The Very Hungry Caterpillars & Butterflies

Short Post:

For this month's Blog Carnival challenge ("it's not easy being green"), I put together a 30 Minute Dungeon around a special place in a jungle or rain forest which is frequented by butterflies and their offspring each year.

Also, if anyone knows who created this particular image, in parody of the Very Hungry Caterpillar, I'd appreciate a clue.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar eating people.

Thanks!

RPG Blog Carnival: Beyond Vancian Magic

Hello Friends! I'm thrilled to be hosting December's RPG Blog Carnival topic, Beyond Vancian Magic !

I'm looking forward to seeing your interesting takes and contributions on evolving past that kind of magic system. While I chose this topic about half a year ago, it's come up recently on r/osr, in the post Vancian Magic - What It Is How It Works and Where Did It Come From?

Poor: a poor quality item, two notches. They have a -1 penalty (-1 to damage for weapons, -1 AC for armor, or -2 on tool use checks for items). Notches Notches represent wear and tear equipment has taken. They affect performance in the following ways: Weapons Odd notches (first, third, etc.) inflict a -1 penalty to damage. Even notches (second, fourth, etc.) inflict a cumulative -1 penalty to hit. Armor Odd notches inflict a -1 penalty to checks due to damage. Even notches inflict a cumulative -1 penalty to AC. Items This requires some interpretation by the GM. In...
