Support the Troops KQ Style

KQ's Adopt-A-Soldier

KQ's Adopt-A-Soldier

It is no secret that I am a veteran, having spent four honorable years as an active duty Marine. So whenever I see programs that help bring a little piece of home to the troops, I try to support it as much as I can.

Kobold Quarterly has the Adopt-A-Soldier program that allows people to sponsor our airmen, marines, sailors, and soldiers stationed all over the world. Trust me when I say that receiving items like this when you’re deployed really makes a difference. It allows you to remember why you made the commitment and the people that are safe at home (because of your service) really do appreciate what you’re doing.

The best part is that KQ is running the AAS Holiday Contest which allows sponsors or just people who want to spread the word to win prizes for their efforts. It’s what we call a freakin’ win-win situation.

So help out our service members by sponsoring a subscription to Kobold Quarterly or by spreading the word through your website or Twitter account.

Nevermet Press Releases The Desire

Portrait of a Villain: The Desire

Portrait of a Villain: The Desire

I am proud to announce that Nevermet Press released our first PDF last week. We took the system agnostic web content for our first villain, The Desire, and turned it into a resource for 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons.

While I designed the villain’s concept, the talented crew of Nevermet Press really took the ball and ran with it, creating some fantastic encounters, magic items, and organizations that can easily be plugged into an existing campaign. Not to mention all the hard work done by Jonathan Jacobs to organize and layout out a pretty damn good looking book.

I waited a week to announce it here so I could post some links to some nice people that took the time to review our book. So, if you’re interested, read what everyone has to say about our first outing or go ahead and pick yourself up a copy of Portrait of a Villain: The Desire today ($9.95).
