Dramatic Swords and orcery

The Prison Blade is a fast paced and exciting fantasy novel about a young noblewoman who takes possession of a magical sword in her family's reliquary, a sword which is the prison of a disembodied demi-god who then seeks possession of her, body and soul. A spell by her sorcerer brother temporarily saves her from that fate, but she and the demi-god must now share her existence and he is bent upon breaking the spell and assuming complete control that he may re-enter the material world once again. Orielle must find a way to break this unholy union which has earned her the title of the Mad Lady of Verendii because no one but her is able to see the ancient spirit with whom she must contend daily. But ancient evil powers are arising in her kingdom, and even as a band of stalwart heroes gathers around her, Orielle faces a startling revelation; could it be that Everie, the lord within the Prison Blade, is the only one with the power to defeat the gathering Shadow?

Blueholme Prentice Fantasy Role Playing Game

I am most happy to recommend that visitors to the Mazes try the exciting new Blueholme Prentice Rules published by Dreamscape Designs! I own three copies of the Prentice Rules and intend to use them to run a game for some young people; BPR is a great rule set for introducing new players to fantasy gaming or for old hands who want a system that lets you just play and not be constantly referring to a rulebook. The rules realy are that simple. BPR is a tabletop fantasy roleplaying game crafted in the spirit and memory of the 1977 Basic Dungeons and Dragons Game by the late Dr. Eric Holmes. Blueholme captures the simplicity and unique pulp fantasy flavor of early D&D in a lovingly designed illustrated manual. Click the picture to visit Dreamscape Designs website and learn about all of the exciting and easy to learn Blueholme gaming resources. Blueholme was designed by Michael Thomas and is supported by the soon to be released Campaign adventure known as the Necropolis of Nuromen, featuring a dungeon originally designed by yours truly!
