Welcome to the first of a four-part series! (Technically five if you include the intro last week!) In this chapter, we explore the major environments of Shadowglass, potential plots and motivations of the Lady of Mirrors, and the planar traits that make Shadowglass a weird place to adventure in – as well as the first […]
Hello and welcome to another spooktacular Ocular October! The ninth annual! A beholder is famous for its ten eye stalks…perhaps this is a sign? Should I deviate completely from beholder-related content after 10 of these? I already deviated a bit with my last set of seasonal stat blocks and supernatural-suffused sentences…I’ll slide a bit more […]
Hello folks, and welcome to the end of another Ocular October!This is the final entry, detailing the other two “Buried” or “Internal Cults”, the ever-calculating Cult of the Brain and the mysterious Cult of the Soul.My apologies for the overtime I was forced to go into…I must be a member of the Maw Cult myself, […]
Hi folks! As you can probably tell from the title, the various festivities and obligations of this month got away from me – I haven’t finished the last three cults by Halloween! But I am working on the Brain and Soul and hope to have those to you soon, possibly after this weekend. In the […]
Hey there folks! This entry covers the four “Manipulation Cults” of the Beast – the Maw, Foot, Hand, and Tongue Cults. Their dogma, their masters, and some stat blocks for their vicious and hungry members! After this one, around the end of the month, it’ll be time for the “Buried” or “Internal Cults” (Heart, Brain, […]
Hey there folks! Apologies for the wait for this first entry (beyond the introduction to the Beast Cults and the Beast of a Thousand Parts, at least!) It took some time to solidify the format I wanted!This entry covers the three so-called “Sensory Cults” of the Beast – the Eye, Ear, and Nose Cults. Their […]
Hello and welcome to another spooktacular Ocular October! This eighth installment of my seasonal stat blocks and supernatural-suffused sentences is a bit special to me, as eight is my favorite number! The tentacles of an octopus, the infinity symbol on its side, there are many ways the number eight has singular symbolism, so I’m going […]
Here we are, at the final entry of this year’s Ocular October! I hope you’ve enjoyed the odious offerings of this ocular author, and find some fun uses for them in your games. Here’s to another year of deadly dice-rolling and monstrous mayhem! Happy Halloween to you all, and I will SEE you next year! […]
First, apologies to anyone expecting a more regular update schedule this Ocular October – between running four D&D games a week, planning to host a Halloween murder mystery party at the end of this month, my actual 9-5, and homebrewing for this blog, I am all over the place! I can only hope the updates […]
In previous entries I have come up with a few mechanical or “magipunk” beholder variants, such as the Iron Eye or Mother Zero. But these felt a little incomplete without minions to stat up and add to their dramatic confrontations! So, below is my interpretation of a “Robolter” drone that can serve them, Magifacturing Nodes […]
