Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
I am re-watching ST:TNG with my kids and through out, I am watching for things I missed, plot elements that could have been used later (one of the biggest complaints I heard while watching it) and inspiration for RPG games. When I watched it in the past, the show inspired many of my game sessions…
While I attempted the Star Trek Adventures game as best I could, I really never get into it. It needed more. But that doesn’t keep me from trying to find story ideas for a good Star Trek RPG adventure. I know there is a Star Trek conversion to Savage Worlds and I may explore that…
B-Movie Inspirations is a series of articles I write where I watch really bad movies and draw RPG inspiration from them. I was browsing social media when I ran across a picture posted to a group dedicated to the old sci-fi media magazine Starlog. It was a creature from some old movie that resembled a bulbous…
Date: February 29, 2020 I can safely say that this game went well, but in a very different direction from the previous session. I had four ladies in my game including my wife. While I worked hard to keep things appropriate, it definitely did not end that way. And again, as long as everyone had…
Date: February 28, 2020 Re-running with hopes it would go a different direction – and in some ways it did. Of the two I ran, this was the more serious because of the players. And I don’t mind that. There are some serious elements in this game. Playing was Heath M, Dan S, Doyle H,…

A cyboslug is a living nightmare created by the Sathar to attack all non-Sathar life forms on sight. A cyboslug attacks with a flamethrower which has been surgically implanted in its body. It can cling to walls and ceilings. Its body is covered with a reflective slime which reduces damage taken from laser or fire attacks to…
In the Underworld of Volkos, the group encounter the Mindwalkers of the Pales. First was the Teeps or telepaths that manipulated the mind of the party. Then the Teeks or telekinetics who through items at the party while they attempted to cross a precarious situation.
Uggh! I almost don’t want to write this but I am cathartically forcing myself to because it needs to happen. Star Wars was a huge part of my life for 20 years or so. I built it up in my own mind, played out storylines in various games I played, and dreamed up many more…
