This book was released on 2024-05-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mega-dungeon design made easy! The Oldskull Underworld Generator, Book I: Rats in the Walls features interlocking systems to generate all rooms, corridors, tricks, traps, lore, secrets, monsters, and treasure for level 1 of a gothic mega-dungeon, intended for adventurer experience levels 1 to 3. Herein you will find an entire regional setting for a mysterious haunted castle, evoking the weird fiction of Dunsany, Grimm, Lovecraft, Howard, Machen, Merritt, and Perrault, alongside the classic dungeon design sensibilities of Arneson, Gygax, Holmes, and Moldvay. Random tables allow for thematic generation of rooms, monster lairs, traps, tricks, treasures, and the prisoners in need of rescue. The author's bestselling systems from The Classic Dungeon Design Guides, the Oldskull Dungeon Generator, Castle Oldskull, Grimrook, Tyrrhenia, and the Realms of Entropy are distilled here into a lean yet richly detailed set of creation tools following the Moldvay/Cook Basic/Expert (BX) paradigm. All of the in-depth history, secrets, mysterious rumors, and bestiary lore are laid out for you. Explore the ruined Exham Priory, now the Maw of the Skull, where monstrous rats scurry behind the walls, down through ghoulish sub-cellars, into the Haunted Kingdom of the Wererats, in search of the Majestic Domed City which crowns the Underworld. This setting is home to Arthurian warriors and magi, Death Cults, Dunsanian gnoles, Gullygugs of Tsathoggua, Norvegian beast cult berserkers, Bwg-Bera bugbears, Lovecraftian daemon rats, Ghost-Slithes, Redcap creepers, Simonside Dvergar and Tomten, Shirelond halflings, elves of the Tylweth Teg, Old Guard Kloker kobolds, lizard men of Ba'al Molochai, mutoid Lubberkins, mycelians of the Seelie Court, grimalkin cats of Ulthar, Aklo undead, Orcneas of the Grendel Modor, Piskies of the Zoogs' Enchanted Wood, Bloody Bones undead, Hecatean Strixes, troglodytes of the Formless Spawn, and much more. As the players' characters advance, they will descend from the Maw into the Ghoulish Crypts in search of imprisoned friends and family. These innocents have been stolen away by wererats to serve as sacrifices of blood and souls in order to awaken the Great Old Ones. What horrors of dream and madness rise, swirling down below? The Oldskull Underworld Generator series can be used as a set of learning tools for Game Masters, as a prep tool (create an entire unique setting over a weekend for months of play), or as a solitaire storytelling and adventure system. Rats in the Walls offers everything you need to begin. Every step of design is welcoming and guided. It is all included here, and it all works together. Another fine release from Kent David Kelly and Wonderland Imprints, Only the Finest Works of Fantasy. (64,500 words, 260 pages, in full color with 180+ graphics and illustrations.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tumbling boulders crushing over powdered bones, Death pits filled with gibbering slime, Strangling vines, enchanted lodestones, lightning bolts, Hateful wraiths Imprisoned in chests of ancient gold, Chained by holy symbol and silver seal ... Every mechanical horror, every thief's demise, Every fell contraption Lies here, deep in this book of secrets. Would you like to fill your dungeons with traps, but you can never find coherent rules or guidelines to show the way? Are your players weary of arbitrary deathtraps? Have you ever searched in vain for a system which codifies spells into magical traps? Are you bored with the "famous four" - pits, gas, arrows and poisoned needles - but never know what to replace them with? Castle Oldskull Supplement BDT1, THE BOOK OF DUNGEON TRAPS, is filled with over 800 classic traps and trap variations. Herein you will find rules for boiling mud, Illusionary bridges, amnesia vapor, polymorph traps, unseen servant-triggered machinations, collapsing columns, and much more. Best of all, all traps are collated into hierarchies of Lethality Levels, so that you can always challenge your players without killing their heroes outright. This elaborate tome also includes rules for trap placement in dungeon designs, advice on trap locations, trap triggers, trap detection, trap removal, 10' poles as trap detection devices, and even a complete set of random monster tables to aid you in populating monster pits, cages, summoning traps, alarm-trapped dungeon chambers, and much more. Every trap type features detailed rules which have been culled from dozens of books and dungeon modules, turning hidden and obscure rulings into a methodical and internally consistent system for trap design. Everything you will ever need to fill every dungeon you create with any trap you can dream of, it's all here in a single source. This book is made to interface with Castle Oldskull Supplement CDDG1, THE CLASSIC DUNGEON DESIGN GUIDE, but the integration is completely optional. You do not need both books to make use of them; they simply amplify one another. 49,800 words, 308 pages. Another classic Fantasy Role-Playing Game Supplement from Wonderland Imprints, Only the Finest Works of Fantasy.

What happens after we realize we never really do?

Book excerpt: A classic tale of terror and grotesquerie by the original master of horror H. P. Lovecraft proclaimed his Dunwich Horror "so fiendish" that his editor at Weird Tales "may not dare to print it." The editor, fortunately, knew a good thing when he saw it. One of the core Cthulhu stories, The Dunwich Horror introduces us to the grim village of Dunwich, where each member of the Whateley family is more grotesque than the other. There's the grandfather, a mad old sorcerer; Lavinia, the deformed, albino woman; and Wilbur, a disgusting specimen who reaches full manhood in less than a decade. And above all, there's the mysterious presence in the farmhouse, unseen but horrifying, which seems to be growing . . . Wilbur tracks down an original edition of the Necronomicon and breaks into a library to steal it. But his reward eludes him: he gets caught, and the result is death by guard dog. Meanwhile, left unattended, the monster at the Whateley house keeps expanding, until the farmhouse explodes and the beast is unleashed to terrorize the poor, aggrieved village of Dunwich. As chilling today as it was upon its publication in 1929, The Dunwich Horror is a horrifying masterwork by the man Stephen King called "the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale."

Using this volume, you can create an entire campaign of multiple adventures, entailing wilderness journeys, dungeons, monster lairs, traps, tricks, treasure, and unforgettable tales. When coupled with the GAME WORLD GENERATOR, you can create your own world of endless adventure and allow the Players Characters to journey anywhere. And you will be creating new realms of wonder every step of the way. Do you need a new island, temple, tomb, forest, swamp, mountain range, netherworld, or sea? This book will show you how to build them all, each uniquely detailed with their own locales and opportunities for play.

Book excerpt: Connections and Symbols provides the first systematic analysis of the explosive new field of Connectionism that is challenging the basic tenets of cognitive science. Does intelligence result from the manipulation of structured symbolic expressions? Or is it the result of the activation of large networks of densely interconnected simple units? Connections and Symbols provides the first systematic analysis of the explosive new field of Connectionism that is challenging the basic tenets of cognitive science. These lively discussions by Jerry A. Fodor, Zenon W. Pylyshyn, Steven Pinker, Alan Prince, Joel Lechter, and Thomas G. Bever raise issues that lie at the core of our understanding of how the mind works: Does connectionism offer it truly new scientific model or does it merely cloak the old notion of associationism as a central doctrine of learning and mental functioning? Which of the new empirical generalizations are sound and which are false? And which of the many ideas such as massively parallel processing, distributed representation, constraint satisfaction, and subsymbolic or microfeatural analyses belong together, and which are logically independent? Now that connectionism has arrived with full-blown models of psychological processes as diverse as Pavlovian conditioning, visual recognition, and language acquisition, the debate is on. Common themes emerge from all the contributors to Connections and Symbols: criticism of connectionist models applied to language or the parts of cognition employing language like operations; and a focus on what it is about human cognition that supports the traditional physical symbol system hypothesis. While criticizing many aspects of connectionist models, the authors also identify aspects of cognition that could he explained by the connectionist models. Connections and Symbols is included in the Cognition Special Issue series, edited by Jacques Mehler.

Book excerpt: Dee Dee Ramone doesn't quite know what he's getting himself into when he and his wife Barbara move into the squalid Chelsea Hotel with their dog Banfield. He spends most of his time trying to score drugs and walking Banfield, with whom he can magically communicate. Meanwhile, he can't stand his neighbors and shies away from violence, but wishes everyone were six feet under. He also thinks that the room he's staying in is the very room where his old friend Sid Vicious stabbed Nancy Spungen, and begins having nightmares of Nancy emerging from the bathroom with a knife wound. After one of his nightmares, an evil force enters his hotel room and hurls him against a wall. Dee Dee also gets involved with the transvestite lover of one of his gay fellow addicts. When his wife finds out, the two fight it out and become seriously wounded. During all this, Dee Dee is tormented by the living and dead demons that plague the hotel, along with the ghosts of his old dead punk rock friends Sid Vicious, Johnny Thunders and Stiv Bators. And that's when the Devil himself decides to join the party…

Download or read book The Rape of Troy written by Jonathan Gottschall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homer's epics reflect an eighth-century BCE world of warrior tribes that were fractured by constant strife; aside from its fantastic scale, nothing is exceptional about Troy's conquest by the Greeks. Using a fascinating and innovative approach, Professor Gottschall analyses Homeric conflict from the perspective of modern evolutionary biology, attributing its intensity to a shortage of available young women. The warrior practice of taking enemy women as slaves and concubines meant that women were concentrated in the households of powerful men. In turn, this shortage drove men to compete fiercely over women: almost all the main conflicts of the Iliad and Odyssey can be traced back to disputes over women. The Rape of Troy integrates biological and humanistic understanding - biological theory is used to explore the ultimate sources of pitched Homeric conflict, and Homeric society is the subject of a bio-anthropological case study of why men fight.
