As a lover of crunch (rules and numbers), Randal is always tinkering with rules options. His love of magic users has led him to always fuss with the mechanics of magic and magic items. Years of GMing on the fly have given him endless ideas and content from which to draw on for adventures (ideas, plots, NPCs). When not working, gaming, or playing with his kids, Randal is likely working on improving Sage (his Discord bot for immersive play-by-post gaming that you can see in action on Know Direction's Discord in the Know Direction Societous PFS channels) over at https://www.patreon.com/rpgsage!

Hello, Randal here. I normally write Groundbreaking and Terraforming, but today I wanted to talk to you all about something very different, gaming tables. Every gaming group I have been apart of, regardless of the number of players, has...
Hello again, Randal here for more world building with Groundbreaking. I noticed that while I have provided a number of possible antagonists for various scenarios within our domain, none of them are outright bad. They all exist in the...
Welcome back to Terraforming, Randal here to take a look at another uncharted corner of space. This time, we look at a an adventure seed based on a planet with no intelligent life of its own, yet is in...
While the majority of the body of water known as The Pond is wide open shallow marsh, the southwestern portion is home to a flooded forest. While much of this forest is home to simple wildlife, anybody venturing into...
Randal here. Before we jump into this week’s Terraforming, I must confess something … I didn’t come up with my ideas for Gladiator Ship rules so that I could play mech/mecha in Starfinder. Fanboy Note. I am a huge...
In many lands around the world, there exist insects that are considered a plague. Often arriving every 13 or 17 years, erupting from the lands and decimating the environment as if the earth itself were out to destroy all...
