Florida artist Mitchell Grafton creates grotesque “face jugs” and all sorts of creepy creatures. I love it. I’m sure describing just one of these creations in the belongings of an NPC or in a room your PCs are searching in a roleplaying game would have a profound effect.

The Risk board game table
Yup. This entire table is set out so you can play Risk on it. It’s a huge gaming board for one of the most aggressive board games played by kids around the world. I wonder where they got models of suitable scale? (Via Reddit.)
That’s no rug!
The geeky retail experts over at Think Geek have done it again. They’re selling Star Wars in all sorts of clever ways. This isn’t a rug. This is a a Death Star rug! Nope. You don’t need to dress up like a rebel X-Wing fighter in order to play on it. If you are tempting […]
Firebox brings PyroPets to the UK
PyroPets are candles that started off an one off piece of art and then moved to Kickstarter after winning the internet over. The Kickstarter made it possible to buy PyroPets but didn’t make it easy to do so. After all, international shipping is a pain to manage especially if you’re a creative talent more interested […]
Superhero Week: Avengers 3D wall lights
These Avenger wall lights are proving to be quite popular. They’re battery operated so you don’t need to drill holes in the wall and I’m told are good for persuading kids to sleep and don’t get too warm either. There’s a few variants but here’s a small collection from Amazon. Thor’s Hammer at Amazon $39.06. […]
Tabletop RPG perfect? Glass and river cartography tables
Could Greg Klassen’s range of cleverly designed tables that use the natural flow of wood be the gaming table you’ve been looking for? Klassen embeds glass rivers into the cut surfaces of discarded trees. The effect is wonderful. You can buy online, too if you’re able to treat yourself. (Via Christopher Jobson at Colossal)
The paintful pot dragon
This remarkable vase was created by Johnson Cheung-shing Tsang. It’s well worth checking out his blog as it is full with stylish and clever sculptures/pottery. I found this piece, called “A Paintful Pot”, over at Twisted Sifter which has photographs of the dragon’s creation.
Galaxy rugs – the universe at your feet
How would you like to game, read or even watch TV with the universe at your feet? You could with these galaxy rugs from Swiss masters Schönstaub. I think they’re enough to transform any geek native’s living room into a cosmic talking point that creates deep gravity wells of envy among friends.
Illuminate! Illuminate! Dalek bedside light
This is a friendly Dalek. It’s task is to sit near your bed and act as a night light. Should it turn evil – as Daleks so often do – it’s only 6″ tall if you don’t count the plug. In terms of power this Dalek only manages about 7 Watts. This Doctor Who monster […]
Hey, evil GM – here’s how to feed your players monkey brains
One look at this novelty bowl based on Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and I knew it was ideal for evil GMs. As an Evil GM you are responsible for being host and for setting the mood. This can be a conflict. You want to be a good host but you might want […]
