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

Baelfire, Summoner of Shadows

Baelfire, Summoner of Shadows By Geoff Bottone You can earn a preview version of Baelfire for Red Dragon Inn by participating in our SlugCrew demo program! And now, we conjure up a tale to illuminate some of Baelfire’s more conniving qualities! He had once been a mortal man, long, long ago. Even in his earliest memories, he had desired power–to create, to destroy, to bend the very world to his command. He had pursued that power to the exclusion of all else, reading forbidden tomes and practicing forbidden arts. He had suffered and sacrificed, trading himself away bit by bit

SlugCrew Rewards Update 2025

With Jin bundled up into Jin vs Greppa and scheduled to ship in a few months, we figured it was high time to rotate out the old SlugCrew rewards.

But if you get 150 SlugCrew Points (about 30 hours of demos), you can earn the Major Reward – a sneak-preview version of a future Red Dragon Inn character! And the

How Greppa Got Her Groove On

How Greppa Got Her Groove On By Geoff Bottone Jin vs. Greppa is live on Kickstarter! Today we dive into some backstory for Greppa, a bard ready to rip you apart with her gift of gab! The normally staid atmosphere of Chatelaine Vecklah’s School for Debonair Misses was abuzz with properly restrained excitement. For the next two days, the school would play host to the Miss Greyport pageant show, and dozens of young ladies had descended on the school to participate. Anyone who happened to wander the hallways of the school would be confronted with a dazzling array of gravity-defying

Tales is Getting a Reprint!

Tales had a very good year! We released Tales from the Red Dragon Inn last year to much acclaim, and with much acclaim came much selling…and now the first printing has gone out-of-stock. So it’s time for a reprint! The second printing will be functionally the same as the original (why mess with a good thing?), but it will include some quality-of-life improvements and a small handful of typo fixes. ‘I backed the first one, why should I care?’ Well, beloved SlugFan, we have some component upgrades we think you’ll really like, including new miniatures, an upgrade kit with the
