Brother-Moderatus Oleg Medoviticus, Initiate of the Third Sanctified Chamber of the Mendicant Arcane Order of St. Urias the Indefatigable, a Corpusanctian sect of the Argental Church

Aka, my current GLOG character, a church-sanctioned Moderatus Wizard (as found here: https://swordsandscrolls.blogspot.com/2018/05/osr-class-moderatus-wizard.html). He recently reached level 3, which means he gets a design upgrade.

Dream Cleric

This is a class which literally occurred to me in a dream just before I woke up. I scrambled to scribble it down and make sense of it.

Choose or generate (a magic words table will do) three single words which represent things your deity favors.

1.

2.

3.

Choose or generate three single words which represent things your deity abhors.

4.

5.

6.

Slap these together, it's a d6 table for your deity's Domain.

Next, randomly construct a table of 6 magic words. These are Gifts your deity has given you.

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

Once per day, you may perform a one-hour ritual to commune with your deity and swap out one word on the Gift table with a new random one.

You get one Miracle Die (MD) per level with which to perform miracles. (I assume they are expended on a 4-6 like Magic Dice, it didn't come up in the dream. Doubles and triples don't do anything.)

To perform a miracle, choose one entry in either the Domain table or the Gift table, then roll any number of MD on the other table.

These rolled words may be used in any combination or order to create a spell name. Their conjugations or numbers may be changed, their parts of speech may be changed as appropriate. (Fire -> Fiery is permissible, Flame -> Flammable is a little more of a stretch.) You can add simple connective words like "of" or "the" if you wish. Words you choose not to use in this way still count as dice rolled for the purposes of [dice] and [sum].

The chosen word must be used in the spell name. It doesn't contribute to [dice] or [sum] because you didn't roll a dice for it. (Essentially, regardless of how you've constructed the spell name, look at the physical dice you've rolled on the table for determining the effect magnitude.)

Pay attention to which half of the Domain die a word is from! A deity who favors Justice doesn't want you to Destroy Justice. A deity who abhors Undead probably doesn't want you to Command Undead, depending on the command. Misusing your deity's powers will result in each rolled die for the spell incurring its entry on a mishap table (grab one from the most relevant wizard school).

If it's ambiguous, make a reaction roll for your deity. This is how they'll react to similar cases in the future, so keep notes and over time you'll have a list of your deity's stances on various moral edge cases, which could certainly be extrapolated into some sort of religious text.

Class: Chainsaw Artist

(for Buckets of Blood, probably)

Chainsaws are, objectively, the noblest of tools. All lesser instruments are dwarfed by its power and might, the sharpest of blades mere scrap metal in comparison.

There are, you know, others drawn to the call of the chainsaw, who find themselves enthralled by its siren song - from mere murderers who fail to appreciate the beauty of the machine, to dangerous madmen who lose themselves in its potency. You’re not like them at all - you’re an artisan, wielding the power of the chainsaw to create beautiful art and do beautiful things, with a healthy respect for safety and decency. Capital-c Chainsaws think you’re a prissy idiot, as do Chainsaw Wizards and Killers.

Starting skills: Either 1) Natural sciences, 2) Fine arts, 3) Classical history, 4) Literature, 5) Mechanics, 6) Law

Starting equipment: tasteful and seasonally appropriate outfit, a set of proper safety gear (hardhat with faceshield and earmuffs, + protective vest, gloves, chaps, boots, etc), license and certification to operate power tools, a well-maintained, properly registered, and legally purchased chainsaw, and 2d4 hours worth of fuel

A: Power Sculpting, ChΔinsΔw Δrts B: Chainsaw Connoisseur C: Ambidextrous D: King of Tools

Power Sculpting: You’re a master of chainsaw-assisted sculpture. You’re proficient with all typical forms of chainsaw-assisted sculpture (really just wood and ice), and can gain proficiency in any other sculptural material or type of art which you can justify performing with a chainsaw with a day of practice.

ChΔinsΔw Δrts: You have the ability to learn “chainsaw arts”, special techniques performable with a chainsaw. You do not gain these automatically but must fufill some requirement first. Treat as delta templates basically

Chainsaw Connoisseur: You’ve developed an even more extensive knowledge of chainsaws. You can identify the specific make, model, and modifications of any chainsaw on sight, know by heart the years specific models were manufactured, and can psychoanalyze people from the marks they make with chainsaws.

Ambidextrous: Your skill with chainsaws is such that you can use them with no penalty in any pose or position- running, climbing, somersaulting, held with feet or in teeth, it doesn’t matter, you use them with the same grace as you would if held perfectly straight and two-handed.

King of Tools: You can use chainsaws in place of essentially any other tool, as long as it makes some sense - can use a chainsaw as a mixer, can-opener, beard shaver, etc. Also, if you couldn’t before, you are now fluent in chainsaw - both the spoken (unhinged screaming/extremely loud motor noises) and the written (chainsaw gouge marks - chainsaws love writing shitty, self-aggrandizing poetry on the things they cut).

ChΔinsΔw Δrts, list- These are special techniques you can learn to do with chainsaws, but you don’t get them automatically or by leveling. Only way to learn them is either through fufilling the requirements or by being taught them by another Chainsaw Artist.

Technically speaking anyone can learn them through the latter route (though not the former), but Chainsaw Artists generally refuse to teach anyone except other Chainsaw Artists, some excuse about being “trained professionals performing high-skilled techniques of potentially great danger to amateurs” or some shit like that.

Not a complete list, if you can think of any others you can also unlock those probably as long as there’s an appropriate prerequisite for unlocking.

Δ: Chainsaw Grease Chainsaw-sculpt a statue out of butter. Must be at least 5’ tall. Keep it on public display in pristine condition for a week. If it’s stolen or destroyed (by melting, animals, vandalism, etc), start again. Using some weird trick with the internal mechanisms, render some part of the fuel of your chainsaw into lubicrant, then dump it on the floor - 10’ pool diameter for every half-hour of fuel so expended, dex save vs slipping.

Δ: Chainsaw Light Chainsaw your way out of a burning building. The fire can be one you set yourself, but it doesn’t count unless there’s serious danger to yourself involved. You can fiddle with the chainsaw such that part of it’s fuel is caught on the chain and ignited. Somehow, this is perfectly safe - for the chainsaw, that is, not anything you set it on. Sets anything flammable you cut with it on fire, sheds light like a torch, burns through fuel at 4x normal rate as long as it’s burning.

Δ: Chainsaw Invisibility Sneak past people who seriously intend to kill, arrest, or otherwise harm you while keeping your chainsaw running, fully revved up and such. As long as you’re concentrating on making it so, your chainsaw is imperceptible to anyone save wizards and other chainsaw users (chainsaw wizards, killers, artists, etc). No matter how openly you display it or how loudly you rev it, they’ll simply attribute it to an odd fashion choice or something with the pipes. They can still perceive stuff you do with the chainsaw, they just can’t comprehend how exactly you’re doing it.

Δ: Chainsaw Knock/Lock Get one of your chainsaw sculptures into an art gallery. Has to be a real one, the fancier the better. You can precisely mangle locks with your chainsaw, while leaving whatever object they’re attached to untouched. The lock becomes either locked or unlocked, your choice - this is irreversible, on account of the lock being mangled by a chainsaw into tangle of scrap metal.

Δ: Chainsaw Feather Fall Survive a fall from a distance high enough to kill you while carrying a chainsaw While falling, no matter the speed or distance, you can break your fall by grabbing onto any nearby walls, trees, etc, with your chainsaw, allowing you to slow your descent to any speed you wish, preventing fall damage. This effect also applies to anyone else who holds onto you while you’re using it.

Δ: Chainsaw Create Food and Water Get at least 50 different people to eat food you made with a chainsaw in a single day. Sneak into a restaurant maybe? You can use chainsaw fuel as a food additive without people noticing. Can stretch two rations into seven for every hour of Chainsaw fuel you expend. Still gain full benefit from consumption.

This is Chainsaw Feather Fall, basically.

I have no idea if this fits the whole Buckets of Blood theme but it also doesn’t make much sense except in relation to two existing buckets of blood classes so.

Basically the idea here is like, reverse Chainsaw Killer as opposite exaggerated Chainsaw Wizard, emphasizing the Wizard-y aspects over the Chainsaw-y aspects.

Not super supernatural, though there are plenty of impossibilities - the intent here is essentially that the Chainsaw Artist is, rather than possessing any supernatural connections themselves, simply so skilled at their craft (that being doing stunts with chainsaws) as to reach essentially supernatural heights.

As usual, this class has not been play tested at all and it’s probably insanely unbalanced.

Has mixing GLΔG-style delta template advancement into an ordinary ABCD 4-level advancement schema been done before? No idea.

All the Chainsaw Arts are intended to be mostly utility-focused on purpose, since I want to make something with a different skillset to either of the existing Chainsaw classes, though there’s probably some overlap.

How do I make a good dungeon?

Tip 1: Have a cool idea for what's threatening in there. Something really fuckin disgusting and weird. I'll show examples along the way.

This dungeon (not a spoiler because the adventure begins with the monster approaching you) has a giant creature the size of a school bus or so. It is very blind but can crush, chomp, or smush you in a hearbeat. But's it's also so fucking dumb and big in the tiny dungeon. It's a lot of fun to play around because it can be outsmarted. This is also the least weird thing in there (there are also hallucinogenic mushrooms, and ghouls playing a wargame, and a priestess turned sentient crab).

Tip 2: Have player-bait. Things that players will find cool and want to fuck with. There's a Questing Beast youtube video where he casually mentions a room with two doors, one big and one small. Sticking something in one door has it pop out the other door at the proportional size. Think of the hijinks that can ensue from that.

Tip 3: Come up with some hostile NPC's. Not attack on sight, but ones with a motivation that will interact with the party. A basic example is the dungeon-dwelling quest giver, but this dungeon:

has a trapped, narcissistic princess. She seeks to slay the undead king that entrapped her and, upon any release, is to order the ones doing the releasing to kill the king, or else she blasts them with magic.

Tip 4: Set up things so they can easily go off the rails. Any good dungeon should have the potential to just get out of hand. I ran Barrow of the Elf King:

And the players set fire to the dungeon and had to make a daring escape against a giant spider matron and the Elf King while rescuing a lost goblin child. No good story every ends as expected!

I think this could have been summed up as "have interactive nodes that range from challenging to antagonistic, but also muck up the party's plans." But writing is all out was fun!

Exorcist

(Uses the Favor Rules as seen Here) Stating equipment:Robes, holy symbol, 3 candles, sword

Starting skill:1.Music 2.Religion 3.gossip

proficiencies:sword+1

A Rite of Exorcism, Condemned Rites

B Aberrant finder, Weapon against the Abhorrent 

C Make Flesh Make spirit ,SMITE

D Iron Soul,Zone of Truth

Gain +1 to saves per  template possess

A:Rite of Exorcism

You may spend a favor to pull something possessing a body, location, or Object out, or use the Rite to Banish a Being not meant for this world back to their Rightful place . It’s a contested Charisma roll, with bonuses and Penalties. Some examples are below. You may “spend” even while having none.

A:condemned rites

Much like the right of exorcism, you maybe instead cause curses and beings to inhabit some one, or yourself. You can set rules and parameters for the possession or curse to follow. Unlike Damn you, this can be used without line of sight.

B:aberrant finder

Gain a +2 to dice rolls to discover the signs of what your religion considers aberrant. 

B:Weapon against the Aberrant

Via getting special materials related to an Entity, and an hour of work, you way imbued a weapon to make it deal double damage against certain entities. “

Lasts until the weapon is damaged.

C:Make flesh, Make spirit

You may attempt(or use your rite)  to Curse a non corporeal entity,  making them materialize in the physical, causing physical attacks to damage them, while you can also shove the spirit out of someone's body. You can only do this once per day however, and the effect only lasts a turn(10 min) C:Smite

When you are attacking someone or something, you may attempt to damn them in order to deal double damage to them. 

D:Iron Soul

You may take 5 damage to reflect a magical effect. The wound usually appears to be necrotic flesh

D:zone of truth

You can’t be lied to. Any attempts to lie within 15ft will get a will cause the person to stammer, and get a Metaphorical frog in there throat.

ai is the next-gen search engine, but also it won't make traditional search engines obselete because access to low-level results will always be useful to some people in some instances

(idk if i got my ideas across with these mspaint-created graphics)

i remember a bakshi interview where he stated it was amazing that animations could now be made by some friends with a laptop rather than massive budgets and big teams. ai will take that a step further and enable people to focus more on the things they enjoy/do best, while outsourcing the rest to ai, which can generate "unique" "stock footage 2.0" content to fill the blanks. some people will do a greater % of work themselves, but since a lot of art is highly derivative, enabling individuals/amateur artists to tap into the Pop Culture Machine and leverage it to materialize their own ideas is wonderful. maybe it'll be like training wheels for some. maybe someone will create something entirely with ai but express an idea very well, like a new type of collage. maybe someone (me) will eventually be able to only draw key frames and let ai do the in-betweening (and i can fine-tune any low-quality work). idk if i'd use it for all background art, but it'd come in handy sometimes. and for gamedev ai is nice for placeholder sprites/audio/music. lazy use of ai will be very capable of making the equivalent of those soulless, flat, vector characters big tech companies love so much. but actual art *can* incorporate ai. to believe it cant implies that human ideas & creativity *aren't* what matters most, which gives the current intern-at-best ai models far too much credit and undermines "art." art will always require effort. (effort != time)

[hglog]

Skills

Here's a skill system.

There are four levels of skill-related abilities.

1. Basic action

This is something anyone can do without needing to roll. It's not even really related to the skill system, just here for completeness.

Example: Anyone can tie a quick, shitty knot if it doesn't need to last forever or hold up under stress.

2. Basic roll

This is something anyone may attempt to do by rolling the dice. Having a relevant skill means no roll is needed. Having a relevant trait that isn't a skill (background, class, item in inventory, etc.) lets you roll with advantage.

Example: Anyone may attempt to tie a proper knot. Someone with a sailor or survivalist skill can do so reliably.

3. Skilled roll

This is something which a skilled person can attempt to do with a roll. Unskilled people have no hope of achieving this. A relevant trait can provide advantage to an already-skilled person.

Example: Tying down an angry, thrashing bear is a challenge no matter what, there's no way to automatically succeed this. An ordinary person is getting mauled for sure.

4. Expert ability

A boolean skilled/unskilled checkbox isn't satisfying to me. I think that skilled characters should be able to spend XP and get extra abilities if they keep training, comparable to class templates / delta templates. Maybe 1000 XP per template, with maximum templates determined by your Int modifier (min 1, use psyche slots instead if your system has those).

Examples: A trickster can tie two enemies to each other with an action in the middle of combat. A spy can encode hidden messages in a ship's rigging which go undetected by anyone except their allies. A magician can imbue magic dice into a length of thread so anything tied up with it is under the effects of a spell. A fighter can use a length of rope as a d6 weapon.

Optional rule: weapon proficiencies as skills

If you're skilled with a weapon, you automatically hit attacks against non-monstrous enemies.

If you're not skilled with a weapon, it's impossible to use it effectively against a monster.

If you're skilled with a weapon, you can spend 1000 XP and training time to get a fighting style or maneuver with that weapon.

Grimoire Bandwagon + other Mage Organ-spells

Someone said this was a bandwagon so now I have to jump on it. Uh, spells, no associated wizard, standard glog rules - that’s basically it, enjoy. These haven’t been playtested at all and are almost certainly absurdly imbalanced.

Dust of Knuckles

R: touch, T: a human astragalus bone, D: permanent, until dispelled

Create a pile of white, grainy powder - a full inventory slot’s worth, if bagged. At any point, the caster can remotely manifest up to [dice] hands from the dust, and can control them in lieu of taking actions themselves. While being controlled, they have the strength and cohesion of the casters normal flesh, and the caster can remotely feel through them. The dust immediately loses all potency if dissolved, dispersed, exposed to holiness, or brought across a natural body of running water.

Ferric Craving

R: sight, T: creature, D: [sum] weeks

Target a living creature within your sight, who must save or suffer the effect. For the duration, all organic food is vile and indigestible to them - it provides them no nourishment, and imbibing it prompts immediate emesis. In return, they gain the ability to digest iron, which, is now both nourishing, palatable and aromatic to them. This has no effect on their ability to chew through metal, granting them no protection against the harm potentially caused by attempting to ingest metal prior to it reaching their stomachs, nor does it protect that organ against puncture and piercing from sharp pieces of metal. For obvious reasons, no effect on rust monsters nor on things which don’t need to eat. Instantly dispelled by enemas of fresh blood.

Dothric’s Summon Spawn

R: touch, T: blood dissolved in water (of a creature with at least one child), D: permanent

Reaching into the bloodied water, you pull out up to [dice] of their children, unless they successfully save vs being summoned by the spell. There is no guarantee whatsoever of any kind of loyalty or even non-hostility. Invented as a (failed) paternity test.

Blood to Nitroglycerin

R: touch, T: creature, D: permanent

Target saves or takes [sum]/2 (rounded down) damage as part of their blood is converted to nitroglycerin. The next time the target is exposed to intense heat, electricity, or blunt force physical trauma, they must save vs the nitroglycerin in their blood exploding, with 1d6 damage and 5’ of blast range for every 4 points of damage dealt by the initial spell, rounded down (so if they took 13 damage from Blood to Nitroglycerin the explosion does 3d6 damage to anyone within 15’), and almost surely causing instant death from massive internal damage to the target.

Frog to Prince

R: touch, T: a live frog, D: [sum] x 10 minutes

For the spells duration, target frog becomes Royalty, gaining, in addition to all the inherent metaphysical benefits of noble status, the ability to speak, ablative saves(not that it’s much help given they still have the same amount of HP), intelligence and charisma scores of 18, and a legitimate claim to dominion over a patch of swampland somewhere in the world. The frog is not loyal and serves only it’s own self interest. When the spell’s duration ends all these effects end and the frog is left with no memory of the experience, however it’s memories, Royal status, land claim, all that stuff, are transferred to the next frog this spell is cast on. All these things are stored in the spell, not in the frog.

Blood to Spiders

R: touch, T: creature, D: permanent

Target saves or has [sum] HP of their blood converted into a swarm of spiders. The spiders writhe in their veins, causing 1d6 damage per swarm HD (not HP) to the target. The next time the target takes piercing/slashing damage, or on death, the spider swarm erupt from their body, skittering away and biting everything (1 damage/turn, save vs paralysis).

Bugonia

R: 25’, T: meat, D: permanent

Up to [sum] rations worth of meat turns into bees. Resulting swarm has one HD for every 3 rations so converted, and is a swarm, so only takes 1 damage from most weapons (but full damage from fire and AOE stuff). It is highly aggressive and does not respond to commands. Stings do no damage, but make concentration imphjossible and impose disadvantage on all rolls for anyone caught within the swarm (from the pain), unless sufficiently covered/armored in which case they are totally immune.

Heartpull

R: 50’, T: [dice] creatures, D: concentration

Choose up to [dice] targets within 50’ of you. Their hearts (only their hearts, organ-less enemies immune) are inexorably pulled towards your outstretched palm/trunk/tentacle/pedipalp/etc, as if by a strong magnet. Every turn, they must either move at least [sum] ft closer towards you, or take [sum] damage as their heart slams against the walls of their chest (reroll sum every turn, only first roll counts for purposes of determining spell return, mishaps, dooms, etc). If they die while the spell is ongoing, the heart rips itself out of their corpse and flies into your grasp, thereby legally, philosophically, morally, and ideologically obligating you to say a shitty one-liner. Spell lasts for concentration, or until all targets are dead.

Blindspot

R: 50’ T: area, D: concentration

Choose a point within 50’ of you. For as long as you hold concentration, a spherical area with a diameter of [sum] feet emanating from that point becomes imperceivable by sight - not invisible, simply imperceptible. You don’t see through it, your eyes simply take the areas around (and through, if it’s transparent or not fully-coverage) it, sort of stitching them together so that they connect with each other without the blindspot in between. This applies even while within the blindspot, making it impossible to see your immediate surroundings as your mind instead gives you images of stuff further away as if it’s right in front of you. There’s some subconscious mental correction that lets you hit what you’re aiming for and move in the right direction while outside of the blindspot, but it doesn’t work within it.

Summon Demon Bull

R: 10’, T: any area connected to the ground, D: variable

Choose an area connected to the ground. In (5 - [dice]) rounds, a horrible immortal demon-bull will burst out of the ground somewhere in the vicinity of that area. Despite the name it’s not just any demon-bull, it’s a specific individual, the same each time - his name is El Giganto, he’s as large as a hippo, covered in broken spears, and attacks anything that attacks him, is making or has made loud noises, or is colored red. 2d8 damage gore attack, HD 6, half damage from normal weapons, burned by holy water and salt. 1d6 regen per turn, including from death. If it goes 2 turns in a row without a clear target it burrows back into the earth. Essentially immortal due to the regeneration, but if you somehow permakill it anyways the spell stops working.

Bonus- Mage hands (and feet, etc)

Mage hand

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating hands of telekinetic force. You can control them as you would an ordinary hand, but your existing ones hang limp and useless as long as you do. They can extend up to (25 + [sum])’ away from you, and manipulate objects, but lacking arms cannot exert much force - not enough to swing a greatsword (unless using several at once), definitely strong enough to swing around a syringe.

Mage foot

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating feet of telekinetic force. They essentially act as stilts with the middle part taken out, appearing beneath your own feet but connected to them by some sort of force - the gap between can be expanded and shrunk at will, up to (25 + [sum]) n length (or more accurately height).

Mage tongue

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating tongues of telekinetic force. They’re too weak to lift anything and they don’t secrete saliva, but they can transmit taste to the caster, with the caster’s own tongue ceasing to function for the duration. As always, they’re capable of extending up to 25 + [sum} feet away from the caster.

Mage eye

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating eyes of telekinetic force. The caster can see out of them, though they must temporarily relinquish use of their own eyes to do them. Able to extend up to 25 + [sum] feet away. Potentially useful for looking around corners?

Mage nose

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating noses of telekinetic force. Capable of transmitting scents back to the caster, at the cost of losing the ability to smell through their own nose for the duration, and can extend up to 25 + [sum] feet away. Occasionally useful when you want to smell something but don’t want to take off your gas mask.

Mage ears

R: 25’ + [sum]’, T: object, D: concentration

Summon [dice] disembodied, floating ears of telekinetic force. Capable of transmitting sound back to the caster, at the temporary cost of the caster’s biological hearing. As always, can be extended up to 25 + [sum] feet away.

Mage genital

I’m not writing this one

Discussion - Frog-to-Prince is probably my personal favorite, just like the idea of the spell itself being a container for a given identity which only exists when the spell is active. Might use a variant version for the Snow White hexcrawl thing I’ve been told to write, like as the frog prince - the princes personality, title, and nobility contained within a spell the players can find? Similar basic idea with the demon-bull spell.

potential classes I thought of while making this - bugonia mage (a bunch of different ways of turning meat into insects - actual bugonia spell i wrote here probably isn’t part of it, it’d be a cantrip but take longer), edgelord (gish, full caster progression somewhat balanced by MD not recovering like normal - only way to get them back is by acts of extreme edge - must be some level of dangerous/illega/wasteful to qualify (setting fire to a hospital, setting fire to important art pieces, beating up toddlers in public). Heartpull is on their spell list). Chainsaw specialist (twist on chainsaw wizard but leaning more towards the wizard side than the chainsaw side, like an inverse chainsaw killer. big on delta template abilities)
