		<description><![CDATA[This is my 5-minute sketch for Nathan Paoletta&#8217;s Thaw RPG. You can see the project at Kickstarter. The sketch was done on my iPad, just using my finger. (Man I miss my stylus! Got to get a new one.) I wanted a robot with a gorilla-like presence/posture, big gears at the shoulder joints and a &#8220;classic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in 2009 I did a &#8220;one page dungeon&#8221; for a contest. The other day I re-discovered it in my files, so here it is. I think it holds up really well. It&#8217;s generic, in that it doesn&#8217;t carry any stats for any particular game. The dungeon is designed for a leisurely one-session adventure. In [...]]]></description>

I don&#8217;t think I have encountered anything quite as streamlined and intuitive since my first brush with Prime Time Adventures.

		<description><![CDATA[The Setting The Centum Mortui are a group of soldiers ritualistically decimated in AD15 during the reign of Tiberius Caesar. The legion (XX Valeria Victrix) disgraced itself in rioting over the terms of their service and the general of the legions, the much-loved Germanicus, decreed a decimation. One-tenth of the men were singled out for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m working on my pet project, Rhishushima 3113, today. I&#8217;m excited because I came up with a recursion mechanic that simultaneously personalizes the play set. (This is only possible/realistic because the play set is literally a couple of decks of playing cards altered with a Sharpie.) Recursion is an under utilized idea in RPG&#8217;s, though [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a cautionary tale of the atomic age, featuring an island saturated with giant crabs. The show is poorly paced and has horrible sound effects.
