For more than a hundred centuries, the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne. The master of mankind by the will of the gods. A rotting carcass writhing with power, the Carrion Lord for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day.

The one time I played OD&D, the sleep spell was an absolute showstopper. Less so now but… agree that planning for it is smart GMing.

Part of the reason I like clockwork creatures in adventures is that they are immune to this strategy.

FRPG GM Tip: Spells that allow enemies to be charmed or rendered into a magical slumber can upend combat faster than just about anything. Embrace that idea, and prepare for it long before it happens by making sure that every combat encounter is about more than just the fight.

In case you missed it over the holidays, I've released my year-end look at the roleplaying industry in 2025. AI, the Diamond debacle, tariffs, and some positive stuff too!

I ran @slyflourish.com ‘a Scroll of Akrave last night for a table of new players. It went great! I put the scroll in the crypt’s library and then had a Faerie Spider from @goodegggames.bsky.social “Archibalds Almanac of Adversaries” turn the library into its lair.

Good times were had by all!

Our DM @ron88keys.bsky.social makes the players change their name on their Zoom windows to their character name! Having it front and center helps so much.
