Podcast: Hell's Rebels part 3

Harken once more, merry companions, to ineffective adventuring piped directly to your shell-like ears.

A completely peaceful protest is underway, at least until we get our hands on it. In our defence, we had it on good (and accurate) information that the authorities planned to violently suppress it. Might as well get our counter-suppression in first, eh? Lessons were learned about the importance of base movement speeds, the aerodynamicity or otherwise of barrels that are on fire, and stocking up a hideout before doing the things that will make a hideout necessary.

Part three of the campaign is now up on Archive.org at Episode 003: The Mediaeval Equivalent of a Zimmer Frame.

Since getting a new laptop, I've been having major issues with uploading. My internet tends to stick every so often, and either actually disconnect or think it's disconnected. If I'm not keeping a gimlet eye on the business to hastily disconnect and reconnect before anything times out, I end up having to try the whole upload again, which is obviously a huge pain. If anyone has suggestions for what might be up I'd be glad to hear it! My ISP hasn't changed so I don't think it can be that...

Have you considered being evil? The Antipaladin's Almanac

It's time once more for gratuitous self-promotion. I mean, nobody else is going to promote me, getting my hands dirty is really the only option. And that, your Honour, is why I was in the High Temple of Fraconis at the witching hour with the sledgehammer and this wheelbarrow of piglets.

No, wait, where was I... oh yes, evil. Despite the best efforts of my family, friends and an assortment of dark powers with whom I was formerly associated (for professional purposes only), I have recently published another Pathfinder supplement, devoted to the art of the Antipaladin. The class is sadly neglected for an iconic representation of true evil, and I thought it deserved a bit of love.

So, the Antipaladin's Almanac is now released on Open Gaming Store and on DriveThruRPG.

"Continuing professional development is an essential part of any career in the service of metaphysical Evil. Whether you are a blackguard raised from the cradle in the service of dark gods, a paladin newly-fallen from laughable idealism to a true understanding of the universe, or simply considering your career options, this publication is for you."

It is 40-ish pages of lovingly-crafted evil, archetypes, feats, spells, and traits. I've created an assortment of fiendish pacts, to mirror the Oathbound Paladin's solemn vows. You can trade in your fiendish bond for a wide array of vile partnerships with outsiders of various types, from oni-powered shapeshifting to mind-shredding ugliness courtesy of a qlippoth. If plate armour isn't your thing, you have the opportunity to be a ruthless duellist (maybe Captain Harrison Love from The Mask of Zorro?), or a nightmare gunslinger firing bullets of raw malevolence. The Witch-Eyed Knight combines martial prowess with a dreadful gaze that brings cities to their knees and shatters the resolve of valiant heroes. On the other hand, you could fuse elemental might and diabolical power into an apocalyptic hellspawned union.

Please take a look!
