Walkin’ in a Winter Faerieland…

Merry Christmas, everyone, and a happy holidays to y’all that don’t celebrate it!

With video gaming, other projects besides the Arkadenverse, taking care of my grandmother’s health issues, and my readthrough of Like Lambs to the Slaughter (which will no longer be on a weekly schedule; sorry, I tried to keep myself on a set schedule, but trying to tie myself to one just makes it feel like work), I haven’t exactly made huge leaps and bounds on any Arkadenverse sourcebooks. Still, I wanted to give something, so I thought to those PDFs with a handful of entries, typically 10 to 13, that are put out by various companies. And you know what? I decided to try one myself!

So, for the 12 fey of Christmas, my PDF gives to thee…

*The asrai, a graceful water spirit of the United Kingdom.

*The barbegazi of the Swiss Alps, a strange frosty gnome with massive feet.

*The baobhan sith, a beautiful but deadly vampiric Unseelie fey.

*The changeling, a sickly replacement for people that are “faerie-taken”.

*The rude and crude clurichaun, a relative of the leprechaun that gains power from magical brews.

*The daoine sidhe, haughty remnants of the mighty kingdom of the Tuatha Dé Danann.

*The grindylow, a far-reaching kidnapper found in English waterways.

*The infamous man-eating kelpie of the Scottish lochs.

*The treasure-hungry korred, a brutish and unkempt fey of Celtic lore that guards the wealth and riches of times long past.

*The nain rouge, an impish creature that torments humans during blizzards.

*Unseelie Creature, a template bestowed upon those that are marked with the power of the king of the Unseelie Court himself.

*The urisk, a tiny craftsman fey with a dark side.

So, download Winter Faerieland: 12 Fey of the Northlands to your heart’s content, and if you like the idea of these little “one shot PDFs” to tide between my admittedly very slow release schedule of larger things, feel free to comment on it.

Rappy Reads Like Lambs to the Slaughter: Chapter 3, Part 1-Wherein Psychology is Bashed as “the Occult”

Apologies for a rather short page today, but I haven’t been feeling very well, slept the afternoon away, and would rather be doing anything else than reading this tripe.

Now that Like Lambs to the Slaughter has dedicated a chapter on “the Humanist Conspiracy” to the supposed evils of education, it’s only fitting that this chapter, “Your Teacher the Occultist?” is less about teaching and more about piling blame on clinical psychology on the rise of the occult.

Before I go into this chapter in earnest, though, I’d like to share a personal story. As Read the rest of this entry »

Rappy Reads Like Lambs to the Slaughter: Chapter 2-Those Darn Occult Humanists

This is a fairly short and repetitive chapter, but it has enough of the eye-burningly stupid to have its own post. Welcome to chapter 2 of Like Lambs to the Slaughter, provocatively entitled “The Humanist Conspiracy”. Yes, because Read the rest of this entry »

Rappy Reads Like Lambs to the Slaughter: Chapter 1, Part 2-The He-Man Horseman

Welcome back to peering into the abyss that is Like Lambs to the Slaughter! After some deliberation, I decided it would be most apt to update this series on Wednesdays and Sundays (other than those Wednesdays and Sundays when I’m busy), with my RPG reviews and other topics getting updates on other days only. So, after a first page of content showing a connection to Hal Lindsay and extolling the evils of Smurfs, what does the next entry of chapter 1 hold for us? Read the rest of this entry »
