The Medieval-Authentic Bestiary

Lion & Dragon contains a bestiary chapter, which has 40 different entries for creatures (not counting 13 animals and a bunch of entries for human NPCs; and also not counting Demons which have their own section in the "Summoning" rules of the magic chapter, alongside the homunculus and the golem).  Many of these monsters have names that you would see in any number of OSR/D&D monster manuals, but their version in L&D is very different, being based on medieval lore and styling.

But I figured some people  might enjoy having a few more monsters, some of the ones that are more unusual than the standards found in the L&D monster chapter. So today I present to you The Medieval-Authentic Bestiary

In this book you will get 14 more creatures, most of them very unusual, and derived right out of Medieval lore, legend or folklore.



What do you get?

-the Amphisbaena
-the Great Bittern
-Blemmyes
-Bonnacon
-the Caladrius
-Cynocephali
-the Fire Salamander
-the Glaistig
-Gryllus
-the Fae Hare
-Hercynia
-the Hirocervus
-the Hydrippus
-the deadly Hydros


Each of these comes with a detailed description, history, locations found, the potential uses of the creature (or its corpse), stats (for L&D but easily convertible to any other OSR game), and typical number appearing.

So if you're looking for a few new monsters straight out of myth and legend to use in your campaign, be sure to check out RPGPundit Presents #94: The Medieval-Authentic Bestiary on DTRPG, or from the Precis Intermedia Webstore! Just $2.99!

The D&D SJWs Want to Ban "Murderhobos"

Check out my latest video! The latest viral D&D-SJW tweet is about banning "murderhobo" as a term. So I'll be talking about that AND talking about the concept of "Murderhobos" and how good that style of play is (or isn't)!

Weird Gonzo Organizations!

In our latest issue of RPGPundit Presents, I go pretty close to full-gonzo while presenting you with 10 weird gonzo organizations!

You can use these organizations in any sufficiently-weird fantasy campaign. The sourcebook is mostly system-neutral, and instead focuses on the organization's history, structure, resources, goals and whatever challenges they might currently be facing.



What sort of organizations do you get?  Here's the list!

-The Loyal Order of Rats

-The International Association for the Advancement of Deceased Persons

-Inter-Species Attractions Anonymous

-The Fraternity of Retired Wizards

-The Radical Anti-Hat League

-The Exclusive Guild

-The International Witch Conspiracy

-The Brotherhood of Famous Adventurers

-The Total Party Kill Support Group

-The Oligarchs Club


Some of these are groups that the PCs can join, if they want. Some are potential allies. Others antagonists. Some are mostly ridiculous encounters.  Some are secret societies, some are public organizations. All of them, however, are weird.

You can pick up this exciting book to plug right into your gonzo campaign, or to spice up your normal campaign with a touch of gonzo, for just $2.99!
You can pick up Weird Gonzo Organizations from DTRPG, or from the Precis Intermedia Webstore!
