That’s so lame

This is a thing? That’s so bizarre.
Gamers! My pal Ross Isaacs — former Star Trek RPG developer for Last Unicorn and Decipher — is still facing horrible health issues and is in danger of having his phone and electricity shut off. He's also been forced to cancel essential medical procedures.

Hi all! I'm Hodag RPG. Some of you may know me from such works as Evils of Illmire, Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast, Errant, His Majesty The Worm, Conquest of Chaos, The White Box Cyclopedia, Barkeep On The Borderlands, Flames of Orion, or The BX Advanced Bestiary. Others may know me from things like Above The Stolen Crown (Lancer) or Heavy Metal: Mechs for Traveller, Hell on Rev-X, Smacked Down, Nuked!, GCW!, Bastardized Classics, Advanced Fantasy Dungeons, Demesnes and Domination, Barrow of the Bear-King, Fantastic Medieval Campaigns, Bullets and Bourbon, Beyond! The Hypertrench!, Into the Oddish!, The Unseen Spire for Cloud Empress, Down To The Wire, and MotherFlip (In space,*almost* No One can hear you cuss)!, Space Truckers for Traveller,The Wicked King Forever Hungers, Scream! Into the Void!, Hyperspace D6 or Harper's Quest 1. If you don't know me, know this: I'm a traditional black and white, pen and ink illustrator who hates jabronis, and loves rolling bones with cool people of every kind as long as they don't suck, and take the game seriously in character! I also love almost every kind of Star Wars, almost every kind of Action Figure, and almost every Era of Superhero Comics. Hit me up if you need any artwork (Fast! Cheap!) Or just wanna talk turkey about classic fantasy rpg art from the primordial era (Bell to Brom)!
A Re/Introduction:
This is as good as most maps adults are drawing for their home games.
If you want to support my work the best way is to purchase the Bhakashal Spell Book (in PDF, softcover, hardcover or deluxe hardcover):

All the funds from that go into the next two books, anticipating completion in the fall.

Expedition to the Barrier Peaks
For anyone interested in running Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, here is a campaign journal of mine from 2014 when I ran my home group through the module
We were using AD&D1e rules, and Bhakashal was still Bhavisyavani, a city on Greyhawk in the Pelissio Swamp

Never heard of that one. I’ll check it out.

If you've played #dnd for long enough eventually the MM gets a bit stale, which is why I built a generator to make an infinite beastiary of weird and wonderful monsters, and I'm giving it away for FREE!
Check out the process in this video:

Why has this not been in chronological order? 🤦🏻♂️

I love all the innkeepers of the twilight crossing, can’t wait to release the other two but in the meantime here’s Serini. She’s super cool and the artwork is killer.
Drawing of demogorgan from stranger things.
Jack’s latest. I wish I could get him to put in a bit more effort but I think this is pretty good.
I have a feeling this is far more common than we’d like.
