Ronan was slumped against a jagged rock, his clothes in tatters. His tall turtleneck and long sleeves couldn’t hide the cuts on his skin. The wounds were unnaturally black.
Ronan’s eyes flickered open as Deckard knelt beside him. His face was ghostly pale, lips dry and cracked. “It’...

The path through Gull Rock felt like the quintessential first dungeon—linear and predictable. What Deckard hadn’t anticipated was just how terrifying this place would be. He couldn’t calm his racing heart.
Jagged cliffs loomed on both sides, enclosing the team like rocky jaws waiting ...
2024-09-30 12:59:27 +0000 UTC View PostDeckard didn’t take long to reach a decision. First, he had to evaluate if he was useless in a fight. He had only fought one battle so far, and it was hasty to conclude that he couldn’t carry his weight in a dungeon run.
After getting some distance from Gull Rock, he spotted a lone seag...

How are you all doing? I'm almost at the end of book 2 of HC: Handyman, and it's time to brainstorm the following two minors Jack will take!
To recap:
We've got Pottery, Bushcraft, Beekeeping, and Bard.
What should the next two be?

2024-09-26 18:32:21 +0000 UTC View PostJack wiped the sweat from his brow, his fingers trembling slightly as he awaited the final stage of the firing process. The heat radiating from the kiln warped the air, the room heavy with the scent of baked clay and the sharp, mineral tang of glaze. His eyes lingered on the kiln’s glowing inte...

2024-09-25 16:50:28 +0000 UTC View PostDeckard was still unsure how his creditors had come to an agreement, but they'd already made their picks. Now, he was 16 cards lighter. Unsurprisingly, most of the cards were from Ratu's choice deck, but six came from [The Worst Deck Ever]. Some cards that were useless in Terralore were apparentl...
2024-09-25 16:18:43 +0000 UTC View PostThe playing phase ended, and Deckard grinned, seeing that Ratu had chosen not to play anything this turn. From what he’d observed, Ratu took pride in having a superior deck. He liked to show off big cards like a peacock fanning its feathers. That, however, came at a price.

Jack studied the statue. It was carved from dark granite and depicted Embergate’s soldiers lo...
2024-09-20 17:15:42 +0000 UTC View PostDeckard stared at the cards in front of him. The more he read the details of each card, the more sure he was: it was impossible to win a game with this deck. He was sad to say, but [Sturdy Turtle] and [Healing Ray], the very cards he'd seen being completely outclassed just a moment ago, were amon...

He hid [Pot Hive] beneath the gnarled roots of a nearby tree. The last thing he needed right now was its 20% speed debuff. With a final glance at his setup, he sprinte...

2024-09-12 08:17:45 +0000 UTC View PostJoey woke up with a pounding headache. He barely remembered making it to bed last night, only recalling Marie’s worried face as he came home exhausted and confused. His body felt heavy, as if he had been run over. Glancing at the clock, he saw that it was 10 AM—time to get back to work.
“We should... probably run,” Jack muttered, his voice barely audible over the rising sound of bats flapping.
Horace’s voice cut through the noise, calm but commanding. “I think we’ll manage. Head for the entrance—we can’t survive in the open against this swarm.”
