The Robin Hood book is one of my main resources. Low fantasy makes for a great change of pace. Edit: If you need coats of arms for the different houses, look here.

Thanks for all the support guys. My uncle is doing better although he's still in the hospital. It was his heart that was the problem. He is expected to recover. It was his birthday when this happened.

On another note, do folks choose some piece of music to represent the general feel of their campaigns? I don't do it for all my games, but I consider the theme from 1492: Conquest of Paradise by Vangelis to evoke the mood I want for my latest homebrew campaign.

Something I may try in my solo games is running a silly campaign. I've tried to run a few humorous games with other folks in the past, and they were never received well. But if I'm playing on my own, I can go to town with the silliness, and no one would be the wiser.

Something seemed to be ailing Djokovic during the whole tournament. Even when he was winning handily he seemed to be in some kind of discomfort. I guess it all caught up to him in the semifinal.

I am not a fan of of the art after WOTC took over D&D. It just didn't look right to me. And yes, the armor is so detailed, it had me wondering if the artists had a buckle fetish.

The PCs are most likely not the only adventurers in the game world. Maybe there's party they consider their rivals. What would they be up to? A friend from Discord has a few ideas.

My uncle in Toronto is in the hospital for pneumonia. It's pretty bad.

Hooray! I've just been excused from jury duty.

Alexander Zverev Beats Carlos Alcaraz It's the biggest upset so far in the men's singles. For the women, it was Iga Swiatek.

Something I'm playing with in historical and other low-magic settings is keep clerical magic but get rid of wizards. At least one TSR campaign book, Charlemagne's Paladins, offers this as an option. I tried this option in my solo Middle-earth campaign. I renamed the clerics "healers" and treated their turn undead and spells as skills rather than than actual magic. It's still a work in progress.

Star Trek: The Previous Generation

I was thinking about combining Ars Magica with Vampire and Werewolf, both of which have their own Dark Ages supplement. Then add the Highlander mythos for good measure.

Share this, please.

I'm still working on my homebrew based on California as an island aka Insula Calafia (Island of Calafia), based on a legendary Amazon queen who included griffins in her forces. I'm also working on the changed geography and adding fantasy elements, such as turning California Condors into rocs. I also renamed a couple of the major cities. San Francisco = Porta Aurea (Golden Gate) Los Angeles = Urbs Nuntiorum (City of the Messengers) Other details are extrapolated from this video:
