeria
Dark Priestess Valeria By Geoff Bottone For a blind orphan girl living on the streets of Kiragazze, Valeria did not do too badly for herself. This was due, in no small part, to the crows. Kiragazze was also known as the City of Crows. They had nests in almost every tree. They stood with murderous intent upon the crumbling peaks of the city’s oldest buildings. They roosted in Kiragazze’s leaning and fire-blackened bell towers. They fluttered about the squares, croaking and flapping, accosting passersby for scraps of food and shiny objects. Valeria had possessed a kinship with the crows for
Eisinder the Frozen Flame
Eisinder’s Game By Geoff Bottone The Red Dragon Inn 10 Kickstarter is live! “C’mon Daiskos! You got this!” shouted one of the sailor’s friends from the back of the bar. In response, Eisinder grinned, an expression that gave Daiskos a very good look at her pointy teeth. She sent twin jets of frosted air out of her nostrils to further punctuate the effect, smiling even wider as Daiskos’ eyes became very round. She had thrown him off his game for only a moment, but it was long enough for her to regain her lost advantage. Her scaled skin rippled as
Karl Bookhammer
Karl Bookhammer By Geoff Bottone The Red Dragon Inn 10 Kickstarter is live! The great thing about being strong is that Karl could carry a lot of books. He carried those books into the Red Dragon Inn and used them to set up a little fortress at a corner table. None of them were the book that he had planned to get, alas, but they were consolation prizes that he could occupy his time with until that book was available again. One of the waitresses brought him a mineral water and a bowl of pretzels, allowing Karl to snack while
Dominique the Resourceful
Dominique the Resourceful By Geoff Bottone The Red Dragon Inn 10 launches goes live on Kickstarter October 10th! ZERINNE ISLAND NEWLY REUNIFIED NATION OF GARNIER FARNSDAY 12, 834 0930 HOURS As Dominique flapped her towel open and laid it on the sand, she cast a surreptitious gaze about her. Despite the perfect blue sky and gently rolling surf, the remote beach was otherwise deserted. This didn’t rule out the possibility that unknown parties were observing her from the thick, leafy greenery that formed the boundary between beach and jungle, of course. She knelt down on her towel and opened the
Trapmaster Alaric
Trapmaster Alaric By Geoff Bottone The Red Dragon Inn 10 launches goes live on Kickstarter October 10th! Most people know there are two types of thieves in Greyport: the public-facing ones known for their charitable works in the Undercity and the much sneakier ones that collect involuntary donations from Guild-approved targets. Alaric was what the Thieves’ Guild called a floater. He was a card-carrying member that specialized in traps and trap removal. Most of the time, he was employed to clear ancient and dangerous traps out of tucked-away corners of the Undercity. More rarely, he was sent in with a
New SlugCrew Rewards!
In the first few days of 2020, we eagerly announced new rewards for SlugCrew, our team of enthusiasts running SlugFest gaming sessions at game stores and conventions.

SlugCrew May Run Events Online Until July
Hello SlugCrew, As more and more areas come under shelter in place orders to slow the spread of COVID-19, we have been mulling over ways to support our international demo team. In ordinary times, we don’t allow demonstrations held online to count towards earning SlugCrew points.
