Ages since I posted last...

Been out of the loop for a while. Not posted on my blog and only followed a few in last few months. To be honest, part of the reason I took a break was Blogger was having wayyyy to many issues for me to want to deal with. So gonna give it a shot again and see if this works a little better this time around.

Your in Carcosa now...

So I have to box up all my customizing supplies in preparing to move, and probably won't get around to sharing the Carcosa custom action figures I had been working on, so here is a sneak peak...
These two are based on Kelvin Green's art, that he made for Fight On #4.

Carcosa inspired custom action figures!

Carcosa Calendar Revisited.

So I have been programming lately. Nothing spectacular. Just giving the old DARKBASIC PRO a try again. Made some character, npc, and monster generators, plus working on a few mapping programs.
Though few months back I had forgotten that I had written up a Celestial Events program.
It assumes that at year zero there was some crazy alignment of all the planets in the system, the two suns and both moons of carcosa. From there it calculates when moons are new/full, when planets are aligned and when the secondary sun in my campaigns is either eclipsing or being eclipsed by the primary sun.
(Decided each month represents an eclipse phase of the suns.)
I set it to do a print up of the year 1138... Ya I know, but it was the first big number that came to mind.

As was commented on my earlier Calendar post, it's true. Most players won't care about such things. Though I do have a couple who love this stuff.

This gives me a chance to prepare weird events triggered by celestial alignments.

That would be normal on Carcosa...

This would be normal on Carcosa...
That said, I am tempted to make my own version of this to use as a lawn ornament. To hell with your lawn gnome!

Inspired by Role-Player Hater's blog post.

A few months back I had read E. M. Lamb's blog (Role-Player Hater), discussing his participation in S.P.'s (How to Succeed in RPGs or Die Trying) Carcosa game.
Quote:
"First store we walk into has a dog, except we all kind of forgot we were playing Carcosa. It was more like a praying mantis the size of a dog, but instead of the normal mantis head, it was a baby’s. Yeah, it’s Carcosa."

I felt like drawing this morning so figured I would give it a shot.
