Disco Cube (Monstrous)

Stolen from Mister RPGPundit, 5e version. Normal and monstrous. My PCs had fun with this, they actually didn’t kill it because they thought it was too cool to kill! (cue 1970s disco music). A disco cube is a mutated gelatinous cube that uses music to trap its prey. Normal Disco Cube Disco Cubes are gelatinous […]

EQ Befallen Conversion Notes (5e)

My PCs found the equivalent of a VR machine on the “Skyfortress of the Space Wizards” (my homebrew mega-dungeon) and loaded up “EverQuest 40k”. It’s an excuse to play new characters in a new world. Here are my conversion notes from 3e to 5e. I tried to retain some of the idiosyncrasies of the third […]

How to be a BOSS as a D&D Monster

I read the Glatisant whenever it comes in each month, creating a backlog of “to read” material that I work through over the next month (or two). A recent post about boss monsters (powerful solo encounters for any edition of D&D but specifically talking about 5e) from Rotten Pulp was pretty good. I was writing […]
