Well THAT was fun! This was the first thought I had after running my very first Dungeon World game last night. The players seemed to really enjoy themselves, and in fact said as much after the game. We were smiling and laughing a lot. The Setup I started the game by placing out a small… Continue reading Dungeon World, Game 1
Dungeon World, Game 1 Prep
Tens days have passed since I first dove into Dungeon World, a game that everyone seemed to be talking about. I quickly became excited myself – so much so in fact that I’ve already created a game accessory for it (check out my Dungeon World Debility Cards here). I knew immediately on day 1 that… Continue reading Dungeon World, Game 1 Prep
Dungeon World Debility Cards
In Dungeon World, there are a number of ways for players to become “debilitated”, for which one or more of their attributes (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma) can take a penalty to its modifier of -1 (the actual “Score” remains unaffected). UPDATE: June 12, 2013 – Debility names added (Weak, Shaky, etc) I’ve… Continue reading Dungeon World Debility Cards
Weem Discovers Dungeon World
TL;DR – I am very excited about Dungeon World after looking into it thoroughly recently. I recommend checking out it by starting with the Dungeon World guide located here on their official website. During the Summer of 2012, yet another RPG Kickstarter began for a game called “Dungeon World”. In looking it over again (here)… Continue reading Weem Discovers Dungeon World
Vorpal Games Logo Attempt
Matt and Brian James recently started up a digital print and RPG publishing company called Vorpal Games (more info here on the Vorpal Games Facebook page). While checking out the limited details they had there (it’s early, you know) I saw their very interesting logo done by Erik Nowak (@eric_nowak) and, as it sometimes happens,… Continue reading Vorpal Games Logo Attempt
Blank White Character Sheets
I love character creation… well, I should say, I think most of us love character creation. Something about those moments/days/weeks of planning and imagining the future of a character… it’s inspiring. I often find I’m best inspired (while creating my character) when I simply use a blank white sheet of paper. There are no lines… Continue reading Blank White Character Sheets
Reddit Map Update
Today “reltastic” posted a black and white map over on Reddit, and added room numbers to it that I felt inspired to drag into Photoshop and color/tweak. Here is the original… And here’s my update of it… Often times, I start from scratch and using the map/drawing as inspiration I re-create the concept brand new.… Continue reading Reddit Map Update
The World That Never Was
Every once in a while I read, hear or see something that inspires creativity within me. Sometimes I express this creativity through writing, but often it’s through images, such as those that I made in Photoshop. Tonight, Scott Rehm (aka The Angry DM aka @theangrydm) posted a cover image for his Pathfinder campaign seen here…… Continue reading The World That Never Was
The [Not So] Lazy Dungeon Master
I don’t really do traditional reviews. I am one of those “if you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything” kind of guys when it comes to my online activities. Traditional reviews generally demonstrate the good AND bad aspects of a product in a way I never really felt fit to do. I… Continue reading The [Not So] Lazy Dungeon Master

I have a new(ish) series on YouTube! It’s called “Weem plays… Don’t Starve” and features me playing… well, Don’t Starve! The series follows me as I explore the beta version of this exciting new game. If you enjoy survival games, you would likely enjoy this game! Here is the first video in the series, or… Continue reading Don’t Starve, YouTube Series!
