Epic Monsters: The Invisible Man

Since we saw Captain Nemo last week in Mythological Figures today the Epic Monsters column is keeping to the LXG theme and going after the ever unseen rogue, a fellow that drank too quickly and deeply from the wishing well before regretting his choice in the final moments of his life: the Invisible Man!

EN5ider #316 - Villain Spotlight: Jaxi the Blightgunner

Today's issue of EN5ider gets down and dirty in Chokewater swamp, a bog of death and decay fiercely guarded over by an ancient power that deters trespassers by making use of a deadly servant: Jaxi the Blightgunner!

Mythological Figures: Captain Nemo

“Not a mistake has been made in the working. But we cannot prevent equilibrium from producing its effects. We may brave human laws, but we cannot resist natural ones.” Bold words from a brave and brilliant man, an inventor of the highest caliber, explorer of the deep blue, and anti-imperialist hero: Captain Nemo!

EN5ider #315 - Gamemaster Characters: Recruiting Followers & Pets

EN5ider knows the plights of the gamemaster. When your players look up at you, hope shining in their eyes as they ask if they can keep a litter of baby snow leopards, infant otyugh, or cooing newborn drake (who will surely die without love and care from the parents they so recently killed), we want you to say yes—and we have some rules to help guide you through that process!

Epic Monsters: Antaeus

Today’s subject for Epic Monsters is the wrestler of all wrestlers, the man who can’t be beat while he’s still on his feet, the Heracles-grappling, earth-loving, skull-temple building Antaeus!

EN5ider #314 - Mini-Adventure: Cold Love

Winter has taken hold and EN5ider hasn't escaped the season's chill—a Spirit of Winter is haunting us with a very cool new supplemental mini-adventure!

Mythological Figures: Hercules

The day many of you have been waiting for is finally here. Perhaps the best known Western mythological figure of all is hitting this column with his incredibly powerful fists—let’s see if it lives up to the task as we take on Hercules!

EN5ider #313 - Intriguing Organizations: Which Watch?

We've all got them but today EN5ider takes on the challenge of making a settlement's police force engaging and varied—with this excellent organizations article in hand, you can quickly bring some character to the city watch in your games!

Epic Monsters: Peter Pan

“It’s a bird! It’s a plane!” No, it’s that half-bird half-boy shadow-fighting faerie-friend from Neverland, that lad who can never grow up but apparently can do anything else: Peter Pan!

EN5ider #311 - Magic Items: Hunter Totems

We all know those players—the second the party has slain the unimaginable horror from beyond, they've jumped onto the corpse and are working at it with a blade to pry away some teeth, a horn, or another grisly trophy. Over at EN5ider we think these folks need something to work for with all that amateur taxidermy...something like enchanted hunter totems!

Mythological Figures: Mary Read

We’ve already seen her counterpart in crime but you may not recognize this pirate anyway⁠—most people didn’t and she spent an absurd amount of her life disguised as a man. It couldn’t be anyone other than the one, the only, the inimitable Mary Read!

EN5ider #310 - New Race: Sentient Illusions

EN5ider's first issue of the year expands the lore and rules for a new type of creature introduced in a Monstrous Menagerie article late last year, providing rules for playing them as a new character race: sentient illusions! Lately on EN5ider: #310. New Race: Sentient Illusions. A few weeks ago we introduced the sapient magical life forms wrought by the Order of Sentience as...

Epic Monsters: Dorian Gray

“A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.” Which is the precarious proposition at the heart of the man, the portrait, the monster: Dorian Gray.

EN5ider #308 and #309: Prayerbooks & Scripture and Bastards Revenge

EN5ider is closing out 2019 with a bang! To celebrate the holiday season a minister in training and theologian takes a look at prayerbooks that bring a studious aspect to playing clerics, and a bonus 6th article for the month of December finally answers the question of why there are so many half-orcs, half-elves, tieflings, and other half-breeds roving about—and introduces a particularly irresponsible fellow who sired many of them.

Mythological Figures: David

Remember that fellow so often shown using a sling to throw a stone into Goliath’s eye, killing him despite his opponent’s far greater size? Me too! Apparently there’s much more to this character however, so click onward and let’s dive into David.
