I just re-wrote one of my really early stories. It’s about a burned out Star Trek-esque actor suffering the horrors of having to survive by making convention appearances. Then the Devil appears and wants his autograph. It’s posted here.
Some cosmological world-building for my theoretical “sometime-in-the-future” Nobilis campaign. I will convert things into OSR terms as I go to see how bat-shit crazy this can get. I like the idea of taking a game where the players run demi-gods and trying to apply the same concepts to a strictly mortals-only, 20th-level-is-the-end-of-the-line type game like […]
