2024-12-09: Minnesota (Hex 9)
The sights along the road alternate between lakes and farmland. Scents of a distant farming operation carry on the breeze. The ways to the north, southeast, and southwest are prone to delays.
Notable Feature: Town of Bondeby (Settlement)
Literally meaning “Farmer Village” in Swedish, this town was founded mostly by Scandinavian immigrants in the mid-to-late 1800s who came in search of opportunities and affordable farmland. The town happened to be located right on an entrance to The Routes that is surrounded by another entrance to The Routes, which meant that far more farmland was available to claim than would be possible in just the real world. Unfortunately, that’s also the root of the town’s biggest problem. By being built atop a place where reality doesn’t line up, it’s incredibly easy to get lost in this tiny town of just under 2,000 people. It happens so often that the locals even have a name for it: “vänsterman” which translates from Swedish roughly as “left-turning man.”
Bondeby doesn’t have the amenities of a big city, but it does have rustic versions of the necessities: restaurants, a 6-room motel, two farm supply stores, a post office, and a well-attended Lutheran church in addition to the service station on the outskirts of town. Aside from the risk of getting lost, the town is quite safe and the residents look out for both strangers and each other. Bondeby’s location also provides a rare opportunity to rest and let your guard down along The Routes. However, it is incredibly difficult to get off The Routes here (or anywhere else in Minnesota) as the exits have a tendency to loop back to Bondeby.
Hidden: The Anti-War Militiaman
In the Minnesota countryside is a modest farmstead that is the headquarters for a secret militia known as the Voluntary Guard who want to abolish military conscription because of how the US got involved in the Vietnam War. The group is headed by a poet named Will Karlsson, who often laments the rise of imperialism. Will has a contact at a major newspaper in Vermont, and Will is trying to convince them to write several articles about the Voluntary Guard to give it some credibility and raise awareness of the group in a way that will motivate more people to join the militia group. If the party is able to convince Will’s contact to do the stories, the party can potentially receive armed assistance from 1d4 members of the group for up to a week if their services are ever needed.
Service Station: Eriksson’s
Eriksson’s is a service station that primarily caters to refueling and repairing heavy farm equipment, so the pumps are farther apart than at other stations. However, Eriksson’s takes this to an extreme, with a single pump at each of the four corners of the property: gasoline on the north side of the property, and diesel on the south side. Travelers pay at a tiny shack in the middle of the property, though the same weirdness that makes The Routes diverge from reality allows the shack to have much more space inside than the outside dimensions would allow. The current owner, a bearded man named Per, operates a large convenience store out of this shack and even has a spot inside where he occasionally plays films on a reel-to-reel projector to entertain lost travelers.
The reality-warping weirdness moves around slightly (though always within a very small area) and Per has the pumps so far apart to prevent the tanks for diesel and gasoline from mixing because of the movement. Although this arrangement does keep the fuels from mixing, there are some other quirks that come with filling up here.
Each time someone uses the pumps, roll 1d10. On a roll of 1, the pump registers more fuel going through the pump than is actually going into the vehicle and filling up costs twice as much. On a roll of 10, though, more fuel flows into the tank than is registered by the pump and making it cost half as much to fill up. On any other roll, the pump functions exactly as expected.
Items From Other Hexes
The wedding that Tony Watson (Hex 3) wants to stop is being held in this hex. Matilda Watson and Victor Pellegrini are very much intent on getting married, though they can potentially be persuaded to give up their wedding bands as a token of "proof" that the party broke up the marriage. However, Tony will expect one of the rings to be an heirloom from his family, and if that is not provided, he will automatically assume that the party is being dishonest and attempt to attack these "foul and deceitful creatures of the realms beyond."

Dream Journal 2024-01-04: A New Cereal Appears!
This one is short and to the point: Kellogg's made a new spinoff cereal for Corn Flakes. It was just regular corn flakes that were crushed into a powder and then baked until they turned brown.
And Kellogg's called it Corn Dirt.
-----------
Image credit is Kellogg's because of their product art, but I'm not linking to their website because I'm a heathen who likes the cheaper store brands.

2023 State of the Mackerel
Hello fine internet people! The blog portion of my main account has been dormant for quite some time, and I've been wanting to put something here to give the few people who are following me an update. I've also wanted to change a few things on here, so with the end of the year upon us, I wanted to put forward something to help provide some clarity about the blog's past, present, and future.
The Past: Noteworthy Life Events
Since my last official post on here on August of 2021, obviously at least a few notable things have happened in the intervening two years. Here is a quick rundown of the highlights, presented as fake headlines:
Fish Davidson gets over by a minivan and yells swear words
"Guess I'll go back to school," says local internet weirdo
Studies indicate minor promotion at work leads to corresponding minor improvements in life satisfaction
Combining a bunch of words, Fish Davidson writes a book
Yep, tabletop gaming is a thing and it's not going away
Fish Davidson learns to make two sounds at once
Okay, so now that I've hopefully piqued your interest, here's a little bit more detail about each of those items. In November of 2021, I was walking across the street at a crosswalk and was hit by a minivan. The driver wasn't going very fast, but it was enough to break three bones (including my tailbone) and put me on crutches for a while and I needed special orthopedic pillows for my butt for about 18 months. I'm mostly back to normal now, but it was a long road.
The next big thing was that I went back to grad school in an online program. I've been a student for about a year now, and I'm about halfway through the program. Whatever intermittent dreams I would have and wanted to write about have been shoved aside to make time for the seemingly endless papers of graduate work. It's stressful, but I'm glad to be back in school.
Part of the reason for going back to school is because I got a minor promotion at work. Predictably, it came with more responsibilities, but it also came with a little bit more money. I'm going back to school to learn more about things that are related to my job, but also to leverage it into another potential pay raise.
Now we get to the personal creative pursuits of the recent past. I wrote a novel called Power Frank about a superhero whose only power is that he can open any jar. And he has to leverage that power to both overcome family dysfunction and save his desert hometown from being destroyed by malevolent hogs. I'm starting the querying process for agents and hope to have it published eventually!
I also finished up my multi-year Dungeons and Dragons campaign, Shits and Giggles that ran from level 1 to level 20. Several smaller (much smaller) campaigns happened after that. Then Wizards of the Coast did some stupid stuff with their Open Gaming License, and now I've redirected the bulk of my gaming money to provide support for smaller independent creators and lesser known systems. I've really gotten into several OSR systems like Shadowdark, Basic Fantasy, and (if you count these as OSR) Cairn and Knave. Other non-fantasy systems that I'm currently really digging into are Orbital Blues and Mothership. Granted, I don't currently run those games for people yet, but I do like reading the books and seeing different approaches to solving certain mechanical problems. I've also been creating a bunch of random tables for things.
The last important creative pursuit is that of Tuvan throat singing. Tuva is a region in the geographic center of Asia that is known for a style of singing that allows the singer to produce multiple notes simultaneously. I've been fascinated by it for decades and tried off and on to learn it, but this summer I finally made progress and am finally learning how to do it. It takes a lot of practice and making weird sounds, much to the chagrin of my (very patient and supportive) wife.
The Present and Future: Lumped Together For Expediency
I want to write a dream journal and that's what this blog was primarily conceived for. Unfortunately, my dream output has been incredibly fickle and the other demands on my time (professional and academic) make it difficult to report or even remember dreams. Does that mean I'm closing up this blog? Nope! I'm still on tumblr almost every day. But if I'm not able to reliably post dreams on here, what should happen to this blog?
That's the question I've been wrestling with for the past few months. What should I do? Since fishdavidson is my primary blog and I can't easily swap over to a new primary blog to archive my content, I've decided to pivot a little bit. Even outside of tumblr, I use Fish Davidson as my basically my brand (obligatory shoutout to the 1-800 contacts commercial).
So it makes sense to keep using Fish Davidson for personal promotion and creative pursuits. I'm not going to be deleting or moving any of my old posts, but new posts will be relatively rare and limited to mostly things that I create.
However, tumblr lets me create a bajillion different sideblogs for my various interests. I've got several different blogs, all geared toward different interests. Future dream journal entries, if and when they happen, will be published to fishdreams instead of here. Other posts and reblogs will be spread across my various sideblogs. So without further ado, here are
My Various Sideblogs and What They're For
fishdreams - dream journal stuff
fishcrap - various reblogs and anything that I find interesting but outside of the scope of my various side blogs
fishability - for disability awareness stuff
fishrpg - this will be where I post a lot of tabletop RPG stuff. I'm planning on participating in Hexplore24, which is a tiny daily challenge for RPG creation that starts in January.
tuvafish - stuff about throat singing (and maybe even some of my practice sessions) will go here as I find stuff to post (currently empty)
brownstonarmy - probably won't be updated, but if you want to read a novel-length account of the entire Shits and Giggles campaign, here you go!
Thank you all for being such cool people on tumblr, have a great holiday season and new year, and I hope we stay friends on here.
-Fish

Brinefathom Caves Level 6, Week 8
6.76: The False Demilich
6.77: The Lake of Tears
6.78: The Blood Basin: Basin stained with old dried blood. Refilling it (which requires draining a medium creature or equivalent) causes the wall the basin is on to swivel, opening a one-way secret door for one dungeon turn. Empty.
6.79: The Hot and Cold Doors: Southern half of the room is bitingly cold, northern is baking hot. Metal slab doors only stay open as long as they maintain the opposite temp (hot for southern and cold for northern). Empty.
6.80: The Heavy Weapons
6.81: The Infernal Escape
6.82: The Hanging Doors: Walls painted with frescoes of hanged pirates. Gibbet extends between northern and western doors, which have no keyhole or handles. If a corpse is hung from the gibbet’s noose (regardless of whether it was killed by the noose or not) the door that it faces opens. Empty.
6.83: The Truthful Guards
6.84: The Frozen Leviathan
6.85: The Truthful Dead: Floor carved with runes: zone of truth on entire room. Corpses of two anchor devils who appear to have frozen to death. Empty.
6.86: The Wall of Masks: Northern wall completely covered in devil masks that laugh and jeer when mortals approach them. Ten of the masks conceal buttons, which, if pressed in the correct sequence, open the secret door to 6.87. Only Ukarith knows the correct order, (1-6-8-5-4-9-7-10-3-2) but it can also be gleaned from touching the ice in 6.84. A creature who presses the buttons in the incorrect order must succeed at a Wisdom saving throw or fall prone and become incapacitated and unable to stand for one minute as they’re wracked with laughter. Empty.
6.87: Ukarith's Secret Shrine
6.88: The Tree of Hearts' Desire
(Non-key rambling under cut)
Aaaaand that's a wrap for 2024! Thank you to everyone who supported this project, especially @aranov, @bcswowbagger Decoder13 (no tumblr) @fishdavidson, @lunaofthemiste, @skinslip, @spewagepipe. Your comments, ideas, playtesting, etc. mean the world to me, and you made doing this much more rewarding.
I should have a post about what's next for the caves up in a day or two. Happy new year, mateys!

Infernal General Summoning Cards
Gifted to the party by the Lord of the Nine Hells himself, each of these cards allows a single Infernal General to be summoned to aid the party. Each card bears a different image, indicating who it will summon.

This is less of a direct adventure request, but do you have any advice about running mass combat (like >100 monsters) for high level players while still balancing speedy actions and keeping the tension on the players?
Alright, not to sound glib but... don’t?
I understand the desire to have battles against overwhelming numbers of foes, but the baseline d&d combat is already grindy as hell and unless you’re at the top of your DM game its hard to run large numbers of enemies without turning it into a complete slogfest. I’ve had experience with this on both sides of the screen and let me tell you nothing puts you off “mass combat” like the DM deciding that 200 zombies are actually a really good idea for an encounter and the party then sitting down for 4+ hours of slow erosion against foes that are literally interchangeable.
The best encounters are ones that have interesting mechanics that the party explores as the rounds progress, and ones that are tied in with foes the party has some relationship with.
If you DO want to beef up the numbers of enemies in a regular encounter without slowing down the game:
Create mobs by using level appropriate stats for opponents, making them take up more space and give them a swarm attack to simulate getting ganged up on by a bunch of mooks. That way in the battle with the goblin king, you can simulate the fighter getting dogpiled by 20 goblins without having to add 20 more steps to the initiative order.
Be sure to intersperse these mob opponents with normal, sttated out baddies, as chopping through mobs gets boring sometimes and people like to choose targets tactfully.
If epic, LOTR style battles are what you’re after:
Try searching for mass battle rules online until you find something you like.
Matt Coville has some well thought out ideas on the subject,
As do the folks at legendary games
Worse comes to worse, find a simple army skirmish game and run that as a warfare minigame in your own campaign.
If you want my quick and dirty solution to playing out warfare:
Have the uints on the battlefield represented by the stats of one NPC, so a group of knights is represented by a single knight, a group of scouts by a single ranger, etc. Make the battlemap a larger scale than you normally would. ( 50ft rather than 5ft) and just run combat like you normally would, but with these simplified characters.
Hell, if you really wanted to make it a campaign subsystem, represent better supplying and equipping your troops by “ leveling up” your npcs, and give your party knowledge of just what their mustered forces are like.

2024-12-17: Arizona (Hex 17)
Greenish gray chaparral on hills and mountainsides forms the dominant feature of the landscape. The scent of smoke from a wildfire lingers on the breeze, though neither smoke nor flames are visible.
Notable Feature: The Flying Schoolbus (Dungeon)
Medium Dungeon, 12 areas
A bus belonging to Arizona State University is parked in the air, floating about 30 feet off the ground above the shoulder of the highway. With a combination of ingenuity and/or climbing utility poles, the bus's main door is reachable.
Two few years ago in 1964, the Arizona State University Sun Devils basketball team was late to an away game. When they arrived, the team played as a shell of their former selves and everyone seemed to have a worrying amount of memory loss that year. Most folks chalked it up to the team experimenting with drugs from hippies, but that wasn't the case.
Instead, the team passed through The Routes at the exact moment a malevolent but incorporeal entity that Christian theology would describe as a devil passed through the area. For a brief moment, the bus of athletes and the devil merged. This devil took most of the memories of the team to create a physical form for itself, while the actual team eventually left The Routes and didn't do too well at basketball that year.
The floating bus is the form that the devil took, and until the devil relinquishes that body, it cannot leave this part of The Routes. Inside the bus is a hellish cavern that is much larger on the inside than it should be. Each row of seats is a separate area, as is the driver's area and the emergency exit. Forcing open the emergency exit at the back of the bus from the inside will cause the devil to lose control of the bus and disappear (anyone inside the bus when this happens will appear on the roadside). Unfortunately, the dungeon is prowled by weird amalgamations of basketball players who want to stop the "opposing team" from making it to the back of the bus. These basketball players vary widely in appearance, though every one has a similar maroon and gold uniform and their face emits a blinding light that resembles the surface of the sun.
Successfully evicting the devil from The Routes will cause the memories to return to the team and turn them into a powerhouse of athletics once again. As a reward, the party will get season tickets to any ASU Sun Devils game and also gain the ability to borrow buses from the school for only the cost of gas.
Service Station: Tired All The Time
Most of the money generated by this service station comes from tire sales. Nearly any type of tire a vehicle might need can be found at Tired All The Time. Flat tires can also be patched here, but serious mechanical issues will need to be tended to elsewhere.
In addition to tires (and fuel), this shop is also home to "The Country's Blackest Coffee" which tastes foul but it'll keep someone awake for 1d4+1 days. Other stimulants of varying degrees of legality are also available for purchase.
Items From Other Hexes
The Arizona Guard unit that Butch Henderson (Hex 16) owes money to is located nearby, though reaching their location requires leaving The Routes. Anyone who Butch owes money to can be paid off, but dealing with the AWOL situation is going to be much harder.

@lithyena @gutterpunktrash @fishdavidson
some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

Dream Journal 2024-01-26: New Concoctions By Fish Davidson!
It's been a long time since I had a dream-based invention, but before we get to the explanation of this thing, let's talk about the
Dream Fragments
I was eating nachos, but instead of jalapenos to go with my sour cream, cheese, and beans, there were tiny cats. Completely normal (and alive) cats, except each one was no larger than my thumbnail. I thought it was unusual to eat them, but those were the nachos I had at hand and I wasn't going to let them go to waste.
Main Dream: Behind The Scenes Of Nissan's New Commercial
Note: the videos in this post have flashing/strobing effects.
The entirety of this dream was basically an in-depth look at a commercial for a new car by Nissan. The car is not important, and I recall pretty much nothing about the car other than it being a sedan that looked like any other modern sedan, and I think it was red.
What is important is the practical effects the commercial employed for the vaguely sci-fi bits (because cars can't be cutting edge without being from The Future). There was a white room that textured with lines of filaments the thickness of uncooked spaghetti noodles, and inside this room was a pedestal with a circular holographic projector on top that broadcast the headshot view of some alien from outer space who looked like a cross between a dog and a stag.
Instead of using a guy in a costume for the alien, the commercial used a special zoetrope to provide the animation for the alien's speech. The original zoetrope used a sequence of still images arranged in a strip that in turn spun around a cylinder to give the illusion of movement. Here's a video that describes a newer variety of zoetrope (though there is a discussion and example of the original zoetrope at the 1-minute mark of the video).
youtube
The variety of zoetrope that the commercial creatives used was a step beyond the ones show in the prior video. Instead of using multiple rotations of the cylinder/platter to show a repeating animation, the commercial used multiple nested platters that could rotate independently of each other and could also rotate in different directions.
You can hopefully understand how the device is constructed by looking at my crudely-drawn diagram in the header image of this post. I drew a dog instead of an alien because it wouldn't look anything like it did in the dream, and most people can intuitively recognize a poorly-drawn dog.
Apparently I was one of the people who worked on the commercial, because I had a lot of access to the props and stuff on the set. I spent a long time playing with the zoetrope, too, which is how I was able to recall its construction.
Each platter contains variations of a different part of the alien's head. The outermost platter contains different positions for the alien's mouth, lips, and tongue. The middle platter contains a smaller number of positions that account for blinking and small movements of the upper/lower eyelid. On the smallest platter is the back part of the head and it controls small movements in the position of the ears.
Because each platter is controlled by motors that can rotate forward or backward, it can play play an animation of effectively unlimited duration as long as you can move the platters into position quickly (and precisely) enough. The "holographic projector" was really this special zoetrope, and it was controlled in such a way that the movement of each platter made it look like the alien was talking about wanting to purchase the car (though the actual dialog would presumably be added during post-production). It gave the alien a cool stop-motion look when the platters were spinning.
Lastly, the final version of the commercial used Powerman 5000's song, "When Worlds Collide" as its soundtrack. My wife happened to have that song as her alarm when the dream was happening, but it was muffled by the bedsheets and didn't wake me up immediately. Instead, the song just crept seamlessly into the dream. Below is the official music video for that song, which I'm including because it's a good song and also because I forgot it had sci-fi and aliens in it.
youtube
Nissan, if you're reading this, I am willing to license this technology to you. Call me and let's talk.

Dream Journal 2021-08-18: Be Careful What You Wish For!
For three people in a dying town on a sweltering summer day, things are about to take a drastic turn. None of them have names that I can recall, though there were two men and a woman, and all appeared to be somewhere in their early twenties. The guy who kick starts the plot into gear is living in a house with a broken air conditioner and an overgrown driveway. His next door neighbor has an old limousine resting on cinderblocks in the yard, and the house across the street is little more than a pile of rotten rubble.
Anyway, this guy’s changing his car’s oil in his overgrown driveway when he wishes that he could leave this horrid town. This minor declaration of fantasy is enough to summon some sort of wish-granting entity into existence. Whatever the thing was, I’m not entirely certain: devil, genie, or fairy are all possibilities because I could never look directly at it because it was made of bright light.
One thing that I new for certain about this wish-giver was that it was risky to deal with. Sure, the wishes would come true, but there would always be a caveat. To offset this somewhat, the wish-giver offered four wishes instead of the usual three.
The first wish had a bunch of extra conditions on it so you could really only use it to determine that the wish-giver was actually capable of granting wishes. Our guy uses his preliminary wish to get his oil changed and BAM! Oil is magically changed and guy realizes he’s got an opportunity on his hands.
He does what I imagine nearly anyone else in his situation would do and call his two closest friends to come check out the situation and potentially share the wishable riches. The friends come over and they spend a wish or two on slightly more extravagant things. Exactly what they wished for isn’t important, but the three of them did learn about the need for careful wording lest you get unfavorable results.
Eventually the group decides on their final wish and it’s some long monstrosity of clauses that are very narrowly-defined to avoid obvious pitfalls. They want to live a lot longer and they define how exactly how strong they’ll be and how high they’ll jump and how much money they’ll have, among other things.
The wish gets granted and we get to see it play out... Including how it goes tragically, tragically wrong. Everything starts fine enough, though. The trio can now lift heavy things and jump several meters into the air. They become celebrity basketball players with fat contracts and leave the town on international tours.
Because such care was taken in specifying exactly how strong and wealthy the trio was, it seems like everything is good. But they neglected to include provisions that would keep them on top of the world’s stage. Soon the other athletes of the world began growing in strength and dexterity.
A few years after the last wish was finalized, everyone in the world is now stronger and can jump higher than these three. Plus there was a big round of hyperinflation, so those fat contracts weren’t worth much now. The dream ends with the trio being decades in the future but in the same metaphorical trap they found themselves in before the wishes were granted: stuck in a dying town, broke, and now everyone in the world is more athletic than they are.
Only this time, they don’t have any more wishes to fix their problem.

Dec 20: The Bloody Statue
A lifelike statue of a fiendish ape covered in red fur stands at the end of this corridor. If a non-devil creature approaches within 5’ of it, the statue animates and spins quickly, shedding some of its fur. All creatures within 10’ of it must make a Constitution saving throw or be blinded for a dungeon turn. Once it has done this, the statue attacks and fights to the death, at which point it retains its original appearance and is dormant for a month.
(Non-key credits under the cut)
