Long ago, someone (probably a drunk someone) looked at one of those giant spiders ubiquitous in fantasy settings and thought to themself, "I could probably ride that."
And the rest is history.

These are the collected tales of the people of Blackswamp. Each chapter is a "bite-size" short story capable of standing on its own, though all of them ultimately connect.

Expect adventures, misadventures, casual background queerness, and an unusual profusion of giant arthropods.

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.

Monsters of the Week

18 parts Complete

Give a min-maxed adventuring party a dragon in the dungeon, or some orcs, or even a green slime, and they'll be pretty sure how to respond; but there are other monsters in the manual, and if you pull them out of the dungeon and into the present day, who knows how more normal people would react -- or if they'd even be able to recognize them for what they are. A once-a-week project originally published in 2015, Monsters of the Week takes randomly-selected entries from the AD&D Second Edition Monstrous Manual and re-stages them in new environments -- stone giants in the remote Pacific, a cockatrice in an exclusive hotel in Andorra, gelatinous cubes helping detectives in the future -- for thirteen stories of fantasy, horror, and the generally weird, now freely available, as originally intended, for the first time. This silo collects only the 13 stories of the original run; it does not include the bonus material available in the Amazon collection http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AX22RVY .
