The Tiny Tome of Tablecraft Tips; Tips and Tactics for the Talented GM

Small Book, big help. The Tiny Tome of Tablecraft Tips is a pocket-sized reference book for referees. In this small book, you will find 50 topics and 150 tips designed to help GMs take their game to the next level.

Read one random entry at a time, as daily advice, or keep it as a reference book at your table for a quick peek during your game.

Floating Grave

In the darkness of a sunless sea, the shattered corpses of old sailing ships form a small island, where death lurks around every corner. Defeat the undead and undo the dark ritual that has given rise to the…

Designed as a quick piece of drop-in content for campaign filler or a light one-shot, this dungeon delve for a party of 2nd level adventurers includes:

  • A dungeon map in print and VTT resolutions
  • Adventure hooks to get you started
  • Location descriptions
  • Encounter options
  • Monster statblocks
  • Custom tokens for print (cut files included!) and VTT

Quirked Lands

The Quirked Lands are a set of mostly flora and weather that have been magically influenced. They can be used to add texture to a world, creating interesting encounters during overland travel without relying on monster encounters. The provided mechanics are 5E-compatible.

The Quirked Lands include 10 Forests, 4 Bushes & Grasses, 3 Weather effects, 3 River & Mountain effects, 3 “Hints of Civilization”, 2 Oceanic events, and 18 “Minis”. The full events each contain explanations of what causes the effect, quest hooks, obstacles, a unique monster, relevant rewards, how to transplant the effect, how it fades or why societies clear it away, and more.

The Witch of Chimney Rock

Sometimes, the past can come back to haunt you.

Fifty-nine years ago, the village of Veknis banished the orphan Anistia Longnow to the primeval Forest of Legressia for being a witch. Such was her resourcefulness that she survived. Yet, she fell prey to an ancient fey curse, which feasted upon the young girl’s fears and lust for vengeance. Today, Anistia lives on as the Witch of Chimney Rock!

The village of Veknis has a problem—crops are dying and villagers are disappearing. Suspicions abound that the Witch of Chimney Rock is responsible for these misfortunes. Heroes are needed to discover the truth, venture into the primeval Forest of Legressia, and rid Veknis of the scourge plaguing the town, potentially uncovering a far more dangerous looming threat in the process!

The Witch of Chimney Rock 5e adventure is designed to take a party of four characters from 1st or 2nd level to 3rd or 4th by the conclusion. This is not a railroad. Multiple options to complete the adventure have been given, contingent upon player choice and information discovered.

The Chaos Kin

Dive into the tumultuous world of the Chaos Kin, a tribe of individualistic kobolds driven by cosmic chaos. Explore their unpredictable lore, bizarre abilities, and the boundless realms they traverse.

Included:

  • 2 pages of new lore
  • 1 new Minor Deity
  • 4 new NPCs with their own lore to add to your world (one of whom has been updated from a previous publication).
  • 1 new magic item (strangely not cursed)
