What kind of dragon is that?

1. Aluminium. The other dragons make fun of it because itโ€™s weaker than they are; it has hollow metal bones, great feathered wings, and its maw is more beak than teeth. Instead of gouts of flame, it emits a stabbing jet of superheated air with an ear-splitting screech that can easily melt through steel. Its […]

Whatโ€™s defending the lichโ€™s sanctum?

1 – A roiling tornado of bone. Looks like a spell got out of hand; this thing has been spiralling through the catacombs for years, bashing open coffins and adding the contents to itself. The Lich might even be in here, trapped, and more insane than ever. 2 – Copies of adventurers. Theyโ€™re simulacra of […]

Whatโ€™s weird about the club downtown?

1 – Itโ€™s run by the fey, and alongside the coat-check, you can hand in your reflection for the evening as well. Without a reflection, your soul doesnโ€™t get stained from sin, so you can do whatever you wish and not end up karmically tainted by it. (In more concrete terms, you donโ€™t feel bad […]

Whatโ€™s under the church?

1 – Another church. Older, for a different religion; lots of crows, tapestries of a great and terrible crown. Roll again on this table to see whatโ€™s under this one. 2 – A roiling mass of worms. You canโ€™t tell how far down they go, or what theyโ€™re surviving on down there. The door slams […]

What’s the supernatural weakness of this new threat?

1 – Television static. The black-and-white snow on detuned televisions shows echoes of the big bang, and itโ€™s this cosmic afterbirth that sets the monsterโ€™s teeth on edge. Youโ€™re not entirely sure why (and youโ€™re not sure you want to find out, really) but getting an old cathode-ray TV and setting it to a dead […]

What are you a cleric or paladin of?

1 – Justice. And not the wishy-washy, platemail-clad shining sword shite that the other paladins talk about – actual, legal, by-the-book justice. You have an encyclopedic knowledge of the laws of the land, which is backed up by several actual encyclopedias that you carry on your back out of devotional respect. You are a lawyer, […]

What happens when you die?

1 – The devil challenges you to a game of your choosing in exchange for a better position in Hell. You canโ€™t โ€œwin,โ€ per se, because the devil cheats, but youโ€™re at least in with a chance of getting a role as a middle manager or informant on the other guys. One death mage invented […]

What are these dwarves doing?

1 – Theyโ€™re all getting married to each other, simultaneously. (Dwarf marriage is strange.) They need to find wedding dresses, traditional beard cosies (itโ€™s winter) and wedding gifts for one another. Oh, and the roasted corpse of some giant subterranean beast for the reception, like their mothers and fathers had. 2 – Theyโ€™re creating a […]
