Dark•Heritage: Vikings in America
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2012/06/vikings-in-america.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Monday, June 04, 2012. I just finished reading Graeme Davis'. Coming on the heels of. Lies My Teacher Told Me. This is an interesting study in contrasts and similarities. Davis takes a similar approach. He's obviously very enthusiastic about the vikings in general, and really. Their contribution to North America to be bigger, and to be recognized. So he takes a kind of "I want to believe" approach. This is where it's similar to. Which after undergoing metathesis and h...

Dark•Heritage: Mammoth Lords vs. Totems of the Dead
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/mammoth-lords-vs-totems-of-dead.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Mammoth Lords vs. Totems of the Dead. One of my setting germs is MAMMOTH LORDS. And it's one that I've actually been very excited about for a long time. Not that I've talked about it much here, but it's still one of my favorite potential settings. The idea of it was Howard's Hyborian Age. Well, apparently it was, because Gun Metal Games totally stole my thunder and did almost exactly the same thing when they published Totems of the Dead.

Dark•Heritage: Cult of Undeath updates
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/cult-of-undeath-updates.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Cult of Undeath updates. I've made a minor executive decision, and I'm going to rename Prezov County; I'm going to use the word Timischburg, which is a combination of the Romanian and German names for an actual city in Transylvania (Timişoara/Temeschburg). I've decided over time that the name Prezov County just didn't really feel. Map at least, and like I said, it sufficiently blocks out the geography for my needs right now. The map also, in ca...

Dark•Heritage: Tarush vs. Naggazz
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/tarush-vs-naggazz.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Tarush vs. Naggazz. As I was attempting to modify my CULT OF UNDEATH. Setting of Prezov County somewhat to allow it and my DARK•HERITAGE. Setting without issue as well. One thing that became obvious after I starting noodling over the details, though, was that I had overlap I didn't necessarily want. Because why make it different?

Dark•Heritage: August 2015
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Tuesday, August 11, 2015. I gave up on two books I had from the library: Star Wars: Dark Disciple. Too bad. I would probably have liked to have discovered the novels before I discovered (belatedly) the show, but it didn't happen that way, and there's no point in wishing for something that didn't happen. Instead, and as a result of this abortive attempt to read the novel, I've decided that I'm going to offer my answer to the infamous K. Tempest Bradford challenge.

Dark•Heritage: Cult of Undeath 5x5
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/cult-of-undeath-5x5.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Monday, July 27, 2015. Cult of Undeath 5x5. Well, here's the 5x5 matrix. It actually ended up being 6x5 when all was said and done, but I do have to point out that this ended up being a hybrid between the campaign model and the module model. I think it's actually best interpreted or seen a "mega module" rather than a campaign per se. And why not? I'll need to add a few new optional monsters; I realized (somewhat belatedly) that while I have wraiths, I don't have any o...

Dark•Heritage: Borrowing from my own past
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/08/borrowing-from-my-own-past.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Borrowing from my own past. I totally ditched my old plot outlines for a potential novel set in the DARK•HERITAGE. Setting. One of these days, I'm really going to kick myself for not. Not saying that I'm going to use them per se. While at a wharf saloon in Iclezza, Ricardo and Lash brokered a deal with a fight promoter and a goblin prostitue. The details are unclear, but what is known is that at one point they ended up upside down and nak...

Dark•Heritage: Minor pantheon updates
http://darkheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/minor-pantheon-updates.html
My GM Merit Badges. My To Read List. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. I decided that "Latinizing" my deity names was an unnecessary and in fact more troublesome than it was worth, since the benefit of suggesting that if Cthulhu were an actual entity that was worshiped in real life by a "Hispanish" culture it would probably be written something like Cathulo is a dubious benefit at best- one that really only caters to a kind of philology nerdism- I'm tweaking my DARK•HERITAGE. Here's the modified list:. Esmeraude...
