It's the end of the month which means EN5ider has two new articles! This time we've got all the prestige classes ranging from the simple assortment of 9 unique roles in ZEITGEIST to the Paradigm for adventurers destined to become iconic legends among their peoples.
Today’s post in Mythological Figures focuses on another truly badass woman warrior from the east, this time in Japan with the feared samurai Tomoe Gozen!
Today's entry on EN5ider addresses an oft-overlooked aspect of the typical campaign: how an adventuring group's reputation can have a nuanced impact on them and the world at large. The Marks of Renown optional rules introduce several different kinds of marks—Evil, Honor, Ingenuity, Magic, Nature, Power, Righteousness, and Skullduggery—that every member of the party can use, each with their own benefits and drawbacks to make for an intriguing new element ripe for inclusion at any game table! By Andrew Engelbrite; illustrated by Indi Martin.
Another modern tale from the British Isles is today’s entry in Epic Monsters as we head to Scotland for one of the only myths that gives it all away with the creature’s name: Nessie the Loch Ness Monster!
As we usher in a new year EN5ider is adding a new type of article to the mix: Intriguing Organizations. These cadres of villains, heroes, or monstrous misfits bring a variety of different themes to your gaming table starting off with an enigmatic cult of superlative mathematician-inventors, The Esoteres! By Quinn Callahan. Art by Phil Stone and Claudio Pozas.
In today’s Epic Monsters post we’re going after the feared beast of the lower North American desert, that eater of goats and terror in the night known to man as the Chupacabra!
We’ve got likely the most contemporary entry that Mythological Figures will ever have but someone we’d be behooved not to address. It is of course the Black Monk: Grigori Rasputin!
In Mythological Figures today we’re headed after a person that is more popular in terms of ancient Western mythologies than probably anyone else: Odysseus/Ulysses!
In our entry for Epic Monsters today we’re looking at a common motif in European folklore that didn’t really get its footing until The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I’m talking of course about the Headless Horseman!
Mythological Figures once again heads to the far east, this time considering one of the best known figures in all of recorded history, a person with teachings that still have influence today more than a century after their time: Confucius!
Today’s Epic Monster is probably my all-time favorite entry in the series because honestly how could it be anything else? I’m talking of course about the deadliest beast in all of Australia, the vicious creature from the bush: DROP BEARS!
In today’s Mythological Figures entry we’re going after probably the only forged *cough cough* individual on the list: Talos, the metal man of ancient Crete!
