Bones of a Forgotten World

Many years ago, I wrote the Dark Fantasy of Sundrah. I labored and gritted my way through the creative pain on my shoulders, trudging a path from spark to world building. In the end, I had a method. It worked for me, and I expect it may work for some of you.

Frights and Fables: Peter’s Pumpkin Terror

The weekend had been a blur of cheap liquor, and cheaper decisions, culminating in a two-night stay at the county’s least accommodating hotel. They called it disorderly conduct. I called it Tuesday.

You wake up like you’ve been hit by a freight train full of bad decisions. Pain’s the first thing to punch in—sharp, hot, and personal. Your shoulders scream, your arms feel like they’ve been stretched by medieval torture, and your leg…

Mazes & Mondays: Elysian Echoes

Elysians first appeared in The Dark Fantasy of Sundrah, a setting by Scaldcrow Games known for its tragic grandeur and mythic depth. These beings are often mistaken for humans at a glance, but their presence carries an unmistakable weight—an aura of ancient sorrow and psychic resonance that sets them apart.

Frights and Fables: Homicidal Horror Games

There are villains who kill for power. Others for revenge. But the Homicidal Menace? They kill for art. For ritual. For the exquisite thrill of watching the light drain from a victim’s eyes.
