Pynchon-simpsons.0.0

Lately I have been spending a great deal of my creative efforts on writing D&D quests for Limitless-Adventures.com. The sheer amount of work involved in creating original content, proofreading it, editing it, adding art, etc., is staggering. In an effort to help get our name out there I’ve been looking for quality bloggers to review our products, but nearly every blog I encounter has no means of contacting the writer(s) posted. If your wish is to be the Thomas Pynchon of the blog o’ sphere, then continue, as is my mysterious friend. However, know that by not listing an e-mail address on your page you’re closing yourself to possible collaboration, recognition, and even addition work.

Our D&D 5e content store, www.Limitless-Adventures.com just went live! We weren’t able to push all the products that we wanted, or debut all the bells and whistles of the website, but those will come with time. This entire process has been a learning curve.

What do we have to offer? Our Limitless Locations are ten random encounters for each of the ten environments used in 5e. How much do they cost? Each Limitless Location pack is $1.99. So you’ll get 10 encounters (generally seven combat, and three non combat), each of which comes with an OGL stat block, treasure (when appropriate), and three hooks for further adventures (30 total per pack). These D&D quest ideas work well to fill a random encounter table, fill the hexes of a sandbox, or just to keep handy in case your session goes somewhere unexpected or runs short.

We would love to have as many gamer test the site as possible and give us some feedback. Let us know what you think of the products and the website. Share your comments in the comments section below, on our Facebook page, or on Twitter.

Thank you! Please share our site with others if you like the great D&D quest ideas that you see.

5e Improv Cheat Sheet

Posted in D&D 5e, D&D Fifth Edition, D&D Next, Dungeons and Dragons with tags , , on August 12, 2015 by boccobsblog

Improv just got easier! We’ve updated the Oh Sh!t Sheet for D&D fifth edition. This handout contains several useful charts to help a DM trapped in an “oh shit” moment, when the players take you in a direction you weren’t expecting and you need to come up with something on the fly.

Names
Pretty self-explanatory. This is usually the first place a DM gets tripped up at improv. Your PC’s interact with a seemingly unremarkable NPC that you’ve written nothing about and for some reason they ask for his/her name, you can grab one quickly off your sheet and it will seem planned.You may also be interested in our longer name list posted a few years back: Names.

Encounters
We’ve added a few “mostly” non-combat encounters that could be dropped into a session that runs short or goes off the rails entirely. Be sure to check out our 5e Skills challenge conversion sheet: Skills Cheat Sheet

Traps
I love the simplicity of the 5e trap system. Just slap a common trap archetype on the table like a  pit, chest, rigged door, etc and the chart does the rest. This chart can be used for unintentional traps as well; like removing someone from a burning building, falling debris or a weak floor in an abandoned building.

Urban Locales
This is a list of possible urban locations when you need a business or place name on the fly. They are generic enough to drop in any city of village.

Wilderness Locales
This area works like the Urban section, all the names are generic enough to be used in any setting. Additionally, the geographic features are small enough to explain their absence from a campaign map. We avoided rivers, mountains, oceans, etc. that would seem conspicuously absent from lore and instead used creeks, hills, and ponds that will provide you an instant location for your impromptu quest.

Hard Encounter Cheat Chart
This handy gem comes to us directly from Slyflourish.com. Mike Shea is all about making a DM’s life easier and is known best for his book, The Lazy Dungeon Master. Shea’s chart is the quickest and simplest way to create an encounter on the fly. Mike was kind enough to allow us to replicate his work so check out his site; there are a lot of amazing articles over there.

Instant NPCs

These three NPCs are the most common you’ll need in village or city setting and are taken directly from the D&D 5e PDF’s on Wizards.com each stat block has a few possible quirks to make the NPC memorable.

It is impossible to plan for every possible scenario in a D&D session, but hopefully this handout will help when your players taken you off the planned path. Now when they ask about an NPC you didn’t plan for, you can quickly reply with a name and a quirk and even have stats should you need them.

Modern Magic and a New D&D Movie(s?) Announced

Posted in D&D 5e, D&D Fifth Edition, D&D Next, Wizards of the Coast with tags , , , , , , , on August 4, 2015 by boccobsblog

Two D&D 5e updates from Wizards of the Coast:

Modern Magic

Wizards released the latest Unearthed Arcana article yesterday and the topic is modern magic. The UA Modern Magic PDF (also archived in our 5e resource page) outlines content needed to adapt D&D casters to a modern or futuristic setting. The article contains a new cleric domain (city), a new warlock patron (The Ghost in the Machine), the Technomancy tradition for the wizard, hacking tools, and 14 new spells.

All in all it looks pretty cool. The info could be used to make a neat time travel quest, but if I want to play D&D set in the future, I’ll probably stick with Shadowrun.

A New D&D Movie Announced

A press release posted yesterday by Warner Brothers details a partnership between Warner Brothers Pictures, Hasbro, and Sweetpea Entertainment to create a new D&D movie (franchise?) set in the Forgotten Realms. According to the release, a script has already been written by David Leslie Johnson.

From the press release:

“We are so excited about bringing the world of Dungeons & Dragons to life on the big screen,” said Greg Silverman, President, Creative Development and Worldwide Production, Warner Bros. Pictures. “This is far and away the most well-known brand in fantasy, which is the genre that drives the most passionate film followings. D&D has endless creative possibilities, giving our filmmakers immense opportunities to delight and thrill both fans and moviegoers new to the property.”

“This is such an enormous opportunity to bring the rich fantasy setting of the Forgotten Realms to life and, together with the creative powerhouse of Warner Bros., use movies to tell the stories that have enchanted passionate D&D fans for decades,” said Stephen Davis, Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer of Hasbro, Inc. “D&D is the role-playing game that started it all and now we have the opportunity to ignite a franchise for its legions of avid fans in a way never done before.”

I remain hopefully optimistic.
