An Escaron otter to watch over you

September 6, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s no doubt that Linda Lundqvist, aka Escaron, makes some incredible artwork out of fur and super sculpey. [I need him] This fantasy otter marten is one of the friendlier looking critters from the Escaron bestiary. Not one of her nightmares brought to life. If you’re a fan then there’s good news. This otter guardian […]

The code is our lifeblood: A review of Killtopia

September 5, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Killtopia is a 52-page, full colour, sci-fi comic from writer Dave Cook and illustrator Craig Paton. Dave Cook’s work has been featured before on Geek Native with the likes of comic book Bust and then Vessels.

Bentley’s Facebook says she’s an actor, singer, dancer, choreographer, VO artist, model, cosplayer and host! So much energy. She even has an agent! So there you go cosplayers; […]

Gamers have encountered plenty of deaths in their adventures!

September 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Over at Dorkly Tristan Cooper and Andy Kluthe have struck truth gold enough. These are the RPG deaths that you have a very high chance of encountering on so many adventures. I still remember [redacted]’s death in Final Fantasy VII. It was very much the inevitable demise of a (possible) love interest to portray the […]

Norse myths inspired Svilland launches on Kickstarter

September 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native has a free to download Svilland campaign demo which seemed pretty popular. The 5e setting is now live on Kickstarter, and I can see it attracting some big name backers.

Things from the Flood are coming

September 4, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Things from the Flood RPG

Tales from the Loop was, perhaps, the breakout RPG of 2017. Free League Publishing’s RPG stormed the ENnies and left many gamers in love with it. I missed out on the Kickstarter and haven’t found a reason to splash the cash on it yet… but Free League Publishing will soon give me a second chance. […]

Our final battle – a review of Degenesis: Rebirth Edition

September 3, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Degenesis Rebirth Edition

I’m trying not to buy any more roleplaying games; I don’t need any more, and especially not fat hardbacks that strain my poor shelves. But l had to have Degenesis. All 700 pages from the two core rulebooks spoke to me, in the way books sometimes do, whispering of impressive quality, originality and fantastic art. […]

White Wolf provide new Vampire 5e character sheets and errata

September 3, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Vampire 5e

White Wolf, now very firmly back in the driving seat for the World of Darkness, has a brand new Vampire shipping worldwide. It’s not uncommon for last-minute corrections and changes not to have been done in time or for the first round of feedback and questions from players to have some common elements. In both […]
