distracting blade
The amazing polish on the surface of this knife will reflect any available light into the eyes of the attacker, blinding them momentarily. This is another one I’ve posted on GM Binder. This is also my 4th post this weekend. I don’t normally like to post so frequently and usually schedule posts to space them…

annoying beetle
This clockwork beetle starts curled up into a little ball the size of a walnut. It can be thrown as a ranged attack and when it hits a target, will spring to life, flying into the face of it’s target while making a loud buzzing noise, distracting the target. The printable version of this is…

Deck of Wonders
I’ve been playing around with an idea for a kind of mini card game within D&D. I want to use normal playing cards with poker hands to generate magical effects; the better the hand, the better the effect. I played around with various ways of generating a score from a poker hand that could be…

rovers’ end
Rovers’ End is a small village on the three-way border of Dwarven controlled mountains to the west, human domain to the east, and largely uncontested wilderness to the north. This was a once prosperous village but has fallen on hard times. I originally used the watabou city generator to make this map, but it’s undergone…

In spite of its age, this structure is in remarkably good shape and still habitable and is currently the abode of…

Rise up in hordes and seize that which is rightfully yours. Raid. Kill. Conquer. The sect of Gruumsh followers at the temple called…

gm binder
I’ve really been enjoying using GM Binder to write up and keep track of a lot of my game content. Much of it is rough notes for my own benefit to keep track of in game events and things and not worth sharing with anyone, but I’ve also made a few homebrew items I’m happy…

faithful chest
This one is inspired by The Luggage from Diskworld and is part Mimic and part Bag of Holding. It’s a small chest, 12 inches long by 7 inches wide and 5 inches high (not including the lid). When open, the inside is an extra dimensional space which can hold a lot more than the exterior…
