If the characters' HP are below 0, the character survives if their CONSTITUTION is 9 or above, but they lose 2 points of CONSTITUTION and gain 1 hit point.

This was only 3 or 4 years after D&D had been introduced to the world.

It’s an OSE style cleanup of the rules to make it easier to learn, and teach. It’s the beginning of a line of books. It’ll be based on the new CC SRD and CC which will allow them to cleave closer to AD&D, for example the Monk is being added. Monsters alphabetized.

My #ose (that's old-school #dnd but you can use it for your game of choice) scenario The Magonium Mine Murders is a zine I have a complex relationship with. I think it's good, but there are bits I'm not 100% satisfied with in the presentation. Still, I think the scenario is fun and I love Ed Bickford's cover. So I'm putting it on sale!

£5 physical copies on my Gumroad store: https://jholloway.gumroad.com/l/magonium

$2 or even free digital copies on @itchio : https://james-holloway.itch.io/the-magonium-mine-murders

The cover of the zine The Magonium Mine Murders shows two fantasy adventurers opening a chest in a spooky underground area while a sinister shadow approaches.

...I could have _sworn_ there were some "random NPC name" tables in the #DnD 5E rulebooks (old version), but I can't find them any more.

Can anyone help me out here?

Lol, I'm totally giving my research loving player in our #DnD campaign access to a very slow fantasy internet

Tome of Travelling Stacks

Book, Rare (soul-bound)

This appears to be a simple, blank notebook with a silver lined sigil on the front cover. It has a stamp inside the front cover denoting that it belongs to the Cobalt Reserve in Westruun.

This book is soul-bound, meaning that it can only be used by the person it was loaned to. Anyone else who tries writing in the book will watch as the marks disappear before their eyes. If anyone else tries to read the book, it remains steadfastly blank.

Using the Tome:

You may write a question or general search query on the first page of the book of no more than 20 words.

You will then make a +5 investigation check. (d20+5)

At dusk, the following day, The sigil on the cover will glow and make a soft pinging noise.

The book will now contain hand-written notes related to your query. These notes are written and signed by one of the archivist apprentices in the stacks of the Cobalt Reserve in Westruun. The result of the investigation check will determine how detailed the notes are.

Once you have read the notes, and closed the book, the magic resets and the book cannot be used again until you complete a long rest.

If you open the book too early (that is to say before the sigil glows and chimes) the magic resets and you will not get the results of your query, and you may not use the book again until you complete a long rest.

hat tip to @toddlyons for the link. I wanted to add a comment to this excellent run down of the OGL and the industry. However, it gets one point wrong.

"But, there’s a reason that Creative Commons hasn’t caught on further: you have to either be committed to releasing your entire content into the Creative Comments ... or you have to carefully construct an SRD for each publication so that you only release certain content"

This is false. And this falsehood seems to have spread far and wide like an ear worm. To clarify, you can specify what is and is not under the license. It is your work, you can delineate it however you want.
