I’ve mentioned before that I like including helpful undead in my Mörk Borg games as a sort of curve ball tossed at the players.
But I also like making them the most *cheerful* NPCs the player’s meet. That just feels right to me. The worst has already happened, they’re dead. They’re now outside […]

We continued to explore the shrunken castle, until its wizard master suddenly returned home. It seems the homunculus was fibbing about the wizard being a prisoner of the faerie dragon.

The Evolved Edition of the Alien RPG looks cool. I’ve played and enjoyed the previous edition. But despite owning quite a bit for it, I haven’t yet run it myself, which is why I’m not rushing out to get the new version.
