Horrifying outsiders often invade our D&D worlds. They pillage green earth, gather frightened prisoners, and spread corruption far and wide, slaughtering, not rankling. Planar denizens run rampant as villains in plenty of TTRPG systems: devils, demons, and elementals among countless others. One outsider entity in particular haunts far fewer D&D adventures than it should: slaadi.
Even in a sleepy village on the quiet corner of a fantasy map, it need not be the case that every day is the same. A GM or worldbuilder can insert a fantasy festival to shake things up a bit.
Looking to add some danger and excitement to your comfortable 5e routine? Runehammer’s 5e hack might be what you’re looking for, or may just give you some ideas for your own homebrew. My first-hand impressions await within.
Join us for this month’s RPG Blog Carnival on the theme of Gifts of the Gods, divine artifacts! Please join in.
The RPG Blog Carnival rolls round to another year; please take part and follow it around the blogosphere in 2021…
The elements in the grid and whether they are in the spotlight tells me where to focus my planning; I can draft up a couple of NPCs and a list of potential stat blocks for the Antagonists, and maps etc. for any Places I might need in the next couple of sessions. If it’s not likely to be relevant now or soon then don’t plan it! But do it in a way that can be reused in case it doesn’t become relevant immediately.

As they always travel light, kor carry with them only the essentials.
In the past month, we’ve released a handful of new D&D Name Generators, including Dragonborn, Drow, Kobold, Minotaur, and Half-Elf, bringing our total D&D Names up to 14. In addition, we’ve also created a Tavern Name Generator and a Store Name Generator, and NPC Generator for medieval fantasy settings!
