In issue 32 of d12 Monthly, I created a list of goals based on the classes listed in the Old School Essentials (OSE) advanced player’s guide. I did this with the help of Pete Lawson, whose idea this was originally.
I covered off the standard races-as-class in that issue, but didn’t have room for the more exotic ones. That’s what this post is all about.
Issue 30 of d12 Monthly, which is focused on deities and demi-gods, did just that: focused on developing a pantheon of gods for your Dungeons & Dragons game.
(I also have blog post that shows how I created my major pantheon as well).
However, there are other faith systems that characters, and whole societies, can worship and base their faith in.

The Demonic Rift stands as a nightmarish and perilous dimension, a realm where demons – the embodiment of malevolence – thrive.
Accessible only through rare and treacherous means (see below), this sinister plane is shrouded in obscurity. Its very existence is a closely guarded secret among scholars and sages.

The Necrodominus Codex is an ancient tome which was created by a powerful and resourceful necromancer centuries ago.
It has been lost for a long time, but it has passed through many hands throughout the years since its creation. And it contains spells and rituals related to necromancy and the creation of undead.

In issue 25 of my Dungeons & Dragons zine, d12 Monthly, there is an article by Mike Pike on creating random minor magical items. You can find Issue 25 for free on this site.
It allows you to create some truly special mundane minor magic items for your PCs to find.
In this post I want to list 12 minor magic items I created separate of the table, just in case you don’t have time to roll up your own.
Hopefully you can use these minor magic items in your D&D campaigns.

As part of creating my own campaign world, where all my Dungeons & Dragons games are played, I have created 12 Major Deities.
These are the main deities, but I also have fun adding minor deities using various techniques, but a great deal of them come from my players.
Every now and then however, I have the need to create another deity.

Muses are beings who embody the arts, inspiration, and creative endeavours.
They are considered the source of knowledge and inspiration for poets, musicians, artists, and other creative individuals.
Traditionally, Muses were part of the Greek pantheon, but in Dungeons & Dragons, Muses can be sent by any of the deities to inspire their artistic followers granting them the ability to create their finest works.
This can be a great way to reward bards, or other creative individuals, among your PCs.

Sometimes articles get cut from the final issue for a number of reasons, so I have decided to include them as bonus web content. Enjoy!
Alignments in Dungeons & Dragons cause a lot of consternation and there is a lot of disagreements on how to use them, with some companies jettisoning them altogether.
And I do tend to agree that the nine point alignment system used in AD&D, and all editions since, when used on a personal level, isn’t the best.
It’s the D&D equivalent of horoscopes – trying to group everyone into 12 star signs.
However, there are areas where these alignments can be useful.
